- In Hindu Bali, coconut trees near human settlements exhibit a particular silhouette. To understand the relationship between human activity and the landscape created by plant usage, we analyzed the extent of the cut-leaved coconut canopies and consumption pattern of coconut leaflets for religious purposes on Bali Island. Cut-leaved coconut canopies were identified in 78% of the 18 sites investigated, and 22% of coconut trees had cut leaves. Coconut leaflets, young and old, were gathered from live trees and frequently used for many offerings such as canang, penjor, and sanggah cucuk for Dewi Sri as part of plant decorations made with various colorful flowers and ornamental tree leaves. Balinese people still make traditional offerings with intact plant materials, although recently coconut leaflets are increasingly sold in markets in urban areas. We conclude that this particular coconut silhouette is a result of human ritual activities stemming from the Balinese culture.University of Hawaii at Manoa, Dec. 2015, Ethnobotany Research and Applications, 14, 405 - 421, English[Refereed]Scientific journal

- The evapo-transpirations were measured by weighing lysimeter continually at every half hour for turfs of Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis and turf of Sedum mexicanum which were important plant material for roof top gardens. Evaporation from bare soil was also measured. Air temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind and light intensity (PFFD) were measured consequently at every one hour. As results, among the environmental factors, light intensity and water vapor deficit were strongly correlated to the evapo-transpiration water amount. So, the averages were calculated at many combinations of the two factors. By the most cases except at the highest light intensity and the highest water vapor deficit, evapo-transpiration were increased according with the light intensity or increasing of water vapor deficit, and the evapo-transpiration were not so much different among Cynodon, Sedum and bare soil. The fact shows that there is no difference about the temperature effect among Cynodon, Sedum and even bare soil by water evaporation. At the highest light intensity and the highest water vapor deficit, Cynodon and bare soil accelerated the transpiration. It would lead to withering for Cynodon. But the Sedum turf decreased the evapo-transpiration and could be tolerant against dry up.The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2006, Journal of The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 69(5) (5), 431 - 436, Japanese
- Leaves size in longitudinal and transverse direction of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Weber.) were measured in every two days after removal of whole above ground organs at natural day length and at dark conditions in pots culture. Area and dry weight of each leaf was estimated non-destructively by using allometric relations, which were made from sampling leaves. The light condition caused differences in re-growth of dandelions between at natural day length and at dark condition. Light-photosynthesis curve revealed that light saturated productivity of leaves was about 13.0 CO^2μmol/m^2/sec. and that respiration rate as 0.49 CO^2μmol/m^2/sec. Quantity balance of photosynthetic production was estimated for each leaf in every day. New leaf grew rapidly and reached the maximum size in 10 days after emergence. Surplus production kept nearly balanced zero throughout this period. The balance became surplus after leaf completed the growth. Production economy during the early stage in each leaf was a self-supporting process without depending source on other organs. A leaf got about 0.3g dry weight surplus production during the life span. It is considered that these characteristics of dandelion adapted to the grassland that disturbed frequently by mowing or trampling.The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2005, Landscape Research Japan Online, 68(5) (5), 705 - 708, Japanese

