  • Quantitative Evaluation of Water and Substances Cycle in the Upper River Basin of Kushiro Mire by Using Swat Model
    Proceedings of the 22nd IAHR-APD Congress 2020, Sapporo, Japan QUANTITATIVE EVALUATION OF WATER AND SUBSTANCES CYCLE IN THE UPPER RIVER BASIN OF KUSHIRO MIRE BY USING SWAT MODEL HIROKI OHASHI OYO corporation, Saitama-City, Japan, [email protected] MAKOTO NAKATSUGAWA Muroran Institute of Tecnology, Muroran-City, Japan, [email protected] ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to evaluate water and substances (sediment, nitrogen and phosphorus) runoff mechanism quantitatively in Kuchoro River watershed located in the upper river basin of Kushiro mire. We applied SWAT model, which is sufficiently calibrated to this objective area, to understand runoff mechanism of water and substance cycle in 1940 to 2017. Main results of this study are 1) Substances flowed out from not only Pasture area but also highland area because of rapid surface water flow occurrence and 2) development and river straighten in upper watershed would be influenced to the environment of Kushiro Mire. These results will contribute to evaluate water and substances cycle in whole Kushiro mire and to propose efficient countermeasures for preserving the natural environment in Kushiro River. Keywords: Water and substances cycle, SWAT, Nature Restoration, Kushiro mire, Quantification 1. INTRODUCTION For Kushiro Mire, registered in the Ramsar Convention in 1980, the Kushiro Wetland Nature Restoration Committee has been organized to restore and conserve the condition of the mire at the time of Ramsar registration because of its rapid qualitative and quantitative changes in recent years (Kushiro Wetland Nature Restoration Committee, 2005). The most basic and important action for this issue is to understand the mechanism of water and substances cycle in Kushiro Mire.

  • Whale Watching and Dolphin Watching in Japan
    Whale Watching and Dolphin Watching in Japan August 2016 NPO Japan Ecotourism Society 1 Foreword: In 2009, the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) published a special report titled “Whale Watching Worldwide”. Around 7 pages in the report were devoted to fact-finding research about whale watching in Japan. 7 years since then, this year`s report will update the data on whale watching in Japan through fact-finding research by visiting 80% of the localities mentioned in this report and conducting interviews with relevant local players such as whale watching associations, unions, and businesses. These interviews will allow us to gain detailed and accurate knowledge of the current situations in whale watching localities. The aftereffects of the 2011 East Japan Earthquake and 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake are still being felt by some whale watching localities, with numbers of whale watching participants lower than pre-earthquake levels in 2009. On the other hand, some localities have seen large increases in whale watching participants and sales in the past decade. This report focused on addressing these points in the interview hearings: ① Number of businesses ② Number of passengers ③ Changes in the customer base ④ Price of whale watching or dolphin watching tour ⑤ Sales ⑥ Number of employees ⑦ Income of employees Additionally, upon conducting the local interviews, we were informed about the recent history, issues, and future plans by our interviewees. 2 Table of Contents Foreword: page 2 Japan`s whale, dolphin watching localities map: page

  • Species of Stauromedusae from Hokkaido, with Notes on Their Metamorphosis (With 12 Text-Figures)
    Title Species of Stauromedusae from Hokkaido, with Notes on Their Metamorphosis (With 12 Text-figures) Author(s) HIRANO, Yayoi M. Citation 北海道大學理學部紀要, 24(3), 182-201 Issue Date 1986-03 Doc URL http://hdl.handle.net/2115/27696 Type bulletin (article) File Information 24(3)_P182-201.pdf Instructions for use Hokkaido University Collection of Scholarly and Academic Papers : HUSCAP Species of Stauromedusae from Hokkaido, with Notes on Their Metamorphosis By Yayoi M. Hirano Zoological Institute, Hokkaido University (With 12 Text-figures) Of seyen species of Stauromedusae ever reported from Japan, the following six species are known from Hokkaido: Haliclystus auricula (Rathke 1806), H. borealis Uchida 1933, H. steinegeri Kishinouye 1899, Stenoscyphus inabai (Ki­ shinouye 1893), Sasakiella cruciformis Okubo 1917, and Thaumatoscyphus distin­ ctus Kishinouye 1910. Remaining one species, Kishinouyea nagatensis is dis­ tributed in the warm-temperate region of Japanese waters, but has not been recorded from Hokkaido. In adjacent waters of Hokkaido, an additional species, Octomanus monstrosus was reported by Naumov (1961). Naumov established a new species, Thaumatoscyphus uchidai from Bering Strait, Kurile Islands and Hokkaido, for the species T. distinctus described by Uchida (1929) and Uchida and Hanaoka (1933). As accurate discrimination between these species could not be made in the present study, the species name T. distinctus by Uchida was followed below. In this paper the author describes six species found in Hokkaido and gives some notes on their early metamorphosis. A seaweed, Sargassum corifusum Agardh, on which Stauromedusae tightly attached was collected and preserved in 5% formalin solution after anesthetization for medusae with 1% MgC1 2 for about five minutes.
