Abstract

Mesjid Sunnah Alhidayah dan Yayasan Al Mujahidah Sumatera Utara merupakan salah satu rumah ibadah dan sekolah yang terletak di kelurahan Sari Rejo Kecamatan Medan Polonia yang belum mendapatkan pasokan air bersih dari PDAM Tirtanadi. Masjid Sunnah Alhidayah dan sekolah yayasan Al Mujahidah menggunakan sumur bor untuk mendapatkan pasokan air yang digunakan untuk kebutuhan sehari hari. Masalahnya kondisi air yang diperoleh dari sumur bor berwarna kekuningan, keruh, dan berbau. Warna air sumur yang kekuningan, keruh dan berbau ini menjadi tak layak untuk digunakan apalagi untuk dikonsumsi, tetapi tetap saja warga menggunakan air sumur tersebut untuk keperluan ibadah (mandi dan berwudhu) tanpa melalui proses pengolahan atau penyaringan sama sekali. Implementasi ilmu pengetahuan teknologi di Mesjid Sunnah Alhidayah dan Yayasan Al Mujahidah yang akan dilakukan berupa teknologi alat penjernih air yang diintegrasikan dengan pompa air tenaga surya. alat penjernih air yang diintegrasikan dengan pompa air tenaga surya memiliki keunggulan tidak menggunakan bahan kimia karena hanya menggunakan filter berbasis karbon aktif, pasir zeolit, dan pasir manganese greensand, mengontrol air masuk dan air keluar secara otomatis, filter mudah dibersihkan, menggunakan tenaga surya sehingga ramah lingkungan dan menghemat biaya pembayaran listrik PLN. Implementasi ini dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah yang sedang dihadapi oleh masyarakat di Kelurahan Sari Rejo umumnya dan mesjid Sunnah Alhidayah serta Yayasan Al Mujahidah khususnya dalam proses penjernihan air, sehingga air dari sumur bor menjadi layak untuk digunakan bahkan untuk dikonsumsi.

Abstract

This paper presents a study on designing of a breath-analyzer ethanol biosensor through vaporization technology. A roselle extract and chitosan smart gel were used to fabricate the bio-sensing material. Sol-gel electrochemical deposition method was used to coat a thin film of the sensing material blend on patterned golden surface printed circuit board. Differentiation, response time and repeatability properties were studied by exposing 100ppm, 50ppm and 25ppm of ethanol vapor to the breath-analyzer. The accuracy of the breath-analyzer was tested by using I-V electrical testing. The analyzed data demonstrated that the breath-analyzer ethanol biosensor is capable of identifying the concentration of ethanol vapor at room temperature successfully, which can be used as analyzer of alcohol concentration when the sensor exposed to the exhale breath. The roselle-chitosan film sensors have shown the characteristic of a reliable sensor i.e. good sensitivity, selective, repeatable, able to recover and stable.

Abstract

Extreme rain is an event that has an impact on various sectors of life. Therefore, this study aims to determine the spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme rain events in North Sumatra Province in the time period between 1991-2020. In accordance with the WMO recommended rain index, the frequency and intensity of rain were calculated using 50 rain stations spread across North Sumatra where the data had passed the quality control test for empty data. Spatial patterns were analyzed by mapping the climatological mean of the indices then for trend patterns were tested using the Mann-Kendal non-parametric test. The results showed that extreme rainfall events with low frequency and intensity occurred on the east coast while high frequency and intensity occurred in mountainous areas. Based on the temporal trend test, it shows that in general an insignificant trend dominates in this area. Significant and consistently increasing trends are only found at several points, namely in the districts of Deli Serdang (5 station), Batu Bara (1 station), Humbang Hasundutan (1 station), Langkat (2 station), Labuhan Batu Utara (1 station), Medan (1 station), Pematang Siantar (1 station) and Serdang Bedagai (1 station). Meanwhile, a significant and consistently decreasing trend was found in Asahan Regency (1 station), Simalungun (2 station), North Tapanuli (1 station), and North Labuhan Batu (1 station).

Abstract

Belawan port and coastal areas were also not spared from the impact of the tidal flood. This study aims to determine the performance of the Delft3D hydrodynamic model in simulating sea level and waves in tidal floods at Belawan port and coastal area. Final operational global analysis data, MSLP data from NOAA/NCEP, and tidal data from ECMWF were used to run the Delft3D model. The model output was verified by using tide gauge observation data from BIG (Geospatial Information Agency). This research resulted in a mapping of areas affected by tidal flooding in the Belawan port and coastal area by analyzing the interaction between atmosphere, consisting of wind speed and direction parameters and sea parameters in the form of significant wave height. Based on the results of the Delft3D verification with observation data, the average error value is 23.5 cm and the coefficient of correlation is 0.93. This shows that the Delft3D model is quite good at simulating tidal flood heights in the Belawan port and coastal area. Based on atmospheric analysis, it does not really affect the increasing wave height. The influence is given by significant sea wave height, which can increase the height of tidal floods.

Abstract

This research is based on cases of hail that caused flooding in Binjai City on May 22, 2022. This study aims to see the correlation and regression of the Atmospheric Stability index value on cloud top temperature data from the Himawari-8 satellite imagery. So that the ERA-5 reanalysis data can be used to obtain cloud top temperatures in predicting hail events. The indices used in this study are CAPE, KI and TTI. The data used is located in Binjai City with correlation testing from 00UTC – 24UTC on May 22, 2022. Supported data is used in the form of sea surface temperature and wind conditions and looks at the causes of hail at the research location. The method used is Spearman's rank correlation with the results obtained in the form of a correlation value at the K index of -0.651, a correlation of the TT index of -0.563, and a correlation of the CAPE index of -0.348. The simple linear regression results also show a negative gradient line. This shows that the increase in the value of the stability index is in line with the decrease in cloud top temperature. So that the stability index data can be used as a benchmark in estimating cloud top temperatures in the case of convective cloud formation which causes hail.

Abstract

Soil temperature is a crucial parameter in monitoring and understanding climate and soil ecosystems. It plays a vital role in various environmental aspects, including agriculture, ecology, and geoscience. Monitoring soil temperature is necessary for planning and managing agriculture and natural resources. Currently, temporal observations of soil temperature by BMKG are limited, conducted only at 07:55, 13:55, and 18:55 local time. This limitation makes it difficult to perform detailed soil temperature analysis. This research was conducted to design a digital soil temperature monitoring device accessible via the internet. Seven DS18B20 sensors were used at depths of 0 cm, 2 cm, 5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm, 50 cm, and 100 cm, combined with an ESP8266 module using the Arduino system. The implementation of this design resulted in a real-time soil temperature monitoring system with data updates every 10 seconds. The observed data are displayed on a 20x4 LCD and sent to the cloud, making them accessible on the webpage http://monitoringsuhutanah.my.id. Calibration results indicate that the DS18B20 sensors used in this study provide accurate and consistent temperature measurements, with an average correction range of (-0.20) to 0.24, thus suitable for operational use. Field tests show that the digital data are accurate and correspond (linearly correlate) with conventional data. This is based on a correlation value of 0.7, while the RMSE values range from 0.5 to 2.18 and the bias ranges from (-0.69) to 0.08.
