About
I belong to doctoral course of Graduate School of Environmental Studies in Tohoku university. I've conducted research of supplychain analysis in semiconductor industory and its impacts on water scarcity impacts using neural net learning, IO, and MRIO.Details
I've been interested in an interface between human activities and earth, and majored earth science in Science School of Tohoku university. After graduataion, I decided to enroll Graduate school of Environmental Study in Tohoku university to start a carreer in LCA and industiral ecology. During my master course, I've conducted a research related to semiconductor and its impact on water scarciy and methodological development for supply chain analysis.My research focuses on developing a data-driven framework for analyzing environmental impacts and risks in global supply chains, with a particular emphasis on the semiconductor industry. Semiconductors are essential to modern economies, yet their supply chains are complex, globally distributed, and resource-intensive. In particular, water scarcity has emerged as a critical constraint, not only as an environmental impact but also as a source of supply disruption risk. To address this, I combine multi-regional input–output (MRIO) analysis with detailed supply chain modeling to quantify both upstream environmental impacts (e.g., water scarcity footprint) and the propagation of resource-related risks across industries.
