Research on Water Cycle Including Groundwater

Groundwater & Water Cycle

We are advancing research related to the water cycle in Kumamoto and other regions. In Kumamoto specifically, groundwater is a vital water resource, making its understanding and future prediction urgent issues. (Content will be added in the future)

1. Analysis of Nationwide Geotechnical Information

Nationwide Boring Log and Soil Test Data

Boring logs and soil test data from across Japan are available on the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's National Geotechnical Information Search Site "KuniJiban". By analyzing this vast amount of geotechnical data, we are promoting the use of geotechnical information for water cycle problems, such as estimating hydraulic conductivity.
