Abstract

The present study investigated the leaf flushing, leaf shedding, flowering, and fruiting cycles in Tectona philippinensis Benth. & Hook.f., shedding light on its adaptation mechanisms for reproductive success and survival. A plotless inventory of tree individuals was undertaken from pre-determined observation points from January 2022 to February 2023 in Lobo, Batangas. All 430 sampled trees exhibited leaf shedding and leaf flushing, while flowering and fruiting events were observed in only 201 and 133 trees, respectively. Major leaf flushing of trees was observed in mid-October, and they generally shed in summer (peak: March). Trees bloomed in early May and reached its peak in June. Fruiting occurred in the wet season (early July to September). There was a general pattern of leaf shedding, flushing, and varying flowering and fruiting cycles, indicating adaptability to environmental changes. The species also exhibited a significant time lag (7–8 months) between leaf flushing and shedding, potentially serving as adaptive features to promote reproductive success and survival in response to changing environmental conditions. Thus, the aboveground phenology of T. philippinensis may vary depending on environmental conditions. The findings are relevant for developing in-situ conservation strategies for the species. Keywords: flowering, flushing, Lamiaceae, phenological inventory, Shedding

Abstract

The lack of community involvement poses a significant obstacle that may impede the achievement of success in the conservation partnership program between the Mount Merbabu National Park (MMNP) authority and the local community. This study serves a purpose and presents a new approach by investigating the impact of human and social capital on community engagement in the conservation partnership program, with the mediation of the extension worker’s role. This location was determined using a purposive method, focusing primarily on three villages surrounding MMNP, Indonesia. The sampling technique employed was simple random sampling, where 30 respondents were chosen from each village, resulting in a total sample size of 90 respondents. This study examines the variables using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) - Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. Social capital has a positive and significant impact on community engagement through forestry extension workers, while human capital does not affect community conservation partnership involvement through the same workers. This study recommends enhancing social capital to increase community participation in conservation initiatives. Forestry extension officers should improve communication, social networks, and environmental competency to encourage greater community involvement in environmental protection. Keywords: community engagement, extension workers role, forest conservation, human capital, social capital

Abstract

Increasing ambient temperatures due to climate change have significantly impacted workers’ physical and mental workloads, affecting their health and safety. Promoting precautionary behaviors, especially among outdoor workers, is an effective strategy widely recommended for addressing these challenges. Precautionary behavior represents an essential protective mechanism that can be adopted at the individual level. This study explores the connections among Occupational Safety and Health (OSH), risk perception, and precautionary behavior. Descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling with the Partial Least Squares approach were used to analyze the data. This study was conducted at two forest management units in Central Java and East Java, Indonesia, where daily air temperatures are relatively high. The research involved 100 respondents, comprising 50 indoor and 50 outdoor workers. The findings of this investigation reveal that OSH-related knowledge among indoor workers predicts their precautionary behavior. Nevertheless, according to the model, attempts to improve precautionary behavior through knowledge enhancement are estimated to be unsuccessful among outdoor workers. Nonetheless, OSH-related knowledge can facilitate workers in developing a more realistic perception, especially regarding the “dread risk factor” among forestry workers, which can positively impact their precautionary behavior.

