LIFE ON LAND

This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms determining flowering time in plants using morning glories. Previous research on the genus Hemerocallis suggested a potential link between the circadian rhy [...]

Extract organisms from deep soils (20–100cm) across Japan using an upgraded Soil-washing method. Record detailed environmental data like soil hardness, temperature/humidity, and vegetation to evaluate [...]

Theoretical analysis of the evolution of diapause with sex-specific plasticity of seasonal polyphenism in the butterfly, Eurema mandarina

Department of Systems Life Sciences, Graduate School of Systems Life Sciences

In order to theoretically clarify the conditions under which coexistence of diapause-form and non-diapause-form males observed in the butterfly (Eurema mandarina) in late autumn evolves, we will devel [...]

The global ocean deep-water circulation delivers heat content, nutrients, and many other chemicals worldwide, thus important in affecting the ecosystem and climate. Among them, the Pacific is a specia [...]

Conservation and restoration of salt marshes are global challenges, and understanding their ecological functions is essential for achieving these goals. In Japan, salt marshes dominated by the common [...]

生物は微小な構成単位を集合させることによって材料を成し、集合構造に起因した優れた機能を創発させる。このプロセスは常温常圧、水系といった極めて温和な環境下で達成されることから、持続可能な社会の実現に向けて大きな注目を集めている。一方で、繊維状の物質は互いに絡まりあうため、複雑な構造を構築することが困難であった。本研究では、集合構造化の場として流体界面に着目し、ナノ繊維の緻密な構造化を通し、集合構造か [...]

Plants change their root structure in response to varying nitrogen (N) availability in order to utilize N in soil efficiently. The root of the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana consists of a single ma [...]

Who Should Capture the Deer? Reconsidering a Sustainable Wildlife Management System Based on a Framework: 'self-help, mutual assistance, and public support'

Department of Agro-environmental Sciences, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences

The damage caused by Japanese deer is becoming increasingly serious. To date, deer capture has largely depended on local hunting clubs, but the number and aging of hunters have become critical issues, [...]
