Soil

There are many kinds of soils on this Earth. But do we know how and what for those soils are made?
We examine the placemaking for sustainable food production on devastated desert area, and for the creation of "soil" resource on protoplanets like moon and Mars.
We also try to truly understand the "another Earth," which is constructed with the soil environment.

 

Themes:


Soil aggregation with the use of natural humic substance and carbide

Early soil formation from rock forming minerals by humic substance and carbonic water

Resolution of plant bioactive mechanism by humic substance

Resolution of carbon and water circulation in a desert environment




Self-organization
Microorganisms and plankton are so small but can do an advanced transformation and sophisticated manufacturing of matter that human beings can never do.
We make nanosize organic / inorganic particles by forming fine air bubbles and emulsion and providing plasma to the reaction field.


 

Themes:


Making of microscopic bubbles and nanoemulsion

Making of spherical particles by the reacted interface of fine heterophase liquid

Composition of organic compounds from primordial gas by using underwater plasma

Resolution of the refinement of heterophase liquid by analysis of PIV



Forests, rivers and the sea

Organic matters and nutrient generated in the forests are deliverd through rivers to the sea, and bring rich aquatic resources. We chemically verify and evaluate the connection between basin zone and ocean area to understand the rich natural environment of the Boso Peninsula. And from its results, we suggest the need of uniform management of forests, rivers and the sea.

 

Themes:


Verification of the connection of between forests and the sea of the Boso Peninsula

Verify the buffering function of forest near the river mouth and Banzu dry beach to chemicals

Resolution of the mechanism of iron leaching from iron-containing minerals with fulvic acid

Evaluetion of the usage of underground ancient seawater as a resource and the effect on surficial environment