Abstract

Lampung is the third largest producer of nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) in Sumatra Island, Indonesia. Most nutmeg essential oil refining industries in Lampung process nutmeg seeds, but not many distill nutmeg leaves. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the chemical compounds of nutmeg essential oil to determine the potential for further processing products and the quality of nutmeg essential oil. The leaf essential oil samples were obtained from a refining industry in Pesawaran, Lampung, Indonesia. The chemical compounds of the essential oils were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Nutmeg leaf essential oil quality was then evaluated according to SNI 06-2388-2006 as standard testing for nutmeg oil. The data were then analyzed descriptively. The results identified 28 active compounds in nutmeg leaf essential oil. Compounds with high relative abundance were streptamine (76.46%), aquinolizine (4.67%), boron (3.73%), kaurene (2.03%), pyrrole (1.95%), and naphthalene. There were also terpenoid compounds that produced aromas, such as guaiol, borneol, cedrene, cubenol, and spathulenol. The quality assessment of leaf nutmeg essential oils also fulfilled the requirement of SNI 06-2388-2006. However, the optical produced rotation towards the left, namely -9.48°, and a specific gravity of 0.87, less than the SNI 06-2388-2006 requirement of 0.88. Nutmeg leaf essential oil has the potential to become a raw material for health and beauty products. Keywords: agroforestry, essential oil, nutmeg leaves, streptamine, terpenoid compounds

Abstract

The microfibril angles (MFAs), relative crystallinity index (RC), and crystallite width (CrW) of compression wood (CPW), lateral wood (LTW), and opposite wood (OPW) in Agathis (Agathis loranthifolia) and Sumatran Pine (Pinus merkusii) stem wood were observed and compared to obtain valuable information on wood quality for effective utilization. The iodine staining method and optical microscopy were applied to measure the MFA in the tangential section. RC and CrW were analyzed with an X-ray diffraction technique. CPW had the largest MFA and the smallest RC in both species. In Agathis, LTW and OPW had comparable MFA, RC, and CrW, whereas the CrW of CPW was the smallest. In Sumatran pine, there was a significant difference in MFA and RC between LTW and OPW. CPW, LTW, and OPW showed comparable CrW. The MFA decreased and RC increased from near the pith to bark in both species. The CrW increased from near the pith to the bark of Sumatran pine, whereas it was constant in Agathis. In conclusion, MFA and RC could be used to identify CPW, LTW, and OPW in both species. There were distinctive MFA and RC properties between reaction wood in both species.

Abstract

Studying leaf trait variation and relationships along elevational gradients will enhance our understanding of how plants respond to changing environmental conditions. Thus, we analyzed the leaf traits variation in ecologically and economically important Parashorea malaanonan and the potential influence of environmental covariables (rainfall, relative humidity, and air temperature) on leaf traits along an elevational gradient in Mount Makiling Forest Reserve (MMFR). Three sampling sites were selected based on elevation, i.e., low (400–500 masl), mid (500–600 masl), and high (> 600 masl). The leaf samples were collected from seedlings, saplings, and adult trees of P. malaanonan. There was no significant variation in most of the measured leaf traits, leaf area (LA), specific leaf area (SLA), leaf thickness (LT), leaf length-to-width ratio (L:W) across sampling sites, except vein density (VD). The SLA and LT at high elevations are significantly and negatively correlated (r2 = 0.7396). The environmental covariables had a significant (p < 0.05) impact on the leaf traits of P. malaanonan. The observed variation in some leaf traits may have been influenced by the elevation gradient and its associated environmental conditions. Thus, P. malaanonan may have developed adaptive mechanisms to cope with the changing environment.

Abstract

One of the wood sources in Indonesia is derived from private forests managed with agroforestry systems. The harvesting operation in these forests will produce harvesting residues. The study aimed to quantify the harvesting residue volume and to construct a prediction model for harvesting residue volume in a private forest managed with an agroforestry system. The study was conducted in a private forest managed with an agroforestry system in Probolinggo, East Java. The method employed for quantifying harvesting residue was a whole-tree method. The harvesting residue was classified into stumps, butt ends, top logs, and branches. Harvesting residues with dbh >= 4 cm were measured after harvesting. The best model was selected based on the Root Mean Squared Error and the adjusted coefficient of determination values.   The number of sample trees was 31 trees, which were chosen by farmers to be felled. The study found that the harvesting residues were 6% of the total harvested volume. The harvesting residue was predominantly the stumps. The best model for estimating harvesting residue volume in agroforestry private forests was V = 0.042VolTot1.248. The study concluded that harvesting operations in private forests managed with agroforestry systems produced a small number of harvesting residues. The harvested volume was the most significant indicator for estimating the harvesting residue volume.     Keywords: agroforestry, harvesting residue, private forests, predicting models

