  Tsushima Province - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tsushima Province (対馬国; Tsushima-no kuni) was an old province of Japan (-19c) on Tsushima Island which occupied the area corresponding to modern-day Tsushima, Nagasaki.
It is possible that Tsushima was recognized as a province of the Yamato Court in the 5th century.
Tsushima Province has been a strategic area that took a major role in the national defense against possible invasions from the continent and in trade with the Korea.

 Tsushima Islands - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
The Tsushima Islands are situated in the Korea Strait between the Japanese island of Kyushu and the Korean Peninsula.
Tsushima Province was controlled by the Tsushima-no-kuni-no-miyatsuko (対馬国造) clan until the Heian Period and then by the Ahiru clan until the middle of the 13th century.
Tsushima was transferred to Nagasaki Prefecture in 1872 and its districts of Kamiagata (上県) and Shimoagata (下県) were merged to form the modern Tsushima City.

 Tsushima, Nagasaki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is the only city of Tsushima Subprefecture and it entirely occupies the Tsushima Island Archipelago, which lies in the Korea Strait north of Nagasaki on the western side of Kyushu, the southernmost mainland island of Japan.
The city of Tsushima is located on Tsushima Island and its small neighbouring islands, lying slightly to the west side of Korea Strait south of the Sea of Japan and north-east of the East China Sea.
Tsushima is geographically close to the Korean Peninsula, so environmental problems arising from South Korea affect Tsushima.

 Intersections: Unstable Mothers: Redefining Motherhood in Contemporary Japan
The assumption in Tsushima's texts of women as primary caregivers combines with her rejection of the conventional family unity to lead naturally into a discussion of the institution of single motherhood, a particularly salient issue for contemporary Japanese feminism.
Many Japanese critics have pointed out that Tsushima's women are women who 'want to give birth',[59] and that her literature differs from that of many of her contemporaries in its affirmation of pregnancy and motherhood.
Tsushima's literary discourse on motherhood appeared as the Japanese government was barely beginning to acknowledge the existence of a widespread problem that required intervention.

 Wikipedia: Bakuhan taisei
Shogunate and domain system (bakuhan taisei) is the political and feudal system in the Edo period of Japan.
The shogunate and domains are both daimyo, translated as feudal lords with its own bureaucracy, policies and territory.
The Sankin-kotai or the alternative residence in Edo required domains to have hostages such as heirs and wives resident in Edo and visit the Edo each alternative year, which imposed a huge expenditure to the domains.

 A Profile of Tsushima shi (Tsushima City)
Tsushima is surrounded by the sea, and the oceanic climate features the warm air with high rainfall.
Tsushima was a window of Japan to introduce culture of stone implements and bronze wares, rice farming, Buddhism and Chinese characters from a continent, because of a geographic feature of being the closest part of Japan to the Korean Peninsula.
However, Muneie who was the lord of the domain of Tsushima, which yields a hundred thousand koku of rice, tried to resume interchange with the Korean Peninsula by guiding Korean correspondents to Edo.

 Tokugawa Political System
Foreign trade was also permitted through Satsuma domain to the Ryukyu kingdom (Okinawa) and through Tsushima domain to Korea, but generally speaking diplomatic matters were closely controlled by the Tokugawa.
The shogunate could punish daimyo for transgressions in a variety of ways; a domain could be reduced in size, the daimyo could be shifted to an entirely different domain, or, the ultimate sanction, suicide could be demanded, perhaps with the additional punishment of his lineage being reduced in status to a non-daimyo level.
The domains were independent with regard to their internal arrangements as long as there was no conflict with the shogunate's interests.

Foreign trade was also permitted to the Satsuma and the Tsushima domain.

 Homology Modeling and Toxin Interaction with the Voltage Gated NA
Lys-11 of m-CTX interacted specifically with Asn-404 of domain I. Based upon the orientation of the Gln-14, Lys-16, and Hyp-17 in a plane and the pattern of interactions, the channel domains most probably are arranged in a clockwise configuration around the pore as viewed from the extracellular surface.
The Na channel is constituted by four partially homologous domains of a single polypeptide arranged circumferentially around a central ion permeation pathway.
A clockwise arrangement of the domains was supported by experimentally determined interaction points between the asymmetric ligand neosaxitoxin (neoSTX), which binds and blocks in the outer vestibule at the level of the selectivity filter, and the four channel domains.

In July, Tokugawa Ieyasu was drawn away from the Regent's Council at Osaka to defend his eastern domains from potential threat by a neighbor allied to the Ishida faction.
Satsuma, a feudal domain located in the southern part of Kyushu with a castle town at Kagoshima, continued to be ruled during the Edo period by the Shimazu family.
During the Edo period, Satsuma was prevented from having a national role because the domain fought against the Tokugawa at the battle of Sekigahara in 1600.

Native threats to the authority of the Shogun Tokugawa led to a major military campaign against the impregnable Osaka Castle to eradicate the Toyotomi family.
Under the terms of the agreement, Choson conducted relations with Japan through both the domain of Tsushima and the bakufu in Edo.
At the request of Tsushima's daimyo, Choson transferred some of their privileges to him along with an annual allowance of 100 bushels of rice and 100 bushels of beans.

 Altimetry in Marginal, Semi-Enclosed and Coastal Seas - Part I: Sea of Japan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
The variability induced by the Tsushima Current, which flows into the Sea of Japan through the Tsushima Straits and flows out mostly through the Tsugaru Straits, is the dominant variability in the southern regions of the Sea of Japan (see Ichiye 1984, Ichiye, Takano and Milliman 1986 and Takano 1991).
The Tsushima Current is quite shallow (the sill depth is less than 150 m) and carries a transport of 1.5 to 3.5 Sv of relatively warmer and often relatively fresher water masses into the Sea of Japan.
This can again be attributed to the Tsushima Current as it enters through the Straits of Tsushima in the south and meanders its way towards the Straits of Tsugaru, separating Honshu and Hokkaido in the eastern sea, where it rejoins the Pacific.

The vibrations in track and ground induced by train passages are investigated by the substructure method with due consideration to dynamic interaction between an inhomogeneous track system comprising continuous rails and discrete sleepers, and the underlying viscoelastic layered half space ground.
The dynamic equations are solved in the frequency–wave-number domain by applying the Fourier transform procedure.
Based on the assumption of a constant train speed, the time domain response is evaluated from the inverse Fourier transform computation.

The model will be used to form a solution that minimizes the difference to dynamical equations, the in situ measurements, and altimeter sea level variations.
The importance of the geostrophic control versus hydraulic control [Mattsson, 1995] within the Tsushima Strait is still a widely debated issue, and the altimeter data in combination with the in situ measurements will aid in answering these questions.
Thus, the Jason-1 altimeter data will be used to monitor the SSH difference between the East China Sea and the Sea of Japan which is related to the pressure head driving the transport through the strait.
