2004/7/6-8
7/5 the First day
- Prof Yasunari
- GAME overview.
- What is connections of Kanae-san's study and mine?
- Thing is not that easy...
7/6: the second day
*Carbon cycle session
- Prof. Peter Fabian
- Global Change.
- NO2 monitoring: China and Japan is large NO2 emission countries.
- Green house gas increase and temperature rise.
- Vegetation periods become longer.
- Global Carbon Cycle.
- "Transition from fossil to renewable energy" is the only way
out of the dilemma.
- Opinion: Typical Europian point of view. Assert US attitude. I
like it.
- Prof. Robert Dickinson: GCP (global carbon project)
- Carbon: Science themes
- Source and Sink
- Interaction
- management
- Yoshiki Yamagata, NIES
- Current and future emission is fixed. Solve the equation.
- Georgii Alexandrov
- Rong Fu (female)
- Biamass burning.
- Boundary layer diurnal change of CO2 emission and absorption.
- David Crisp (NASA)
- Emission is definately increasing. But, atmospheric CO2 change
is quite variable.
- The A-Train:
- OCO (CO2 satellite observations) data will be available
within several months
- Dickinson (Dai is co-author)
- Urban surface model
- SiBUC is far ahead of this research!
Particle transport session (Yellow sand)
- Masahide Ishizuka
- Sand saltation occurs in dry condition, but if the particle
size is too small, the difference is small.
Regional Characteristic & Water Problems
- Suga-kun
- R. Kawasaki
- H. Tanji
- VW for fish.
- Assume fish comsumption is equal to that of chiken, VW is
calculated.
- To analyze scenarios of landuse changes (or any comparison
study), fish VW should be important.
- But, this method is limitless. One need to set the thereshold
(or criteria or standards).
- S. Kaneko
7/8: the third day
CEOP
Water Resources session
- S.K. Gupta
- Large number of isotope observation. Once it's implemented,
India's observation will become tremendous.
- Currently, primitive analyses yet.
CEOP
- Massimo Bollasina
- Jun Matsumoto
