Walking for survey of post-disaster park reconstruction

ISHINOMAKI, Japan - Shunsuke Goto, a Waseda University student, looks at the mouth of the Kitakami River in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture, on Feb. 25, 2013, during a field survey commissioned by the Environment Ministry to choose a 700-kilometer natural path called "Tohoku Kaigan Trail." The selection of the coastal path from Hachinohe, Aomori Prefecture, to Soma, Fukushima Prefecture, is a core project for a Sanriku Fukko (Reconstruction) National Park to be created by rebuilding natural parks damaged by the earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011.

    Coastal research whaling ship

    ISHINOMAKI, Japan - Photo taken April 25, 2011, shows a whaling ship docked at Kushiro port in Hokkaido. The ship's departure from the port for coastal research whaling in waters off Kushiro under the approval of Japan's Fisheries Agency, which was scheduled April 25, was postponed due to bad weather. The whaling site was changed to waters off Hokkaido from off the Sanriku coastline in northeastern Japan after the catastrophic March 11 earthquake and tsunami wrecked whaling ships and related facilities in Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture, home to one of Japan's key coastal whaling bases.
