Rikubetsu Town is the periphery of the two center: Obihiro City and Kitami City. We measured that how thetown depend on the two center. The results are as follows: Rikubetsu belongs to the Ashoro Town commuter area. Thus, in the commuter, Rikubetsu has links with the Tokachi region. Similarly, in visiting relatives and friends, Rikubetsu has strong links with the Tokachi region. On the other hand, Rikubetsu belongs to the Kitami trading area and medical care zone. Rikubetsu residents, as well as shopping goods, which depend on grocery shopping in Kitami. In conclusion, Rikubetsu has traditionally stronger ties between Tokachi region. However, because of motorization and changes in retailers, in some aspects, Rikubetsu became positioned on the periphery of Kitami.

The Miyaji Formation typically exposed along the coast of the Futami area, Kumamoto Prefecture, is characterized by sandy facies in the lower part and muddy facies in the upper. Abundant shallow marine bivalves are usually developed in the several horizons of the lower part. Among the identified species, Pterotrigonia (Pterotrigonia) pocilliformis, Goshoraia minor, Anthonya monobenses are the most diagnostic. From the bivalves faunal aspects and lithological character, the formation is comparable to that of the Lower Hibihana Formation of the Monobegawa Group in Shikokku. Detailed geologic survey has led to the discovery of the Miyaji Formation except for the type locality. The distribution of the Miyaji Formation offers the key to an understanding of the structural movements in this region. The Miyaji Formation is cut by several NW-SE faults. Judging from the field evidence, these faults can be determined to be associated with the geological structure of the Amakusa Islands

Mukujima Island is 16 kilometers northeast of Tsukumi City, Oita Prefecture, and is geotectonically occupied by the Chichibu Terrain of the Outer Zone of Southwest Japan. In this area the Upper Mesozoic strata are exposed in Jimukujima and Okimukujima Islands, and are lithostratigraphically divided into four formations, i.e. Mukujima, Jimukujima, Okimukujima and Bungo Formations in ascending order. In this paper, the stratigraphy is described in some detail, with remarks on correlation, and the features of the bivalve faunas are made clear. The Mukujima Formation, about 65m thick, is characterized by the predominance of feldspathic quartzsandstone. Several shallow marine bivalves which were conspecific with the bivalves from the Torinosu Group in Sakawa, Sakamoto, Yatsushiro and Tanoura areas, and Soma Group (Nakanosawa Formation) in Soma area, and the fragmental plant fossils occur from this formation. From the faunal aspects and lithological characters, the Mukujima Formation is best comparable to the Torinosu Group in Shikoku, and is assigned to the Late Jurassic. The Jimukujima Formation about 550m thick is in fault contact with the Mukujima Formation. The formation is characterized by the frequent occurrence of red-colored rocks, with intercalation of brackish-water shell beds. From the fossil-contents (Ryoseki fauna) and lithological characters, the formation is comparable to the Ryoseki Formation of the Monobegawa area, the Koshigoe Formation of the Haidateyama area, the Togawa Formation of the Gokase area and the Kohara Formation of the Yatsushiro area.

The advection and dispersion of Asian dust events from China to the Pacific Ocean around Japan in 2010 were investigated using the Multi-functional Transport Satellite (MTSAT) data. Aerosol Vapour Index images, taking the brightness temperature difference between 11 μm and 12 μm, were very effective for monitoring the Asian dust phenomenon in the East Asia region, with their capacity for detection during the day or night. The results were compared with suspended particulate matter concentrations measured at surface stations in Kyushu and with ground-based observations of sky in Kumamoto and Kagoshima. When a dense dust band was crossing over Japan, the rapid increase of SPM concentrations was observed at stations located in the dust path. The observed increase of SPM concentrations corresponded to the distribution of Asian dust shown in AVI images, the visibilities recorded by the Janan Meteorological Agency and the atmospheric turbidity shown in the ground-observation images.
