Abstract

Technological developments, especially in remote sensing in mangrove mapping are growing. One of them is the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) as a vehicle for capturing aerial photo data. This study aims to map the mangrove ecosystem in order to find out spatial information with UAV technology and to identify mangrove species, distribution, and associations. The ground survey was conducted on 02 until 04 May 2019 in North of Lancang Island, Seribu Islands, DKI Jakarta Province. The mangrove data collection was carried out in four stations with marking, tracking the mangrove area and drone flights for taking aerial photo data. Based on the research, it was found that the mangroves were in good condition with an area of around 4 hectares, consisting of Rhizophora mucronata. However, there is a lot of waste around the mangrove ecosystem, especially inorganic waste in the form of plastic. Where the presence of garbage can cover the roots of the mangrove so that it can affect respiration and cause death in mangroves. The application of UAV technology that is integrated with GIS in mangrove ecosystem mapping is expected to be an alternative in extracting mangrove databases for future coastal ecosystem management.

Abstract

Natural defect or poor log quality are common in community teak forests. Furniture manufacturers typically use these log types for export purposes. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of community teak forest location and teak stand age affect on teak wood quality. Three teak forest locations were Bantul and two locations in Gunung Kidul. The teak stand age class namely 6, 8, and 10 years old. The data was analyzed using SPSS 20.0 with Tukey test. The result showed that brittleness defect, sapwood defect, and different wooden knot defects were significant in all locations, while log straightness defect was found only in Dlingo. Similarly, all teak stand age (6, 8, and 10 years old) also produced the same defects such as brittleness defect, sapwood defect, and wood knot defect, while the straightness defect at the age of 10 years old was different from to other two teak stand age (6 and 8-year-old). Average teak log defects were straightness defect 1.87-3.53%, brittleness defect 1.19–6.21%, sapwood defect 1.49-4.82 cm, and wood knot defect 5.10-11.46 cm. However, the teak log quality still met the SNI 7534.2-2010 and 7535.2-2010 as raw material for exporting furniture.

Abstract

Surakarta City's population is growing every year, putting pressure on the land and vegetation. Surakarta City has a population of 500,173 people in 2010. The population of this city is growing every year, driving an increase in the demand for land and living facilities. This study aims to analyze the availability of vegetated land as urban green space, and calculate the 5-year (2010–2015) vegetation cover changes. The methods used visual interpretation and on-screen digitization of the image Landsat 7 ETM+ satellite in 2010 and Landsat 8 OLI satellite image in 2015. The results show that the availability of vegetated land as urban green space in Surakarta City is lower than that mandated in Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning. Vegetation cover decreased from 2010 to 2015 in Surakarta City, covering an area of 117.7 ha (2.6% of the city area) or an average of 23.5 ha (0.5%) per year. Research on the availability of green open spaces on a regular basis is expected to be part of the process of monitoring and evaluating urban development and as input for local governments in the decision-making process.

Abstract

Teak planlets (Tectona grandis) of Salomon clones were irradiated by gamma rays to induce genetic variability for growth improvement. The objectives of this research were to analyze the radiosensitivity of T. grandis Salomon clones by gamma ray irradiation and to analyze the genetic variations using Random Amplified Polymorphic Deoxyribonucleic Acid (RAPD). For those purposes, teak planlets were irradiated using gamma rays at 5 different dosages, those were 0 Gy, 10 Gy, 20 Gy, 30 Gy, and 40 Gy. Lethal doses50 (LD50) and reduced doses50 (RD50) were obtained using Curve-fit Analysis. Furthermore, the irradiated planlets were subcultured on medium MS + 0.1 kinetin (M1V0) the surviving M1V0 plantlets were multiplied to MS + 0.1 kinetin, so it is obtained the M1V1 generation. Genetic variation of the mutant was molecularly analyzed using RAPD methods and the variability was calculated using Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA). Results of this research showed that lethal doses50 (LD50) and reduced doses50 (RD50) values were obtained at 24.5 Gy and 7.85 Gy, respectively. It includes genomes of small size and a small number of genomes. The genetic variation of mutant individuals in among and within the treatment of gamma irradiation was 16% and 84% according to AMOVA. It means that the dominant effect of genetic material caused genetic variation in mutant M1V1 generations. This dominance of genetic material could be caused by the response combination of tissue culture treatment and genetic factors that had the potency to be used as materials to select desired clones in the next stage.

