The 23rd Pacific Science Congress 
"Science, Technology, and Innovation: Building a Sustainable Future in Asia and the Pacific" on 13-17 June,2016 

http://www.pacificscience.org/congress2016.html

■Session #: 6-5

■Session Title:
 Science for a Huge Disaster-Lessons from Great East Japan Earthquake and Others in Asian Countries

■Date:16,June,2016

■Venue:Academia Sinica Taipei, Taiwan

■Convener: Kazu Kogure,  the University of Tokyo, Japan   
   Suchana Apple Chavanich,  Chulalongkorn University,Thailand

■Purpose:

On March 11, 2011, a huge earthquake and subsequent tsunami hit the north eastern part of Japan and caused serious damages to the people, towns,industries and marine environments. Japanese scientists launched a 10-years project,“Tohoku Ecosystem-Associated Marine Sciences (TEAMS)” supported by MEXT in January 2012 and have conducted multidisciplinary research for clarifying the changes of the ecosystems and also for helping local people especially fishermen to restore their industries.
The aims of this session are, first, to show our scientific knowledge obtained by TEAMS and related projects after disasters, and second, to clarify the significance and future direction of related works by exchanging experiences and ideas among scientists from different countries.
