Academic literature on the topic 'Nabari, Japan (City)'

AbstractThis paper is an expedition study analysing the features of trips of ‘nature-based tourists’ from amongst daytrip tourists in Japan with the aim of seeking for expansion possibilities of Japanese-type ecotourism. Approximately 400,000 people visit Nabari City in Mie Prefecture, the target destination in this paper, on an annual basis with the aim of enjoying the nature. Samples used for analysis in this paper have been collected from 437-day trip visitors from amongst 500 visitors to major sight-seeing spots of Nabari City from October to December 2014. It has been found through analysis that whilst nature-based daytrip visitors in Japan were satisfied with natural environments themselves, they were less satisfied with regards to activities and services during their trips. Cluster analyses for grasping tendencies per markets were performed and disclosed.

Heavy rain with Typhoon 18 threatened the Nabari River Basin, Kansai region, with inundation early on the morning of October 8, 2009. The Nabari River is a tributary of the Yodo river basin that contains Osaka and Kyoto and runs through Nabari City, which is a residential zone a commutable distance from Osaka city. In the upper reaches of the Nabari, there are three multipurpose dams – Shorenji Dam, Hinachi Dam, and Murou Dam – that are operated by the Kizugawa Integrated Dam Control and Management Office (KIDCMO), a branch office of the Japan Water Agency (JWA). Since it rained heavily downstream from the three dams, regular operation of the dams complying with given flood control regulations appeared unable to save Nabari City from inundation. The JWA and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) therefore conducted collaborative operation of the three dams to avoid inundating the city. In this case, flood control operation of the three dams commenced at an early stage before inflow reached defined flood discharge in consideration of the water level of the Nabari River, rainfall conditions, and the capacity of reservoirs. During operation, discharge from dams was changed in a timely manner and appropriately through collaborative operation of the three dams in order to maximize the effectiveness of all flood control capacities of reservoirs based on the latest rainfall forecast technology and runoff analysis. The use of improved rainfall forecast technology and runoff analysis models enabled effective application of flexible operation protocols. It is estimated that this operation has resulted in a 1.5 m decrease in the water level at the Nabari design control point and saved approximately 1,200 households from inundation. Considering recent climate change, it is possible to have extreme rainfall more often. The proof of the adaptability of this flexible operation is quite meaningful not only for flood damage mitigation in the downstream but also for future prospects of flood control by dams.

To understand the algae migration characteristics in the fresh water red tide, we performed a field survey in the Shorenji Reservoir located in Nabari City, Japan. From the analysis of the field data, it is found that the patterns of vertical distributions of the indices representing biomass are very different in the morning and the afternoon. Since some water quality indices have reverse fluctuations between the surface and the bottom layer in respect of the time series changes and the total biomass of the vertical water column is relatively constant, it is concluded that vertical and daily biomass variation of red tide alga is caused by its daily migration, that is the movement from the bottom layer to the surface in the morning and the reverse movement in the afternoon.

Flies are vectors belonging to the phylum Arthropoda and the order Diptera which can also act as nuisance animals. Green fly is one of the main vectors in the spread of various types of diseases such as: diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, typhus, and viral digestive tract diseases. To prevent and minimize the occurrence of health problems in humans, control efforts are carried out using natural ingredients that function as organic insecticides that are environmentally friendly and do not cause health hazards later, namely by using fragrant pandan leaves (Chrysomya megacephala). The aim of the activity is to increase the knowledge and skills of the community on how to make cheap and environmentally friendly organic insecticides. The implementation method is in the form of counseling and demonstration of making organic insecticides. Results: Community service activities were carried out at the palapa restaurant, Jalan Arifin Achmad, East Sidomulyo Village, Marpoyan Damai District, Pekanbaru City. The participants of the activity were traders, totaling 10 people. Before being given the counseling the participants were unable to answer the questions given but after being given the counseling almost 90% of the participants were able to answer the questions correctly. There is an increase in public knowledge and understanding about the dangers of flies to health and the benefits of fragrant pandan leaves as an organic insecticide. Recommendation: It is hoped that the community will be able to anticipate fly control by using organic insecticides that are cheap, easy and environmentally friendly. The public can also make this fragrant pandan leaf powder product as a household business that can be sold.
