Agricultural Implications of the Fukushima Nuclear Accident (III): After 7 Years 141-152 2019年1月
We have investigated the redistribution dynamics of radiocesium deposited after the nuclear power station accident in March 2011 in a forested catchment located in North Fukushima over a four-year period (2012-2015). At the catchment scale, 137 Cs...
The effects of the Japanese horned beetle larvae on the transfer of 137Cs from a contaminated leaf litter to the leaf vegetable, komatsuna (Brassica rapa var. perviridis) was studied. Feces of the larvae which were fed 137Cs-contaminated leaf litt...
The article “A paradox of latitudinal leaf defense strategies in deciduous and evergreen broadleaved trees”, written by Saihanna Saihanna, Tomoe Tanaka, Yu Okamura, Buntarou Kusumoto, Takayuki Shiono, Toshihide Hirao, Yasuhiro Kubota, and Masashi ...
The classical “low latitude–high defense” hypothesis is seldom supported by empirical evidence. In this context, we tested latitudinal patterns in the leaf defense traits of deciduous broadleaved (DB) and evergreen broadleaved (EGB) tree species, ...
