Large-scale urban sensing data such as mobile phone traces are emerging as an important data source for studying human mobility. With location related information (i.e longitude and latitude), the data represent a unique opportunity to monitor individual mobility flows in a timely manner and with proper spatial aggregation. Modeling such data from time and space provides spatiotemporal pattern of human mobility, which has a close link to individual’s behavior mode and social role....

In Hokkaido, Japan, four typhoons continuously hit during August 2016 and the 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi earthquake was occurred on September 6, 2018, which led to significant damage in wide areas of Hokkaido. Considering the social importance of these historical heavy rainfall and earthquake induced geo-disasters, the Japanese Geotechnical Society organized the survey team. The aim was to investigate the phenomena and factors which contributed to disaster recovery and disaster prevention/mitig...

From a dynamical point of view, a tipping point presents perhaps the single most significant threat to an ecological system as it can lead to abrupt species extinction on a massive scale.Climate changes leading to parameter drifts can drive various ecological systems towards a tipping point. Uncovering natural and biological mechanisms to mitigate or delay a tipping point is of considerable interest. Focusing on the tipping-point dynamics in ecological mutualistic networks of pollinators and pla...
