In order to investigate effects of the increase of sea-surface temperature due to the global warming on typhoon intensity, Typhoon Simulation was carried out statistically incorporating the sea-surface temperature. The incorporation model of the sea-surface temperature represented typhoon statistics better than a non-incorporation model. The Typhoon Simulation showed that the number of typhoons approaching to Japan decreased while their intensities increased due to the increase of the sea-surface temperature as a result of the global warming effects.
