Sugio Takahashi Counter A 2 / AD in Japan - U . S . Defense Cooperation : Toward ‘ Allied Air - Sea Battle ’
نویسنده
چکیده
Since the Cold War, the Japan-U.S. Security Treaty has been the lynchpin of the regional security architecture. The alliance served as the key mechanism to ensure U.S. military presence and commitment to the Asia-Pacific. In addition to the modernization of Japan Self Defense Force (JSDF) military capabilities, U.S. military presence manifested through bases in Japan, and Japan-U.S. military cooperation based on the Japan-U.S. Defense Guidelines have been the pillars of the alliance and regional stability in the Asia-Pacific. The rise of China during a period of Japan and U.S. budget austerity requires creative discussion on defense cooperation between the two allies. China has invested a great deal of resources to develop robust “anti-access / area-denial” (A2/AD) capabilities. Furthermore, China’s rapid economic growth may cause a geostrategic “power shift” in the global strategic landscape. Even in the absence of a clear

متن کاملSynoptic-Scale Variations in the Polar Air-Mass Transformed over the Japan Sea
The present report studies synoptic-scale variations of the polar air-mass transformed over the Japan Sea, during the ‘‘East Japan Sea Observation’’ in the winters of 1976 and 1977. Rawinsonde observation data at a research vessel are used, in addition to data at operational upper observation stations and the objective analysis data. The multi-layer structure of the transformed air-mass, includ...

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 ...
متن کاملEffects of Collaboration Technology on the Performance of Tactical Air Battle Management Teams
Collaboration technologies offer the potential to enhance communication effectiveness, shared awareness, and decision quality in command and control (C2) application domains. The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the impact of one of these technologies – Instant Messaging (Chat) – on team performance efficiency in a simulated human-in-the-loop air defence C2 scenario. An air battle mana...
متن کاملSimulation and assimilation of global ocean pCO2 and air–sea CO2 fluxes using ship observations of surface ocean pCO2 in a simplified biogeochemical offline model
We used an offline tracer transport model, driven by reanalysis ocean currents and coupled to a simple biogeochemical model, to synthesize the surface ocean pCO2 and air–sea CO2 flux of the global ocean from 1996 to 2004, using a variational assimilation method. This oceanic CO2 flux analysis system was developed at the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES), Japan, as part of a pr...
