Why did you choose Tokyo Tech s IGP?
I used to hear about Japanese universities being good at science and engineering before I came here. A lot of discoveries and technologies have been made in Japan. When I decided I wanted to study abroad, I started looking for universities especially in Japan. One great thing about Tokyo Tech was its official website. There was plenty of information on applying from overseas for someone with no background knowledge, and lots of details on the offered programs were available.
Airborne radar reveals groundwater beneath glacier
Melting glaciers and polar ice sheets are among the dominant sources of sea-level rise, yet until now, the water beneath them has remained hidden from airborne ice-penetrating radar.
With the detection of groundwater beneath Hiawatha Glacier in Greenland, researchers have opened the possibility that water can be identified under other glaciers from the air at a continental scale and help improve sea-level rise projections. The presence of water beneath ice sheets is a critical component currently missing from glacial melt scenarios that may greatly impact how quickly seas rise – for example, by enabling big chunks of ice to calve from glaciers vs. stay intact and slowly melt. The findings, published in

Researchers use airborne radar to detect groundwater beneath Greenland glacier
Researchers have detected groundwater beneath a glacier in Greenland for the first time using airborne radar data. If applicable to other glaciers and ice sheets, the technique could allow for more accurate predictions of future sea-level rise. By Danielle Torrent Tucker

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT), Federal Highway Administration, and the City of Sioux Falls have launched a virtual meeting to collect public input about the planning and construction of South Veterans Parkway from I‑29 to 57th Street.
The virtual public meeting is hosted on the project website through May 29, 2021. Watch video messages from the project team, view the 2012 Environmental Assessment, and comment on any environmental or regulation changes that may have occurred since its development. Leave comments on an interactive map or share them via an online form. Additional comments or questions following the meeting can be shared with the project team at
