LIFE BELOW WATER

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 [...]

The detailed mechanisms that lowered the atmospheric CO2 concentrations by approximately 100 ppm during glacial periods remain a crucial open question. It is hypothesized that increased ocean alkalini [...]

Technology to preserve fruit and vegetables with active edible coatings: controlling the antifungal persistence of natural antimicrobial ingredients

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

In this study, the novel edible coating materials will be developed by using computer simulation. The backbone material of the coating agent is a polymer such as gelatin or starch, which is added func [...]

Effects of fragmental microplastics on lipid metabolism, behavioral traits, and gut microbiome balance in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes)

Department of Bioresource Sciences, Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental Sciences

With increasing global plastic use, large amounts of microplastics (MPs) have entered aquatic environments, posing ecological risks due to their bioaccumulation and toxicity. While many studies focus [...]

Air temperature is rising due to global warming and sea surface temperature (SST) is also increasing. It has been reported that increasing SST has a strong influence on recent heavy rainfall. Then und [...]

The stratosphere is an atmospheric region of the Earth between 10 km and 50 km altitude, above the troposphere where humans live. Planetary waves, which are atmospheric waves with long planetary-scale [...]

129Xe-NMR has the potential as a Pore-Shape evaluation method.When the Nanopore “Shape” Evaluation Method for disordered complex Porous Materials is established, it will not only improve the cur [...]
