Reference excerpt

The Wild Bird Society of Japan (Japanese: 日本野鳥の会, romanized: Nihon'yachōnokai) was founded in 1934 in Tokyo, Japan. The organisation has 47,000 members and publishes a newsletter called Strix. Other relevant publications include the Field Guide to the Birds of Japan, Birds of East Asia, and A Birdwatchers's Guide to Japan by Mark Brazil (published by Kodansha). After 15 years of lobbying by WBSJ and numerous other conservation organisations, the Hokkaido Government chose not to build drainage channels along the Chitose River in Chitose, Hokkaidō. Lobbying by WBSJ and others, were also successful in getting the plan to reclaim Fujimae Tidal Flat, an important migration stop-over site for shorebirds, to be dropped. Wild Bird Society of Japan (WBSJ) is a BirdLife International Partner. Princess Takamado is the honorary president of BirdLife International.

International activities Wild Bird Society of Japan is engaged in a number of international partnerships and campaigns. In conjunction with Taiwan Wild Bird Federation (previously BirdLife in Taiwan), Hong Kong Bird Watching Society (BirdLife in Hong Kong) and other organisations, a joint-project sponsored by JFGE and the Council of Agriculture of Taiwan (COA), successfully tracked black-faced spoonbills to previously unknown nesting sites in the Demilitarized Zone in Korea, and also identified several new important stopover sites in China. WBSJ worked with the Heilongjiang Farm Bureau to design nature reserves at the Sanjiang Plain in China, sponsored by the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC). In conjunction with Wetlands International, the organisation worked to promote the Asia-Pacific Migratory Waterbird Conservation Strategy. WBSJ also funded and supported the opening of an education centre at Muraviovka Nature Park, Russia. Japan and Australia also shared lead roles in the promotion of international bird conservation links, for example, the Japan Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (JAMBA) treaty which came into force in 1981.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Wild Bird Society of Japan

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Wild Bird Society of Japan claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Wild Bird Society of Japan before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Wild Bird Society of Japan ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Wild Bird Society of Japan

In research: Wild Bird Society of Japan appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Wild Bird Society of Japan in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Wild Bird Society of Japan is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1934 establishments in Japan, Animal welfare organizations based in Japan, BirdLife partners, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Wild Bird Society of Japan outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
