    Seika-en, which is called “The Flower Field”, was made as a villa garden of Matsuura family, the feudal lord of Hirado (now in Nagasaki prefecture), by Matsuura 35th. In the garden, a monument revealing 10 most impressive scenes of Seika-en shows us the pastsight of the garden. According to the monument, the garden was completed in 1810 afterremoving old trees for 20 years. The designing of the garden is original one, featuring European style flower bed. I studied on the designing of Seika-en through historical materials, pictorial drawings, and field survey.

    The Dutch factory garden at Dejima in Nagasaki is considered the oldest Western style garden in Japan. In this study the author concluded 6 periods of the Dutch factory garden consernning its form by means of analyzing 70 paintings of Dejima. They are (1) the period of eary garden construction, (2) the first period of Western style formal garden, (3) the latter period of Western style formal garden, (4) the transition period of geometric to landscape garden, (5) the period of landscape garden, and (6) the period of the ending of the garden. It is noted that the garden had formal changes from geometric style to landscape style similar to the European gardens in 18th century.

    It is well known that the beginning of mass movements in the modern Japan was born in Taisho Democracy period (1905-25). A city-wide riot arised at Hibiya Park on 5 September 1905, which was so-called Hibiya Incendiary Incident to protest the Russo-Japanese Peace Treaty. Hibiya Park, opened as a public park in June 1903, was in a sense the symbol of the government office quarter and then became an expressional place of mass political campaigns. Since then mass movements, such as Movement to protect constitutional government, Rice riots, Universal Manhood Suffrage Movement and so on, had beenarising mainly at public parks in each prefecture. It specially seems that the first May Day held at Ueno Park on 2 May 1920 was a symbolic political movement. The masses politically and socially began to be conscious of existence of public parks during the process of rising mass movements.

    The vegetation of the hills of the Boso Peninsula in the middle Meiji era was studied mainly through the maps surveyed in 1880's and the reconnaissance notes to support the maps. Questions are that there are some unclear marks on vegetation in them and that how accurate they are and so on. The notes and the drafts of the maps are very helpful to study the questions. The results show that the vegetation there more than a century ago was greatly different from today: there were wide areas of grass land along with pine forests and low forests mainly consisting of Quercus species, and large high forests were usually seen only in the goverment-owned places.

    The purpose of this thesis is to study the birth of public parks in the transition era, Edo to Tokyo when whole urban openspace had changed. In Edo era, urban openspaces like Oukan (which correspond to present road), Hirokouji (widened Oukan), Kashi (water side space) and Keidai (holy openspace of shrines or temples) were also the residential spaces for the discriminated people. In Meiji era, the residents were eliminated from Oukan, Hirokouji and Kashi by the Land-tax-reform project which was most significant program done by the Meiji government. But in the public parks established on Keidai, they were allowed to live as Dekaseginin (it means workers in public parks).As conclusion of this thesis, the contrast between elimination from road and non-elimination from public parks shows an important role of public parks in the early Meiji era.

    Minneapolis Park Commission was established in 1883, and Horace Cleveland proposed the masterplan. The major structure of his plan was to conserve the river-front of the Mississippi and Lake Districts, and to construct parkways, connecting each other. Actual developments were different from the original, however, the fundamental concept was succeed and produced the Grand Rounds Parkway System, and the metropolitan park system.

    The aim of this study is to obtain the characters and meanings of parks in New-Zealand. The results are as follows.
    (1) What is interesting about the earliest colonial towns which were founded by E. G. Wakefield town plan was the creation of a “Town Belt”, a linear public park that ringed the town.
    (2) E. G. Wakefield's “Town Belt” concept was unlike the “green beltsr” surrounding English towns which were agricultural lands. His “Town Belt” was a public park for the enjoyment and recreation to the citizens.
    (3) When Wakefield created the first “Town Belt” in the 1840's, the first public parks in Europe had not yet been established. It wasn't until 1851 in the United States that the State of New-York passed its “First Park Act” which led to Frederick Law Olmsted's creation of Central Park; America's first public park.
    (4) Town beautification projects, volunteer organizations such as Park Trusts, and, Scenery Preservation Societies were created. In a relatively short span of time, citizens were able to recreate the English Townscape of their mother country through these volunteer organizations.
    (5) Although relatively unknown outside of New Zealand, E. G. Wakefield's “Town belt”concept can be considered a precedent to the public parks systems of the United States as well as a prototype to the “Garden City” movement during the close of the 19th century.

