The lab explores how the water cycle relates to human society and biodiversity.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the relationship with society, centered on the water cycle
Associate Professor Satoshi Watanabe, a hydrologist, studies the water cycle and how it relates to human society and biodiversity.
The lab is interested in clarifying how changes in the natural environment, such as climate change, and socioeconomic changes, such as Japan's population decline, affect the water cycle, human society, and biodiversity.
Because water cycle issues span both the natural sciences and the humanities and social sciences, the lab tackles them with an interdisciplinary approach.
In the graduate program, the lab provides courses and research supervision so that students, building on hydrology and integrating knowledge from related fields, develop the ability to analyze the relationship between the water cycle and society.
Key terms
- Hydrology
- A field of study that investigates the circulation, distribution, and movement of water on Earth
- Water Cycle
- The flow of water as it circulates through nature. This lab studies it including its relationships with human society and biodiversity
- Interdisciplinary Approach
- An approach that tackles problems by combining knowledge from multiple fields, such as the natural sciences and the humanities and social sciences
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies the water cycle and its effects on human society and biodiversity. Water issues concern not only water itself but also food and energy, and the research tools are diverse, spanning the sciences and the humanities.
