Abstract
The Shiretoko Peninsula which is located in the eastern part of Hokkaido, where nutrient circulataion between inland and the ocean is revealed to play a great role in ecological system. Because of the unique system, "Shiretoko" was registered as the World Natural Heritage. However, previous studies demonstrated that precipitation pattern has been affected by climate change, which may cause the change in the ecological system. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate nutrient flux from the inland to the ocean in the future. According to the previous studies, precipitation is consdered one of the most significant components controlling nutrient supply. Two bias correction techniques were applied by using the MRI-AGCM3.1S. As a result, it is revealed that the cdf correction techique shows better reproduction regarding the nutrient flux compared to the normal distribution correction technique.
