Floods have catastrophic effects worldwide, particularly in monsoonal Asia. This systematic review investigates the literature from the past two decades, focusing on the use of remote sensing (RS), Geographic Information Systems (GISs), and technologies for flood disaster management in South Asia, and addresses the urgent need for effective...

Water cycle resilience represents a vital part of sustainable water resources management for a region with severe water vulnerability issues. However, despite their importance, a current lack of systematic monitoring mechanisms has contributed to an insufficient grasp of their distribution in relation to water resources management practices, as...

韓国原子力協会に招待され、2024年12月に韓国慶州市のHwabaek国際コンベンションセンターにて開催されたGlobal Nuclear Energy & Safety Confex (NES 2024)に出席した。 韓国の原発政策は、2022年に発足した尹錫悦政権が文在寅前政権の脱原発から180度方針転換し、国内の新増設と国外への原発輸出拡大へと舵を切った。 この会議には韓国内外の原子力産業から75社、160の展示ブース、約5,000名（主催者発表）が参加した。

【開催趣旨】我々は、自然環境や緑環境からいろいろな恩恵を享受している。最近では、SDGs(持続可能な開発目標)を達成するためのさまざまな活動により、生物多様性や気候変動への対応など環境についての注目や関心・理解が高まり、人々が身近な自然環境や緑環境について学び、″生態系サービス″につて考える機会も増えている。多くの都市で緑が減りつつある中で、我々の一番身近なグリーンアセットである街路樹は、しかしながらその実際の評価や価値の判断が難しい。”街路樹の価値”を正しく評価することは、その重要性を理解し、効果的な管理や保全・保護活動へと繋がる大事な基盤であるといえる。そこで、本研究会では、「京都市の研究事例」に着目し、プロジェクト担当者による現場実践の研究報告を基調としながら...

The idea of integrated water resource management (IWRM) for comprehensive and sustainable management of river and lake basins has been present in academia and policy-making for over half a century. Despite its presence in academia and policy-making for some time, IWRM has seen some major bottlenecks, such as a lack of comprehensive and holistic...

Japan is considered a water-rich country. Yet, recent socioecological history suggests that the country has undergone some drastic changes in its water environment as an extended effect of its post-war industrialization and urbanization. On the other hand, Japan also houses ingenious and time-tested methods of water management in its traditional...

Coastal cities in Vietnam are increasingly impacted by rapid environmental changes and the growing frequency and magnitude of hydrometeorological hazards, such as extreme precipitation and droughts. One of the most significant challenges posed by climate change is the imbalance of water resources availability between the wet and dry seasons. Both...
