Muko City, Kyoto
Muko city, Kyoto 1 Section 1 Nature and(Geographical Environment and Weather) 1. Geographical Environment Muko city is located at the southwest part of the Kyoto Basin. Traveling the Yodo River upward from the Osaka Bay through the narrow area between Mt. Tenno, the famous warfield of Battle of Yamazaki that determined the future of this country, and Mt. Otoko, the home of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine, one of the three major hachimangu shrines in Japan, the city sits where three rivers of the Katsura, the Uji and the Kizu merge and form the Yodo River. On west, Kyoto Nishiyama Mountain Range including Mt. Oshio lays and the Katsura River runs on our east. We share three boundaries with Kyoto city - the northern and western boundaries with Nishikyo-ku, and the eastern boundary with Minami-ku and Fushimi-ku. Across the southern boundary is Nagaokakyo city abutting Oyamazaki-cho which is the neighbor of Osaka Prefecture. The city is approximiately 2km from east to west and approximiately 4km from south to north covering the 7.72km2 area. This makes us the third smallest city in Japan after Warabi city and Komae city. Figure 1-1-1 Location of Muko city (Right figure (Kyoto map) : The place of red is Muko city) (Lower figure (Japan map) : The place of red is Kyoto) N W E S 1 Geographically, it is a flatland with the northwestern part higher and the southwestern part lower. This divides the city coverage into three distinctive parts of the hilly area in the west formed by the Osaka Geo Group which is believed to be cumulated several tens of thousands to several million years ago, the terrace in the center, and the alluvial plain in the east formed by the Katsura River and the Obata River. -

Seasonal Variations of Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions Around Sakurajima Detected by Two Lidars
atmosphere Article Seasonal Variations of Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions around Sakurajima Detected by Two Lidars Atsushi Shimizu 1,* , Masato Iguchi 2 and Haruhisa Nakamichi 2 1 National Institute for Environmental Studies, Tsukuba 305-8506, Japan 2 Sakurajima Volcano Research Center, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University, Kagoshima 891-1419, Japan; [email protected] (M.I.); [email protected] (H.N.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-29-850-2489 Abstract: Two polarization-sensitive lidars were operated continuously to monitor the three-dimensional distribution of small volcanic ash particles around Sakurajima volcano, Kagoshima, Japan. Here, we estimated monthly averaged extinction coefficients of particles between the lidar equipment and the vent and compared our results with monthly records of volcanic activity reported by the Japan Meteorological Agency, namely the numbers of eruptions and explosions, the density of ash fall, and the number of days on which ash fall was observed at the Kagoshima observatory. Elevated extinction coefficients were observed when the surface wind direction was toward the lidar. Peaks in extinction coefficient did not always coincide with peaks in ash fall density, and these differences likely indicate differences in particle size. Keywords: volcanic ash; aerosol; lidar; extinction coefficient; horizontal wind Citation: Shimizu, A.; Iguchi, M.; 1. Introduction Nakamichi, H. Seasonal Variations of Volcanic eruptions are a natural source of atmospheric aerosols [1]. In the troposphere Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions and stratosphere, gaseous SO2 is converted to sulfate or sulfuric acid within several around Sakurajima Detected by Two days, which can remain in the atmosphere for more than a week. -

Future Design: Bequeathing Sustainable Natural Environments and Sustainable Societies to Future Generations
sustainability Review Future Design: Bequeathing Sustainable Natural Environments and Sustainable Societies to Future Generations Tatsuyoshi Saijo 1,2 1 Research Institute for Humanity and Nature, Kyoto 603-8047, Japan 2 Research Institute for Future Design, Kochi University of Technology, Kochi 780-8515, Japan; [email protected] Received: 28 June 2020; Accepted: 27 July 2020; Published: 11 August 2020 Abstract: “Future Design,” a new movement among Japanese researchers and stakeholders, asks the following question: What types of social systems are necessary if we are to leave future generations sustainable environments and societies? Looking at the human activity impact on the global environment and society, I ask: Why is this society we live in generating a series of future failures that will cost future generations so much? I then argue that the source of such a society could be liberalism and that the market and democracy derived from it will not help avoid these future failures. To achieve this, one must design social systems that activate a human trait called futurability, where people experience an increase in happiness because of deciding and acting toward foregoing current benefits to enrich future generations. One method to study these is by employing “imaginary future generations”. Here, I present an overview of the theoretical background of this method, the results of relevant laboratory and field experiments, and the nature of relevant practical applications implemented in cooperation with several local governments. Keywords: future design; imaginary future generation; futurability; intergenerational sustainability dilemma; time inconsistency problem 1. Introduction “Future Design” is a movement that studies the types of social systems that would ensure sustainable environments and societies for future generations. -

Geomorphological Evolution and Sediment Budget Analysis with the Uji River, Kyoto
D-7 Fourth International Conference on Scour and Erosion 2008 GEOMORPHOLOGICAL EVOLUTION AND SEDIMENT BUDGET ANALYSIS WITH THE UJI RIVER, KYOTO Ryoukei AZUMA1 and Hideo SEKIGUCHI2 1Member of ISSMGE, Assistant Professor, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University (Shimomisu, Yoko-oji, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto 612-8235, Japan) E-mail:[email protected] 2 Member of ISSMGE, Professor, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University (Shimomisu, Yoko-oji, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto 612-8235, Japan) E-mail:[email protected] This paper starts with presenting field evidences that illustrate the occurrence of significant bank erosion in a reach of the Uji River. It then demonstrates that the resulting escarpment was not a mere local adjustment, but is an indicator as to how extensively the Uji River has undergone appreciable amounts of channel erosion over the entire 15.2km-long section. The datasets on which the discussion is based include: the cross-channel topographical data (200m intervals along the river course) in 1967, 1979 and 2006 made available from the Yodogawa Office, MLIT. A careful geomorphological analysis of the datasets in terms of GIS, permitted the determination of tempo-spatial changes of areal sediment storage in the Uji River. When integrated over the entire river course, the overall volume of sediment loss due to erosion proved to amount to 3.1 ×106 m3 in the period from 1967 up to 2006. A discussion is made to identifying its practical implications for future riverine management. Furthermore, a discussion is made of the linkage between the extent of the channel erosion and the depositional environments of the sediment that constitutes the boundary of the river channel. -
