Profile 【 Display / hide 】

  • Tomohiro Ichinose is a Japanese scientific researcher, who was born in Chiba, Japan on 23th July 1968. He took the degree of master from the Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences, the University of Tokyo. From October 1996 to September 1998 he studied as a visiting researcher at Munich Technical University. He got the degree of Ph.D (agriculture) from the Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences, the University of Tokyo in March 1997. The doctoral dissertation title is "Methods of Environmental Evaluation for Avian Conservation". At that time, he focused on the relationship between bird distribution and environmental factors (ex. land use types, vegetation structure, forest fragmentation and so on). After that, he became an assistant professor, later associate professor, at the Institute of Natural and Environmental Sciences, University of Hyogo. He investigated dragonfly and damselfly species on water storage ponds in Awaji Island and bird species diversity in a city center of Nishinomiya and Osaka City, and analyzed long-term land use changes in Awaji Island. Now, he is a professor at Shonan Fujisawa Campus (SFC), Keio University. Recently, he has some projects about ecological network planning methods in metropolitan Cities, landscape changes in suburban and rural areas, depopulation and aging problem in remote areas of Japan. Since the great disaster on 11th March 2011 he has supported the reconstruction of Kesennuma City with students and teachers of SFC, which was heavily damaged in the city center by the huge tsunami. He was a guest researcher at Vienna University of Technology from September 2012 to August 2013 and guest professor at the Department of Asian and North African Studies, Ca’Foscari University Venice from December 2012 to March 2013. Dean of Faculty of Environment and Information Studies from October 2021. President of Assciation of Rural Planning, Japan from April 2019.

  • Environmental Factors Affecting the Reproductive Rate of Urban Northern Goshawks

    Journal of Raptor Research （Journal of Raptor Research)  53 （ 4 ） 377 - 386 2019.11

    Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work,  ISSN  08921016

    　View Summary

    Urbanization has increased with human population growth and the responses from raptor species are gaining more attention from both researchers and the public. Northern Goshawks (Accipiter gentilis) now breed in urban areas in Japan and Europe; however, there are few studies examining the factors that influence their reproductive rate in urban areas. We investigated the reproductive rate (number of fledglings per nest) of the Northern Goshawk population in an urbanized area of Japan from 2014 to 2016, and used a binomial mixture model to examine the relationship between the number of fledglings per nest and environmental factors such as nesting and foraging environments, anthropogenic disturbance, predation risk, and intraspecific competition. The goshawk nesting success rate from 2014 to 2016 was 71.6%, with an average reproductive rate of 1.7 fledglings per occupied nest. The percentage of canopy cover of nesting stands had a significant positive effect on fledgling numbers, and the number of adjacent occupied nests had a significant negative effect on fledgling numbers. The positive effects of canopy coverage may be explained by the protection offered by canopy against direct sunlight, wind, and rain. The negative effect of the adjacent occupied nests may result from an increase in the amount of time and energy goshawks spent in territory defense, and a decrease in available foraging habitat due to intraspecific competition.

  • Predicting the distribution of released Oriental White Stork (Ciconia boyciana) in central Japan

    Yamada Y., Itagawa S., Yoshida T., Fukushima M., Ishii J., Nishigaki M., Ichinose T.

    Ecological Research （Ecological Research)  34 （ 2 ） 277 - 285 2019.01

    Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work,  ISSN  09123814

    　View Summary

    The Oriental White Stork (Ciconia boyciana) is one of the species threatened by mainly anthropogenic factor and their habitats are considered to be conserved. The first reintroduction of the species in Japan occurred in 2005. But as the species’ natural wetland habitats are declining, the birds now prefer to forage in rice paddies. Thus, restoring the paddy-dominated landscape is key for further success in the reintroduction program. In addition, a quantitative method is urgently needed to assess how much suitable habitat is available and where it is located. In this study, we identified environmental factors that affect the distribution of the Oriental White Stork and produced the first predictive spatial distribution map using 2-year satellite tracking data of reintroduced individuals. The maximum entropy (MaxEnt) approach was used to model the species’ distribution at the landscape scale (1 km × 1 km grid cells). We identified six relevant environmental variables. Our results highlight the proportion of area of rice paddies as alternative wetland habitat as the most influential variable affecting the distribution positively. Landscape diversity represented by a complex mosaic of paddies and forest is also important for the species, as total length of paddy-forest edge also had a positive effect on habitat suitability. Our predictive distribution map cannot entirely provide distribution; however, it may be valuable information when considering where should be conserved as habitat to maintain the Oriental White Stork population in Japan.

  • A Century of Land-use Changes and Economic Damage in Kesennuma City Caused by the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami

    ICHINOSE Tomohiro, ITAGAWA Satoru, YAMADA Yumi

    Journal of Environmental Information Science （一般社団法人 環境情報科学センター)  2019 （ 1 ） 53 - 59 2019

    Joint Work,  ISSN  0389-6633

    　View Summary

    <p>A magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck off northeastern Japan on 11 March 2011. The subsequent tsunami wrought destruction on a massive scale. Kesennuma City was one of the most heavily damaged regions in Miyagi Prefecture, where more than 1000 people were killed by the tsunami and resulting fire; 215 people are still missing. Here we analyzed historical landuse changes in the tsunami-affected area of Kesennuma city center, Miyagi Prefecture, using topographic maps from 1913 and 1952 and vegetation maps from 1979 and 2011. The area consisted of 7.3% urban land use, 10.5% dry field, 55.5% rice paddy field, 4.7% wetland, 0.3% grassland, 5.3% forest, and 16.3% water body in 1913 and 76.1% urban land use, 1.7% dry field, 17.9% rice paddy field, 0.9% wetland, 1.6% forest, and 1.6% water body in 2011. During the period, the area of urban land use increased more than 10-fold, while that of rice paddy field sharply decreased from 55.5% to 17.9%. The 77 Bank estimated that the total economic damage in Kesennuma City was 232.4 billion yen, representing annual production value of all companies located in the damaged area. Our calculations for urban land use, dry field, and rice paddy field showed losses of 112.7 billion yen and 69 million yen due to the tsunami in the areas of urban and agricultural land use, respectively.</p>

    Type of Award： Award from Japanese society, conference, symposium, etc.

    　View Description

    本研究では、緑地環境評価をその空間レベルによって、マクロスケール・メソスケール・ミクロスケールの３つにわけて、統計的手法を用いた群集レベルでの評価を行う手法が提案した。マクロスケールでは、対象地域全体を、対象となる生物群集の分布に基づいて区分し、対象生物にとって重要な景観構成要素を抽出することに成功した。メソスケールでは、マクロスケールで重要と判定されたの景観構成要素タイプについて、その質を規定する要因を明らかにする手法を示した。さらに、広域的な視点では均一にみなし得る空間も、よりミクロな視点ではしばしば不均一であることから、ミクロスケールでは、こうした不均一性が生物群集に及ぼす影響を分析し、その成果を環境評価に反映できることを明らかにした。また、スケールによらない要因として、動物生態的要因を挙げ、個々の分類群あるいは種に典型的に見られる特質を明らかにすることが、それぞれのスケールにおける評価を補完できることを示した。これらの個々の成果は、欧米の先進国に比べて研究蓄積が少なかった我が国において先駆的な成果となったと言える。