    apanese Concession was established here and there in Korea. And Japanese settlers in Korea made first shrines in their settlement, and then, they decorated shrines and its compounds and its surroundings with trees and other facilities such as benches, fountains, pavillions, etc. Establishing zinza shrines and making of parks in the same place was considered as a matter of course. But after about 1920, zinza shrine became an absolute being to make Korean people into devoted Emperor's citizens. As a result, zinza shrines and its compounds expanded, and sanctified. So, parks established with shrines, lost its function as a park for city dwellers. Due to the Japan's colonial policy to Korea, especially by Making Korean people into devoted Emperor's citizens Policy, Korean people disgusted parks coexisted with zinza shrines. So, they took pleasure to looking beautiful vallies, mountains, streams. They went outside of the city, and spent their holidays there. Almost all of Zinza shrines established in Korea were quickly destructed by Koreans soon after 1945.

    Most of the national parks in the United States contains some non-government lands. Though such areas are by far smaller than Japanese national parks, such areas occupy strategic points and make the park magagement difficult.
    This paper traced a history of the landownership and boundary changes of Yosemite National Park as a case study. The private inholdings were acquired through several methods like purchasing, donation, transfer and exchange. When such methods were not feasible, those areas were removed from park lands by changing the boundary. Thus, the area with private inholdings has been reduced dramatically since the establishment of the park, however there still are many problems related to those areas.

    The landscape conservation in Italy developed on account of Galasso Law of 1985. But besides the law, it's also important that there was the political and administrative backgrounds of the system of regions which began from 1970. The areas of the conservation enlarged from cultural properties to landscape as panorama in 1922, principal elements of the landscape in all the nation in 1985, and still more from the same year each region can choose alternatively all the territories of the region. Compared with Japan, there is an article of the landscape conservation in the Italian Constitution, and the property rights are limited for the perpose of the landscape conservation.

    The purpose of this thesis is to compare with Japan and Korea about the main system and policy of urban parks since the middle of the 70's. In Korea, setting an area of Greenbelt ensured greens around the cities, but its establishment brought on overpopulation of an urban district and personal property damage. In addition, it carried out improvement of urbanpark and tree planting of public place in order to prepare for Seoul Olimpic Game'88.
    In comparison of the development of urbarn parks, Japan was in a more advanced state than Korea on the main policy and system.
    For the long-term planning system of the open space by the masterplan in Japan, it was able to evaluate highly.
    For the future, the urban parks plan are needed not only a quantitative expansion but also new plan, such as an effectional application of removed public site.

    The author studied how they obtained the plants for constructing and maintainingthe gardens in the Heian and Kamakura period. Through the study it is observed that there were 4 ways to supply the plants. They are (1) picking up in field, (2) confiscating, (3) presentation, and (4) exchanging. Therefore one who wanted plants for a gardenin this period had to think how he obtained them. This fact suggests that there was not a professional plant supplyer in the period. However it was observed through the study that there were amateurplant lovers who raised saplings grown up from cuttings for the plant exchanging.

    The design of garden planting is historically considered in relations to Ikebana and Bonsai using picture scrolls drawnin the medieval ages, several antique documents of Ikebana, and the other related antique documents. We could trace the deriving process of a formal flower arrangement from avotive flower of Buddhism in the several scenes in the picture scrolls. And, the informal flower arrangement aiming a natural beauty is consid ered to use the garden plantings as a model of natural feature from the several antique documents of Ikebana. The Bonsai drawn in the picture scrolls are divided into three types with their locations, i. e. an indoor, a veranda, and an adjacent area to a veranda in the garden. And, the Bonsai positioned in a veranda or in a garden are considered to be seen as a foreground of garden, and they would have been arranged in relation to the garden plantings.

    For thinking about the problem of “green in the open space” and operating the policy regarded as “green in the open space”, it is essential to comprehend people's intention concerning with “green in the open space” and its trend.
    In this paper, the panelists' attributes and question categories were classified and the changes of intention were analyzed with multi-dimensional scaling analysis (MDS) by using the data of public opinion censuses on “green in the open space” and landscape planting taken by Prime minister's Office in 1981, 1983 and 1991.
    The results obtained from this study are that people's recognition of “green in the open space” depends on their living place and age and that the trend of urbanization effects on people's intention.

    A measurement experiments were done in order to examine the effect of creeping plants on the wall of a building to suppress the increase of wall temperature in summer of 1992. The change of temperature and heat flux within a day were measured on the wall with creeping plants and the wall without them on 3 different days. On one day, water evaporation from the leaves and the speed of water movement in the stem of creeping plants were also measured. The highest temperature of the outside surface of the wall covered with creeping plants was about 10°C lower than that of the wall without creeping plants. Also, there could be seen the tendency that the bigger the effect of creeping plants to the wall temperature is, the bigger the volume of water evaporation from the leaves is.

