  • Temporal Trends for Dioxins-Related Agrochemicals in Sediments in a Large-Scale Rice-Producing Area, Niigata, Japan
    LEVELS IN SOIL AND WATER TEMPORAL TRENDS FOR DIOXINS-RELATED AGROCHEMICALS IN SEDIMENTS IN A LARGE-SCALE RICE-PRODUCING AREA, NIIGATA, JAPAN Mizuki Sakai1, Muto Hiroaki2, Kajihara Hideo1, Takahashi Yukio2 1Graduate School of Science and Technology, University of Niigata, 2-8050 Ikarashi, Niigata, Japan 2Faculty of Engineering, University of Niigata, 2-8050 Ikarashi, Niigata, Japan Introduction Japanese people have historically eaten rice as the main grain constituent in their diet. In Sea of Japan the past 50 years, a larger amount of agrochemicals have been applied to Japanese rice fields to increase rice production. Masunaga et al. reported that common Toyano Lagoon Agano Japanese agrochemicals such as River pentachlorophenol (PCP) and chloronitrophen (CNP) used in rice fields in the past contain Shinano Kameda basin dioxins as impurities 1. Since Niigata Plain is River the largest rice-producing area in Japan, the soil and/or sediment in the lower basin in 5km Niigata Plain could be highly polluted. In the previous study, we measured the age of a sediment core and the amount of dioxins (PCDD/DFs) in Toyano Lagoon and estimated the historical trend and the sources of dioxin2. Most of the sources of dioxin in Toyano Lagoon sediment were PCP and CNP. The aims of this work are to quantify the extent, clarify the historical trends of CNP and PCP pollution in the Toyano Lagoon sediment and consider the interrelation between them. Figure 1 Sampling Site. Arrows mean flow direction. Method and Materials Sediment Core A sediment core, which was a cylindrical sample with a diameter of 20cm and a length of 80cm, was obtained from the northern part of Toyano Lagoon.

  • On the Banks of the Agano
    chapter 1 On the Banks of the Agano On August 14, 1925, in the hamlet of Kosugi in Niigata prefecture, a child was born. Sakaue Toshié was born in her family home, a structure of wood, bamboo, and mud, on the edge of the hamlet abutting the levee of the Agano River. Her mother gave birth to her in the close, window- less room that the family used for sleeping. Her mother, whose name was Tsugino, endured the pains of childbirth lying on the floor on a cotton- backed mattress, over which were thrown several rough straw mats stuffed with ashes to catch the blood accompanying childbirth. A birth was a commonplace event in the life of the village, but it was also a dangerous one. Tsugino could expect no assistance from modern medicines. The dangers from infection and excessive bleeding were all too real. Two out of every ten babies died in childbirth or infancy. Ko- sugi had no doctor; its births were presided over by Mrs. Yamazaki, the midwife. In the event of a complication, the doctor must be sent for from So¯ mi, an hour and a half’s walk up the bank of the Agano. Mrs. Yamazaki was a young woman in her twenties, recently gradu- ated from midwifery school in the nearby town of Shibata. Her husband was the priest of the hamlet temple. Mrs. Yamazaki attended virtually every birth in Kosugi, and she was usually the only medical resource available. Unlike the old-fashioned “delivery women” (toriagebasan)— who offered only a few herbal remedies and a supporting hand while the birthing mother clutched at a rope hanging from the ceiling—Mrs.

