Abstract: A new simulation method for solving dynamic equations for stationary katabatic wind is suggested by the assumption that the turbulent exchange coefficient is a function of height and the effect of the cold sloping surface is a multinomial function of height. Calculated wind profiles agree with observational data at Mizuho Station, Antarctica.

Key word: simulation, katabatic wind, Mizuho Station.
