Abstract
An overview is provided of on-going production of regional atmospheric reanalysis data RRJ-ClimCORE for Japan and its surrounding maritime domain. The data can reproduce the past atmospheric conditions four-dimensionally with high spatial and temporal resolutions, through assimilating fine-resolution observational data into a state-of-the-art operational regional forecast system. The reanalysis data will have wide-ranging potential applications in society, including disaster prevention and risk management planning, and system designing for renewable energy through deep learning.
