The observation field of Okayama local meteorological observatory was moved to the Tsushima Campus of Okayama University from the downtown area of Okayama City in March, 2015. Comparison between the air temperature records measured at meteorological agency station and the records at Tanjo Pond in Tsushima Campus, showed 0.56 ℃ drop in annual average before and after relocation. Moreover, comparison between the records of Okayama local meteorological observatory and that at the surrounding meteorological observing 9 stations showed 0.55 ℃ drop in annual average. Those results suggest that the relocation dropped annual average of air temperature by about 0.6 ℃. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiuraTakeshi en-aut-sei=Miura en-aut-mei=Takeshi kn-aut-name=三浦健志 kn-aut-sei=三浦 kn-aut-mei=健志 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=UedaYu en-aut-sei=Ueda en-aut-mei=Yu kn-aut-name=上田悠生 kn-aut-sei=上田 kn-aut-mei=悠生 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MoritaHidenori en-aut-sei=Morita en-aut-mei=Hidenori kn-aut-name=守田秀則 kn-aut-sei=守田 kn-aut-mei=秀則 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=ChikamoriHidetaka en-aut-sei=Chikamori en-aut-mei=Hidetaka kn-aut-name=近森秀高 kn-aut-sei=近森 kn-aut-mei=秀高 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurokawaMasahiro en-aut-sei=Kurokawa en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name=黒川正宏 kn-aut-sei=黒川 kn-aut-mei=正宏 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakashimaYoshitaka en-aut-sei=Nakashima en-aut-mei=Yoshitaka kn-aut-name=中嶋佳貴 kn-aut-sei=中嶋 kn-aut-mei=佳貴 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=OkiYoko en-aut-sei=Oki en-aut-mei=Yoko kn-aut-name=沖陽子 kn-aut-sei=沖 kn-aut-mei=陽子 aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=2 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=3 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=4 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学環境理工学部 affil-num=6 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=7 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 en-keyword=Okayama Local Meteorological Observatory kn-keyword=Okayama Local Meteorological Observatory en-keyword=relocation kn-keyword=relocation en-keyword=drop in air temperature kn-keyword=drop in air temperature END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=22 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=65 end-page=71 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2017 dt-pub=201703 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Geospatial Preference for Asparagus Fields in Thailand kn-title=タイのアスパラガス産地における圃場の選好条件 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=A questionnaire survey by interview to the farmhouse in Nakhon Pathom Province in Thailand had been carried out, where the asparagus farming as the cash crop have spread rapidly. Valid response from 24 farmers were obtained and Asparagus had been planted in 30 plots within 74 plots (40.5%). As the result of statistical analysis on the geospatial preference for asparagus fields by logit model in which the geospatial characteristics of plots such as elevation, slope, curvature, acreage and distance from farmhouse were adapted as the explanatory variables while the category of the cultivated crops in there was adapted as the independent variable, it became clear that as for the asparagus plots, small lots were more preferred. On the other hand, the geospatial preference for asparagus plots such as elevation, slope, curvature and distance from farmhouse did not became clear. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MoritaHidenori en-aut-sei=Morita en-aut-mei=Hidenori kn-aut-name=守田秀則 kn-aut-sei=守田 kn-aut-mei=秀則 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HironakaShoya en-aut-sei=Hironaka en-aut-mei=Shoya kn-aut-name=弘中奨也 kn-aut-sei=弘中 kn-aut-mei=奨也 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsumotoYuki en-aut-sei=Matsumoto en-aut-mei=Yuki kn-aut-name=松本雄樹 kn-aut-sei=松本 kn-aut-mei=雄樹 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Graduate School of Environmental and life Science, Okayama University kn-affil=岡山大学大学院環境生命科学研究科 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=倉敷市役所 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=復建調査設計株式会社 en-keyword=Land use kn-keyword=Land use en-keyword=GIS kn-keyword=GIS en-keyword=Thailand kn-keyword=Thailand en-keyword=Asparagus kn-keyword=Asparagus en-keyword=logit model kn-keyword=logit model END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol= cd-vols= no-issue= article-no= start-page=76 end-page=92 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2014 dt-pub=201406 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Simplified approach to evaluate total external loading to Kojima Lake en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NISHIMURAShin-ichi en-aut-sei=NISHIMURA en-aut-mei=Shin-ichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OKUBOKenji en-aut-sei=OKUBO en-aut-mei=Kenji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MORITAHidenori en-aut-sei=MORITA en-aut-mei=Hidenori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KOSKIAHOJari en-aut-sei=KOSKIAHO en-aut-mei=Jari kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TATTARISirrka en-aut-sei=TATTARI en-aut-mei=Sirrka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil= END
