Of these species, T. hakonensis is widely distributed in Japan and is important in commercial and recreational fisheries. Two species, T. hakonensis and T. brandtii, exhibit anadromy. In this paper, information on the protistan and metazoan parasites of the four species of Tribolodon in Japan is compiled based on the literature published for 106 years between 1908 and 2013, and the parasites, including 44 named species and those not identified to species level, are listed by higher taxon as follows: Ciliophora (2 named species), Myxozoa (1), Trematoda (18), Monogenea (0), Cestoda (3), Nematoda (9), Acanthocephala (2), Hirudinida (1), Mollusca (1), Branchiura (0), Copepoda (6 ), and Isopoda (1). For each taxon of parasite, the following information is given: its currently recognized scientific name, previous identification used for the parasite occurring in or on Tribolodon spp.; habitat (freshwater, brackish, or marine); site(s) of infection within or on the host; known geographical distribution in Japan; and the published source of each locality record.

Hassan, Takanori Ishikawa, Singo SEKI and A. Mahmuda Laboratory of Aquatic Ecology, Faculty of Agriculture, Kochi University, B-200 Nankoku, Kochi 783-8502, Japan Abstract: Analyses of partial mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences support the classification of Aburahaya (Rhynchocypris lagowskii) from the Sea of Japan and Pacific Ocean. To investigate genetic population structure, we examine nucleotide sequence of the cytochrome b region. In this study we found three major geographical groups. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that the population of the group 3 differentiation is 0.8759 ± 0.0333. The group 2 differentiation is 0.5333 ± 0.1801 which is collected from the Kamishyou River (Toyama Prefecture) and Hakui River (Ishikawa Prefecture) populations. The neighbor-joining tree of the mitochondrial DNA haplotypes for all specimens constructed from the Kimura’s two parameter. Among these 24 localities being clustered into 3 major geographic groups in NJ tree mtDNA segment and NJ tree mtDNA haplotype. No significant difference for the population pair wise FST was detected among these localities (P>0.05). The most parsimonious network of mtDNA haplotype of aburahaya 24 localities, estimated using the TCS algorithm. In this network showed three geographical groups. Halpotype 1-29 is one group, haplotype 30-33 is group 2 and haplotype 34-54 is group 3.

  • Washing-Up and Movement of Litter Along the Fuji Coast Captured by Live-Camera
    Littoral 2010, 12009 (2011) DOI:10.1051/litt/201112009 © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2011 WASHING-UP AND MOVEMENT OF LITTER ALONG THE FUJI COAST CAPTURED BY LIVE-CAMERA Masahiro Ito, Department of Environmental Science and Technology, Meijo University [email protected] Abstract The total amount of litter washed up along the Japanese coast approaches nearly 25,000 tons （150,000m3）. In this study, we discuss the process and timing of the deposition of litter from the sea surface onto a beach by large waves using images from live cameras located along the Fuji coast. Live camera images recorded over a period of 14 months from September 2007 to November 2008 were used in this study in addition to records of wave height, wave period, wind direction, wind velocity, and tide level. Analysis of these images and relevant oceanographic data showed that: (1) the floating litter on the sea surface in the nearshore area was washed up on the sandy beach by long waves caused by typhoons, (2) on the specified day the wind drifted the litter floating on the sea towards the shore, (3) the tidal change did not contribute to deposition of litter on the beach and (4) the clean up of litter was carried out by the appropriate section of the prefecture and city, and required a period in 1 to 5 months per event. Key words: Drifting litter, live camera, washing-up of floating litter, Fuji coast. 1. Introduction Along a beautiful 20 km stretch of the Fuji coast in Japan (Fig.1), between the Fiji and Kano river mouths, large amounts of litter are washed up on occasion by swells generated by the passage of typhoons or low pressure systems.

  • Recent Studies on the Late Quaternary Landform Evolution of Riverine Coastal Plains in Japan
    Geographical Review of Japan Vol. 69 (Ser. B), No. 2, 134-143, 1996 Recent Studies on the Late Quaternary Landform Evolution of Riverine Coastal Plains in Japan Masatomo UMITSU Department of Geography, Nagoya University, Chikusa, Nagoya 464-01, Japan Abstract: Recent studies on the evolution of Japanese riverine coastal plains and sea-level changes in the late Quaternary are reviewed. Studies on the landforms and sediments of the plains have been done in many riverine coastal plains using various research techniques. Landforms and sediments of the riverine coastal plains have changed remarkably since the last glacial maximum. Several studies have clarified the paleogeography of the plains, and also pointed out that the landform evolution of the plains has been influenced by minor fluctuations of sea-level changes in the late Holocene. Key words: late Quaternary, Holocene, landform evolution, riverine coastal plain, sea-level change ten by Ota et al.

Also, in accordance with the local accessibility plan created by municipalities, focused and integrated promotion of accessibility is carried out in priority development district; to increase “caring for accessibility”, by deepening the national public’s understanding and seek cooperation for the promotion of accessibility, “accessibility workshops” are hosted in which you learn to assist as well as virtually experience being elderly, disabled, etc.; these efforts serve to accelerate II accessibility measures (sustained development in stages).
