Research interests

I have conducted research into soils, using mathematics and physics as the basis. Perhaps it is because I was born into a farming family, but I have been unable to leave the soil. From the time I was a graduate school student, I have regarded soils as an ideal madreporite, and have been involved in experiments and analysis of the movement of substances and heat within soils, particularly frozen soil. That was grown into my experience to conduct the surveys of the permafrost soil of Siberia. Recently, I have returned to my original inspiration and have been reexamining the marvel of the living thing that is soil, and the relationship between soil and the environment.

I have experienced the difference in research systems in Japan and the United States. Keenly feeling the need to create a new Japanese research system, I have been devoting my efforts to that end every day. Observing global trends since the terrorist attacks of September 11, I have realized that the American type is not necessarily the best, and continue seeking the ideal approach for Japanese research.\ Perhaps a pattern in my activities was detected, as I received the opportunity to learn about the behavior of bureaucrats at the Council for Science and Technology Policy in the Cabinet Office for two years, starting in 2003. That enabled me to experience another culture different from that of the university, and my inquiry into the nature of research grew stronger.

Another issue is the contamination of farmland in connection with the March 11 Tohoku disaster and nuclear accident. The sustainable management of agricultural land is required to secure a safe food supply. I believe it is truly important to create agricultural technology by combining the traditional low-tech techniques indigenous to an area with up-to-date information technology.
