水文・水資源学会誌 第30巻 第4号（2017）change and theme D Precise impact assessments on climate change , are focused on extreme event projections
and their impact assessment on Asia and Japan in collaboration with the Meteorological Research Institute;
Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University; the International Centre for Water Hazard and Risk
Management; Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo; Tohoku University; Nagoya University;
Hokkaido University and related universities and agencies. The topic covers from climate projection in the global
scale, regional downscaling to impact assessment on typhoon, precipitation, river and coastal flooding, storm
surge and waves, water resources, ecosystem, biodiversity and their risk assessment. This special collection issummary of collaborative research and we hope that this special collection contributes to the IPCC AR6 andprovides many scientists, engineers, and policy makers with access to the latest projections of future climate andimpact assessments.