    Leaf transpiration of twenty-four plant species were investigated by weight method at the Maosu Shamo desert in China. The transpiration rate relates to the native habitat of each species. The transpiration rates of sand dune species are lower than those of meadow species and of weed species. Sabina vulgaris in the climax vegetation shows lower transpiration rate. Among important plants for afforestation on sand dune, foreign species such as Populus and Salix psammophila show extremely low transpiration rates. On the contrary native species such as Artemisia ordosica and Hedysarum mongolicus show relatively high transpiration rates. Transpiration rate of Artemisia ordosica is 5.4 (water g·hour-1·Leaf Dry weight g-1) in daytime and 0.7 in night. The standing crop of A. ordosica community on the fixed sand dune is 362 (g·m-2), which includes 61 (g·m-2) of leaves. Estimated total transpiration of the A. ordosica community is 5 (mm·day-1). It is considered to have a strong influence on the water economy in the area.

    The experiments were executed for the walkability estimation by using 12 actual stairways. The step rise and step width of stairways investigated here have linear relation with slope gradient, but the complex size indices, 2H+Bs, used for the architectural design as a empirical design index are fairly scattered among the specified value. Gait analysis by kneebending angles shows both the ratio of double support interval to one wave cycle of walking (DSI) and also the cumulative knee-bending angle (CKA) are able to estimate the walkability of stairways. On the other hand stairway size indices must be investigated as well as the walkability indices. The DSI values are well corresponds to the index, 2H+B. This diagram explains the curve has a minimum value of DSI at the specified size index value which has good agreement with empirical value. Moreover the as cending is more easy than the descending. The CKA has also the minimum value in CKA vs the step rise (H) curve, but also this increases almost linearly with increasing the gradient of stairway (S) except extremely low gradient. This result explains the content of CKA results in the forced gait by slope and stairway size and the DSI results in the unstable foot condition including the disagreement between the stairway frequency and the walking rhythm.

    The growth of frost pillars are thought to be governed by both physical properties of soil and heat flux surrounding the soil. This research was conducted to study the mechanism involved in the growth of the frost pillars. This paper is consist of two parts. In the part one an experiment was carried out to obtain empirical data on the growth rates of the frost pillars, on changes in temprature on the top of the frost pillars, and on changes in soil water potential during the frost pillars growth period. Part two describes a construction of a numerial simulation model for coupled heat and moisture transfer during the frost pillar growth. The growth rate of the frost pillars and temprature at the top of the frost pillars were estimated based on the solution by numerical integration of the equation of heat conduction. The heat flux was considered as boundary conditions to solve this equation. Since the water transfer over time is non-linear, method of difference was used to simulate changes in water potential of the soil. Simulation was in reasonable agreement qualitatively withempirical data obtained in the previous part.

    This paper is a study of the disadvantages of frequently-used root-wrapping materials, their historical perspective-and nursery and landscape gardeners' viewpoints, based on a questionnaire. It also discusses likely future root-wrapping materials.
    In view of the aging of the workforce, and the shortage of young workers, nursery gardeners are looking for materials and procedures that will make this work easier.
    There are Prefectural and Governmental standards (specifying root-wrapping materials for use at planting time) in 41% of all Prefectures in Japan, and in these Prefectures the rootwrapping material is removed before planting. In other Prefectures where there are no standards, the wrapping material is not removed at planting time 62% of the time when straw is used, 58% of the time when hemp cloth is used, and 50% of the time when hemp bags are used.
    Reasons given for removing the wrapping material are that the wrapping can prevent proper root formation, and removing it delays rotting; reasons given for not removing the wrapping material are that it retains soil and fertilizer, and the plant “was supplied with the roots wrapped”.
    In view of this confusion, it seems to be important to organize an exchange of opinions in order to create rules for guidance at the national level.

    1. In the investigated sites from where the litter had been carried away, the surface soil had smaller percentage of total carbon and nitrogen than the others.The percentage of total carbon in the soil correlated to solid phase ratio negatively, but it positively correlated to maximum water holding capacity and fine porosity. 2. In the investigated sites where had been under the influence of trampling the surface soil had smaller minimum air capacity, coarse porosity and satulated water permeability than the others. 3. C. cuspidata showed the different values of indices of vitality and they were related to percentage of total carbon and solid phase ratio in surface soil.

