    Husna, Akhirul Auliya Al. 2015. “Toritatejoshi dake, bakari, dan nomi dalam Kalimat Bahasa Jepang”. Thesis, Departement of Japanese Studies Faculty of Humanities. Diponegoro University. The First Advisor Elizabeth IHANR, S.S., M.Hum. Second Advisor Reny Wiyatasari , S.S., M. Hum. In writing this thesis, the writer discussed ‘Toritatejoshi dake, bakari, and nomi in Japanese sentences’. The writer chose the title due to the lack of explanation of those words in Japanese books, therefore there were still many mistakes in using dake, bakari, and nomi. The first step in writing this thesis was collecting the data by the writer, analyzed the data, and presented the data descriptively. Dake, bakari, and nomi in bahasa Indonesia mean hanya and it indicates limitation. Although in Indonesian those three words can be interpreted with a same word, there are actually differences in meaning and usage of those words. Dake is a toritatejoshi which is limiting the element in a sentence that is the only element that exist and omitting another similar element. Dake can be used in many situations, such as formal and non-formal situation or in written language and verbal language. Bakari is a toritatejoshi that indicates a limitation, but with two distinctive limitating methods. First, bakari has the same meaning with dake and emphasized the element in a sentence which is the only element that exist by omitting another similar element. Bakari which has the same meaning with dake, usually can be found in a sentence containing ~ru verb or in a sentence with no verb on it. Second, bakari is limitating and emphasizing the element that indicates a repeated activity. Usually there is a ~teiru verb or activity verb. Nomi is a toritatejoshi which has the same meaning with dake. According to Professor Honda, nomi is not only used in a formal situation and in a written language, but also can be used in a verbal language, however it will gives a formal impression, this can be happened because the partner is considered as a person who has a higher degree. Keywords: Toritatejoshi, dake, bakari, and nom

    An individual who only has little knowledge on grammar may use nouns, verbs, and adjectives in Japanese easily this is not the case with particles. Particles cannot be replaced or used at whim. This is the case with the particles ‘dake’ and ‘bakari’. These particles in Bahasa Indonesia language have the same meaning with “hanya”. This article analyzes particles ‘dake’ and ‘bakari’ to determine the difference of the two particles. Source of data is the novel Sakura House by Toudou Shizuko and theory from Tomita Takayuki. Based on the analysis it is found that from the four functions of dake only three are found and from the seven functions of bakari only three functions are found. The authors conclude that differences in the two particles are present on several different functions that have both particle and that the bakari may not follow potential words, while dake can. In this study, the author uses descriptive analytical method and literature review. </jats:p

    Monitoring Campsite Soil Erosion by Structure-from-Motion Photogrammetry: A Case Study of Kuro-dake Campsites in Daisetsuzan National Park, Japan

    Camping in the mountain regions has several negative impacts, including soil erosion in the campsites. In many national parks, efforts to monitor and manage campsite soil erosion are insufficient or even lacking. Owing to the lack of implementation of formal management practices, the current and former Kuro-dake campsites in Daisetsuzan National Park (DNP) have suffered serious soil erosion. To gain more insights into campsite soil erosion, we investigated these two campsites by short-term monitoring through structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry surveys with ground control points (GCPs). These surveys were conducted three times consecutively in the current (2017, 2018, and 2019) and former Kuro-dake campsites (2018, 2019, and 2020). Two sets of digital elevation models (DEMs) of the current and former campsites were produced with the resolutions of 0.015 and 0.025 m, respectively. We detected that the elevation changes exceeded by 0.03-0.04 m, using the DEMs of difference (DoDs) maps. Soil loss around the gullies was observed at each campsite. In the current campsite, soil losses of 2.20 and 0.30 m(3) were identified in the periods of 2017-2018 and 2018-2019, respectively. In the former campsite, soil losses of 1.55 and 22.27 m(3) were identified during 2018-2019 and 2019-2020, respectively. In addition, a large amount of exposed mineral soil with exposed rocks was observed at each campsite. Various erosion rates obtained in the short-term study indicated the importance of continuous monitoring. High resolution and high-accuracy topographic products generated from the SfM photogrammetry survey enabled the detection of a small amount of campsite soil erosion and provided a new method to monitor campsite degradation. This study demonstrated that a simple closure of the former campsite in 1992 failed to reduce the impact of soil erosion. In the case of the current and former Kuro-dake campsites, burying the gullies with boulders and setting up boulders or wood fences at the termini of the gullies would be a potential solution to stop or mitigate further erosion. Thus, formal management including monitoring and maintenance of site conditions should be introduced to Kuro-dake as well as other unmanaged campsites in DNP

