Petrogenesis of banded pumices from some volcanoes in Hokkaido, Japan

Some Tectonic Aspects of Quaternary Volcanoes in Japan

Part 1 of this paper is concerned with various types of deformation of volcanic cones as listed in Table 1. In regard to the crustal displacements before and after eruptions, the local upheaval and fracturing near crater remain as a permanent deformed topography, but the areal upheaval and subsidence before and after eruption are believed to be a reiterative movement caused by increase and decr...

Characterization of sapoviruses detected in Hokkaido, Japan.

Age and growth of marbled sole Pleuronectoes yokohomae in Kikonai Bay, Hokkaido, Japan

Age and growth of marbled sole Pleuronectes yokohamae werer estimated from growth increments in otolith. The samples were collected with commercial set nets and an experimental bottom trawl net in Kikonai Bay and the nearby waters, southern coast of Hokkaido, from May 1994 to July 1995. Monthly changes in the percentage occurrence of oltoliths with translucent edge in one band and the marginal ...

Seroepidemiology of human bocavirus in Hokkaido prefecture, Japan.

A new human virus, provisionally named human bocavirus (HBoV), was discovered by Swedish researchers in 2005. A new immunofluorescence assay using Trichoplusia ni insect cells infected with a recombinant baculovirus expressing the VP1 protein of HBoV was developed, and the levels of immunoglobulin G antibody to the VP1 protein of HBoV in serum samples were measured. The overall seroprevalence r...
