  • 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.

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.

  • The Damage Situation of and Measures Taken for the Great East Japan Earthquake (100Th Announcement)
    This is provisional translation. Please refer to the original text written in Japanese. As of 14:00, September 22, 2011 The damage situation of and measures taken for the Great East Japan Earthquake (100th announcement) Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW) ※The underlined parts are changes from the last version. 1. Measures taken at MHLW At 14:46 on March 11 (Friday) : The earthquake hit in Sanriku offshore, Miyagi Prefecture. At 14:50 : The Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW was set up. At 9:00 on March 12 (Saturday) : The Local Liaison Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW (changed to the Local Disaster Response Headquarters of MHLW) was set up. (Emergency phones were set up.) 2. Disaster information related to MHLW and measures taken by MHLW (1) The Disaster Relief Act Refer to Attachment 1, “The Disaster Relief Act,” for the past developments. ○ Application of the Disaster Relief Act (decisions taken by Prefectural Governors) The Act is applied in all municipalities in Iwate Prefecture, Miyagi Prefecture, and Fukushima Prefecture. The Act is applied in 113 municipalities in other 7 prefectures. ○ Flexible enforcement of the Disaster Relief Act ・ All Prefectural Governments, including those prefectures not affected by the disaster, were notified of the implementation of the flexible enforcement of the Disaster Relief Act, so that even Prefectural Governments not affected by the disaster could actively rescue evacuees. Specifically, it was clarified that when prefectures not affected by the earthquake set up evacuation shelters and temporary housings or rent ryokans (Japanese-style inns) and hotels, a considerable amount of the cost was funded by the Government (from 50 to 90% of the expenses, depending on the financial capability of the affected Local Governments).

  • A Snapshot of the Displacement of Fukushima Residents: As of the First Anniversary of Japan’S 3.11 Disasters
    Tohoku Geographical Association’s Bulletin on the 2011 East Japan Earthquake, March 9, 2012 March 10, 2012 A snapshot of the displacement of Fukushima residents: as of the first anniversary of Japan’s 3.11 disasters Takashi Oda Assistant Professor Center for Simulation Sciences Ochanomizu University, Tokyo This short report presents the result of a GIS (Geographic Information System) mapping conducted to create a simple snap shot of the displacement of Fukushima residents. As we are approaching the first anniversary of the 2011 East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, this report is aimed to serve as a reminder of the ongoing predicament of those who are affected by the disasters. Almost a year has passed since the 3.11 disasters and the subsequent Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, which occurred in Japan in March 2011. According to the latest figures put together by the Fukushima Prefectural Government1, as of February 23, 2012, 62,674 persons, who were the residents of Fukushima Prefecture, are officially reported to still be stranded outside their home prefecture2. As reported by Oda (2011)3 in the August 2011 edition of this Bulletin, not only have the multiple disasters displaced tens of thousands of people, they have also resulted in the relocation of the municipal governmental functions of the townships in and around the nuclear power plant. While the tendency to remain close to the home prefecture continues, a significantly high number of people who evacuated Fukushima are located in Yamagata Prefecture (12,973 persons), which exceeded the number in Niigata Prefecture (6,723 persons), a popular destination back in June 2011.

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.

The month was characterized by a remarkable series of heavy rainfall events from western to eastern Japan from 3rd to 31st July. In some areas, monthly precipitation totals exceeded 2 to 2.4 times the climatological normal, making the period the wettest since 1946 when records began. These phenomena are attributed to a continued tendency for large amounts of water vapor to concentrate around western and eastern Japan from two major flows – one from the west along the Meiyu-Baiu front, which stagnated along mainland Japan due to delayed northward migration of the subtropical jet stream, and the other from the south along the periphery of the North Pacific Subtropical High, which extended southwestward of its climatological extent. A persistent upper-level trough over the Yellow Sea also caused an intensification of Meiyu-Baiu front activity with enhanced vertical upward flow over western and eastern Japan, resulting in prolonged heavy rain. The delayed northward migration of the subtropical jet stream and the southwestward expansion of the North Pacific Subtropical High may be attributable to higher-than- normal sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the Indian Ocean and related inactivity of the Asian summer monsoon. 1. Climate conditions In July 2020, with the stagnation of the active Meiyu-Baiu front 1 over Japan, rainy conditions were prominent over the Kyushu region and a wide area from western to eastern parts of the country.

  • 22. Benthic Foraminifers from the Japan Sea: Leg 1281
    Pisciotto, K. A., Ingle, J. C, Jr., von Breymann, M. T., Barron, J., et al., 1992 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 127/128, Pt. 1 22. BENTHIC FORAMINIFERS FROM THE JAPAN SEA: LEG 1281 Michio Kato2 ABSTRACT Five holes were drilled at two sites in the Sea of Japan during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 128. Site 798 is located on Oki Ridge at a depth of about 900 m. Sediment age at Site 798 ranges from Pliocene to Holocene. Site 799 is located in the Kita-Yamato Trough at depth of 2000 m and below the present calcite compensation depth (CCD); the sediment ranges from Miocene to Holocene in age. Samples from all holes contain benthic foraminifers. Faunal evidence of downslope displacement is frequent in Holes 799A and 799B. The vertical frequency distribution of some dominant species shows that significant faunal changes occur in Holes 798A-C on Oki Ridge. Based on the faunal change and the thickness of sediments, it appears that the Oki Ridge was uplifted more than 1,000 m during last 4 m.y. Benthic foraminifers also demonstrate that the water depth of Site 799 rapidly changed from upper bathyal to lower bathyal during middle Miocene time. The appearance of benthic foraminifer species common to anaerobic environments suggests that the dysaerobic to anaerobic bottom conditions existed during the evolution of the Sea of Japan. Faunal distributions also suggest that the 'Tertiary-type" species recognized in the Neogene strata of the Japan Sea coastal regions disappeared sequentially from the Sea of Japan during Pliocene to late Pleistocene.
