Abstract

Oceanographic parameters are related to the distribution of fish in the waters. The purpose of this study was to analyze the distribution trends of sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a (CHL) and to determine the spatial-temporal correlation with the catch of yellowfin tuna. This research took place in WPP 573 and 713 between the north and south of the Alas Strait. Remote sensing methods and statistical regression analysis for SST and CHL in 2023 over 12 months. The penetration results of Aqua MODIS in 2023 show the highest fluctuation SST trend in December (30.71°C), the lowest in August (27.3°C). The highest CHL distribution occurred in December (37.81 mg/m3), and the lowest in February (0.66 mg/m3). The results of linear regression analysis between SSTs; CHL; SST and CHL, for yellowfin tuna fishing, obtained a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.421 each; 0,476; 0.623. Conclusions: 1). The relationship between SST and CHL with yellowfin tuna is in the strong category; 2). The fluctuating catch of yellowfin tuna causes the CHL and SST trends to change every month. CHL and SST values were highest in December, but they did not have a major effect on catches.

Abstract

Hypertension is a major contributor to cardiovascular complications, including aortic aneurysms, which can be fatal if left untreated. This study aims to examine the relationship between the level of hypertension, particularly stage 2, and the incidence of aortic aneurysm. A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted using medical records of 24 patients diagnosed with varying degrees of hypertension and aortic aneurysm at Harapan Keluarga Hospital in December 2024. Statistical analysis using the chi-square test revealed a significant association between hypertension severity and the incidence of aortic aneurysm (p = 0.000), with an odds ratio of 2.001 (95% CI: 2.010–2.229). These findings emphasize the need for enhanced patient education and preventive strategies, particularly among those with hypertension stage 2, to mitigate the risk of aneurysm-related complications.

Abstract

Rice weeds are one of the pest organisms that can reduce production yields.rice because own allelophaty which are parasitic and kill plants directly.The existence of weeds has received little attention from the community in Tahoa Village, even though their existence can damage rice plants (Oryza sativa L.). Purpose of this research can provides information related to the diversity of weed types and their evenness in ricecultivation in Tahoa Village, Kolaka. Sampling was carried out bymaking a plot size of 1 mx 1 m as many as 27 plots divided into 3 stations. The data obtained will be analyzed descriptively and quantitatively and then displayed in the form of tables anddocumentation. Based on the results of the study in Tahoa Village, Kolaka District, Kolaka Regency, 6 families, 8 genera and 8 species were found, namely Digitalia ciliaris, Cynodondactylon, Paspalum scropiculatum L, Alternanthera sessilis L, Sphenoclea zeylanica Geartn., Oldenlandia corymbosaL, Ludwigia octovalvis And Fimbristylis miliacea L. Based on the research results, the most species found were Sphenoclea zeylanica Geartn.. The diversity index (H') of the three stations, namely H'(1.62) states that the diversity of the research location is classified as moderate. The evenness index (E) of the three stations, namely E (0.78) states that the weed evenness index at the research location is classified as high. This is because these weeds have high adaptability to environmental changes both in drought and rain conditions. However, further study is needed regarding the physiology of the weeds found to obtain information regarding their parasitic nature on rice plants.

Abstract

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is Indonesia’s main cereal crop and is classified into three types based on color: white, red, and black. Among these, black rice has the highest antioxidant content. As a secondary metabolite, antioxidant levels vary depending on regional characteristics. On Sumba Island in East Nusa Tenggara, black rice known as Wojalaka grows across four districts with distinct environmental conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the flavonoid content of Wojalaka black rice from these districts. Using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, ground rice samples were extracted via methanol maceration and analyzed through linear regression. The flavonoid levels found were West Sumba (Lamboya) 74.03 µg/L; Southwest Sumba (Kodi) 67.67 µg/L; Central Sumba (Umbu Ratunggai) 31.65 µg/L; and East Sumba (Matawai) 132.16 µg/L. The highest flavonoid concentration was observed in Matawai at 132.16 µg/L, while the lowest was in Umbu Ratunggai at 31.65 µg/L. These results indicate that flavonoid content depends on habitat conditions the drier the environment where the rice grows, the higher its flavonoid levels.

