GEOBIOCAL investigation @Kinki and Chugoku
(Jul. 20-28, 2014)


As part of the GEOBIOCAL project, a joint research project with the Federal University of Paraná, we investigated travertine and tufa in the Kinki and Chugoku regions. First, we visited Shionoha Hot Spring in Nara. It became quite hot inside the microelectrode tent.
Next, we investigated the Shimokuraida tufa in Okayama.
Finally, we investigated Kibedani Hot Spring in Shimane.
After the survey, we returned to the university to hold a report session on our results.
