Japan- Tokyo- Logistics Q4 2019 M A R K E T B E AT JAPAN Logistics Q4 2019 YoY 12-Mo. GDP Rose for Four Consecutive Quarters Despite Tax Hike and Natural Disasters Chg Forecast Japan's international shipment value dropped 4.96% y-o-y to 19.15 trillion yen in Q3, reflecting a decline of automotive exports to China and 6.3% (YoY) motors for U.S. following tensions in the U.S.-China trade dispute.

Facilities with good expressway and commuter route 2.3% (YoY) access were taken up at higher rents. Space scarcity also resulted in positive spillover for properties in relatively less-convenient locations, with Route 16 Prime Rent Growth gradual vacancy take-up. Within Greater Tokyo Bay, prime locations near the Port of Tokyo enjoyed steady high demand, with new facilities taken up before completion. Rentals exhibited a gradual rise in the Greater Tokyo Bay prime area, and consequently demand increased in nearby Source: Cushman & Wakefield locations especially around the Port of Yokohama. In the latter half of 2019, Greater Tokyo supply was at 1,555,027 sq m including several large facilities at more than 100,000 sq m. A further 2,636,184 sq.m. is planned to complete in 2020, accommodating Tokyo’s strong logistics demand. JAPAN ECONOMIC INDICATORS Q3 2019 Parcel Redelivery Rate Improved 1 pp: Can ‘Front Porch Delivery’ Become a New Norm? According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, the parcel redelivery rate was 15% in October 2019, 1 percentage point YoY 12-Mo. lower than half a year ago. However, the government goal is 13% by March 2021. As e-commerce expands, package deliveries have grown Chg Forecast steadily, and redelivery has become a social issue regarding CO2 emissions and sustainability, in a time of driver shortages. Alternative delivery 1.8% options have been recently introduced, such as parcel delivery boxes and convenience store collection. Front porch delivery is the latest option, Real GDP Growth whereby drivers leave packages at a door or nearby designated space. Amazon Japan is making the option available nationwide in 2020.

  • Coastlines in Inoh's Map, 1821
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article Geospatial Analysis of the Non-Surveyed (Estimated) Coastlines in Inoh’s Map, 1821 Yuki Iwai 1,2,* and Yuji Murayama 3 1 Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba 305-8572, Japan 2 JSPS Research Fellow, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Chiyoda, Tokyo 102-8471, Japan 3 Faculty of Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba 305-8572, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The history of modern maps in Japan began with Inoh’s map that was made by surveying the whole of Japan on foot 200 years ago. Inoh’s team investigated coastlines, major roads, and geographical features such as rivers, lakes, temples, forts, village names, etc. The survey was successively conducted ten times from 1800 to 1816. Inoh’s map is known as the first scientific map in Japan using a systematic method. However, the actual survey was conducted only for 75% of the coastlines in Japan and the remaining 25% was drawn by Inoh’s estimation (observation). This study investigated how the non-surveyed (estimated) coastlines were distributed in the map and why the actual survey was not conducted in these non-surveyed coastlines. Using GIS, we overlaid the geometrically corrected Inoh’s map (Digital Inoh’s Map Professional Edition) with the current map published by the Geospatial Information Authority (GSI) of Japan for examining the spatial difference. We found that the non-surveyed coastlines were in places where the practice of actual surveying was topographically difficult because of the limited surveying technology of those days.

  • 15 to Enhance and Strengthen Port Functions and Measures for Cargo
    To enhance and strengthen port functions and measures for cargo collection, taking into consideration the conditions surrounding the Port of Kawasaki in recent years, such as wide-area linkage of the three Keihin ports (Port of Kawasaki, Port of Yokohama, and Port of Tokyo), and the Port of Kawasaki's selection as a Strategic International Container Port, the City of Kawasaki revised the harbor plan for the Port of Kawasaki, which focuses on the years from 2023 to 2028, in November 2014. This plan plays an extremely important role as a guideline for development, use, and conservation of the Port of Kawasaki, based on the role of this port within the three Keihin ports, as well as demands from port-related personnel, location companies, citizens, and the government. In an aim to increase industrial competitive strength in the metropolis, and protect and develop industries, employment, and livelihood based on reinforcing the linkage among the three Keihin ports, policies for the harbor plan are being established for each function in order to realize a Port of Kawasaki that supports industrial activities and contributes to the stability and improvement of the local economy and civilian life. [Industry/logistics functions] Strengthen logistics functions by reorganizing and expanding port functions [Disaster-prevention functions] Strengthen support functions at times when a large-scale earthquake occurs [Energy functions] Maintain and support energy supply functions [Environment/interaction functions] Enhance amenity space that makes use of the characteristics of the port space 15 Port capabilities are a premise that determines the scale and layout of port facilities, and the cargo amount handled is a basic indicator that represents port capabilities.

  • Edo-Mae Chiba NORI
    Once in a lifetime deliciousness A little luxury Always Chiba NORI Charm and character of Edo-mae Chiba NORI What makes NORI so delicious? The crispness? The tenderness? We hear many different opinions, but above all, we believe “Flavor and fragrance” are the most Edo-mae important! Chiba NORI’s pursuit of “Flavor and (Tok yo ) (region) fragrance” mean research and efforts are being made daily for quality improvement. The high quality of the fragrance of Chiba NORI is guaranteed; and regarding the Flavor, it melts on the tongue and UMAMI taste Chiba NORI spreads throughout your mouth. Chiba prefecture Dried seaweed sheet ( ) ( ) Chiba prefecture Mascot character The key to the Flavor is the “UMAMI component” of NORI. As in Konbu (Kelp), NORI contains a rich supply of the UMAMI component of glutamine acid. Also, in the process of drying raw NORI, Inosine CHI-BA+KUN acid is said to become more abundant, and the combination of Glutamine acid and Inosine acid create an “UMAMI synergy” and an even richer Flavor is born. Strength of UMAMI UMAMI One of the points of commitment during the production of Chiba synergy NORI is “changing the nets frequently”. By the NORI fishermen spending time changing the nets, freshly sprouted NORI can be Continuing to preserve cultivated more frequently, allowing for cultivation of a higher quality and tender NORI. “Edo-region Chiba NORI” will continue to the Edo (Tokyo)-mae(region) evolve and pursue even further delicious Flavor, while appreciating the blessings of nature such as the abundant nutrients poured into tradition for 200 years Tokyo Bay from the Kanto Plain and the tranquil tidal flats suitable Inosine Glutamine Effect acid + acid = multiplied for cultivating NORI.

The Onnagawa Formation is one of such deposits, which shows cyclic sedimentary rhythms reflecting oscil- lations of the marine environment in the Japan Sea. However, the age of the Onnagawa Formation is still poorly con- strained due to the poor preservation of siliceous microfossils. To better constrain its age, we performed U-Pb dating of zircon grains from a tuff layer from the middle part of the Onnagawa Formation, and obtained an age of 11.18 ± 0.37 Ma.

The first began in 1192, when the first military government was established in Kamakura. This made Kanagawa the centre of the Japanese political scene. The second period commenced in 1859, when the Port of Yokohama was opened to the world after more than 200 years of strict national isolation.

During this period, along with the development of the Keihin Industrial Belt, Kanagawa played a significant role in rebuilding the war-devastated Japanese economy.
