ウダヤナ大学から当センターへ 5 人の学生が留学しています。
On November 2007 until April 2008, 5 (fives) Indonesian students are attending Twinning Program inCenter for Environmental Remote Sensing (CEReS) Chiba University. This program is cooperation between
Chiba University and Udayana University (Bali-Indonesia). In this program, Indonesian students attended severalclasses, finished proposal of master thesis, attended seminars and also attended Japanese Language class.
千葉大学とウダヤナ大学（バリ-インドネシア）との国際交流に基づき、ウダヤナ大学から 5 人の学生が当センターへ留学しております。本プログラムは当セン
ターとウダヤナ大学との学術交流協定プログラムの一環に基づいております。
これらの学生は理学部大学院前期課程の講義、修士論文の発表会、セミナーおよび日本語研修センターの講義に出席しております。留学期間は 2007 年 11 月から 2008 年 4 月までの半年間です。
本号では、5 人の学生の研究テーマを紹介いたします。

My thesis subject is determining coastal susceptibility
concern to the pollutant existence using Environmental
Sensitivity Index method (Study case in Western Coast of
Banten Province in West Java Indonesia). To make an
Environmental Sensitivity Index map, I would like tolearn how to combine satellite data, field data and othersupport data using satellite image processing,Geographic Information System (GIS) and scoring
method.

The research title is “Study on Fish Catching of Indian
Mackerel (Rastrelliger kanagurta) using Satellite Data inJava Sea (Case Study: South-East and North-West
Monsoon Period)”. The research aims know relation of
between fish catching and fish season with the satellite
image (sea surface temperature, chlorophyll-a and wind)when north-west and south-east monsoon in Java Sea,
Indonesia.

My thesis subject is study on oceanographic and climatic
factors and its effect to the abundance of Small Pelagic
Fishes in Natuna Sea (Indonesia) using Remote Sensing
Data. The statistical model approach will be applied to
identified the relationship between both factors and fishabundance. Remote sensing data and techniques utilize
to obtain a multi-temporal each variables and to monitor
both variables changes more easily.

HermanThe research title is “The Application Remote Sensing andGIS for Land Potential Fish Pond In Majene, West Sulawesi,Indonesia.”
The research aims know wide comparison mount theland potentially to fish pond in Majene, West Sulawesi,Indonesia.

The eastern part of this forest was severely damaged
when Tropical Cyclone `Sidr` hit the Bangladesh coaston 15th November, 2007. The cyclone has devastated
Sunderban, coastal islands and a vast region of thesouth-western regions of the country though according tothe Joint Typhoon Warning Center, the Category 4
cyclone lost its strength in the hours before landfall.
The investigation conducted at CEReS used several
Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS)
imageries of NASA`s Terra Satellite both before and after
the disaster. The images were downloaded from`MODIS Rapid Response System` website. Three-band(1, 2 and 7) post-disaster image (18th November, 2007)
was visually interpreted. Two classes of vegetation on theimage could be recognized: healthy forest appears ingreen and damaged in tan. Several training samples werecollected from all these vegetation classes and the image
was classified using maximum likelihood algorithm.

The research title is correlation between SST, SSH and
Chlorophyll-a (Satellites data) with Fisheries data todetermining tuna fishing ground in South Java Sea,Indonesia. In Chiba University I would like to learn
about data processing and GIS.

Sunderban Forest, the largest continuous mangrove tract
in the world lies at the mouth of the Ganges and isspread across the areas of Bangladesh and West Bengal,India. The forest covers 10,000 sq. km of which about
62% are in Bangladesh. The forest flora is characterized
by the abundance of Heritiera fomes, Excoecaria

November).

The severe damaged areas of the forest are distributed in
the north-eastern direction (Figure), synchronized withthe tract of the cyclone after landfall. The damaged area
is estimated to be 65,739 ha (657 Sq. km), which isaround 16% of the total Sunderban land area ofBangladesh.
