A paper led by Masaki Tsujimura, Professor in the Environmental Dynamics Prediction Division, has recently been featured in a press release. In this study, river discharge and water isotope ratios were analyzed in adjacent alpine catchments on Mt. Norikura in the Northern Japan Alps to investigate water circulation processes in alpine environments. The results revealed ……

A research paper led by Professor Tsutomu Yamanaka of the Division of Environmental Dynamics Prediction has been featured in a University of Tsukuba press release. A research team investigated magmatic water contained in hot springs and volcanic fumaroles around the Kussharo Caldera in Hokkaido. By comparing numerical simulations of isotopic changes in water during the ……

Research conducted by Professor Tsutomu Yamanaka of the University of Tsukuba’s Institute of Life and Environmental Sciences and the Center for Research in Isotope and Environmental Dynamics (CRiES) has been featured in the January 2026 issue of Nikkei Science under the special topic “Approaching Deep Fluids.” The feature explores the relationship between deep fluids circulating ……
