Those structur es formed as a result of uplift of the basement are the major faults and fissures parallel to the N-S trend of the present axis of the Basement Rise and the subordinate faults and fissures trending E-W and perpen dicular to that axis Those formed as a result of folding of the sedimentary rocks are the NNW-SSE trending structures of northern Shinjo Basin, the N-S trending structures of southern Shinjo Basin, the N-S trending structures of northern Yamagata Basin, and the NNE-SSW trending structures of southern Yamagata Basin. These structures include the fold axes and the faults and fissures parallel to them. In addition to these structures produced by folding of the sedimentary rocks, are the subordinate faults and fissures trending WNW and NE-SW to ENE. The crushed zones within these fractures were produced by an E-W lateral compression, which also produced exceedingly abundant E-W trending tension fractures, The NNE-SSE trending fissures adhere closely to these fractures caused by lateral compression. The individual ore deposits present within the two basins amount to a total of more than 300 ore deposits.

The strains isolated in Yamagata Prefecture did not showed auto-agglutination in broth, colony colour was mainly grey-white on TSA-C and NA-C medium, and there was no 50 kDa. major protein hand in the A-layer with SDS-PAGE. It was revealed from the results that non-agglutinating A. salmonicida exist in the strains isolated in Yamagata Prefecture. While there were no strains isolated in Hokkaido which were non-agglutinating. We suspect that the reason for the existence of non-agglutinating strains in Yamagata Prefecture may depend on the temperature at which this bacterium was isolated.

An empirical analysis based on panel data from Japan's Census of Manufactures FUKAO Kyoji RIETI IKEUCHI Kenta NISTEP KIM YoungGak Senshu University KWON Hyeog Ug RIETI The Research Institute of Economy, Trade and Industry http://www.rieti.go.jp/en/ RIETI Discussion Paper Series 11-E-068 September 2011 Do More Productive Firms Locate New Factories in More Productive Locations? An empirical analysis based on panel data from Japan’s Census of Manufactures FUKAO Kyoji (Hitotsubashi University, RIETI) IKEUCHI Kenta (NISTEP) KIM YoungGak (Senshu University) KWON Hyeog Ug (Nihon University, RIETI) Abstract Using a Melitz-style model of heterogeneous firms, Baldwin and Okubo (2006) recently presented a theoretical model in which self-sorting occurs and more productive factories choose to locate in more productive areas. The model suggests that firm-specific factors and regional factors affect each other through the endogeneity of location decisions. However, to date there have been few studies empirically testing this issue. Against this background, our aim is to examine the relationship between firms and location-specific factors in location decisions using factory-level panel data from Japan’s Census of Manufactures. We begin by estimating how much of the differences in factories’ TFP levels can be explained by both firm and location effects. The estimation results show that both effects have a significant impact on the productivity level of a factory, and that the firm effects are more important than the location effects. We also find a statistically significant negative correlation between firm effects and location effects, and investigate what causes this relationship.
