  • Rapid Range Expansion of the Feral Raccoon (Procyon Lotor) in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, and Its Impact on Native Organisms
    Rapid range expansion of the feral raccoon (Procyon lotor) in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, and its impact on native organisms Hisayo Hayama, Masato Kaneda, and Mayuh Tabata Kanagawa Wildlife Support Network, Raccoon Project. 1-10-11-2 Takamoridai, Isehara 259-1115, Kanagawa, Japan Abstract The distribution of feral raccoons (Procyon lotor) was surveyed in Kanagawa Prefecture, central Japan. Information was collected mainly through use of a questionnaire to municipal offices, environment NGOs, and hunting specialists. The raccoon occupied 26.5% of the area of the prefecture, and its distribution range doubled over three years (2001 to 2003). The most remarkable change was the range expansion of the major population in the south-eastern part of the prefecture, and several small populations that were found throughout the prefecture. Predation by feral raccoons on various native species probably included endangered Tokyo salamanders (Hynobius tokyoensis), a freshwater Asian clam (Corbicula leana), and two large crabs (Helice tridens and Holometopus haematocheir). The impact on native species is likely to be more than negligible. Keywords: Feral raccoon; Procyon lotor; distribution; questionnaire; invasive alien species; native species; Kanagawa Prefecture INTRODUCTION The first record of reproduction of the feral raccoon presence of feral raccoons between 2001 and 2003 in Kanagawa Prefecture was from July 1990, and it and the reliability of the information. One of the was assumed that the raccoon became naturalised in issues relating to reliability is possible confusion with this prefecture around 1988 (Nakamura 1991). the native raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides; Damage by feral raccoons is increasing and the Canidae), which has a similar facial pattern with a number of raccoons, captured as part of the wildlife black band around the eyes, and a similar body size to pest control programme, is also rapidly increasing.

  • Preservation and Restoration of Tokyo Station Marunouchi Building
    Special edition paper Preservation and Restoration of Tokyo Station Marunouchi Building Atsushi Hayashi* Isamu Suzuki** Tokyo Station Marunouchi Building is a huge structure—an over 330 m-long and three-story high brick building completed as the central station of Tokyo about 100 years ago. The roof and the inside were burnt down in 1945 during World War II, and it had existed in a temporarily restored form since then. For the purpose of preservation and restoration of the building to its original appearance, an isolation system was adopted. Although the building has a complex location relative to nearby structures, as many as 352 isolators with 158 oil dampers have made it possible to control the shaking of the building. This work was carried out safely while many passengers used one of Japan's largest terminal stations every day. •Keywords: Preservation and restoration, Steel frame brick structure, Seismic isolation structure, Oil damper, Inverted construction method 1 Introduction had hotel guest rooms and restaurants on the southern half and Government Railway offices on the northern half. Advancement of urban functions and “formation of an urban space that makes the most of history and culture” are being promoted in Tokyo’s Marunouchi district with an aim of Tokyo being a “world-leading international city that is attractive and lively.” Tokyo Station Marunouchi Building bears a particularly important role in railway architectural history, presenting a “face” Fig. 1 Original Exterior View for the capitol of Tokyo. Its cultural value has been recognized, and it was designated an important cultural property of Japan 2.3 Earthquake and War in May 30, 2003.

  • Face Express, a New Facial Recognition Technology for Boarding Procedures at NRT and HND Is Coming Soon ! It’S Seamless and Contactless Experience !
    NEWS RELEASE 25 March 2021 Face Express, a new facial recognition technology for boarding procedures at NRT and HND is coming soon ! It’s seamless and contactless experience ! The operating companies of Narita International Airport (Narita International Airport Corporation - NAA) and Tokyo International Airport (Tokyo International Air Terminal Corporation - TIAT), will commence their trial for "Face Express”, a new boarding procedure using facial recognition technology, in April 2021. Once passengers register their facial image in Face Express, they will be able to access and proceed through subsequent procedures at the airport (check-in, baggage drop, security checkpoint entrance, boarding gate, etc.) without showing their passport and boarding pass. Its introduction will expedite seamless boarding procedures and, because most processing is touchless, it will also reduce the infection risks posed by person-to- person contact. The two airports will each commence their trial operation as below and prepare for a full launch in July.
