I would like to extend a hearty welcome to all participants. Ibaraki Prefecture is blessed with a rich natural environment, including Lake Kasumigaura, which is Japan’s second largest lake, and Lake Hinuma, which is a designated Ramsar site. The prefecture is also home to various thriving industries. Tsukuba, for instance, is a focal point for some of the world’s most advanced science and technology. There are also industrial clusters in the Hitachi and Kashima districts. Additionally, there are Ibaraki’s agriculture, forestry, and fishing industries, nurtured by vast, fertile farmlands and a rich natural environment. Ibaraki Prefecture has many lakes and wetlands, including Lake Kasumigaura. More than just sources of water for drinking, industry, and agriculture, lakes also play an important role in our daily lives, as places for recreation and as places for us to feel at peace. Water forms the basis of all life, and we have enjoyed the blessings of ecosystem services derived from lakes. However, many of the world’s lakes are now facing a raft of problems, including the loss of biodiversity and the negative effects of climate change. th The 17 World Lake Conference is based on the theme “Harmonious Coexistence of Humans and Lakes -Toward Sustainable Ecosystem Services.” It aims to bring together a wide range of people involved in lakes and wetlands, including residents, people engaged in agriculture, forestry and fisheries, business owners, researchers, and government officials, in order to share information and to exchange ideas about what measures must be taken for us to continue to sustainably enjoy the benefits of ecosystem services. It is hoped that this conference will serve as a catalyst for people in a variety of positions to become more aware of their respective roles and that it will strengthen cooperation among them, leading to the development of new solutions for lake-related issues. My great hope for the conference is that it might help sustain the blessings we receive from lakes and that it might open up a brighter future for lakes and those that use them. Vice-Chair, Executive Committee of the 17th World Lake Conference President, International Lake Environment Committee Foundation (ILEC) Kazuhiko Takemoto The World Lake Conference (WLC) is recognized as a global forum for a wide range of stakeholders to exchange views and experiences on the sustainable management of lakes and their basins, exploring the th best solutions to common issues. I am pleased and honored to welcome you to 17 WLC here in Ibaraki, together with the members of the Organizing Committee. I would like to extend special thanks to them for th organizing 17 WLC in such a smooth and effective manner. In recent years, sustainability and resilience have become issues of high priority across the world, and the international community is now implementing the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015. We must all take action to contribute towards achieving the goals, and in particular, to Goal 6 on water and sanitation, Goal 15 on terrestrial ecosystems, and Goal 17 on partnerships. th Bearing in mind the theme of 17 WLC, “Co-existence of human beings and the lakes: toward sustainable ecosystem services,” this conference will be an opportunity to deepen discussions on measures to improve lake basin management and on the roles of various stakeholders. These discussions will contribute to global efforts to implement the 2030 Agenda, and at the same time to exploring possible solutions to relevant challenges. I wish you all a successful conference and strengthened partnerships, with active participation in all of the sessions and events - as well as a pleasant stay in the wonderful setting of Ibaraki. 1 17th World Lake Conference, Lake Kasumigaura, Ibaraki, Japan, 2018 1 Conference Aim Water forms the basis of all life, and a variety of ecosystems that include humans have benefited greatly from it. Lakes are an invaluable resource for agriculture and fisheries, for industry, and for our culture, and the conservation of lake environments is of the upmost importance. The 6th World Lake Conference, held in Ibaraki in 1995, adopted the theme “Harmonizing human life with lakes - toward the sustainable use of lakes and reservoirs”. Lake use, environmental conservation, the securement and management of freshwater resources, and the effects of eutrophication and chemical substances were discussed, and opinions exchanged with the aim of striving for harmony between humans and lakes. Furthermore, as a result of placing a focus on the undertaking of aquatic environment conservation activities and environmental education, a large number of river basin residents and citizens’ organizations participated in the conference, triggering an increase in citizen activities. Since the conference, a partnership between citizens, researchers, businesses, and government bodies has formed the basis of ongoing efforts to solve issues surrounding aquatic environments. In recent years, topics related to ecosystems have been discussed at the World Lake Conferences. In 1992, The Convention on Biological Diversity was adopted based on the fact that biodiversity supports human existence and brings a variety of benefits to humanity, and plants and animals have no national borders so it is important that issues surrounding ecosystems are tackled globally. Countries around the world are mutually cooperating in research and information exchange. Meanwhile, the Basic Law for Water Circulation came into force in Japan in July 2014 with the aim of comprehensively and integrally promoting policies concerning the water cycle in order to reassert that water is a resource that all humanity shares, to allow water to circulate healthily, and so that humanity can continue to enjoy the blessings that it brings. The law is based on fundamental concepts including the importance of the water cycle and integrated lake basin management, and establishes the respective responsibilities of local public organizations, businesses, and citizens, and the coordination and cooperation that should occur among them. Humans have enjoyed the blessing of ecosystem services such as food and water supplied by ecosystems built on biodiversity. However, development activities and climate change have caused a drastic loss in biodiversity. At the 17th World Lake Conference, we will

