Ecological Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies ecological engineering, exploring how coastal and river ecosystems and people can coexist.
AboutAbout the lab
Aiming for a society where nature and people coexist
The Ecological Engineering Lab researches ecological engineering, centered on fieldwork, in coastal, river, and nearshore environments.
Its scope is broad, ranging from the conservation and restoration of habitats for organisms on tidal flats and sandy beaches, to water resource management, laws and institutions for environmental planning and assessment, and regional planning for fishing villages.
Its joint research is carried out not only with researchers at universities and research institutions, but also with a diverse range of partners, including local residents, NPOs, NGOs, and private-sector engineers.
The lab's goal is a society in which people live in coexistence with the natural environment and ecosystems.
Key terms
- Ecological engineering
- An approach that applies civil engineering techniques to protecting the natural environment and ecosystems as well.
- Marine protected area
- An area established to protect marine nature and resources. This lab studies its planning, designation, and management
- Environmental assessment
- Investigating and evaluating in advance what effects development and similar activities will have on the environment
ResearchResearch themes
The lab takes the view that, in ecosystem conservation, the solution lies less in studying the organisms themselves than in what is done about human society. On that basis, it studies the planning, designation, and management of marine protected areas; the conservation and restoration of coastal and river environments; the sustainable use of natural resources across the sea, rivers, and forests, together with community development; and laws and institutions concerning coasts, water resources, and related areas.
