Judul: Organic Mineral Mixed Supplementation In The Feed Of Isa Brown Laying Hens On The Performance And Quality Of Eggs Aged 68-75 Weeks
Abstrak: Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengevaluasi suplementasi campuran mineral organik dalam pakan terhadap performa dan kualitas telur ayam Isa brown umur 68-75 minggu. Penelitian ini menggunakan 2033 ayam petelur strain Isa brown berumur 68 minggu sampai 75 minggu. Dalam pengujian kualitas, 24 sampel digunakan. Penelitian ini menggunakan 2 perlakuan dan 12 ulangan. Metode yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yaitu: T0 (pakan kontrol), dan T1 (pakan kontrol + suplementasi campuran mineral organik). Variabel yang diamati adalah kualitas telur (warna kerabang, kekuatan kerabang, ketebalan kerabang, dan haugh unit) dan performa yang diamati (konsumsi pakan, produksi telur, bobot telur, konversi pakan, dan produksi massa telur). Data dianalisis menggunakan uji paired sample T-test dan uji wilcoxon dengan taraf 5%. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa suplemen campuran mineral organik berpengaruh nyata (P<0,05) terhadap produksi telur ayam, konversi pakan, produksi massa telur, warna cangkang, ketebalan cangkang, dan kekuatan cangkang, tetapi tidak terdapat perbedaan nyata (P>0,05) terhadap bobot telur, konsumsi pakan, dan haugh unit. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan suplementasi campuran mineral organik dapat memberikan hasil yang baik pada performa dan kualitas telur ayam sehingga dapat diaplikasikan., This study was conducted to evaluate organic mineral mixed suplementation In the feed of Isa brown laying hens on the performance and quality of eggs aged 68-75 Weeks. This study used 2033 laying hens strain Isa brown aged 68 weeks to 75 weeks. In quality testing, 24 samples were used. This study used 2 treatments and 12 replications. The method used was Completely Randomized Design (CRD) were: T0 (control feed), and T1 (control feed + organic mineral mixture supplementation). The observed variables were egg quality (shell color, shell strength, shell thickness, and haugh unit) and observed performance (feed consumption, egg production, egg weight, feed conversion, and egg mass production). Data were analyzed using paired sample T-test and wilcoxon test with a level of 5%.The results showed that organic mineral mix supplement had a significant effect (P<0,05) on hen day production, feed conversion, egg mass production, shell color, shell thickness, and shell strength, but there was no significant difference (P>0,05) on feed consumption, egg weight, haugh unit. The results of this study can be concluded that the use of organic mineral mixture supplementation can provide good results on the performance and quality of chicken eggs so that it can be applied.

Judul: Organic Mineral Mixed Suplementation in Feed on Isa Brown Laying Hens Performance and Quality 90-97 Weeks
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi suplementasi campuran mineral organik dalam pakan pada ayam petelur . Penelitian menggunakan 1444 ekor ayam. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) dengan 2 perlakuan dan 11 ulangan. Perlakuan yang digunakan adalah T0 = pakan komersial, dan T1 = pakan komersil + campuran mineral organik. Parameter yang diamati terdiri dari warna kerabang, kekuatan kerabang, ketebalan kerabang, haugh unit, hen day production, konsumsi pakan, bobot telur, dan konversi pakan. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji T. Hasil penelitian berpengaruh nyata meningkatkan hen day production, konversi pakan, konsumsi pakan, warna kerabang, ketebalan kerabang, dan kekuatan kerabang (P <0,05), namun tidak berpengaruh pada bobot telur dan haugh unit (P >0,05). Penerapan suplementasi campuran mineral organik dapat meningkatkan hen day production, konsumsi pakan, konversi pakan, kekuatan kerabang, warna, ketebalan kerabang telur ayam petelur strain Isa Brown, namun belum mampu meningkatkan haugh unit dan bobot telur., This study was aimed to evaluate supplementation of organic mineral mix in feed for Isa Brown hens. The study used 1444 chickens. This study used a completely randomized design (RAL) with 2 treatments and 11 replications. The treatments used were T0 = commercial feed and T1 = commercial feed + organic mineral mixture. Parameters observed consisted of shell color, shell strength, shell thickness, haugh unit, hen day production, feed consumption, egg weight, and feed conversion. Data were analyzed using T test. The results showed that significantly improved hen day production, feed conversion, feed consumption, shell color, shell thickness, and shell strength (P <0,05), but had no effect on egg weight and haugh unit (P >0,05). The application of organic mineral mixture supplementation can increase hen day production, feed consumption, feed conversion, shell strength, color, egg shell thickness of laying hens strain Isa Brown, but has not been able to increase the haugh unit and egg weight.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
