Year Published:2008
Author: Yoichi Sonoda・Tadashi Kuramoto
The objective of this study was to clarify the effects of forest isolation on the species composition of non-flying mammals. Three study sites were selected for each
isolation level, and automatic cameras were installed on animal trails from April to October in 2005 and 2006 to analyze the species composition and abundance of
non-flying mammals.

Author:Ryo Saeki・Daisuke Hosogi・Masahiko Matsue
In order to actively convert slopes dominated by Amoerpha fruticosa L. to multi-species dominated vegetation, it is necessary to remove Amoerpha fruticosa L.
efficiently because of its high sprouting ability. Therefore, we set up an experimental area where we managed the vegetation of L. japonica, and measured the number
of dead L. japonica and the amount of sprouting to verify the effectiveness of the treatment.

Research on the effect of introducing greenery on the impression of historic streets
Year Published:2008
Author:Tsuneaki Fukui・Masahiko Matsue・Mitsuhiko Naito
In order to contribute to the study of policies for greening streets with historical impressions, we proposed a framework for discussing the effects of roadside
conditions and the introduction of plantings, and verified the effects of the introduction of plantings on the historical impressions. First, the greening of
traditional streets was reviewed, and then the historical street types were classified based on the factors that determine the historical impression of the street and
the condition of the streetscape, and experiments were conducted to evaluate the impression of the introduction of tall trees, shrubs, and flowers.

Evaluation of the results of seeding works with hard fruits on wet cut slopes.
Year Published:2008
Author:Daisuke Hosogi・Katsumori Nakamura・Shou Kameyama
We conducted a study on the introduction of hard fruits by seeding on a wet cut slope in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. The revegetation goal was to establish an initial
herbaceous community, followed by establishment of a forest with pioneer woody plants and establishment of a community in which hard fruits take precedence over hard
fruits in the long term. Vegetation matting, injecting vegetative substrate, and placing hard fruits in paper tubes and spraying them with vegetative substrate were
adopted as methods of revegetation.