  • Fruit Bats As Natural Foragers and Potential Pollinators in Fruit Orchard: a Reproductive Phenological Study
    Journal of Agricultural Research, Development, Extension and Technology, 25(1), 1-9 (2019) Full Paper Fruit bats as natural foragers and potential pollinators in fruit orchard: a reproductive phenological study Camelle Jane D. Bacordo, Ruffa Mae M. Marfil and John Aries G. Tabora Department of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of Southern Mindanao, Kabacan, Cotabato, Philippines Received: 27 February 2019 Accepted: 10 June 2019 Abstract Family Pteropodidae could consume either fruit or flower parts to sustain their energy requirement. In some species of fruit bats, population growth is sometimes dependent on the food availability and in return bats could be pollinators of certain species of plants. In this study, 152 female bats captured from the Manilkara zapota orchard of the University of Southern Mindanao were examined for their reproductive stages. Lactation of fruit bat species Ptenochirus jagori and Ptenochirus minor were positively correlated with the fruiting of M. zapota. While the lactation of Cynopterus brachyotis, Eonycteris spelaea and Rousettus amplexicaudatus were positively associated with the flowering of M. zapota. Together, thirty M. zapota trees were observed for their generative stage (fruiting or flowering) in 6 months. Based on the canonical correspondence analysis, only P. jagori was considered as the natural forager as its lactating stage coincides with the fruiting peaks and only C. brachyotis and E. spelaea were the potential pollinators since its lactating stage coincides with the flowering peaks ofM. zapota tree. The method in this study can be used to identify potential pollinators and foragers in other fruit trees. Keywords - agroforest, chiropterophily, frugivore, nocturnal, Sapotaceae Introduction pollination process is called chiropterophily.

  • Holocene Sea-Level Changes and Coastal Evolution in Japan1)
    第 四 紀 研 究 (The Quaternary Research) 30 (2) p. 187-196 July 1991 Holocene Sea-Level Changes and Coastal Evolution in Japan1) Masatomo UMITSU2) Recent progress in Holocene sea-level studies and studies on coastal evolution in Japan are reviewed. Several studies recorded either a slight fall or slow rise of sea-level in the early Holocene, and some studies recognized minor regressions after the culmination of rapid postglacial transgression. Coastal landforms have changed remarkably during the Holocene. Many drowned valleys were formed in the middle Holocene, and the coast lines in Japan were very rugged at the time. Various types of coastal evolution have been reported in numerous studies. Some of the studies were carried out as cooperative research using a variety of research techniques. published by OTA et al.

  • Native Unionoida Surveys, Distribution, and Metapopulation Dynamics in the Jordan River-Utah Lake Drainage, UT
    Version 1.5 Native Unionoida Surveys, Distribution, and Metapopulation Dynamics in the Jordan River-Utah Lake Drainage, UT Report To: Wasatch Front Water Quality Council Salt Lake City, UT By: David C. Richards, Ph.D. OreoHelix Consulting Vineyard, UT 84058 email: [email protected] phone: 406.580.7816 May 26, 2017 Native Unionoida Surveys and Metapopulation Dynamics Jordan River-Utah Lake Drainage 1 One of the few remaining live adult Anodonta found lying on the surface of what was mostly comprised of thousands of invasive Asian clams, Corbicula, in Currant Creek, a former tributary to Utah Lake, August 2016. Summary North America supports the richest diversity of freshwater mollusks on the planet. Although the western USA is relatively mollusk depauperate, the one exception is the historically rich molluskan fauna of the Bonneville Basin area, including waters that enter terminal Great Salt Lake and in particular those waters in the Jordan River-Utah Lake drainage. These mollusk taxa serve vital ecosystem functions and are truly a Utah natural heritage. Unfortunately, freshwater mollusks are also the most imperiled animal groups in the world, including those found in UT. The distribution, status, and ecologies of Utah’s freshwater mussels are poorly known, despite this unique and irreplaceable natural heritage and their protection under the Clean Water Act. Very few mussel specific surveys have been conducted in UT which requires specialized training, survey methods, and identification. We conducted the most extensive and intensive survey of native mussels in the Jordan River-Utah Lake drainage to date from 2014 to 2016 using a combination of reconnaissance and qualitative mussel survey methods.