    Dachiardite from Hokiya-Dake: Evidence of a new topology

    No full text
    A refinement of the crystal structure of dachiardite from Hokiya-dak, Japan, shows the presence (16% modal abundance) of domains of the hypothetical structure called "modified" dachiardite by S. Merlino (1975, 1976) assocd. with domains of "normal" dachiardite. As in the Elba dachiardite, 2 acentric framework configurations are present with the same frequency in the Hokiya-dake dachiardite, so that the statistical symmetry C2/m is maintained. This feature is interpreted as a tendency (common to all zeolites) to avoid T-O-T angles of 180° in the topol. C2/m symmetry of dachiardite. As with the related structures of mordenite and epistilbite, a remarkable Al-enrichment is found in the tetrahydrons of the 4-membered ring

    Volcanic strain change prior to an earthquake swarm observed by groundwater level sensors in Meakan-dake, Hokkaido, Japan

    We installed and operated a low-cost groundwater level observation system at intermittent hot spring wells in order to monitor volcanic strain signals from the active Meakan-dake volcano in eastern Hokkaido, Japan. Data are sampled at 1 Hz and are transmitted to the data center in real time. Evaluation of the water level time series with theoretical predictive tidal strain and coseismic static strain changes has suggested that the wells penetrate to the artesian aquifer and act as a volumetric strain sensor. An active earthquake swarm with more than 400 events occurred at the shallower part of the volcano from January 9 to 11, 2008. Three independent wells recorded pre- to co-swarm groundwater drops simultaneously, which represented a decrease in volumetric strain. The total volumetric strain change during the three active days was estimated to be from 6 to 7 x 10^[-7]. The observed data, including changes in volumetric strain, absence of deformation in the GPS coordinates, and activation of deep low-frequency earthquakes, might imply possible deflation of a source deeper than 10 km, and these preceding deeper activities might induce an earthquake swarm in a shallower part of the Meakan-dake volcano

    On the possibility of the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake reactivating Shinmoe-dake volcano, southwest Japan: insights from strain data measured in vaults

    The Shinmoe-dake volcano in southwest Japan, which produced its first major eruption in 52 yr on 26 January 2011 but had been quiescent since 1 March, re-erupted on 13 March. It was only two days after the occurrence of the &lt;i&gt;M&lt;/i&gt; = 9.0 Tohoku-oki earthquake in eastern Japan. The coincidence of the two events raises the question of whether the earthquake triggered the volcanic activity. As a provisional but rapid assessment of this question, we examined high-resolution strain data at a site located 18 km from Shinmoe-dake. In terms of the Tohoku-oki earthquake, three points can be drawn from the strain data: (1) static strain changes were less than 0.05 × 10&lt;sup&gt;&amp;minus;6&lt;/sup&gt;, which is too small to trigger an eruption; (2) the amplitudes of dynamic strain changes are on the order of 10&lt;sup&gt;&amp;minus;6&lt;/sup&gt;, which may trigger seismicity or volcanic eruption; and (3) strain rates were not accelerated, which indicates no significant change in magma pressure. Comparing these results with reports of other eruptions coincident with seismic events, and considering a scenario in which a seismic event triggered an eruption, we tentatively conclude that the eruption on 13 March was not a triggered event. However, this conclusion may be revised after analyzing seismic data