Abstract

Macroalgae or also called seaweed are defined as macroscopic marine algae. This study aims to analyze the structure of macroalgae community in the coastal waters of Klui Beach, North Lombok. Samplings were conducted by using the combination of line transect and quadrat method. The macroalgae data collected were analyzed for calculating of species diversity index, eveness index, dominance index, and importance value index. The results showed that the community of macroalgae in the coastal water of Klui Beach consists of 11 species. The community of macroalgae of the coastal water of Klui Beach had species diversity index value of 1,661 (moderate category), evenness index value of 0,693 (relatively non-uniform category). However, the species  dominance index value was 0,246 which indicates that there was no dominance species. Ulva intestinalis was the species with the highest importance value (81,93%). This species was also recorded as the highest density. Environmental protection efforts must be considered in the development of tourism areas for the sustainability of macroalgae community in the coastal waters of Klui Beach, North Lombok.

Abstract

Significant economic and population growth around the world has led to various problems, especially fossil fuel scarcity, energy production, as well as an increase in the volume of organic waste (agricultural, municipal, and industrial waste). As an alternative energy source, Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) was chosen due to its promising prospects. The use of thermophilic bacteria and consortiums were chosen for their potential advantages in MFC systems. This study aims to explore the potential of thermophilic bioelectrogenous bacterial isolates of Sungai Sapan Aro (SSA) consortium 14&16 in producing bioenergy using various agricultural waste substrates (corn cob, rice straw, rice husk, and glucose as control). The results showed no significant difference in the use of agricultural waste substrates in the MFC system. Quantitatively, corn cobs produced voltages almost equivalent to glucose (control), while rice straw and rice husk produced lower voltages. The resulting voltages were glucose (0.59467 V), corn cob (0.57633 V), rice straw (0.43300 V), and rice husk (0.40400 V). The results of this study show better performance compared to previous studies in the field of electricity generation through MFCs.

Abstract

Agroforestry management in dry land in Dompu Regency is important and strategic in efforts to improve resource sustainability and community welfare, namely by combining forestry and agricultural elements to create a sustainable and adaptive farming system to environmental changes. This paper aims to: (1) describe the concept and role of agroforestry in dry land farming; (2) analyze agroforestry management in realizing a sustainable farming system in Dompu Regency from an ontology perspective, and (3) analyze agroforestry models that can be developed in dry land farming in Dompu Regency. The method used in this study is a literature review: Data is analyzed descriptively. The results of the study indicate that: (1) Agroforestry is an integrated land management approach that integrates elements of forestry, agriculture, and livestock in one system to produce ecological and economic benefits simultaneously. (2) The application of agroforestry in Dompu Regency requires a multidimensional approach based on a comprehensive ontological understanding, covering physical and biological aspects, time dynamics, socio-economics, as well as axiological and epistemological dimensions; and (3) Several agroforestry models that have the potential to be developed in the dry land areas of Dompu Regency include: alley cropping (alley planting), silvopasture (combining trees and livestock), multistrata (tiered) systems, and intensive yard gardens. The selection of the right model must be adjusted to the biophysical characteristics of the land, the socio-economic conditions of the community, and the capacity of local institutions so that its implementation can run optimally and sustainably.

Abstract

Host plants play an important role in the survival of butterflies, especially in the larval phase which is highly dependent on certain types of plants to obtain nutrients and essential chemicals. Various efforts need to be made to preserve the diversity of butterflies in the Gunung Tunak TWA Area through identification of butterfly larval host plants. This study was conducted to identify the diversity of butterfly larval host plants in the Gunung Tunak Nature Tourism Park, Central Lombok, NTB. Data collection was carried out using the exploration method for four days in two main locations, namely the breeding area and the observation route. The identification results found seven species of host plants, namely Pagoda (Clerodendrum japonicum), Biduri (Calotropis gigantea), Beringin (Ficus hispida), Aristukia (Aristolochia tagala), Bunga Air Mata Pengantin (Antigonon leptopus), Jeruk Purut (Citrus hystrix), and Jeruk Lemon (Citrus limon). Four of the seven plants found are hosts for butterfly larvae of the Nymphalidae family. Aristukia plants were only found in limited numbers, which may affect the survival of the protected butterfly species, Troides helena. These results emphasize the importance of conserving host plants to support the sustainability of butterfly populations in this area.