Abstract

Timber extraction in private forests in Indonesia is carried out using appropriate technology. Motorbike extraction is one of the means of timber extraction widely used in private forests in Indonesia. This research aimed to analyze the working time and productivity of timber extraction using motorbikes in private forests. The research was conducted in a private forest in Probolinggo, East Java. The terrain conditions at the study site were partly flat and partly rather steep. The study site can only be accessed through a footpath that is 2 m wide. Observations were made on three motorbikes. The number of trips for each motorbike was 11 trips. The skidding distance was 300 m. Data on timber extraction work time were obtained through video analysis. Production data on timber extraction were obtained through direct measurements in the field. The research showed that the work time spent to transport timber from private forests using motorbikes was 18.18 minutes per trip. The loaded travel spent the highest working time, followed by the empty travel, logs stacking, unloading, and traveling to logs. The efficiency of timber extraction using motorbikes in private forests was 82.11%. The productivity of timber extraction was 0.61 m3/hour or 0.002 m3/hour.m. Keywords: appropriate technology, motorbike, private forests, timber extraction, working time

Abstract

The continuous eruption of the Bromo Tengger Semeru volcanic complex may have impacted the overall biodiversity in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, including amphibians and reptiles. On the other hand, restrictions on traveling during the COVID-19 pandemic may positively impact nature by minimizing the tourism-disturbance. This study analyzes the diversity of reptiles and amphibians before and after COVID-19 and Semeru eruption at Ranu Darungan and Blok Ireng-Ireng (utilization zone) of Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park during three continuous surveys (2019, 2021, and 2022). Preliminary sampling was conducted in August 2021, whereas extensive sampling was carried out in March–May 2022 using a visual encounter survey on two habitat conditions (terrestrial and aquatic); we used previous survey data for 2019. The continuous surveys in Ranu Darungan and Blok Ireng-Ireng showed the herpetofauna diversity consisting of 19 amphibian species (6 families) and 11 reptile species (5 families), where sampling effort in 2022 was adequate to reflect the overall herpetofauna diversity. There was a decrease in the species diversity index in Ranu Darungan after the Semeru eruption, indicating an increase in environmental stress for amphibians. However, the expected trend was not observed before and after the COVID-19 pandemic; other factors (besides reduced human activity at the site) may have contributed.

Abstract

The interacting effects of stem decapitation, water-deficit stress, and pot size on the growth, morpho-anatomical, and physiological traits of Pterocarpus indicus seedlings were analyzed in this study. Changes in root collar diameter (RCD), biomass allocation, number of leaflets (NL), mean leaf area, guard cell size, stomatal aperture size, phloem cap fiber (PCF) thickness, xylem vessel density (XVD), relative leaf water content (RWC), stomatal conductance (gsw), transpiration rate (E), fluorescence quantum yield, transpiration (E), photosynthesis (PN), and electron transport rate (ETR) of decapitated and undecapitated P. indicus seedlings in different pot sizes (small, medium, large) and watering regimes (every 2, 7, and 14 days) were analyzed. The decapitation × water-deficit stress × and pot size interaction did not affect growth and morpho-anatomical variables, but they did on most of the physiological traits. Decapitated seedlings watered every 14 days and planted in medium or large pots have lower gsw, PN, E, and RWC. While the RCD of large-potted and water-stressed (every 14 days) seedlings decreased, allocations to stem and fine roots increased. Moreover, the NL and PCF significantly decreased, while the ETR and XVD significantly increased in decapitated and water-stressed seedlings. Overall, the decapitation-watering interaction caused significant stress to P. indicus seedlings. Keywords: biomass allocations, decapitation, drought stress, multiple stress, xylem vessel density
