Overview

Masatoshi Itoh is affiliated with Tohoku University in Japan and focuses on research within Environmental Science. Their work spans several subfields including Global and Planetary Change, Ecology, Environmental Chemistry, Oceanography, and Atmospheric Science.

The scientist's research covers a range of topics primarily related to gas dynamics and ecosystem interactions. These include Atmospheric and Environmental Gas Dynamics, Marine and Coastal Ecosystems, Methane Hydrates and Related Phenomena, Fire Effects on Ecosystems, Oil Palm Production and Sustainability, Atmospheric Chemistry and Aerosols, and Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics.

Recent publications by Masatoshi Itoh showcase investigations into methane emissions, aerosol analysis, and environmental factors affecting these processes. Selected papers include:

  • Environmental Controls of Diffusive and Ebullitive Methane Emissions at a Subdaily Time Scale in the Littoral Zone of a Midlatitude Shallow Lake (2020, Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences)
  • Temporal and spatial variations in methane emissions from the littoral zone of a shallow mid-latitude lake with steady methane bubble emission areas (2020, Agricultural and Forest Meteorology)
  • Controlling Factors of Seasonal Variation of Stem Methane Emissions From Alnus japonica in a Riparian Wetland of a Temperate Forest (2021, Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences)
  • Can Online Aerosol Mass Spectrometry Analysis Classify Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) and Oxidized Primary Organic Aerosol (OPOA)? A Case Study of Laboratory and Field Studies of Indonesian Biomass Burning (2021, ACS Earth and Space Chemistry)
  • Insights into the mechanism of diurnal variations in methane emission from the stem surfaces of Alnus japonica (2022, New Phytologist)

Masatoshi Itoh frequently collaborates with a core group of co-authors, including Hiroki Iwata, Yoshiyuki Takahashi, Ayaka Sakabe, Yoshiko Kosugi, and Takashi Hirano. These collaborations reflect common interests in environmental and ecological dynamics.

Their work is disseminated through several prominent scientific journals, with notable repeated contributions to the Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences. Other regular venues include The Science of The Total Environment, Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, ACS Earth and Space Chemistry, and New Phytologist.
