  • The Damage Situation of and Measures Taken for the Great East Japan Earthquake (100Th Announcement)
    This is provisional translation. Please refer to the original text written in Japanese. As of 14:00, September 22, 2011 The damage situation of and measures taken for the Great East Japan Earthquake (100th announcement) Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW) ※The underlined parts are changes from the last version. 1. Measures taken at MHLW At 14:46 on March 11 (Friday) : The earthquake hit in Sanriku offshore, Miyagi Prefecture. At 14:50 : The Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW was set up. At 9:00 on March 12 (Saturday) : The Local Liaison Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW (changed to the Local Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW) was set up. (Emergency phones were set up.) 2. Disaster information related to MHLW and measures taken by MHLW (1) The Disaster Relief Act Refer to Attachment 1, “The Disaster Relief Act,” for the past developments. ○ Application of the Disaster Relief Act (decisions taken by Prefectural Governors) The Act is applied in all municipalities in Iwate Prefecture, Miyagi Prefecture, and Fukushima Prefecture. The Act is applied in 113 municipalities in other 7 prefectures. ○ Flexible enforcement of the Disaster Relief Act ・ All Prefectural Governments, including those prefectures not affected by the disaster, were notified of the implementation of the flexible enforcement of the Disaster Relief Act, so that even Prefectural Governments not affected by the disaster could actively rescue evacuees. Specifically, it was clarified that when prefectures not affected by the earthquake set up evacuation shelters and temporary housings or rent ryokans (Japanese-style inns) and hotels, a considerable amount of the cost was funded by the Government (from 50 to 90% of the expenses, depending on the financial capability of the affected Local Governments).

  • Viewing the Fall Leaves Is Very Popular (Fig
    Brimblecombe and Hayashi Herit Sci (2018) 6:27 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40494-018-0186-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Pressures from long term environmental change at the shrines and temples of Nikkō Peter Brimblecombe1* and Mikiko Hayashi1,2 Abstract Background: Important historic buildings at Nikkō are designated National Treasures of Japan or important cultural properties and illustrate notable architectural styles. We examine the records of damaging events and environmental change to estimate that changing balance of threats to guiding strategic planning and protection of the buildings and associated intangible heritage. Methods: Historic records from Nikkō allow past damage to be assessed along with projections of likely future threats. Simple non parametric statistics, Lorenz curves and its associated Gini coefcient aids interpretation of observations. Results: Earthquakes have long represented a threat, but mostly to fxed stone structures. Flooding may be as grow- ing problem, but historically river management has improved. Increasing warmth may mean an increase in the threat of fungal attack. However, insect attack on wood has been a particular problem as recent years have seen damage by wood boring insects, particularly at Sanbutsudō in the temple complex of Rinnō-ji. Although warmer climates may enhance the abundance of insects such as P. cylindricum the life cycle of this rare anobiid is not well understood. The risk of forest fres tends to be higher in drought period, but summer rainfall may well increase at Nikkō. Additionally good forestry practice can reduce this risk. Future changes to climate are likely to alter the fowering dates and the arrival of autumn colours.

  • Become a Time Traveller in Tochigi City, Vol.1 ～Good-Value Exploration with the One-Day Citizen Passport～
    January 19, 2018 From Tokyo/Asakusa to Little Edo Tochigi in around 70 min! Enjoy Edo-period storehouses, maritime transport, and fine food to the fullest Become a Time Traveller in Tochigi City, Vol.1 ～Good-value exploration with the One-Day Citizen Passport～ Tobu Railway Co., Ltd. Get on the Tobu Railway at Asakusa in the Shitamachi area of Tokyo and you are around 70 minutes away from Tochigi City, Tochigi Prefecture. Also known as Little Edo, the city has preserved its old Japanese townscape and culture shaped by maritime transport. Explore the town with Japanese sweets in hand and experience a relaxing time while enjoying Japanese history and culture. We present to you Tochigi City, where you can become like a time traveller from the present to the Edo period. The Beginnings of the “Storehouse Town”: The Nikko Reiheishi Road and Uzuma River Transport The existence of “storehouses” implies that there were goods and funds to store. Tochigi developed to be a “storehouse town” because it was one of the most prominent commercial centers in Kanto. Let’s unravel its history! The casket of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first Tokugawa shogun, was reburied on Mt. Nikko in 1617. After that, the imperial envoys started to visit the Nikko Toshogu Shirine every year, where Ieyasu is enshrined. As the imperial envoys travelling there were called Reiheishi, the road they took was called Nikko Reiheishi Road. Tochigi became a post town on this thoroughfare, gathering people and goods. This is said to have sparked the town’s development as a commercial center.

    A fl ood control facility with an extensive reed bed, an excellent habitat for 700 species of plants Watarase-yusuichi Low Moor, Artifi cial Wetland Geographical Coordinates: 36°14’N, 139°41’E / Altitude: 8-23m / Area: 2861ha /Major Type of Wetland: Low moor, artifi cial wetland / Designation: National Wildlife Protection Area, River Area / Municipalities Involved: Koga City, Ibaraki Prefecture, Tochigi City, Oyama City and Nogi Town, Tochigi Prefecture, Itakura Town, Gunma Prefecture, Kazo City, Saitama Prefecture/ Ramsar Designation: July 2012 / Ramsar Criteria: 1 control along with a number of dams in the upstream of the Tone River, a primary river that runs through the Kanto plains. The excess fl ood water from the three rivers, Watarase-gawa, Omoi-gawa and Uzuma-gawa, is stored in this basin tem- porarily so as not to affect the trunk of the Tone river. Wetland Conservation and Basic Plan for Restoration: A Committee for Wetland Conservation and Restoration of Watarase-yusuichi was established in 2002 in order to improve the fl ood control function as well as to pro- mote wetland conservation and restoration of this basin. The committee formulated a Lake Yanaka-ko plan: “Basic Plan for Wetland Conservation and Restoration of Watarase-yusuichi” in 2010. The objective of this plan is restor- ing the deteriorated wetland environment by excavating the places affl icted by nega- tive factors such as alien species to restore a habitat for diverse fauna and fl ora. Wet- land conservation and restoration in this area is going to be promoted based on this plan while taking consideration for the conservation of the existing good environ- ment and improvement of the fl ood control function.

Telemundi II - 7 andar, CEP 70070-010 Brasilia-DF, Brazil Received 21 July 2012; received in revised form 2 October 2013; accepted 26 November 2013 Available online 31 July 2014 Abstract The objective of this paper is to clarify the factors that resulted in many landslides during the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake. The geology of the Tohoku district, the seismic motion of the main shock and the precipitation around the time of the earthquake are described. As one of the characteristic phenomena observed around Shirakawa city in Fukushima prefecture and the mid-eastern part of Tochigi prefecture, many of the slopes were characterized by a high distribution of sensitive volcanic cohesive soils. The estimated PGA and PGV around the areas were therefore larger, which might have promoted the softening of the sensitive soils. Although there had been little precipitation before the main shock, the landslides occurred mostly in the slopes containing the volcanic cohesive soils with higher water content.