- The purpose of this study was to investigate how existing bamboo forests expanded and to estimate their expansion. The bamboo forests were followed from 1968 to 2002. The data obtained were collected by using the GIS system at four points in time: 1968, 1978, 1992, and 2002. They were statistically analyzed to examine changes over time. The results showed that before 1992, bamboo forests with increasing area largely outnumbered those with decreasing area, while after 1992, the number of bamboo forests with decreasing area approached that of bamboo forests with increasing area. Then, the relative expansion rate was calculated using a logistic equation. The relative rate reached its peak in 1978, which it maintained until 1992, when the rate started to slow. When the relative expansion was evaluated in relation to land use, the relative rate of bamboo forests surrounding relatively untouched land was higher, while the rate of expansion of bamboo forests surrounding residential areas became slower. This study offers fundamental knowledge helpful in the proper management of bamboo forests.The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2004, Landscape Research Japan Online, 67(5) (5), 567 - 572, Japanese
- In this study, the relation between the structural changes of bamboo forests and the distances from the bamboo forests to the nearest residential areas was investigated in order to evaluate the relationship between human activities and the structural changes of the bamboo forests over two time periods. The results obtained from 1968 to 1978 demonstrated that the percentage of bamboo forests having a residential area within a radius of 250 m was higher in Group B, in which the area of the bamboo forests increased over the time, than in Group A, in which the area of the bamboo forests increased over the time. This indicated that the expansion of the bamboo forests was restricted. On the other hand, the results obtained from 1978 to 1992 showed that the percentage of bamboo forests having a residential area within a radius of 50 or 100 m was slightly higher in Group B than in Group A, and that of bamboo forests having a residential area within a radius of 250 m was lower in Group B than in Group A. These results indicated that bamboo forests were poorly managed at a 250-m distance from the residential areas, and then the poor management has gradually come closer to the residential areas, resulting in the expansion of the bamboo forests.The Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, 2003, Landscape Research Japan Online, 66(5) (5), 547 - 550, Japanese

Firstly,to understand characteristics of slope face collapse, we conducted mapping analysus related to its forest condition, slope gradient, altitude, surface geology and ownership. According this results,the risk of slope face collapse due to earthquakes and heavy rain was evaluated quantitatively, using a multivariate analysis with this environment information as explanatory variables. Additionally, to examine the role of attachment to local and relationship of community in concern related to forest maintenance and the utilization of resources in the Rokko mountains, Based on result of questionnaire survey,targeting Kobe residents of 20 years and above (522 subjects).Competitive research funding

As a result, Lafu-red tribe living in Northern Thailand necessarily needs cotton (Gossypium spp.) during animism ritual. Therefore, they have cultivated and maintained that one for a long time around the temple and shaman’s house. We also surveyed about the use and cultivation of ritual plants in Okinawa and Nepal in addition to Thailand. People living in Sakishima islands, Okinawa believe Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) as a one of the plants to protect itself against misfortune. On the other hand, Marigold (Tagetes spp.) is very important ritual plants for the Hindus in Nepal. It became clear that the regional landscape created by these plants linked to faith are cultivated and maintained according to high necessity.Competitive research funding

Almost species were ornamental trees, for flowers and greens, and herbaceous perennials with semi-cultivated uses sometimes as an encouraged weed. Genetic and morphoecological diversity were analyzed on several model species, including classic Japanese horticultural cultivars. Based on the discussions with invited lectures on East Asiatic ornamental species and diversity studies on crops and their wild congeners, the general pattern of evolution and disseminations in the ornamental species were summarized in the view point of conservation biology.
- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Osaka Prefecture University, 2011 - 2013We investigated how bamboo spread from a relationship of a human being and bamboo, about bamboo used by ethnic minority in Southeast Asia. A Lisu, Lafu, Hmong and Aka tribe who live in the survey area use around 10 bamboo species to suit the purpose of use. These 4 tribes play a traditional pipe instrument made by bamboo in the same way, and the materials of the pipe instrument which a Lisu, Lafu and Aka tribe use are wild bamboos, on the one hand a Hmong tribe used the cultivated temperate bamboos. The Hmong treats this instrument as the special thing which uses on funeral. Therefore the bamboo, which is the material of the instrument, is very important, and when they emigrate, the bamboos carried with them always together.
- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B), Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B), 2010 - 2012To improve the reproductive habitat of the indigenous cyprinid fishes, we modified the steep shore of thePhragmites australis reed bed into gentle slope, by scraping off the surface soil. More numerousspawned eggs and larvae of the indigenous cyprinid fishes were found in the experiment areas than incontrol of steep shore, from April to May. But, alien fish larvae dominated there in the subsequentJune to August, when the water level was kept artificially low. On the other hands, P. australis grew onthe area where water level was below the surface soil at least once, during the period it came out fromrhizome. This indicates that conservation of the indigenous fishes and plants requires not only habitatrehabilitation but also water level control based on their ecological characteristics.
