Outline of research activities
Based on fieldwork in flood zones from the Himalayan highlands above 4,000 meters to the zero-meter flood zones, we are trying to elucidate the actual disaster conditions and land development processes in each region. In contrasting between regions, we emphasize primary data and attempt to relativize the issues.
