Abstract

Land cover changes occurring in a watershed will affect the ecosystem in that area. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model is a tool that can be used to predict the impacts of land use on water, sedimentation, and chemical levels in a watershed. The Mamasa watershed is one of the sub-watersheds of the Saddang watershed, covering approximately 105,253 ha. This study aims to determine the land cover changes in the Mamasa watershed and their impacts on water discharge using the SWAT model. Several steps were undertaken, including image interpretation to obtain an overview of land cover in the years 2011, 2016, and 2020, which were then used to form Hydrology Response Units (HRU). Next, the SWAT model was run, involving delineating the watershed boundaries, defining HRU, integrating climate and HRU data, running SWAT simulations, and performing validation. The results of land cover classification from 2011 to 2016 showed an increase in secondary forest land by 4,896.68 ha (4.65%) and a decrease in shrubland by 9,500.60 ha (9.03%). The land cover classification from 2016 to 2020 indicated a decrease in secondary dry forest land by 6,349.43 ha (6.03%), with an increase in paddy field area by 3,141.92 ha (3%). These land cover changes led to a decreasing trend in water availability, as evidenced by increased discharge fluctuations from 16.50 to 21.65, in accordance with the SWAT simulation results, which increased from 6.73 in 2011 to 9.93 in 2020. The validation results of the SWAT model for the year 2011 showed a Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) value of 0.58 and and R2 value of 0.61. The validation for the year 2016 resulted in an NSE of 0.6 and an R2 of 0.68, while the validation for the year 2020 produced an NSE of 0.6 and an R2 of 0.65. All three validations fall under the satisfactory category, indicating that the SWAT model can be used to simulate the discharge of the Mamasa watershed.

Abstract

Spectrometer is one of the tools that can produce a spectrum of light with certain wavelengths. A wavelength produced by measurements using a spectrometer will produce absorbance, reflectance and transmittance values. The result of light absorbed by the object is called absorbance, the light reflected by the object is called reflectance, while that which is not absorbed and not reflected by the object is called transmittance.Objective. The purpose of this study are the wavelength, absorbance value, reflectance and its relationship to color in the post-harvest process so that it is expected to be a reference and can provide information about wavelength, absorbance value, reflectance and its relationship to color in the post-harvest process.Methods. Measuring wavelenght, absorbance and reflectanceduring the postharvest process, both before treatment and after treatment. Results. The results obtained are the absorbance value of fresh green coffee of 0.98%, fresh yellow coffee of 0.18% and red coffee of 0.27%. However, after going through the post-harvest process there is a change in the absorbance value where green coffee that has been dried using the yellow honey method has decreased by 0.92% and the black honey method is 0.38% while yellow and red coffee beans have increased at wavelengths ranging from 300-400 nm and 400-500 nm, as well as roasted coffee. While the reflectance value can be seen that fresh green coffee has a reflectance value of 92%, yellow coffee is 89% and red is 69%. However, after going through the post-harvest process where green and yellow coffee that has been dried using the black honey and yellow honey methods has decreased and red coffee beans have increased at wavelengths around 900-1000 nm, as well as roasted coffee, therefore, can be concluded that the post-harvest process causes the absorbance and reflectance values to change at the same wavelength.These findings are expected could provide the information regarding the change of wavelength, absorbance and reflectance during coffee processing.

Abstract

Coconut water (Cocos nucifera L.) is a natural beverage widely recognized for its high nutritional and health benefits. It contains essential electrolytes such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium, along with various vitamins and antioxidants; however, the quality deteriorates over time during storage. This study compares changes in the quality of young and mature coconut water stored at cold and ambient temperatures over a specific period of time. The research method includes measuring turbidity levels, pH, and total dissolved solids (TDS). The results indicate that both young and mature coconut water experience degradation in quality during storage, although at different rates. Storage at ambient temperature leads to a more rapid decline in quality than cold storage for both maturity types. Additionally, microbial growth is more frequently detected in coconut water stored at ambient temperature, particularly in mature coconut water. This study summarises that the quality of young and mature coconut water is influenced by storage temperature, with mature coconut water deteriorating at a higher rate. These findings can be recommended for storing coconut water at cold temperatures and consuming it shortly after opening it.
