    This study relates the historical development of fenestration in Irish buildings (mostly those of the classical tradition), using buildings or windows characteristic of each definable architectural period (chosen from published sources or site work). It shows that there is a close relationship between window design and the Irish interpretation of the classical idiom, and that change in the period under review came about from a fusion of aesthetic ideals and ongoing technological development. Because of the aesthetic and practical importance of the constituent elements in the window, a detailed mention is made of the types of glass and framing materials used. The history of window -glassmaking in Ireland is also chronicled. The details and elements of the windows used during this period - types of glazing, shaped windows, and openings, frames and lights - are examined (referring back to the important windows introduced in the historical account) to underline the variety found at every period.The foregoing analysis establishes the importance of fenestration in Irish architecture, especially that of the classical style. Irish developments are then set within the North European classical architectural context, in which fenestration has long been recognised as a fundamental design tool. The research carried out brings to light the high standards of design and workmanship achieved in Ireland, underpinning the argument for conservation. The philosophy and practicalities of conservative repair are discussed in an inquiry into the requirements for window conservation, expanded upon by reference to case histories and discussion of educational and financial matters.A glossary of terms is given and five appendices complement the text. Two inventories present the physical evidence and documentation used in this research, listing the relevant details of the key buildings and the window- glasshouses. There is an essay on the glazing fraternity, and some information is given on Irish window joiners and carpenters. The final appendix defines some of the more commonly used conservation terms

    Padang lamun merupakan habitat potensial bagi sumberdaya hayati ikan yaitu sebagai daerah asuhan, daerah pemijahan, tempat berlindung dan mencari makan. Salah satu jenis ikan yang senantiasa didapatkan pada daerah padang lamun dalam jumlah melimpah yaitu ikan baronang (Siganus canaliculatus). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat peranan ekologi padang lamun bagi S. canaliculatus yang dilaksanakan di perairan Teluk Ambon Dalam. Pada penelitian ini, dipilih 3 lokasi padang lamun berdasarkan perbedaan karakteristik dan keragaman vegetasi lamun dengan asumsi bahwa karaktersitik habitat lamun yang berbeda akan memberikan peranan ekologi yang berbeda ditinjau dari perbedaan kelimpahan dan struktur ukuran ikan yang berasosiasi di dalamnya. Pengumpulan ikan dilakukan dengan menggunakan pukat pantai (beach seine) pada setiap padang lamun dengan karakteristik berbeda selama periode Maret-Mei 2011, dengan dua kali penarikan sampel setiap bulan mewakili periode pasang (spring tide) dan surut (neap tide). Dilakukan pengukuran panjang dan berat setiap individu ikan yang tertangkap. Pengamatan isi lambung dan pengukuran kematangan gonad juga dilakukan pada sejumlah sampel ikan yang terpilih. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa padang lamun dengan keragaman dan kerapatan vegetasi yang tinggi mendukung tingginya kelimpahan individu S. canaliculatus. Hasil analisis lebih lanjut menunjukkan bahwa secara ekologi ekosistem padang lamun di perairan Teluk Ambon Dalam lebih berfungsi sebagai tempat asuhan dan mencari makan bagi S.canaliculatus. Upaya konservasi padang lamun pada perairan Teluk Ambon Dalam sangat diperlukan untuk mendukung keberlanjutan fungsi ekosistem ini bagi sumberdaya ikan

    The study was conducted in March - May 2011 in the coastal waters of Tanjung Tiram – inner Ambon bay. The aims of the study were to determine the composition of species and structure of fish communities in seagrass beds ecosystems. Fish were collected every spring and neap tide for three month periode with a swept area method using beach seine. Fishes were collected as many as 6444 individuals representing 68 species from 29 families. Siganus canaliculatus was contributed up to 62.91% of the total individual fish found.The fish community structure was varied between spring and neap tide. Index of dominance was in low category, diversity in medium, and evenness in unstable conditions. Moreover, the results indicated that seagrass ecosystems in Tanjung Tiram (TAD) have an important role as spawning, nursery ground, and feeding ground. Therefore, management and conservation efforts are urgently needed to maintain the ecological role of seagrass ecosystems for the sustainability of the fish resources

    The study, in 2012, has successfully formulated with the MCDM for each allocation of space in KKPD allotment (core areas, sustainable fisheries zone, used zone, and other zones). This weighting techniques need to be tested and be implemented in identifying and designing the KKPD in the study area. This study aims to identify and map the biophysical conditions and the potential of coastal and marine natural resources in marine conservation area candidate, North Luwu Regency; to identify the areas suitable for the KKPD based on weighting technique with the MCDM method; and to evaluate potential candidates for marine protected areas in the coastal region. This study used a survey method to perform in situ measurements of physico-chemical parameters, conducted a survey of coastal ecosystems using the transect method. The socio-economic data of coastal communities were collected using the questionnaire. The biophysical conditions and marine resources were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. The results showed that the candidate region has a rich diversity of coastal ecosystems, but the ecosystem, particularly seagrass beds and coral reefs have been in damaged category. Only the mangrove ecosystem that was still in a good condition category with moderate-to-heavy levels of density. There were 6 species of seagrasses and 6 species of mangroves and 71 species of reef fish. It was discovered 2 regions corresponding to the allotment of the Core Zone, which is in the Region I and III with the total area of 654.22 hectares. For sustainable fisheries zone, Region II and IV would be the first choice with the total area of 620.27 hectares. The Used Zone was identified in the Region V with total area of 480.66 hectares. The total area of the region was equal to 1755.15 hectares. Marine protected areas of was suggested to the protection of coastal ecosystems including mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs and its associated biota, especially the protection of local feeding ground of several species (sea turtles and dugongs)
