Academic Degree
Ph.D.
Field of Specialization
Plant Ecophysiology, Environmental Biophysics
Outline Activities
Our primary research is related to the study of energy and mass exchange between living organisms and their environment.
Based on the field measurement and environmental chemical analysis, we want to clarify the effect of global environmental changes on the various ecological processes, especially in the extreme environmental conditions.
We are currently devoted to develop environmental monitoring networks for the Japanese mountain ranges.
