Outline of research activities
We are investigating the dynamics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the Seto Inland Sea and other areas of western Japan. In addition, clarifying the mechanism of contamination of Lake Kojima, we are conducting water quality surveys of Lake Kojima and elution experiments of organic matter and nutrient salts from the bottom sediment. We are also investigating the effects of chemical substances on the properties of aquatic organisms.

- Desired cooperation
