Home›Protected Areas›Managing Authority›Ministry of the Environment (Japan)Browse ByMinistry of the Environment (Japan)This dimension names the specific agency or organization that manages a protected area day to day, as distinct from who merely governs its legal status. Wikipedia notes that the term also "includes marine protected areas and transboundary protected areas across multiple borders," and a transboundary area in particular may need more than one managing authority working together. Browsing by managing authority groups areas run by the same body across the atlas.FactsMinistry of the Environment (Japan)ConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonClassification AuthorityWell-attestedIUCN Protected Area Management Categories 1Ministry of the Environment (Japan)Filter Results21 entriesIUCN CategoryAllNational Parks of Asia (20)National Parks of North America (1)National Designation TypeAllNational Park (21)ContinentAllAsia (4)CountryAllJapan (21)Establishment EraAll1934 (5)1936 (2)1949 (1)1950 (2)1955 (1)1963 (1)1964 (1)1972 (2)1974 (1)2007 (1)2012 (1)2013 (1)2014 (1)2016 (1)Area BandAll36.700000 (1)65.100000 (1)211.610000 (1)245.660000 (1)246.460000 (1)282.790000 (1)285.390000 (1)348.250000 (1)372.000000 (1)386.330000 (1)539.210000 (1)726.780000 (1)735.650000 (1)797.380000 (1)855.340000 (1)939.950000 (1)994.730000 (1)1279.780000 (1)1743.230000 (1)1863.750000 (1)9037.280000 (1)Governance TypeAllGovernance by Government (21)Marine or TerrestrialAllCoastal (Marine and Terrestrial) (4)Marine (1)Terrestrial (12)International DesignationAllRamsar Site (Wetland of International Importance) (2)UNESCO Global Geopark (1)UNESCO World Heritage Site (5)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 21Ashizuri-Uwakai National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Aso-Kuju National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Bandai-Asahi National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Chubu-Sangaku National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Hidakasanmyaku-Erimo-Tokachi National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Kerama Shoto National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Kirishima-Kinkowan National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Ogasawara National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Oze National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Rishiri-Rebun-Sarobetsu National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Saikai National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Sanin Kaigan National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Sanriku Fukko National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Setonaikai National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Shikotsu-Toya National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Shiretoko National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Towada-Hachimantai National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Unzen-Amakusa National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Yakushima National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Yanbaru National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)Yoshino-Kumano National ParkMinistry of the Environment (Japan)ConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 828 connections.Sources1.
