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 in safety and has no problem. Our students and teaching staff are fine after the big earthquake. The situation of damaged atomic power supplies are still not easy but we should believe the technology for overcoming these difficulties. They are located about 650km south. We study and make experiments as usual. Thank you very much for your encouragement! Koike, Takayoshi
