Fieldlogy Science: A new transdisciplinary science for Earth’s regeneration

Written by

Fieldlogy, a new transdisciplinary science for the biosphere and geosphere, draws on ecological, environmental, and economic fields. The approach incorporates mutual interactions, cause-and-effect sequences, feedback systems, self-organising, fusion systems, and multiplicity. It aims to enhance natural capital through the application of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) rather than Industrial Technology-based Solutions (ITbS). ITbS cannot regenerate Earth’s systems due their huge cost and […]

Transdisciplinary field science based on Land-Surface Management (LSM)

Written by

Through transdisciplinary field science, and land-surface management, saki, Kawakiat, Kato, Tsuji, and Sisva are developing methods to restore terrestrial land systems, applying three key technologies such as AeroHydro culture in peat/wetland, Z-tillage culture in arable land, and HydroCycle culture in dry/semi-arid land

Land-Surface Management (LSM) technology, which is based on transdisciplinary field science, offers a solution for ‘Earth Regeneration’. The general principle behind LSM technology aims to control and manage three basic elements of our land surface – water, oxygen, and nutrients – even in different eco-types such wetland or dryland. On a global scale, there are large areas of inferior soil […]
