The “World Development Report 2016” states that the rapid urbaniza- tion of the developing world “creates urgency to get our cities ‘right’ because global response to our most pressing challenges – from climate change to rising inequality – will likely succeed or fail in cities.” Against this background, Goal 11 of the “Sustainable Devel- opment Goals” (SDGs) aims to “[m]ake cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resil- ient and sustainable.” Land readjustment may be an effective approach for achieving this goal and addressing the global issues of urban population and human settlements. Defnitions of land readjustment differ according to country contexts. However, the essential concept can be found in the general provisions of the Japanese Land Readjust- ment Law enacted in 1954. According to this law, land readjustment means to alter the shape and land conditions of lots, and to install or improve public facilities in a city planning area in order to provide better public facilities and increase the usage of each lot. As this volume discusses, one advantage of land readjustment is that all dwellers remain in the area after project implementation and community cohesion is therefore maintained. Japan is considered a pioneering country in mainstreaming the land read- justment approach in its urban development policy. Japan has provided technical coop- eration to developing countries related to land readjustment since the 1980s, with the former Ministry of Construction and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) playing a central role. This book is the outcome of a research program on land readjustment conducted by the Japan International Cooperation Agency Research Institute (JICA-RI) with the partici- pation of 33 researchers and practitioners, many of whom have played key roles in urban development in their respective countries. This book aims to provide insights into the main features of the land readjustment approach, focusing on its effectiveness, advantages, and challenges. This volume explores how experiences in Japan and other countries have been applied and further improved in developing countries. I am con- vinced that this book will offer insightful lessons for the inclusive, sustainable, and resilient urbanization/reurbanization that is essential for quality growth and the achievement of the SDGs, in particular Goal 11. Naohiro Kitano Director JICA Research Institute iv Preface and Acknowledgements Land readjustment is an important instrument for the development and redevelopment of urban areas that is used widely around the world, especially in Japan, but still rela- tively unknown – or not extensively used – in other countries. In order to overcome this limitation, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) gathered international specialists and prepared this volume as a means of sharing high-quality knowledge and experience with an international audience. The past decade, in particular, has seen unprecedented academic and practical interest in land readjustment and, in an intercon- nected world, the instrument needs to be critically examined, disseminated, and adapted to suit highly diverse urban contexts. The major value of this publication is that it con- siders the underlying theories, provides an overview of the Japanese experience and offers many additional case studies from different countries. These case studies range from basic functions of land readjustment to the most complex processes, and are used to provide a better understanding of the fundamental contributions of the method to different systems of governance and urban planning. International readers seeking to implement – or improve – land readjustment within their own contexts will learn from the experiences of others around the world and will develop an appreciation of the major challenges, advantages and disadvantages of the process. This will limit the potential for misplaced ideas or oversimplistic blueprints in applications

The 17th of June in 1974, The people's Republic of China carried out the 16th nuclear explosion test. Concerning this test, atmospheric disturbance was observed at the nation-wide meteorological observatories. The scale of this explosion was equivalent to TNT 1 megatone. Fallout radioactivity measurement of this tests was carried out at the nation-wide radioactivity survey stations from the 18th to the 25th of June. Meantime, comparatively high radioactivity was measured, i.e., 1603pCi/m3 of beta radioactivity in upper air at Western Area and no especially significant levels were recorded of radioactivity iodine in milk.

Its fully grown body will attain more than 80 em in mantle length or more than 19 kg in weight and its robust body with the enormously developed fins makes it quite distinct from all other teuthoidean cephalopods; these features seem to deserve well of its being called a noticeable creature in the ocean. This cephalopod is found rather frequently and in a moderate quantity in certain districts of Japan and well known to local fishermen by various Japanese names such as "taru-ika" (barrel squid), "hako-ika" (box squid), "sode-ika" (sleeved squid), "kasa­ ika" (umbrella squid), "aka-ika" (red squid), etc. However, it is apparently very scarce in other parts of the world, being recorded outside the Japanese waters so far only from the Mediterranean (TROSCHEL 1857; JATTA 1896; NAEF 1921-28; etc.), the waters around Madeira (REES & MAUL 1956) and the Cape of Good Hope (BARNARD 1934), and almost nothing is known of its life history including migration, behavior, life span, etc.

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of ADCA subtypes among patients of Asahikawa Medical Center in Hokkaido. Patients and Methods This study was performed from July 2012 to June 2015. PCR and/or direct sequencing were carried out for 50 participants who were each clinically diagnosed with spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA). Results Among the 50 participants, 25 had familial SCA, and 25 had sporadic SCA. SCA6 was the most common type identified, found in 14 (43.8%) cases among 32 genetically confirmed cases. SCA6 was followed by SCA1, SCA31, and dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA), which each accounted for four (12.5%) of the 32 cases. SCA7 and SCA17 were not detected in this study. Two SCA6 patients were homozygous for a 21-CAG repeat allele, and each presented with early onset, pure cerebellar ataxia. Among the 25 sporadic patients, 11cases (44%) was clarified one case with SCA1, six SCA6, one SCA8, one SCA31, and two DRPLA. Notably, 18 participants could not be classified into an SCA type.

  • Geographical Variation of Dental Measurements in the Jomon Population Abstract Mesiodistal and Buccolingual Crown Measurements W
    J.Anthrop. Soc. Nippon 人 類 誌 97(1):493-512 (1989) Geographical Variation of Dental Measurements in the Jomon Population Hirofumi MATSUMURA Department of Anatomy, Sapporo Medical College Abstract Mesiodistal and buccolingual crown measurements were taken from the permanent tooth remains of the five Middle to Latest Jomon population samples from the Hokkaido, Tohoku, Kanto, Tokai and San'yo districts of Japan. The metrical data were compared with each other through multi- variate statistical methods. The analysis of variance for these crown meas- urements suggested that most of the variables showing significant geogra- phical difference were buccolingual diameters. The distance analysis based on the crown measurements revealed that the Hokkaido Jomon was isolated from the Jomon in Honshu, the main island of Japan. The Honshu Jomon groups were closely related to each other, although the male Tohoku Jomon was slightly closer to the Hokkaido Jomon. The principal factor analysis revealed that the overall dental proportion of the Hokkaido Jomon was dif- ferent from those of the Honshu Jomon groups, and the Tohoku Jomon carried the smallest overall tooth size among the five Jomon population samples com- pared. From the comparisons with recent groups, it was indicated that 1) the diversity in dental morphology between the Hokkaido and Honshu Jomon was smaller than that between the recent Kanto Japanese and the Jomon as a whole ; 2) the dentition of the Jomon population was characterized by relatively small canines, premolars and second molars as compared with the first molars; 3) these dental characteristics could also be seen in the dentition of the Ainu.
