Abstract

Bird migration is a critical ecological phenomenon influenced by various factors such as temperature changes, food availability, and reproductive cycles. Understanding the dynamics of migratory bird populations within specific regions is essential for conservation efforts. This study aims to identify migratory bird species within Banda Aceh City, focusing on the phenomenon of overstaying migratory birds. Conducted between April and June 2022, data collection took place in several locations, employing the concentration count method. Descriptive data analysis was performed to catalog bird species, and the Shannon-Wiener index was utilized to assess biodiversity. Results revealed the presence of four shorebird species. The study underscores the importance of protecting migratory bird populations in urban environments and highlights the potential impacts of their loss or disruption. Joint conservation efforts are crucial to safeguarding these species, and favorable conditions may encourage some individuals from commonly migrating species to remain in urban areas.

Abstract

Abstract: Ferns are a type of biodiversity that is spread to live on the forest floor and plays an important role in ecological functions, such as humus formation, protecting soil from erosion, and maintaining soil moisture. This study aims to determine the distribution of fern species at different heights in the Gunung Raya Protection Forest, Temajuk Village and their potential for the community. The method in this study, namely the cruising method to observe ferns on soil contours with an altitude of 25-125 meters above sea level, 125-225 meters above sea level, and 225-325 meters above sea level. Environmental parameters including temperature, humidity, light intensity, soil pH and wind speed were measured at each altitude.  Herbarium was made to identify ferns. Information about the potential of ferns was obtained from the surrounding community. The results showed that there were 14 species of ferns belonging to 7 families. Ferns found were as many as 14 species at an altitude of 25-225 masl decreased to 10 species at the highest contour (325 masl). The four species that were not found were Stenochlaena palustris, Nephrolepis cordifolia, Hypolepis punctata, and Davalia divaricata. Of the 14 species of ferns, 11 of them have potential as vegetables, medicines, ornamental plants, and craft materials.

Abstract

The problem of stunting in Indonesia is still quite high, namely 21,6% based on data from the 2022 Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI). One of the effective measures to control stunting is through providing additional food (PMT) such as biscuits to children. Carrots and pumpkin are local foods that are rich in beta carotene. Carotenoids as a source of provitamin A are able to overcome the problem of vitamin A deficiency (VAD), which is the cause of growth disorders in children. This research aims to determine the effect of substitution of yellow pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) and carrot (Daucus carota L.) composite flour on organoleptic characteristics including color, aroma, taste, texture and nutritional content (beta carotene, carbohydrates, protein and fat). This research used a Randomized Block Design (RAK) with 3 treatments, namely formula 1 (150 grams of wheat flour, 50 grams of pumpkin flour and 50 grams of carrot flour), formula 2 (50 grams of wheat flour, 60 grams of pumpkin flour and 50 grams of flour carrots) and formula 3 (50 grams of wheat flour, 50 grams of pumpkin flour and 150 grams of carrot flour) with 3 repetitions. The research results showed that formula 3 biscuits were the best formulation in terms of organoleptic characteristics with the highest beta carotene content compared to F1 and F2. F3 biscuits contain 30,97 mg beta carotene, 7,45 grams of carbohydrates, 3,22 grams of protein and 8,89 grams of fat. The conclusion of this research is that the substitution of wheat flour with composite flour (Cucurbita moschata and Daucus carota L.) has an effect on the nutritional content (beta carotene, carbohydrates, protein and fat) of biscuits. Consuming pumpkin biscuits per 100 grams can qualify as a good source of the antioxidant beta carotene.

Abstract

Tomato plants are one of the leading horticultural commodities that are easily attacked by disease. Plant wilt disease is one of the diseases that often attacks tomato plants which is caused by Fusarium oxysporum. The use of chemical fungicides causes many losses, so there is a need for plant-based fungicides made from natural ingredients. Kirinyuh leaves and Noni leaves are natural ingredients that can be used as a vegetable fungicide to control fungi Fusarium oxysporum. The experiment was carried out alive and prepared using a Completely Randomized Design with 6 treatments and 6 replications. Data obtained from observations will be analyzed using the Duncan test at the 5% level. The concentrations used by each extract were 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80%, negative control (Aquadest), positive control (dithane M-45). The results showed that the Noni leaf extract fungicide with a concentration of 60% had the most effective effect in inhibiting the fungal growth zone Fusarium oxysporum on tomatoes.

Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of the “Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM)” program in the Biology Education Study Program (BESP) on various campuses in Indonesia with a special focus on the integration of local wisdom. Data was collected from respondents in 44 study programs covering aspects such as campus status, accreditation, course repositioning, implementation of MBKM activities, and suggestions and recommendations for program improvement. The results of the analysis show that the majority of study programs at state campuses (75%) have repositioned the curriculum and implemented various forms of MBKM activities such as student exchanges (70.45%), internships/work practices (68.18%), and teaching assistance. The integration of local wisdom is emerging as an important aspect, with many study programs using local wisdom in academic activities and business product development, such as using traditional medicinal plants for health products. Key suggestions from respondents included the need for standardization of guidelines, financial assistance for students, periodic evaluations, and adjusting the curriculum to the needs of the times. Most study programs have ensured that MBKM activities follow the formulated Program Learning Outcomes (PLO), with 63.64% of study programs stating that they always ensure this suitability. However, there are still challenges in the process of recognizing MBKM activities into courses and integrating these activities into a thesis or final project, with 77.27% of study programs not carrying out this integration. The study concludes that although MBKM has been doing well, there is still room for improvement. There needs to be further efforts in terms of integrating local wisdom, financial support, and strengthening collaboration between educational institutions and local communities. Clear and standardized implementation of guidelines, as well as continuous evaluation, are essential to improve the effectiveness and benefits of the MBKM program.

Abstract

The strategy for controlling dengue vector through periodic monitoring is an effective mitigation effort. Periodic monitoring of dengue vectors is generally more often conducted in the larval stage rather than the egg stage. Monitoring Aedes eggs periodically using ovitraps is more effective because it is not restricted by season. The objective of this study is to conduct spatial mapping of Aedes spp. distribution using ovitraps in Baitussalam Subdistrict, Aceh Besar. This study used observational methods and purposive sampling to determine the sample houses for ovitrap placement. A total of 50 houses in 5 gampong/village were observed. Analysis was conducted using the GPS Essentials application and Google Earth Pro software. The results showed that there were 4 gampong with Aedes spp. egg distribution in Baitussalam Subdistrict, Aceh Besar, namely Gampong Blang Krueng, Gampong Baet, Gampong Kajhu, and Gampong Cadek, while in Gampong Lam Ujong, no ovitraps positive for Aedes eggs. Ovitraps are an effective method for mapping Aedes spp. in efforts to control dengue. Keyword: Aedes spp; Dengue fever; ovitrap; spatial mapping.

Abstract

A typical food ingredient of the Aceh region, especially the western and southern, is Asam drien (language from the West Aceh region). Asam drien is made from durian fruit meat, usually due to the abundance of durian fruit, or because the durian fruit is of poor quality such as the taste of the bland fruit meat, then most of the people utilize the durian fruit into Asam drien which can be used as a seasoning for cooking. The purpose of this study was to identify the morphological characteristics of bacterial and fungal colonies in Asam drien processing, this study used a qualitative descriptive method for colony characteristics, and biochemical tests. The results of research on bacteria and fungi in Asam drien found 14 colonies from the entire fermentation both at home and in the laboratory, namely irregular and diffuse, elongated, round, and threaded shapes; colony color characteristics obtained only one color, namely cream color; characteristics of colony edges there are 5, namely: wavy, squiggly, smooth, serrated, and threadbare. Colony elevation characteristics obtained 2 forms, namely flat and raised. There are 2 types of colony surface characteristics, namely rough and smooth shiny. Then reisolated on selective media DeMan Rogosa Sharpe Agar (MRS Agar) for lactic acid bacteria. The results of observations found 11 colonies from the entire fermentation each consisting of 2 types of isolates Ka and Kb which are Gram-positive bacteria bacillus and coccus cell forms. As well as fungi that grow on Asam drien, namely the genus Rhizopus and the type of yeast found from the genus Saccharomyces. The catalase test on Asam drien bacteria is positive, has proteolytic, amylolytic, and cellulolytic potential, but is not able to hydrolyze fat and alcohol.