    This is a comparative study on the dragonfly habitat found in several ponds for the purpose of selecting species applicable to the ecological guideline for open space planning. The study was conducted based on the stndard habitat environment of Okegayanuma pond in Shizuoka Prefecture. It revealed that four widely distributed species of the dragonfly will represent each stage of environmental restoration of the open space. In particular on the third stage, the species of Choutonbo (Rhythemis fuliginosa) increases its population density in response to a variety of environmental structure in the open spase around the body of water. Also it was indicated that Choutonbo would dominate the entire dragonfly population in summertime under an ecologically optimum conditions of the environment.

    This paper describes the quantitative estimation of tree branches and the analysis of plane distributional structure of the park trees. Following results were obtained.
    1. By use of stream order that is used for the quantitative analysis of rivers, we observed the linear relations between branch order and numbers, length or diameter of branches on semilog or log-log graphs. With these regressions, we could estimate the quantity of branches only from diameter at the clear height of the tree.
    2. By use of the division of the park area, with triangular elements that have three neighboring trees as the vertexes, we could obtain the stand branch densities at each element and the plane distribution of them. We think them applicable to the structural analysis of the park tree distribution.

    The purposes of this paper were to examine how personal norms of mountaineers affected their evaluations of crowding, and to investigate the relationships among their evaluations of crowding and total evaluations of thier experiences.
    Two campsites in Daisetsuzan National Park were choosen forthese purposes. Personal norms, evaluations of crowding and total evaluations were gained by questionnaire survey. Personal norms included motives of mountaineering, expectation of crowding and significance of crowding in their experiences at campsites. Evaluations of crowding at campsites included crowding perception and preference for actual situation. Total evaluations included evaluations of relaxational, solitary environment and multi-lateral satisfaction.
    As the results, their significance of crowding affected crowding perception relating relaxational satisfaction and preference relating total satisfaction. Their motives seeking nature experience, quietness and peace of mind affected their significance of crowding. Besides, their motives seeking escape from others affected their expectation and significance of solitary environment, but did not affected their expectation and significance of crowding at campsites. Thus campsites were not likely to gratify mountaineers' needs of solitude.

    The purposes of the present paper were to clarify relationship between visitors' motives and satisfaction with their recreational experienceand to grasp visitors' attributes affecting their motives and satisfaction. Mountaineers in Daisetsuzan National Park were chosen for these purposes.
    Based on the data from a questionnaire administered to mountaineers in Daisetsuzan Naional Park, I used chi-square to examine relationships among every dimension of multilateral satisfaction. Factor analysis with a varimax rotation was used to extract factors of motives. Analysis of variance was used to investigate relationships among factors of motives and multilateral satisfaction and to grasp how personal attributes and recreational behavior affected their motives and satisfaction.
    As a result, each dimension of multilateral satisfaction affected each other. These relationsamong them showed some variance. Using factor analysis, sixextrated factors of motives accounted for 57 percent of variance. Factors of motives showed difference of relation to every dimension of multilateral satisfaction. Age and party size affected every factor of motives considerably. Age, gender, hobby, past experience, party size, route, type of camp affected some dimensions of multilateral satisfaction.
    In conclusion, we should need to understand mountaineers' motives when attempting to manage for satisfying experience of mountaineering. In order to manage satisfying experience, there is too much yet to invesigate why mountaineers selected some types of recreational behavior to fit between their motives and actual experiences.

    This study introduces the Korea national park system which involves nature preservation through strict user-control by the government, and also intend to clarify users' evaluation of that system. Based on a questionaire survey conducted in Soraksan National Park, it was revealed that many users highly approved of the admission fee but wanted the method of collection to be reexamined. But chi-square test showed a significant relationship between the evaluation of the admission fee and income, age and occupation respectively. The results mean that relatively low income and younger people disapproved of the admission fee. From this study, it is suggested that even though many users consider the user-control system to be inconvenient, most of them recognize the importance of such a system for the conservation of nature.

    Dimensions or forest size of suburban recreational woods are calculated by demands for forest recreation and recreational carrying capacity of the forest. It is very important to calculate carrying capacity of forest from the view points of activities of pedestrians on hiking courses of forest footpathes. Calculations of carrying capacity on these forest roads must be based on walking speeds of hikers, distances between walking groups, numbers of persons of every walking group and density of the footpath in the forest. Planners must find the best walking density and road density for the smooth moving of pedestrians on the forest footpath in good amenity without disturbing each other.

