SURFACE TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION ANALYSIS USING REMOTE SENSING SYSTEM IN SPERMONDE ESTUARY

Research on the phenomenon of climate change on the region Makassar Strait waters that are part of the oceanographic activities that require observation of the sea surface temperature (SST), surface currents and ocean color imagery from satellite imagery. In this case, satellite remote sensing data using Aqua-Modis analyze both visually and raw-surface temperature parameter data in order to study a variety of other related phenomena that take place in the ocean. The existence of satellite imagery data for the observation of parameters and / or oceanographic phenomena will be more profitable in terms of time and cost and high accuracy. The purpose of this study was to review based on the description of the SST analysis using Aqua-Modis image data (non-commercial) and open source software in providing the information cepatdan applicable. Bodies Spermonde been considering the seas is quite unique because it is located right in the path of the current meeting of the Pacific Ocean through the sea of Sulawesi and spacious enough for the continuity of mesoscale oceanographic processes for coverage in the waters Spermonde in (islands) Indonesi

LIGNIN AND CARBON ISOTOPES COMPOSITION OF SUSPENDED PARTICULATES BY CAPILLARY GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY OF CUPRIC OXIDE OXIDATION PRODUCTS

Lignin are high molecular weight phenolic polymers that occur as major constituents of vascular plants. As a result of their natural abundance, wide distribution, and resistance to microbial degradation, lignin are also commonly found in soil and sedimentary organic matter. The aim of this study was to identify the contribution of lignin to the suspended particulate fraction in the Losari Beach and Lae-lae Island, where indicate highly degraded lignin materials. Lignin was characterized by oxidative degradation, cupric oxide being chosen as the most suitable oxydizing agent to produce simple lignin-derived phenols that are extracted with hexane and analyzed by capillary gas chromatography on fused silica columns, provides the high sensitivity and precision required for the identification and quantitation of trace levels of lignin in seawater. A suite of up to 8 phenols is produced that reflects the relative concentration and plant tissue sources of lignin present in the suspended material

ASSESSMENT OF WORKING ENVIRONMENT IN READY-MADE GARMENT INDUSTRIES: A CASE STUDY IN GAZIPUR, BANGLADESH

The study was conducted to assess the ambient environmental condition (temperature, humidity, noise and illumination) in the SIJI Garments Co. Ltd., Ehsan Garments Ltd. and Silver Composite Textile Mills Ltd. in Gazipur District, Bangladesh from September, 2016 to February, 2017 (during winter season) to know the internal working environment of the garment industries. In the SIJI Garments Co. Ltd., the highest temperature was observed in the cutting section (28.7°C), sewing section (28.9°C) and packaging section (29.2°C) which exceeded the guideline values. The highest noise level was observed in packaging section (86.6 dB). The illumination level in the most densely populated sections of workers such as cutting section (450 lux), sewing section (490 lux) and sample section (488 lux) were found unpleasant for the workers.  In Ehsan Garments Ltd., the highest temperature was observed in sewing section (26.4°C) which exceeded the ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers)standard and the noise level in sewing section (88.4) which exceeded the ECR guidelines. In Silver Composite Textile Mills Ltd. the illumination level was poor in almost all sections specially cutting (466 lux), sewing (565 lux) and finishing (515 lux) sections where maximum number of workforce was employed. The temperature of all sections of three readymade garment industries were optimum to moderately high, humidity level was around optimum level but the noise levels highly exceeded the ECR, 1997. The illumination level was insufficient especially in the cutting and sewing section.The study revealed that congested work area, improper ventilation, building design, excessive noise, poor illumination, dust and no use of personal protective equipment were the major problem faced by the workers in these industries

SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL VARIATION OF THE TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLID IN THE SOUTH SULAWESI COASTAL WATERS

Suspended solids are the main ingredients forming precipitates that can inhibit the ability to form organic compounds in coastal and marine waters. This study aims to determine the concentration of Total Suspended Solid (TSS) in coastal and marine waters of the west coast of South Sulawesi collected in different seasons, namely October 2017 (dry season) and March 2018 (rainy season). TSS concentrations generally higher in the rainy season (34-47 ppm) compared to the dry season (10-25 ppm). On location, higher TSS concentrations were obtained in the Tallo river waters, namely 10–47 ppm (28.9 ± 13.4 ppm) compared to locations in Pangkep river waters 14–43 ppm (27.4 ± 11.2 ppm). The results showed that the Total Suspended Solid (TSS) in marine waters and still comply with the limit values set by the Ministry of Environment (MOE)

HEAVY METAL ANALYSIS CO AND V ON SEDIMENT DISTRICT OF MAMUJU DISTRICT USING INDUCTIVELY COUPLED PLASMA OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROSCOPY (ICP-OES)

This research concerning heavy metal analysis of Co and V on Mamuju Regency water sediments using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Sediment sampling was conducted on four stations, namely the mouth of the Mamuju river, the mouth of the river Karema, the mouth of the river Rimuku, and front of Manakarra beach platform. The results showed that Co metes ranged from 0.167-0.208 mg/L while for metal V ranged from 0.649-0.944 mg/L. Of the three metals in the analysis are still below the threshold of metal quality standards in sediments or can be said not polluted

ANALYSIS OF DIMETHYLSULFIDE AS BIOGEOCHEMICAL CYCLES SULFUR ON REGIONAL ESTUARY SPERMONDE

We developed a more accurate method of analysis for low-concentration volatile compounds used for the determination of free dimethylsulfide (DMS) in marine phytoplankton by using solid phase (SPME) gas chromatography - spectrometry Mass of GC-MS and head space method. DMSP, as a product of bacteria degradation has been scientifically recognized to be affected by climate change due to increased in sea surface temperature, and form DMS compunds.. The present study is to determine the DMSP concentration and degradation pathway in the oligotrophic region of Spermonde waters. The spatial and temporal correlation between DMSP degrading bacterial codes and biological potential controls for DMS formation in the open seas was examined using a statistical factorial analysis of variance and regression against the spatial (or distance) gradients of the Spermonde coastal waters, the concentration of chlorophyll-a, and diatom community structures. Seawater chemical properties, chlorophyll-a, and diatom samples were collected from several sites in the Tallo-Makassar river estuary, and the Pangkep river in September 2017 (transitional wet-to-dry-season). The result shows that the concentration of the Domination Index was higher in the transition season of 35.2 to 85.2 μM than in other seasons. The abundance of diatoms during the transition season reached 16,534 plankter / mL

COMPARISON OF TWO BACKGROUNDS ON 14C ACTIVITY MEASUREMENT WITH LSC (LIQUID SCINTILLATION COUNTING)

Comparison of the two types of background on 14C activity measurement has been carried out. This study aims to determine a better background for 14C activity measurement using the LSC (Liquid Scintillation Counting) method. The background used consists of two, namely background I and background II. Background I is a marble solution that has been absorbed using 30% DEA. Background II is a 30% DEA solution. Activity measurement of 14C was carried out using Hidex 300 SL liquid scintillation counter (LSC). Activity 14C background I is 99,389 DPM. While Activity 14C background II is 101,178 DPM. This shows that the background that is better used for measuring Activity 14C is background I, which is a marble solution that has been absorbed using DE
