Brown Bag Seminar
Q-AOS Brown Bag Seminar Series The 238th Seminar "Toward Sustainable Lowlands: Visualizing Water Circulation in Saga and Indonesia Using Simple Water-Level Gauges"
The Q-AOS Brown Bag Seminar Series will start every Wednesday at lunchtime from April 2021. The purpose of this webinar series is to provide opportunities not only to learn research related to SDGs in Asian and Oceanian regions, but also to expand your research network across different academic areas.
The webinar is free, available in English and Japanese, and open to everyone! We hope you all come and join us!

Abstract
Lowlands are areas with elevations that are similar to, or lower than, the water levels of surrounding rivers and coastal waters. In such areas, even slight differences in elevation can greatly affect water flow and water levels.
In southern Saga Prefecture, agricultural waterways known as“ creeks” still support irrigation and drainage and, through these functions, play an important role in controlling water levels. To understand these water environments, it is important to continuously monitor changes in water levels and visualize water circulation.
This seminar introduces efforts in the Saga lowlands using simple, low-cost, and easy-to-use water-level gauges that can be deployed at multiple sites. It also touches on lowland research in Indonesia, which provides useful insights for considering the subtropicalization of Kyushu, and introduces the significance of understanding water circulation as a foundation for future studies on sustainable lowlands.
