Shigeto Yanai, Professor
0 student voices
This lab studies landscape management: how residents, companies, and government can cooperate to regenerate and make use of green spaces and open spaces. Through this work, the lab develops theory for building sustainable communities and improving quality of life. The lab also does hands-on work in local communities. Professor Yanai serves as an expert committee member on municipal green plans and on the planning, management, and operation of urban parks.
Tomoko Takeuchi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Environmental Planting Lab studies urban green space policy, public-private partnerships, planting management, and the regeneration and improvement of parks and gardens. Drawing on Associate Professor Takeuchi's experience in government, covering park and green space policymaking, planning, design, construction, and maintenance, the lab aims to solve social issues facing urban parks and green spaces. Students enter container garden works in contests such as the Hibiya Park Gardening Show.

Assistant Professor Omi's specialty is landscape architecture, and lists environmental landscape architecture, environmental planting science, and landscape planting management as areas of expertise. The research keywords listed in the faculty directory are landscape planning, urban greening, environmental education, and local environmental conservation.
Junhua Zhang, Professor

The Environmental Cultural History Lab approaches living spaces from the standpoint of the humanities, built around the three keywords of environment, culture, and history. A distinctive feature of the lab is that it examines various problems of landscape and cities through philosophy, art, cultural anthropology, and related fields. The lab does not treat landscape or environment as something to be handled physically, nor does it quantify and generalize them; instead, it takes the human spirit and the workings of the mind as its clues. In light of individual problems, the lab considers the process by which people have cultivated the world around them to make it livable and have passed down accounts of their lives. The content introduced here is based on the lab's 1996 description published on its website.
Shiro Takeda, Professor
0 student voices
This lab specializes in landscape design, garden design, and urban planning. Professor Takeda studied architecture at university, then studied landscape architecture at a graduate school in the United States, and has worked on architectural and landscape design at design firms in Japan and the United States. Students in the Environmental Landscape Design area submit design proposals to events such as student competitions of the Japanese Institute of Landscape Architecture, and have won awards.
Akira Kato, Associate Professor

The Green Space Environment and Resources Lab studies how to capture detailed forest structure using high-resolution laser scanning. Its main fields are forest remote sensing, GIS, and landscape ecology. In recent years, the lab has established a method for automatically conducting individual tree inventories from terrestrial laser scanning data, and uses it to estimate woody biomass in satoyama (traditional managed woodland near farming communities) and to quantify ecosystem services. Currently, the lab is deploying terrestrial laser scanners in forests around the world, including tropical and temperate forests, and working to establish on-site monitoring techniques that can be used to validate satellite observations.
Terumasa Takahashi, Professor
0 student voices
Professor Takahashi of the Green Space Environment and Resources Lab specializes in ecosystem ecology, revegetation engineering, and landscape gardening. The professor's work has covered a wide range of green spaces, from mountain forests to satoyama, urban parks, and coastal tidal flats. The lab investigates the properties and improvement of the soil that serves as the foundation for planting (planting substrate), as well as how materials cycle within green spaces (material cycles). The professor always tries to consider how current education and research can be put to use and be useful in real-world settings.
Katsuki Umeda, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Associate Professor Umeda of the Green Space Environmental Systems Lab specializes in economic geography. The associate professor analyzes the restructuring taking place in dairy and dairy processing industries and in vegetable horticulture from a spatial perspective. In Tuscany, Italy, and in New Zealand, the lab studies how farms sustain their livelihoods by making use of organic farming and agritourism. Associate Professor Umeda belongs to the Faculty of Education and has an office on the Nishi-Chiba Campus, and is in charge of teaching in the Landscape Science Course of the Graduate School of Horticulture.
