Tropical cyclone track forecast experiments were conducted using the National Centers for Environmental Prediction Global Forecast System with the initial conditions from three numerical weather prediction centers, to distinguish between tropical cyclone track forecast errors attributable to the initial state uncertainty and those attributable to the model imperfection. The average position error was reduced by replacing the initial conditions from the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts. The northward recurvature of Lupit (2009) was not reproduced with initial conditions from the Japan Meteorological Agency. It was consistent with the preceding study, indicating sensitivity to the initial state. The sensitivity to the model and the initial state was obtained for Parma (2009), as opposed to the conclusion of the previous study, where Parma was discovered to be insensitive to the initial state, and the error was assumed to come from the model difference. Insensitivity to the initial vortex structures in the predicted tracks for Parma indicates that the error in the steering flow formed by the environmental field around tropical cyclone contributes to the northward bias.

Precipitation in East Africa has the potential to enrich the lives of or bring ruin to millions of people that rely heavily on agriculture. Precipitation itself is in turn reliant on regional and extra-regional factors. The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) is such a factor and in this paper, its influence on the short rains that occur from October to December is studied through a quantitative assessment of information flow (IF) between the Dipole Mode Index and stations scattered throughout Burundi, Rwanda, and Uganda. Although it was initially thought that the African Great Lakes would have had an effect on the sensitivity of a given station's precipitation to the IOD, clear patterns on which stations were most sensitive or insensitive to IOD activity could not be properly identified. This is perhaps due to the plethora of atmospheric and topographic factors that contribute to local precipitation and as such, additional research is strongly encouraged to elucidate the reason, if any excluding statistical artifacts, for observed discrepancies.

The effect of reward and information on subsequent intrinsic motivation were investigated. In Exp. 1 subjects were given information that they were high or low in interest in the task. High-information subjects were more intrinsically motivated than low-information subjects. The effect of information was discussed in terms of self-perception theory. In Exp. 2 subjects were assigned to one of three conditions : (1) no reward condition, (2) reward condition, (3) reward with information condition. In the 3rd condition subjects were given information that rewarder had no intention of controlling subjects with the reward. The reward condition was found to reduce intrinsic motivation relative to no reward condition. But reward condition accompanied with the appropriate information did not decrease intrinsic motivation relative to no reward condition. The result suggests that the effect of rewards on intrinsic motivation depends on the interpersonal context of rewarder and rewardee.

Discrete time Markov maintenance models are coupled with the theory of control of queues. Each system has an operating machine, spare machines and a repair facility. A decision maker has the option of opening or closing the repair shop when there are machines waiting for repair service, as well as the option of repairing or leaving an operating machine. A two-dimensional control limit policy is defined, and sufficient conditions for the optimality of a two-dimensional control limit policy are obtained for each model.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has emerged as the leading cause of dealth worldwide today. Lowering circulating total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is one of the most effective approaches of CVD prevention. Dietary guidelines and health organizations approved using plant sterols (PS) as the alternative to conventional method in attenuating circulating TC and LDL-C levels and risk of CVD. However, current findings apprear to be controversial on the efficacy of PS. Giving the rise of the field “Nutrigenetics”, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) such as CYP7A1-rs3808607 have been identified that strongly associate with cholesterol metabolism in response to PS intake, towards causing inter-individual variations. This review article aims to discuss the efficacy of dietary PS in managing cholesterol levels based on findings from recent studies. The scope includes reviewing evidence on supporting the efficacy, the metabolic claims, inter-individual variations as well as sitosterolemia associated with PS intake.

Adam Smithʼs concept of fellow-feeling can be divided into two types: sensibility for others and affective feeling with others. This paper focuses on the former and explores its characteristics. Fellow-feeling as sensibility for others is not only the kind of beneficence that is part of humanity but also the sense of what is owed to fellow-creatures. For Smith, this is the basis of public welfare. Although Smith thinks this sensibility is a universal feeling in principle, it could be felt strongly among those who share common sensibilities and inclinations, namely, by his definition, countrymen. This implies that Smithʼs concept of justice, which depends on countrymenʼs fellow-feeling, could be practically formed and maintained in each country.

健康の維持増進を目的とした従来の栄養学は,食品の栄養成分に焦点を当てた,食事の質と量に関する研究が中心であった。一方,食物の消化,吸収,代謝機能には日内リズム(サーカディアンリズム)が存在し,睡眠覚醒リズムや体温のリズムなどとともに,体内時計によって制御されている。従って,これらのサーカディアンリズムの乱れは,睡眠障害や生活習慣病などの様々な疾患を引き起こすことが知られている。最近になって,時間栄養学という研究分野が注目されている。時間栄養学とは,食品の機能性を利用した睡眠の改善や,生体リズムを利用した食リズムの改善などによって健康機能の向上を目指す学問のことである。本稿では,時間制限摂食による糖尿病や肥満症などの生活習慣病の改善効果について最近の知見を紹介する。

Implementation of training system of the ability to plan and manage social consensus building projects at the level of local government officials have already started all over the country. However, the consciousness of officials for social consensus building has not yet been grasped. This study will show the analysis of questionnaire by newly employed officials in Hiroshima prefecture. The purpose of the study is to make a suggestion toward the subject of acquiring the ability for the local officials to make a collaborative work with multi stakeholders.

看取りのない高齢者の孤独死は避けたい死と考えられてきました。ところが,個の自立している(QOLの高い)高齢者の死は「ひとり死」であり,看取りの有無に関係なく,「満足死」,「幸せ死」,「安寧死」です。一方,個の自立してない(QOLの低い)高齢者の死は「一人死」であり,看取りの有無に関係なく「孤独死」,「孤立死」です。これより単身高齢者には定期的な見守りとともに,自立心向上への支援が必要です。

The common idea that a gene encodes a phenotypic character has played an important role in the theory of evolution, one of whose origin is population genetics. Today, the relationship between a gene and a phenotype is sometimes interpreted informationally, i.e., a gene conveys phenotypic information. In this study, the nature of genetic information about phenotypes is discussed by considering teleosemantics. It shows that phenotypic information is not carried by a single gene, but by a genome containing multiple genes and the regulatory regions which form the related gene networks.
