Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.
  • Kanagawa Prefecture

    Kanagawa Prefecture

    www.EUbusinessinJapan.eu Latest update: August 2013 KANAGAWA PREFECTURE Prefecture’s flag Main City: Yokohama Population: 9,079,000 people, ranking 2/47 (2013) [1] Area: 2,415.84 km² [2] Geographical / Landscape description: Kanagawa Prefecture is located in the southern Kanto region of Japan and is part of the Greater Tokyo Area. Topographically, the prefecture consists of three distinct areas. The mountainous western region features the Tanzawa Mountain Range and Hakone Volcano. The hilly eastern region is characterized by the Tama Hills and Miura Peninsula. The central region, which surrounds the Tama Hills and Miura Peninsula, consists of flat stream terraces and low lands around major rivers including the Sagami River, Sakai River, Tsurumi River, and Tama River. [2] Climate: The climate is moderate due to the warm current running along the Pacific side of the archipelago. [2] Time zone: GMT +7 in summer (+8 in winter) International dialling code: 0081 Recent history, culture Kanagawa has played a major role in some significant periods in Japan's history. The first began in 1192, when the first military government was established in Kamakura. This made Kanagawa the centre of the Japanese political scene. The second period commenced in 1859, when the Port of Yokohama was opened to the world after more than 200 years of strict national isolation. Since then, Kanagawa became the gateway for the introduction of Western civilization. The third period was the 1950s, when the Japanese economy was being reconstructed after World War II. During this period, along with the development of the Keihin Industrial Belt, Kanagawa played a significant role in rebuilding the war-devastated Japanese economy.

Individual particles other than diatom collected on a 0.45 µm filter from the Fuji and Sagami rivers, central Japan, were analyzed by SEM-EDX and classified into seventeen groups according to the chemical composition and shape. Phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, manganese and copper detected in each particle collected on the 0.45 µm filter could be successfully used as effective indicators of labile substance secondarily formed and adsorbed afresh in river water, because the detection frequencies of such elements are quite low, or negligible, in fresh mineral particles derived from igneous rocks. The labile substance adsorbed on mineral particles collected on the 0.45 µm filter was also evaluated by dilute-acid leaching, followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Almost all parts of the manganese detected in individual particles were those adsorbed afresh as hydroxides together with iron and aluminum.

Aimed at reviving the styles and themes of the traditional Yamato-e painting, focusing on the past models of the Tosa school, this aesthetic was also combined with the complexity of the literati (bunjinga) traditions. This screen was originally created as a pair of six-fold screens with the mate depicting the most celebrated site in Japan, Mount Fuji; that screen is in the collection of the Utsunomiya Geijutsu Daigaku (Utsunomiya Art University). This screen of Mount Tsukuba with its expressive brushwork, strong use of ink and green pigment, and masterful use of negative space creates a scene that has a mystical appearancewith deep recession in space. The signature on the screen dates it to the Bunka era (180418), when Bunchô was at the height of his popularity. Furthermore, it was mentioned in thediary of Matsudaira Sadanobu (1758-1829) the celebrated daimyô, financial reformer, chief senior councilor of the Tokugawa Shogunate, that Buncho painted a pair of screens of Mounts Tsukuba and Fuji before his very eyes. To date, these are the only known pair of screens by Bunchô of this subject and might be those so described.

Inside the accreted Izu–Bonin–Mariana (IBM) basin, a two-dimensional map of the geothermal gradient calculated roughly using the discharge groundwater temperatures and the borehole temperature logging data confirms that the aqui- fer is recharged by the local meteoric water (LMW) and the high density seawater in the area. The oxygen and hydrogen isotopic compositions reveal that the Ca·Na–SO4 groundwaters in the Tanzawa Mts. and the high Na–Cl groundwaters in the coastal area are of meteoric water and weakly altered fossil seawater origins, respectively.
