  • Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Update Friday, April 1, 2011 Overview
    Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Update Friday, April 1, 2011 Note: New content has been inserted in red, italicized, bold font. Overview A powerful 9.0-magnitude earthquake hit Japan on March 11 at 1446 local time (0546 GMT), unleashing massive tsunami waves that crashed into Japan’s northeastern coast of Honshu, the largest and main island of Japan, resulting in widespread damage and destruction. According to the Government of Japan (GoJ), as of Friday (April 1), 11,734 people are confirmed dead and 16,375 people are reported to be missing. (Kyodo, Reuters, April 1) There are no new figures for the number of injured, but the UN reported last week that 2,766 people 1 were injured. Casualty numbers are likely to increase as emergency teams continue to reach and assess affected areas. The earthquake sparked widespread tsunami warnings across the Pacific. According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the shallow quake struck at a depth of six miles (10 km) (20 km deep according to Japan’s Meteorological Agency), around 80 miles (125 km) off the eastern coast of Japan, and 240 miles (380 km) northeast of Tokyo. Key Concerns: • There are more than 166,000 evacuees. • UN says priority needs remain: fuel, prefabricated housing, clothing and medicine. Request for international assistance Japan has asked for international help to deal with the disaster and has so far received offers of assistance from 134 countries and 33 international organizations. It has accepted relief items from 24 countries to date. According to OCHA, the GoJ says the need for further international assistance is limited and any support should be in accordance with the GoJ’s criteria.

  • Analysis of the Effects of Air Transport Liberalisation on the Domestic Market in Japan
    Chikage Miyoshi Analysis Of The Effects Of Air Transport Liberalisation On The Domestic Market In Japan COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICS PhD Thesis COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICS PhD Thesis Academic year 2006-2007 Chikage Miyoshi Analysis of the effects of air transport liberalisation on the domestic market in Japan Supervisor: Dr. G. Williams May 2007 This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Cranfield University 2007. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced without the written permission of the copyright owner Abstract This study aims to demonstrate the different experiences in the Japanese domestic air transport market compared to those of the intra-EU market as a result of liberalisation along with the Slot allocations from 1997 to 2005 at Haneda (Tokyo international) airport and to identify the constraints for air transport liberalisation in Japan. The main contribution of this study is the identification of the structure of deregulated air transport market during the process of liberalisation using qualitative and quantitative techniques and the provision of an analytical approach to explain the constraints for liberalisation. Moreover, this research is considered original because the results of air transport liberalisation in Japan are verified and confirmed by Structural Equation Modelling, demonstrating the importance of each factor which affects the market. The Tokyo domestic routes were investigated as a major market in Japan in order to analyse the effects of liberalisation of air transport. The Tokyo routes market has seven prominent characteristics as follows: (1) high volume of demand, (2) influence of slots, (3) different features of each market category, (4) relatively low load factors, (5) significant market seasonality, (6) competition with high speed rail, and (7) high fares in the market.

  • A Retrospective Study of Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, 1984–2014
    Epidemiol. Infect. (2017), 145, 462–470. © Cambridge University Press 2016 doi:10.1017/S0950268816002430 Meteorological factors affecting scrub typhus occurrence: a retrospective study of Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, 1984–2014 1 1 2 3 1 J. SETO *, Y. SUZUKI ,R.NAKAO,K.OTANI,K.YAHAGI AND K. MIZUTA1 1 Department of Microbiology, Yamagata Prefectural Institute of Public Health, Yamagata City, Yamagata, Japan 2 Laboratory of Parasitology, Department of Disease Control, Graduate School of Veterinary Medicine, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan 3 Department of Public Health, Yamagata University Graduate School of Medicine, Yamagata, Japan Received 10 May 2016; Final revision 31 August 2016; Accepted 28 September 2016; first published online 28 October 2016 SUMMARY Climate change, by its influence on the ecology of vectors might affect the occurrence of vector- borne diseases. This study examines the effects of meteorological factors in Japan on the occurrence of scrub typhus, a mite-borne zoonosis caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi. Using negative binomial regression, we analysed the relationships between meteorological factors (including temperature, rainfall, snowfall) and spring–early summer cases of scrub typhus in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, during 1984–2014. The average temperature in July and August of the previous year, cumulative rainfall in September of the previous year, snowfall throughout the winter, and maximum depth of snow cover in January and February were positively correlated with the number of scrub typhus cases. By contrast, cumulative rainfall in July of the previous year showed a negative relationship to the number of cases. These associations can be explained by the life-cycle of Leptotrombidium pallidum, a predominant vector of spring–early summer cases of scrub typhus in northern Japan.
