Lectures were given by Professor Nobuyuki Takahashi, Hokkai-Gakuen University, on &#8220;The Natural Environment of the Daisetsuzan High Mountains\u201d and by Nature Photographer Yasuyuki Watanabe on &#8220;The Ecology of Alpine Insects on Daisetsuzan and the Impact of Global Warming.\u201d Professor Emeritus Ken Sato, Hokkai-Gakuen University, gave a lecture on &#8220;Alpine plants of Daisetsuzan,\u201d and Assistant Professor Toshio Sone, Institute of Low Temperature Science, Hokkaido University, gave a lecture on &#8220;Current Status of Permafrost on Daisetsuzan.\u201d<br \/>\nThey presented the changes in the alpine zone of the Daisetsu Mountains over the past 40 to 50 years from various aspects, including natural geography, insects, vegetation, and permafrost. They also reported on the similarities with the nature seen in the Arctic terrestrial regions, especially in the tundra regions, and its relationship with the temporal changes.<br \/>\nIwahana then commented on the &#8220;Summer Mountain Weather in the Daisetsu Mountains&#8221; as secondary information from permafrost observations on Daisetsuzan, followed by a general discussion on the future of Daisetsuzan research. A question-and-answer session from the audience and online participants led to a lively discussion, including comments from citizen researchers, young researchers, and graduate students. The importance of networking among researchers in Daisetsuzan research was also reaffirmed. We would like to continue providing opportunities for such networking by holding similar lectures in the future.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The following is a report on the event by ARC&#8217;s Foreign Researcher, Dr. Iwahana.
