Outline of Final Research Achievements

Migration distances were analyzed using Australian Census and Sociodemographic Statistics of Fukui City. Problems were as follows: (1) changes in migration distances throughout lifetime, (2) age-specific profiles of migration distances achieved in different-sized areas, (3) differences between male and female groups, and (4) one-year-cyclic patterns of migration frequencies. The following points were made clear: (A) changing patterns in distances throughout lifetime were quite different and complementary between short- and log-distance migrations, (B) Migration frequencies in individual months show a clear one-year-cyclic pattern from January to December, and short-, and medium-, and long-distance migrations showed different cyclic patterns. (C) Temporal differences in migration behavior and distances were clear between female and male groups. Mechanisms of migration behavior are essentially different depending on the spatial scale of behavioral spheres.
