International Arid Laboratory Building

インターナショナル・アリド・ラボ実験棟
The International Arid Laboratory Building includes an Environmental Restoration Laboratory, a Yellow Sand Observation Laboratory, and a Gene-recombination Laboratory. In addition, the top floor contains Glasshouses which are used to grow transgenic plants.

Arid-tron Control and Experimental Building, Growth Chamber Experimental Building, and Growth Chamber Experimental Building 2.

アリドトロン・グロースチャンバー実験棟
These three buildings provide systems for analyzing the responses of dryland plants to global warming, an electron probe micro-analyzer that can be used to perform nondestructive analysis of plant chemical compositions, six dryland simulation systems and two experimental system for Analyzing Responses of Dryland plants to Climate Changes. Next to these buildings, there are two Arid-tron Big Glass Chambers (with 800 m2 of floor space).

Arid Land Dome Experiment Building, Arid Land Dome

アリドドーム
The Arid Land Dome Experimental Building contains the Arid Land Dome (with 1000 m2 of floor space), the three-dimensional erosion analysis system, and the desertification mechanism analysis system. There is also an exhibition room (a mini-museum) for arid land studies that provides information and exhibits during visits by the public.

Crop Growing Field

共同実験農場
Crop Growing Field is used for field experiment about arid land. This is 62,000m2 area , and has Weighing Lysimeter and plastic greenhouses.

Guest House

The guest house is available for our short-term visiting co-researchers, trainees, graduate and research students.
