A STUDY ON RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CONSUMERS' PRIORITIZED FACTORS AND REAL ESTATE PRICES IN ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE OF CONDOMINIUMS

Prompting energy saving measures for buildings is an important policy issue because the emission of CO2 from the building sector rose 33.5% from 1990 to 2013 in Japan. The market value for environmental performance of green buildings should be recognized in order to promote voluntary environmental consideration by private developers. It is because if the pro-environmental investment by private developers reflects the real estate prices and pays off, the environmental consideration will be diffused by market mechanism. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relation between real estate prices and environmental performance of the condominiums. We utilize the assessment data from Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency (CASBEE), and analyzed relation between new-built condominium's price and assessment results of CASBEE by path analysis. The methods of this study are as follows: 1) we conducted interviews to stakeholders related to condominium design about recognition of the market value of the environmental performance. Based on the result of this survey, we set the hypothesis: The environmental performances that consumers recognize as being important have market value.) 2) We selected three areas for our analysis, which are Tokyo metropolitan area (Yokohama city, Kawasaki city, Saitama city and Chiba city), Nagoya area (Aichi pref. and Nagoya city) and Kansai area (Osaka pref., Osaka city, Hyogo pref. and Kobe city). The building type we chose for our analysis is new-built condominium that has more than 2,000 square meters of total floor area. Data resources about condominiums such as environmental performance data, price data, location data etc. are different in Japan. Therefore, we conducted matching among different types of data resources for our analysis. Research results are as follows, 1) It was clarified that the environmental performance highly regarded by consumers and real estate prices are proportional relationship. 2) The environmental performance is influenced by business scale of developers and location. In order to promote the environmental performance of which the market value is not highly recognized, it is necessary to introduce a subsidy policy.

都市資源と地域の取り組みからみた災害時自活力の評価

The aim of this study is to evaluate ‘regional self-life ability’ from the view point of city resources and regional activities in elementary school districts of Toyohashi city. On this research, ability to management shelters without support from others at the time of disaster is defined ‘regional self-life ability’. The former, Sendai city Miyagi pref. and Toyohashi city Aichi pref. was refered as cases for site survey. As a result, actually almost all city resources are not engaged to regional activities in an elementary school district. It’s important to effectively use city resources other than those specified shelter like schools at the time of disaster. It’s considered that regional self-life ability is advanced by management plan and regional activities considering land conditions of the region and city resources.

NEW DESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY TOWARDS AN ECO-FRIENDLY AIRPORT

As a means of transportation to connect the world, in particular, as a means of international human exchange, the airplane and the airport are bearing indispensable roles. The Central Japan International Airport “Centrair”, to be opened as an important hub airport in February, 2005, is now under construction over the Ise Bay, off the coast of the city of Tokoname, Aichi Pref. In charge of construction of this airport, from the early stage of the basic design, via construction, to its employment stage, “Centrair” has considered and will consider its harmonization with surrounding environment by reducing various environmental loads. In this session, we will introduce new attempts, which we have taken so far, to realize it. We hope the following presentations will help further development of the new technology.

愛知県刈谷市高津波地区における生産緑地・宅地化農地の実態と農家の意識に関する研究

This article aims to grasp a land use conversion and the farmers’ consciousness for it from at the time of the amendment to the low of productive green tract system to present. We surveyed a land use conversion and the farmers’ consciousness using land use maps and interviewing with 53 farmers at Takatsunami area Kariya City, Aichi Pref. 2 of 13 lots of the productive agriculture lands and are cancelled, 30 of 88 lots of the agriculture land for building site are diminished by land use conversion. Several restrictions of the amendment are strongly effected to the farmers’ choice for assignment for the productive agriculture land. Particularly the lowest limit of lot size are contrary to farmers traditional value and life. As a result, however the amendment to the low of productive green tract system is enacted to realize good environment for both city and farm land, it is still show contradiction to farmers traditional value and behavior, nor could realized a land use conversion for urbanization.

Preliminary Study of Mites Associated with the Japanese Honey Bee, Apis cerana japonica Radoszkowski (Hymenoptera: Apidae).