Abstract

Mangroves hold several benefits, one of which is barriers from marine abrasion, food sources, aquatic habitats, carbon sinks and storages, places for education and training, ecotourism sites, and sources of ruminant feed. This study aimed to determine the potential of mangroves as sources of ruminant feed and its carrying capacity for sustainable mangrove utilization. The research was conducted in Belawan Sicanang Subdistrict by using purposive sampling for vegetation analysis and questionnaire method. Avicennia marina, Bruguiera sexangula, B. gymnorrhiza, Nypa fruticans, Rhizophora apiculata, Sonneratia alba, and Thespesia populnea were among the mangrove species used by the farmer. The total capacity of mangrove species as ruminant feed in the animal unit (AU) was obtained as dry matter (835.48 AU), crude protein (481.24 AU), and total digestible nutrient (873.77 AU). The carrying capacity of mangroves as represented in the form of dry matter (13.74), crude protein (7.91), and total digestible nutrient (14.36), were categorized as safe. In addition, the potential additional populations based on the safe level of carrying capacity (2.5) was 273 AU, based on crude protein for 131 AU, and based on total digestible nutrients for 288 AU.

Abstract

Lepan watershed has declined in function over the past two decades. One of the contributing factors is unsustainable forest management and low public awareness in maintaining an ecosystem. Upstream damage occurs due to illegal logging and deforestation for agricultural purposes or exploitation of forest products. Meanwhile, the conversion of forest land into commercial or residential use occurs in the middle to downstream areas. The research used a descriptive analysis method based on Situation, Structure, Behavior, Performance (SSBP), and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method with data processing using the Expert Choice software. Research shows that the government's percentage of performance related to policies that have been implemented in the Lepan watershed is considered reasonable by the community, with a value reaching 62%. Alternatives in providing of Lepan watershed being healthy is returning of function by value weight 5.6, conservation by value weight 3.4, and planting by value weight 2.1

Abstract

The Forest Management Unit (FMU/KPH) Region I Stabat, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra Province has an important role in realizing success and forest management at the site level. The description of the performance of FMU development is required by policy makers as part of the policy evaluation. In the evaluation of the policy, an assessment of the substance, implementation, and impact of the policy can be carried out. Policy evaluation is functional, with the intention of providing input for process improvement and continuous improvement of performance measures. However, there are still problems in the field that must be addressed immediately so that forest resource management can run well, such as the unfinished process of boundary demarcation reconstruction, regional stability, investment mechanisms and so on. The purpose of this research is to assess the performance of the successful level of forest management implementation at the site level. The method used in the assessment is the analysis of the components of the criteria and indicators developed by Forest Watch Indonesia (FWI) Version 2.0, document verification, and in-depth interviews. The results of the assessment show that the FMU Region I Stabat has a fairly good performance in carrying out forest management in accordance with its function as a forest resource manager at the site level. Several criteria need to be strengthened so that these criteria can run well. These criteria include regional stability and investment mechanisms.

Abstract

Mekar Utama Village, located in the Ketapang Industrial Forest Area (Hutan Ketapang Industri-HKI), is a unique and attractive ecotourism site with various natural resources. This village's three hamlets have the potential for biological and cultural ecotourism. The study aims to obtain potential data and interpret the biological and socio-cultural ecotourism in Mekar Utama village. The method used was a survey with observation and interview approaches. Three interpretive tracks and 18 biological and cultural ecotourism potential were available at the study site. Nine potential plants found were kantung semar (Nepenthes sp. ), bamboo (Bambusa sp. ), bajakah (Spatholobus littoralis Hassk), pasak bumi (Eurycoma longifolia Jack), ulin (Eusideroxylon zwageri), meranti (Shorea smithiana), gaharu (Aquilaria malaccensis), ketatai (Antiaris toxicaria) and pulai (Alstonia scholaris). Ulin, meranti, and gaharu are protected species. Kura-kura hutan (Dogania suplana), owa kelawat (Hylobates albibarbis), and honey bee (Apis koschevnikovi and Trigona sp.) were three unique animal species. Six potential cultures were found, i.e. ethnic, traditions, traditional rituals, arts, special foods, historical/sacred places, and folklore/myths. All the potentials were found in three interpretation tracks, i.e., the Gantang river hamlet, which was 6.5 km long and took 26 minutes to reach, the Sukaria hamlet, which was 5.3 km long and took 21
