TARLING MUSIC AS A MEANS OF MAINTAINING INDIGENOUS JAVANESE LANGUAGE AT NORTHERN COAST (

This paper aims to investigate the existence of traditional music like “tarling” as a means of maintaining indigenous Javanese language at Northern Coast areas (“Pantai Utara” or “Pantura” for short)in the Provinces of West Java and Central Java. The word ‘tarling’ itself stands for guitar and suling—a traditional flute made of bamboo. This kind of music is commonly heard by communities who live in Indramayu and Cirebon (located in the Province of West Java) and those ones in Brebes, Tegal and Slawi (located in the Province of Central Java)People living in those areas get used to communicating in Javanese language with typically strong accent or dialect which other Javanese speakers at the Eastern area—such as: in Semarang, Solo, and Yogyakarta—call it basa ngapak. The way they communicate in Javanese with basa ngapak is assumed rather rude and impolite even though the assumption cannot be truly generalized. In addition, speaking Javanese with basa ngapak has formed the people of the communities to be proud of their self identity because their Javanese language speaking is unique. While listening to the music and trying to understand the lyrics of the songs, there are some moral values that show how to well behave and interact in social life. It proves that tarling maintains and supports local wisdom through music since music has become a universal means to deliver someone’s intention

Effect of Growing Season on Growth and Relation of Height and Above Ground Biomass of Avicennia Marina

Relation of height of seedling stands and above ground biomass is an important indicator of successful stand establishment and effectivity of carbon cycle which requires further study. This research aimed to study the growth level of Avicennia marina seedling planted in dry season and rainy season and to analyze the relation of mangrove stand height to above ground biomass of seedling for each season. This research was conducted through field experiment involving grouped random design including group of seedling plantation in dry season and rainy season with 40 replication for each group and 6 months of experiment period. Data collection including stand height above ground biomass, followed by data analysis on the relation of seedling height and above ground biomass. The result showed that the growth of mangrove stand planted in rainy season was better than those planted on dry season. Average height of mangrove Avicennia marina stand planted in dry season was 30,5 ± 7,3 cm while stand height of mangrove planted in rainy season was 42,7 ± 11,4 cm. Above ground biomass data showed the average of 4,1 ± 1,8 gr in the dry season treatment group and 6,6 ± 2,5 gr in the rainy season treatment group. Regression analysis on the relation of stand height and above ground biomass of Avicennia marina seedling showed that the above ground biomass was significantly affected by stand height both for dry season and rainy season treatments. But, there was a difference on the determination index and the coefficient of the effect on each treatment groups. The relation of stand height and above ground biomass was Y = 0.1871 X0.8832 with R2 = 0.2802 for the dry season group and Y = 0.0506 X1.2892 with R2 = 0.743 for the rainy season group.