Mites associated with Apis cerana japonica were collected from worker bees and hive debris, reared in 3 regions in Japan between May, 1992 and January, 1993. Dominant species were Neocypholaelaps favas, Tyrophagus putrescentiae and Carpoglyphus lactis, which were assumed to be scavengers in the hives. Predacious and soil inhabiting mites were also collected but in small numbers. There were few mites attached to workers while hundreds of mites per gram were sometimes collected from hive debris. Two peaks in mite numbers appeared in July and October in a sampling site of Gunma Pref. but probably one peak in September in Aichi Pref. because the sampling was started in August. Few mites were collected from hives in Nagano. It was suspected that the mite numbers were influenced by temperature and precipitation. Most mites did not seem to reduce the bee populations or honey production.

Purple Spot of Aloe (Aloe arborescens Mill.) Caused by Fusarium phyllophilum Nirenberg et O'Donnell (New Disease).

A new disease causing purple spots on leaves of candelabra aloe (Aloe arborescens Mill.) was found in Tahara-cho and Irako, Atsumi Peninsula, Aichi Pref. in October 1993. A species of Fusarium was isolated from lesions of many infected plants. This fungus was found to be pathogenic on A. arborescens by inoculation of wounded and intact leaves. The fungus was identified as Fusarium phyllophilum Nirenberg et O'Donnell on the basis of cultural and morphological characteristics. The disease was also observed at every location examined in Boso, Miura, Kii, Osumi, and Satsuma Peninsulas, where the climate is similar to that in Atsumi Peninsula. Four additional isolates from Jogashima Island were also identified as F. phyllophilum. This is the first report of the disease on A. arborescens in Japan.

The Variation of Vespula sp. Eating Habits and Their Regional Distribution in Central Japan

The purpose of this paper is to investigate how people obtain and eat Vespula sp., a kind of wasp, and how such habits are distributed in Japan. A general survey based on the literature and quastionnaires given to authorities was conducted for each part of Japan, and field work was conducted by interviewing in Central Japan, where examples of this habit can be seen. Among several kinds of wasps which are eaten in Japan, especially immature Vespula have been eaten cooked in various ways. This is because people feel it more tasty than any other wasp, and they can find the nests easily, catch them without any danger and obtain large numbers of the immature wasps from one nest. This haibit is not spread all over Japan but concentrated particularly in some parts of Central Japan.The results of the survey in Central Japan are as follows: there are six kinds of foods made of Vespula, that is, raw Vespula, roasted Vespula, boiled Vespula, mixed rice maze-gohan with Vespula, sushi with Vespula and, a kind of rice cake with soy bean sauce (gohei-mochi) containing Vespula. These recipes are listed here according to increasing complexity in cooking process. People eat these foods 1) occasionally, 2) daily, or 3) daily and on special occasions. In the area where the usage of Type 1) is found, Vespula is usually roasted and eaten only occasionally. In the area of Type 2) boiled Vespula in soy sauce is eaten as a daily food and even stored in many places. It is used as a side dish for daily meals or relish for drinking. Moreover in the area of type 3) boiled Vespula can be used on special occasions such as festivals and parties. The foods which need a longer cooking process tend to be used on special occasions. The usage of type 3) is seen in eastern Mino Province (Gifu Pref.) and its surrounding regions.People obtain Vespula by hunting or purchasing. Methods of hunting are classified into four types according to ways of discovering the nests. They are: (1) discovery by chance, (2) discovery by simply running after Vespula, (3) discovery by making Vespula hold a mark and running after it, and (4) breeding after finding the nest. An assorted mix of hunting (2), (3) and (4) is adopted in eastern and southern parts of Sinano Province (Nagano Pref.) and eastern Mino Province as well as mountainous areas in Mikawa and Owari Provinces (Aichi Pref.). People who want to eat Vespula may also purchase canned Vespula or their nests with immature wasps. The former are sold as souvenirs in some cities of Shinano Province, and the latter are mainly used as raw materials for cooking in eastern Mino Province. These are regions where active hunting is also popular.Generally speaking, the intensiveness of eating and that of hunting are closely related. That is, the more positively Vespula is eaten, the more actively hunting is conducted. The kind of foods (Figure 3), their uses (Figure 4), and the hunting methods (Figure 5), show similar areal distribution. These neighbouring three regions, that is, eastern Mino, the southernmost part of Shinano and the mountainous area of Mikawa, form the core with the highest intensity. The custom becomes less pervasive in regions that are located farther from the core. This shows a kind of cultural circle with a concentric structure. This is also the core area of Vespula eating in Japan.
