Late Quaternary landform development of the Kanto Plain -- History and Future of Volcanic Disasters in and around the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, Central Japan -- Climate variations in Tokyo since the Edo period -- The Current Status of and Prospects for Biodiversity in Tokyo -- Satoyama landscapes in Tokyo -- The Religious Space of Edo, considering the Distribution and Functions of Temples and Shrines -- History of Urban Water Use in Tokyo with Focusing on Surface and Subsurface Water as Water Sources -- Food Problems and New Challenges of Urban Agriculture in Tokyo -- Spatial Patterns of Population Change in Central Tokyo since the Period of the Bubble Economy -- Central Tokyo as a Place for Raising Children while Working -- Past, Present, and Future Views in Tokyo -- Transport Planning and Management in the Tokyo Metropolitan Region : Its History, Current Situation, and Future Perspectives -- The Changing Spatial Economy and Cultural Industries in Tokyo -- Regional Characteristics of Urban Tourism in Tokyo -- The History of Electric Enterprises and Power Supply Development in Tokyo since the Meiji Era -- Analysis of Current Municipal Solid Waste Management in Tokyo and Future Prospects -- Status of Tokyo : Comparing Tokyo with Major Cities of the World.
This book examines Tokyo's changes, current challenges, and future trends through a new kind of regional geography and serves as an important source of comprehensive information about the past, present, and future perspectives of Tokyo as a global city. Regional geography relies on two main approaches. The traditional one addresses each geographical element of a region individually and in depth, in a descriptive and static manner. The other focuses on a region's specific phenomena and realities as a starting point and proceeds to identify the region's constituent elements and their interactions, which it records and explains in a systematic and dynamic manner. The present volume, unlike its predecessors, relies on the dynamic approach and endeavors to offer a fresh view of Tokyo's new and diverse geographical realities, analyzed in a holistic, systematic manner allowing identification of its specific features. The book covers a broad range of topics including landform variations and volcanic activity, biodiversity concerns, transportation management, waste management, population issues, religious functions, and urban tourism, all of which facilitate understanding of the unique characteristics of Tokyo. Extensive views from different fields of studies make the book a valuable reference to comprehend both the development of Tokyo into a global city and its sustainability.
