Recently developed new roof greening systems, such as the thin-layer/Excel soil© system and the wetland type greening system, were tested at the roof top of buildings of Research Institute for Bioresources, Okayama University. After a multi-year test, these new systems have been established during high-temperature and less-rainfall summer seasons in the south Okayama region. Data indicated that roof greening effectively reduced the temperature of the concrete surface (more than 10°C). The room temperature under the green roof was also reduced both in a stock room (up to 6°C) and in an office room (about 2°C). We also provided the estimation indicating that this roof greening is useful for the decrease in CO(2) emission through the reduction of the electric power for air-conditioning in the summer. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KatsuharaMaki en-aut-sei=Katsuhara en-aut-mei=Maki kn-aut-name=且原真木 kn-aut-sei=且原 kn-aut-mei=真木 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanakamaruShigemi en-aut-sei=Tanakamaru en-aut-mei=Shigemi kn-aut-name=田中丸重美 kn-aut-sei=田中丸 kn-aut-mei=重美 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MoriIzumi C. en-aut-sei=Mori en-aut-mei=Izumi C. kn-aut-name=森泉 kn-aut-sei=森 kn-aut-mei=泉 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=TaniAkio en-aut-sei=Tani en-aut-mei=Akio kn-aut-name=谷明生 kn-aut-sei=谷 kn-aut-mei=明生 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=UtsugiShigeko en-aut-sei=Utsugi en-aut-mei=Shigeko kn-aut-name=宇都木繁子 kn-aut-sei=宇都木 kn-aut-mei=繁子 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=EnomotoTakashi en-aut-sei=Enomoto en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name=榎本敬 kn-aut-sei=榎本 kn-aut-mei=敬 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaitaniToshihiko en-aut-sei=Maitani en-aut-mei=Toshihiko kn-aut-name=米谷俊彦 kn-aut-sei=米谷 kn-aut-mei=俊彦 aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学資源生物科学研究所 en-keyword=Roof greening kn-keyword=Roof greening en-keyword=wetland type greening kn-keyword=wetland type greening en-keyword=thin-Iayer/ Excel soil© system kn-keyword=thin-Iayer/ Excel soil© system en-keyword=cooling effect kn-keyword=cooling effect END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=6 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=13 end-page=19 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1999 dt-pub=1999 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Influence of climatic factors on "crop situation index" of wheat and barley in Okayama prefecture kn-title=岡山県における小麦・大麦の作況指数変動に対する気象要素の影響 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract=1966-1995年の30年間について、岡山県の麦類の作況指数の変動と気象要素との関係について解析した。生育月別に作況指数と気象要素との関係を検討した結果、小麦では4月、6月の日照時間と正の相関、4月の降水量と負の相関が見られ、六条大麦では1月の降水日数、3月の気温、4月の日照時間と正の相関が、4月の降水量と負の相関が見られた。二条大麦では4月、5月の日照時間と正の相関、11月、4月の降水量と負の相関が認められた。このことから岡山県の麦の作況指数の年々の変動は、生育後期の日照時間と登熟期の降水量に最も深く関係していると考えられた。 kn-abstract=The influences of air temperature, precipitation, number of rainy days and sunshine duration on the crop situation index of wheat, six-rowed barley and two-rowed barley in Okayama prefecture were analyzed by using the data for the 30-year-period of 1966-1995. The crop situation index of these three crops showed high negative correlation with the precipitation in April and a positive correlation with sunshine duration in April. Precipitation over 150 mm or lesser sunshine duration under 190 hrs in April seems to reduce the yield of wheat and barley in Okayama. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KimuraKazuyoshi en-aut-sei=Kimura en-aut-mei=Kazuyoshi kn-aut-name=木村和義 kn-aut-sei=木村 kn-aut-mei=和義 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanakamaruShigemi en-aut-sei=Tanakamaru en-aut-mei=Shigemi kn-aut-name=田中丸重美 kn-aut-sei=田中丸 kn-aut-mei=重美 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学 en-keyword=Wheat kn-keyword=Wheat en-keyword=Barley kn-keyword=Barley en-keyword=Crop situation index kn-keyword=Crop situation index en-keyword=Precipitaion kn-keyword=Precipitaion en-keyword=Climatic factor kn-keyword=Climatic factor END