    Landscape can be viewed in terms of its inherent ecological space formation, and of human cognition of its visual appearence into account.
    A case study of Ogasawara National Park with focus on Chichi-jima and Ani-jima was made in an attempting to evaluate the landscape in terms of ecological and visual aspects. These were analyzed and classified in terms of Natural Grade and Visi-bility Frequency, summarized in a “landscape eval-uation” map of the Study Area.
    A comparison was made between the “landscape ev-aluation” map of the Study Area and the existing zoning of the park, revealing several points of difference:
    1) The areas of Ani-jima zoned as an Ordinary Areawere relatively highly evaluated, perhaps deserving “Special Protection” status.
    2) Among the areas of Chichi-jima as Special Areas, the secondary forests weren't sufficiently highly evaluated to deserve their Special status.
    The conclusion was a recommendation that the pl-anning of Ogasawara National Park should be reexa-mined by taking “landscape evaluation” into account.

    The rural landscape is one of important resources for the community development. For that, Ogunimachi in Niigata Prefecture, collected pictures and writings about landscape of there for its symposium and exibition. From the analysisof children's drawings and writings which were collected there, it revealed that their aesthetic attitude, with factors of seasonal and natural phenomena; history and tradition; memories of experiences; etc., had worked when they had watched a landscape. This characteristics were seen not only from children but also from adults. In such a meaning, it would be more effective to make approaches to these aesthetic attitude for encouraging people to concern their landscape.

    The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of artificial structures and viewing distance on visual evaluation of the natural landscape, the preference of general view of artificial structure, and the factors leading to changes in image of the landscape. A set of visual simulation images were prepared in the form of photo slides by placing seven objects of the artificial structures including buildings and bridges in the natural landscape. The following is the result of a visual-psychological experiment through the photo image of the simulated landscape.
    1) The regression analysis in the case of a three-story RC building with flatroof (H: 11.2m, W: 23.5m, ) indicated Y=43.482log (x)-54.387, where Y: naturalness, X: viewing distance, R2: 0.983.
    2) The preference of the artificial structure changed its value to the favorite posit-position around 1 degree of visual angle.3) The factor analysis of the image of the landscape indicated that [preperence of the landscape], [complexity of the landscape]v, [size of the artificialstructure] are the primary factors which influence on formation of the image. Also, the entire image of the landscape was categorized into four groups. A case study was conducted in HAKONE Area of FUJI-HAKONE-IZU National Park and the degree of visual influence of the artificial structure in the natural landscape was tested.

    The purpose of this study is to develop a methodology for designing urban riverfront space which harmonizes land use consideration and landscape features. The method used in this study is a cognitive evaluation by means of simulation models. The simulation models were produced through photomontage using an image processing system.
    Through this study the following findings were obtained. In the district of high rise apartment, a gradually inclined embankment and a stair-formed embankment are highly evaluated and it is desired that approchability of water be promoted to reinforce access to the waterfront. In the commercial district, landscaping with appropriate verdure, especially tall trees, is highly evaluated regardless of the structure of embankment. Here landscaping-oriented design is more desired than approchability of water. In the business district, both approchability of water and landscaping play an important role for a desirable riverfront.

    As was already well-known in Japan, the greenery in the field of vision improves the appraisal of the complex, weakly regulated landscapes of Japanese cities. To examine the effect on an European landscape of planned facades and skylines, several types of residential areas in Munich, Germany, were photographed with and without leaves. These photographs were shown to Japanese respondents who were asked to classify them according to landscape similarity and then evaluate them. The results were as follows:
    1. As might be expected, a 0.01 statistical significance level was attained when a high ratio of greenery improved the appraisals of strictly-regulated residential landscape in Munich.
    2. The lesfing of the vegetation affected the distinction of landscapes in relation to the 0.01 statistical significance level.
    3. The Japanese respondents preferred the strictly-regulated landscapes of Munich's residential areas.
    4. Nine representative types of residential landscapes were found in Munich.
    5. These types were identified by eight factors; i.e. 1) amount of greenery, 2) building height, 3) detached housing, 4) outstanding facades, 5) roof height, 6) street width, 7) width of open space between building and street, and 8) number of parked automobiles.
    6. As roof height and open space increased, evaluations, improved; however the opposite was true for outstanding facades.

    And these following characteristics were derived: The area of children's activities are expanded by the reorganization of school, finding other playgrounds in reorganized school district, and playing with more member of friends. Meanwhile the time occupied on going to school became longer than they needed, their playtime shortened, and they came to ride their bicycles frequently. But they get into danger of having an accident, because there are many dangerous points in this expanded area. As mentioned above, the reorganization of attendance units have also problematic effects on schoolchildren's outdoor actions.
