AboutAbout the lab
Understanding the water cycle comprehensively
The Hydrological Science Lab comprehensively studies the water cycle in nature and its physical, chemical, and biological processes.
It belongs to the Global Environmental Studies major in the College of Geoscience. Each faculty member studies a different area: atmospheric water and evapotranspiration, water use, water environment issues using tracers, and assessment of the water cycle using tracers and numerical models.
Main graduation research topics include changes in the heat budget and evaporation of Lake Kasumigaura, tracking the water cycle with stable isotopes, and the origin and geochemical characteristics of hot spring water.
Key terms
- Evapotranspiration
- The combination of evaporation from the ground and water surfaces and transpiration from plants. It refers to the flow of water returning to the atmosphere
- Tracer
- A substance that serves as a marker for tracing the origin and movement of water. Components contained in the water are used as clues
- Numerical model
- A system that reproduces phenomena such as the movement of water through computer calculations
ResearchResearch themes
The Hydrological Science Lab comprehensively studies the water cycle in nature and its physical, chemical, and biological processes. Each faculty member works on atmospheric water and evapotranspiration, water environment issues using multiple tracers, and assessment of the water cycle using tracers and numerical models.
