Studi Beberapa Aspek Ekologi Burung Murai Batu di Hutan Wisata Pananjung Pangandaran

White rumped shama are commonly traded and raised by people due the bird's attractive voice (The Best Song Birds). In nature, the birds is easily captured due to its possession of narrow habitat preference and strong territorial behavior. As a result, although its distribution is categorized as wide, in general, its population density is low, particularly in low land forests of Java island. Undeniably, within a not too long period, murai batu could only be found within conservation areas. Therefore, research on ecological aspects of this bird in conservation areas is very important for the purpose of conserving the bird. Ecological aspects of white rurped shara studied in this research were distribution, population density, home range, and territory. The methods used were spot mapping, tracer method, and play back method. Research results showed that distribution was in tourism forest of Pananjung Pangandaran were in places with complete strata (upper, middle and upper) and dense canopy coverage. Activities of producing sound and resting were conducted more in middle strata, while food searching was frequently conducted in upper strata. Most of the daily schedule is used for producing sound. Population density of was Pananjung Pangandaran tourism forest was 6 pairs per 10 hectares, with sizes of home range and territory were respectively 1.87 hectares and 0.79 hectares

Hambatan Implementasi Kebijakan Hutan Tanaman Rakyat di Batu Ampar, Propinsi Kalimantan Barat

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sejarah perijinan pemanfaatan hutan mangrove sebagai bahan baku arang oleh masyarakat dan menganalisis hambatan implementasi kebijakan HTR di Kecamatan Batu Ampar. Penelitian menggunakan analisis deskriptif kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengelolaan hutan mangrove di Batu Ampar pernah memperoleh Ijin Pemilikan Dapur dan Pengelolaan Hutan untuk bahan baku arang. Upaya legalisasi pengelolaan hutan mangrove dan USAha arang bakau oleh masyarakat telah beberapa kali dilakukan, namun sering terbentur dengan dinamika proses kebijakan yang berkembang terkait status dan fungsi kawasan hutan mangrove di Kabupaten Kubu Raya. Hambatan implementasi kebijakan HTR pada pemanfaatan hasil hutan kayu mangrove sebagai bahan baku arang terutama disebabkan oleh: (1) kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat pengrajin terhadap isi peraturan akibat tidak adanya sosialisasi; (2) rendahnya kualitas SDM masyarakat pengrajin dan tidak adanya pemberian sanksi yang tegas bagi pelaku pemanfaatan hasil hutan kayu tanpa ijin; serta (3) sebagian besar tugas dan fungsi instansi pemerintah belum dilaksanaka

Model Konservasi Sumberdaya Air Danau Toba

This study aims to design and build water resource conservation model with emphasis on technical, socio-economical,and ecological aspects involving extensive changes in land use, population growth, continuity of operation of the hydropower of Asahan and some other aspects of the catchment. Illustration of the water balance was made under the influence of land use and other economic activities. Modelling of water balance was constructed by the method of dynamic modeling systems using Powersim software. The water availability was analyzed using FJ.Mock method with variables derived from the analysis of the ecological condition of the catchment area of Lake Toba. The simulations ofwater balance and water level was performed for the condition without intervention variables and with intervention variables. The intervention variables was performed in pessimistic, moderat and optimistic scenario to provide an overview of conservation policy. The simulation of the water balance and lake water level indicate that either in the year of 2017-2057, the best scenario is between moderate and optimistic scenarios in the condition of the population growth between 0.8% - 1.0% per year, infiltration coefficient values between 0.40 to 0.45, the value of land cover factor between 0.25 to 0.3, while the flow ofwater released into the Asahan River of 91.69 m3/sec in average

Kearifan Tradisional Perlindungan dan Pemanfaatan Sumberdaya Hutan oleh Suku Kanume di Taman Nasional Wasur

Wasur National Park (TN Wasur), which is located in Merauke Papua, is one of 50 national parks in Indonesia. In the International scale, the TN Wasur are on track migratory birds from the northern hemisphere (Siberia, North China and Japan) to the southern hemisphere (Australia) or otherwise. TN Wasur is a place to stop and migration destination for migrant birds (Scolopacidae and Charadriidae), as well as the habitat of endemic birds, birds of the Trans-Fly (Indonesia-Papua New Guinea) and the marsupial animals (marsupials). The ethnic of Kanume is one of the indigenous communities who have long been living in TN Wasur, which has the largest region in Wasur, about 305.312 ha. The ethnic of Kanume has specific rules and traditional wisdom in managing lands of the ulayat. The ulayat lands are managed by the clans in the ethnic of Kanume. The results showed that the people of clans in the Kanume ethnic have a custom rules and wisdom in terms of protection and utilization of forest resources. Clans in the ethnic of Kanume has ownership rights at the ulayat land to protect and exploit resources that there can be found sacred places, the old village, the well nature, hamlet of sago, and places the ancestral journey. In traditional wisdom and resource utilization, the ethnic of Kanume have a culture that supports the management of the forest resource.

Acid concentration of 200 mL (K1), 250 mL (K2) and 300 mL (K3) with three replications. The observed parameters consisted of chemical analysis such as: total sugars, pH, viscosity, and capsaicin. The organoleptical tests used different tests with standard samples include color, aroma and flavor. While the microbiological analysis was by Total Plate Count (TPC) methods using agar medium spread. The results showed that the type of acid affect the pH, total sugars, viscosity, color, aroma, flavor and had no effect on the levels of capsaicin of cuko pempek. Acid concentration affect the total sugars, capsaicin, color, aroma, taste, while did not affect the pH and viscosity. The interaction of the studied factors affect the pH, total sugars, capsaicin, color, aroma, and taste of cuko pempek. Organoleptical assessment showed that the color, aroma and flavor of cuko pempek were different from the standard samples at the level of the medium, small and very small difference. In microbiological treatment using lactic acid applicative (K3), the viability of cells decreased significantly from a range of LAB 10 CFU/mL to an average of 1.94 × 10 CFU/mL

Tree Species Composition of 1.8 Ha Plot Samboja Research Forest: 28 Years After Initial Fire

Repeated forest fires highly impact on tree species composition. Forest planning requires information about the current condition of species composition. This paper investigates the current tree composition of natural regeneration after repeated forest fires, regeneration process after repeated fires, and strategy of secondary growth related to ecological restoration issues. Re-observation of the 1.8 hectares permanent plot in Samboja Research Forest was conducted in 2011. All trees with diameters above 10 cm at breast height (DBH) were re-numbered and mapped. Herbarium specimen was collected for species identification. Number of taxon was determined, Important Value Index was calculated, species trait of light response was identified based on the references and dispersion index species was calculated. Results show after twenty eight years initial forest fire, 191 species naturally regenerated in the burnt area. Macaranga gigantea, a light demanding pioneer species of Euphorbiaceae was the most dominant species, followed by Vernonia arborea belonging to Asteraceae. Both, M. gigantea and V. arborea had clumped distribution. Eight species identified survived from repeated fires, are Anthocephalus chinensis, Dipterocarpus cornutus, Diospyros borneensis, Eusideroxylon zwageri, Shorea ovalis, Syzygium borneensis, Pholidocarpus majadum and Vatica umbonata. All surviving species was distributed uniformly in the plot. Dominant pioneer species which has grown after repeated fires indicates that the current condition of burnt forest is in the early succession. Protecting forest, assisting natural regeneration and monitoring dominant species are suggested as activities for the ecological restoration
