摘要：Mt. Sakurajima is a volcano located about 10km east from Kagoshima University. We are continuing observation of this Sakurajima volcano with a web camera since December 2000. The picture is taken from 5:00 to 20:00 JST at 5 minutes interval, and archived in web server. The flow of volcanic plumes and meteorological clouds covering the summit are influenced by the surrounding weather condition. Therefore, the observation of Mt. Sakurajima is important for weather study to expect a motion of the distribution of atmospheric pressure and the front by reading a wind direction and velocity. The database for weather study we built has the following features. - It is possible to show the cloud picture of the Sakurajima volcano of the day we wish. - It can compare the weather map and the satellite cloud picture simultaneously with the image of the Sakurajima volcano. - The feature of the weather phenomenon read in an image is shown also as a text. - Easy operation. - Public presentation by a web is possible. We expect that students can perform weather study effectively by using the picture of Mt. Sakurajima, clouds data from satellite, and weather maps