  • Icp-Ms Measurements of Iodine and Bromine in Environmental Samples Collected Along the Kuji River, Japan
    JAERI-Conf 2003-010 JP0350637 4.42 ICP-MS MEASUREMENTS OF IODINE AND BROMINE IN ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES COLLECTED ALONG THE KUJI RIVER, JAPAN Kouhei N. KUSHITA1 and Hikaru AMAN02 'Nuclear Technology and Education Center 2Department of Environmental Sciences Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute Tokai-mura, Naka-gun, lbaraki-ken 319-1195 JAPAN ABSTRACT From a viewpoint of monitoring the distribution and transfer of long-lived radioiodine (129 1) and possible hazardous brominated substances, I and Br contents in various environmental samples collected in the Kuji River area, Japan, were studied by ICP-MS. The feature of the change in concentrations of I and Br, as well as those of other general properties such as pH etc., in Kuji River watershed were coincident with each other. It is considered from te obtained data tat te environmental conditions, especially those of the soil of the area, mainly control the distribution of I and Br in the river water. The circulation characteristics of I and Br showed different features in different transfer media, which could be ascribed to the different chemical properties of these elements in each media. It was also shown that the distributions of I and Br are varied even within a small zone of about 20 km width around a high mountain of this area, which is also considered to reflect the environmental characteristics of the district. KEYWORDS: ICP-MS, IODINE, BROMINE, RIVER, SOIL, TRANSFER 1. INTRODUCTION In nuclear accidents such as that at Chernobyl in 1986, radio-iodine has been always one of the main concerns because of its high mobility and hazardous property toward people.

Okaa,n, P. Tsaia, S. Kimotoa, R. Katob aDepartment of Civil & Earth Resources Engineering, Kyoto University, Japan bNikken Sekkei Civil Engineering Ltd., Osaka, Japan Received 3 February 2012; received in revised form 25 July 2012; accepted 1 September 2012 Available online 11 December 2012 Abstract Due to the 2011 off the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake, which had a magnitude of 9.0, many soil-made infrastructures, such as river dikes, road embankments, railway foundations and coastal dikes, were damaged. The river dikes and their related structures were damaged at 2115 sites throughout the Tohoku and Kanto areas, including Iwate, Miyagi, Fukushima, Ibaraki and Saitama Prefectures, as well as the Tokyo Metropolitan District. In the first part of the present paper, the main patterns of the damaged river embankments are presented and reviewed based on the in situ research by the authors, MLIT (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism) and JICE (Japan Institute of Construction Engineering). The main causes of the damage were (1) liquefaction of the foundation ground, (2) liquefaction of the soil in the river embankments due to the water-saturated region above the ground level, and (3) the long duration of the earthquake, the enormity of fault zone and the magnitude of the quake.

  • Major Disaster Surveys
    ●Documents Major Disaster Surveys 1 Field survey and guidance based on the nature-oriented river works advisor system for emergency projects to deal with severe damage and disaster assistance projects (Niigata Prefecture, Wakayama Prefecture) From July 27 to 30, 2011, parts of Niigata and Fukushima Prefectures were struck by record breaking heavy rain exceeding the torrential rain which struck Niigata and Fukushima Prefectures in July 2004, causing damage along the Igarashi River, the Agano River and so on. We advised on forms of revetments and embedding according to the causes of the damage, and gave advice on the design of new channels and the treatment of revetments and watersidess taking account of environment, for the Igarashi River, Shiotani River, and Hane River. Because the Agano River includes a river cruising course, we gave guidance about revetments considering the scenery and the height of polders. Typhoon 12 brought record-breaking torrential rainfall exceeding a total of 1,800mm at places on the Kii Peninsula, causing damage on rivers including the Hidaka River, Ota River, and the Nachi River. For the Hidaka River, we gave advice on methods of improving the levees after confirming the flood control functions of the open levees. For the Ota River, we advised on excavation method which conserved the riparian forests growing continuously at the waterside of the low water channel. For the Nachi River, we advised on the setting of the channel profile foreseeing its future change which had been buried by this disaster and provided guidance on a method to consider the world treasure, the Nachi Taisha Shrine.

Radioactivity of 134Cs and 137Cs in the river waters ranged respectively from 0.007 Bq/l to 0.149 Bq/l and 0.008 Bq/l to 0.189 Bq/l. Their horizontal distributions were consistent with those of material that had been deposited on the ground surface. The percentages of particulate forms of 134Cs and 137Cs were 56–89% for the Fukushima river samples.
