Members of Lab. Silvicutlure and Forest Ecology †
Dear colleague, †
On behalf of our research group, thank you very much for your kindness. Our university is almost safety and has no problem. Our students are fine after the big earthquake. We study and make experiments as usual. Thank you very much for your encouragement! Koike, Takayoshi
