In the beginning of this decade, researcher found that they were ubiquitous in living organism and human, and that they possibly had characteristics of persistent organic pollutants. Therefore, there is an emerging need to study PFOS and PFOA contamination environment, particularly in the water environment. The research aims at examination of spatial distribution and behavior of PFOS and PFOA in water environment of several countries, with focus on new places where examination has never been conducted. Therefore, the method to analyze PFOS and PFOA in environmental water was developed. Sampling surveys were conducted to collect various types of water including surface water, wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) discharges, and tap water from various locations for analysis of PFOS and PFOA. Distribution and behavior of PFOS and PFOA were examined as three main parts.

  • The History, Tradition, and Culture of Kyoto Prefecture
    The History, Tradition, and Culture of Kyoto Prefecture Kyoto Prefectural Education Center Preface The world has become a smaller place due to the development of high-speed machines and information technology. Nowadays the ability to show the world our identity as Japanese people including our culture and tradition, especially the ability to communicate with the rest of the world, is needed more than ever. Throughout history, Kyoto has been at the center of Japanese culture and history. Kyoto is therefore a good starting point for communicating with the world about Japanese culture and history. In this textbook, the history, tradition, and culture of each region in Kyoto Prefecture are introduced in English so that you, as high school students, can be proud to tell people from abroad about your hometown and Kyoto in English. The contents of chapter Ⅰto Ⅲ in this textbook are based on a Japanese textbook which was written for new teachers working in Kyoto Prefecture. Some parts have been erased and changed, and in other parts, new information was added so that high school students can understand better. You might find some difficult words in the textbook, however, the sentence structures are rather simple and readers with a basic knowledge of grammar can read on with a dictionary at hand. Furthermore, as the Japanese explanations are available on the right page, you can utilize them as a reference if the English is too difficult to understand. Besides, this textbook would be useful not only for students but also for people from abroad who don't know much about Kyoto Prefecture.

  • Volki (Annelida: Clitellata: Propappidae) from Japan
    JapaneseJapaneseSociety Society ofSystematicof Systematic Zoology Species Diversity, 2006, 11, 359-365 New Record of Propappus volki (Annelida: Clitellata: Propappidae) from Japan Takaaki Torii ll)Et`I CDnsuttants inc., 1334-5Riemon, Oigawa. Shida, Shizuoka, 421-CL212 .lapan E-mail: [email protected] (Received 1 November 2005; Accepted 11 July 2006) A species of freshwater oligochaete, PrQpoppus volki Michaelsen, 1916, is newly recorded from sand and gravel bottoms of several unpolluted streams in Honshu, Japan. The present material agrees well with the previous de- scriptiens of this species except that the spermathecal ampulla is shorter and the proboscis is more elomgate than those described earlier. This is the first record of the family Propappidae Coates, 1986 (New Japanese name: Ko- himemimizu-ka) and the genus Prql)qppus Miehaelsen, 1905 (New Japanese narne: Ko-himemimizu-zoku) in Japan. It provides evidence that the oligochaete fauna in Japan is more closely related to the Holarctic than to the Sino-Indian zoogeographical region, PrQpqppus votici can be regarded as a good bio-indicator fbr unpolluted water. Key Words: oligochaetes, Clitellata, Propappidae, Propappus volki, new record, Japan. Introduction The genus PrQpqppus was erected by Michaelsen (1905) fbr PrQpappus gtandu- losus Michaelsen, 1905 in the family Enchytraeidae. Afterwards Coates (1986) cre- ated the family Propappidae for the single genus PrQpappus on the basis of a unique combination of setal and genital characteristics distinctly different from those ef the Enchytraeidae. Only three species of Propampus have so far been described from freshwater habitats of the Palaearctic region, Among them, Prqpqppus glandulosus has been recorded from Lake Baikal and the Angara and Yenisey Rivers in central Russia (Michaelsen 1905; Coates 1986), PrQpqppus arhynchotus Sokolskaja, 1972 has been recorded only from the Kamchatka Peninsula and Amur basin in the Russian Far East (Timm 1994, 1999a).
