Current status and challenges in operating flood early warning systems at the local level in Japan
Flood early warning systems (FEWS) are crucial in reducing flood loss and damage, especially under increasing flood risks due to climate change. Currently, there is limited literature holistically investigating all components of FEWS, namely Risk knowledge, Monitoring and Forecasting, Warning Dissemination, and Preparedness and Response Capabilities. There is also a lack of in-depth understanding of FEWS operation at the local level where local g…
Evaluating the quality of life for sustainable urban development
As urbanization is rapidly progressing worldwide, the cities need to assess their quality of life (QOL) not only to check their infrastructure but also to keep pace with the changing citizens' sense of values and lifestyles. We propose an integrated method to evaluate urban QOL from the detailed spatial aspects of a city with the subjective preferences of its citizens. In this study, we collected the spatial data of urban setting attributes at a …
Simultaneously tracing the fate of seven metals at a global level with MaTrace‐multi
Keeping materials in use for a long time is key to reducing primary material demand and environmental impacts of resource use. Recycling yields of metals should only be limited by thermodynamically unavoidable losses of the remelting processes for well-defined scraps. In practice, however, additional dissipative losses for metals occur due to incomplete collection of end-of-life products, insufficient waste sorting, remelting of contaminated or d…
Lost Rivers
Early modern Tokyo was a city of water with rivers and canals crisscrossing the city and connecting its commercial centers. However, modern Tokyo's rivers have disappeared-filled in, or converted into concrete-lined sewers. This article explores what happened to these waterways during Japan's period of rapid economic growth. It focuses on the 1961 policy decision by city planners and water engineers that resulted in the rivers-to-sewers transitio…
Global land use of diets in a small island community
Modern dietary habits in communities are linked and are part of the global food supply chain. To achieve sustainable food production and consumption, communicating the impact associated with food production and dietary choices at community level to consumers is important. However, previous footprint studies have primarily focussed on food consumption at the national level and neglected community–level consumption activities. This study surveyed t…
Forecasting Replacement Demand of Durable Goods and the Induced Secondary Material Flows
The aim of this article is to propose a method for forecasting future secondary material flows by combining a product lifetime distribution analysis with a waste input‐output analysis and present a simple case study of automobiles. The case study demonstrates that the proposed method enables us to estimate replacement demand of new vehicles, number of end‐of‐life (EOL) vehicles arising from the aging of vehicles, volume of shredder scraps recover…
Unintentional Flow of Alloying Elements in Steel during Recycling of End‐of‐Life Vehicles
Alloying elements in steel add a wide range of valuable properties to steel materials that are indispensable for the global economy. However, they are likely to be effectively irretrievably blended into the steel when recycled because of (among other issues) the lack of information about the composition of the scrap. This results in the alloying elements dissipating in slag during steelmaking and/or becoming contaminants in secondary steel. We us…
Induction of pluripotent stem cells from fetal and adult cynomolgus monkey fibroblasts using four human transcription factors
Hybrid Input-Output Analysis as a Tool for Communication Among Scientists of Different Disciplines
The Waste Input‐Output Approach to Materials Flow Analysis
A general analytical model of materials flow analysis (MFA) incorporating physical waste input‐output is proposed that is fully consistent with the mass balance principle. Exploiting the triangular nature of the matrix of input coefficients, which is obtained by rearranging the ordering of sectors according to degrees of fabrication, the material composition matrix is derived, which gives the material composition of products. A formal mathematica…
A waste input–output life-cycle cost analysis of the recycling of end-of-life electrical home appliances
Input‐Output Analysis of Waste Management
A new scheme of hybrid life‐cycle assessment (LCA) termed the waste input‐output (WIO) model is presented that ex‐plicitly takes into account the interdependence between the flow of goods and waste. The WIO model has two distin‐guishing features. First, it expands the Leontief environmental input‐output (EIO) model with respect to waste flows. It turns out that the EIO model is a special case of the WIO model in which there is a strict one‐to‐one…
An interindustry approach to analyzing economic and environmental effects of the recycling of waste
A Nonhomothetic Generalized Leontief Cost Function Based on Pooled Data
Factor demand studies of Komiya, Ozaki, Lau and Tamura based upon detailed cross-section data on individual production units have found that the nonhomothetic factor limitational ( NHT-FL) demand system, a nonhomothetic version of the Leontief fixed coefficient model, well explains the data. These results, however, have mostly been ignored in the current literature on flexible functional forms, and in fact none of the well-known nonhomothetic fle…
