Abstrak: The experiment was aimed to increase the rematuration injection of process rate on striped catfish Pangasianodon hypophthalmus through Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotropin (PMSG) dan Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) hormone combined with vitamin mix addition to the feed. The experiment was designed with four treatment : (A) Control; (B) PMSG 5 IU and HCG 2,5 IU per kg of fish; (C) PMSG 10 IU and HCG 5 IU per kg of fish; (D) PMSG 20 IU and HCG 10 IU per kg of fish. The fish was fed with commercial pellet which added with 100 mg/kg addition vitamin mix. The result showed that all the fish treatment with hormone mix and vitamin mix have a significant gonadal development, and mature, except control. The fish also have significant on Specific Growth Rate (SGR) and Growth Rate (GR). The dose PMSG 20 IU and HCG 10 IU showed of the optimal treatment for gonadal rematuration for striped catfish.

Abstrak: This research was conducted to obtain a dose of PMSG (pregnant mare serum gonadotropin) that can induce rematuration of striped catfish Pangasionodon hypopthalmus. Induced rematuration was performed using PMSG combined with feeding fish a diet supplemented with vitamin mix 200 mg/kg diet. PMSG dosage given was 5, 10, and 20 IU/kg body weight respectively, induction was done once a week in a 4 weeks period. Control didn’t injected by PMSG. The research resulted that 10 IU dosage induction gave a faster maturation compared to other dosages at the fifth week with 50% of broodstocks are pregnant. Broodstock injected with dosage of 20 IU began to mature gonads at the sixth week. There was one broodstock that has mature gonads at the sixth week, while broodstock injected with dosage of 5 IU immature gonads until the sixth week. Percentage of broodstocks pregnant for all treatment is 100%. Percentage of broodstocks pregnant was counted visually through the observation of the stomach shape and the presence of eggs with cannulation. But not every pregnant broodstock eggs were ready to be fertilized. More over, egg quality were also examined by measuring egg diameter, fecundity, FR (Fertilization Rate), HR (Hatching Rate), and SR (Survival Rate). Broodstock fecundity was measured 157576 ± 34284 (10 IU) and 290909 (20 IU). While FR, HR, and SR values are 35.57 ± 10.79%; 44.30 ± 13.87%; 79.81 ± 13.87% (10 IU), and 54.28%; 78.81%; 90.51% (20 IU) respectively. Egg diameter was in a range of 0.724 ± 0.062 – 0.94 ± 0.374 mm. Furthermore striped catfish rematuration rate could be increased by PMSG injection. Premix addition increased egg quality in terms of egg diameter, fecundity, FR, HR, and SR of produced larva. Induced rematuration with PMSG suspected to be able to support increase in national striped catfish fry production.

Judul: Utilization of terra/MODIS L1B data for analysis of horizontal wind profile in the troposphere
Abstrak: This study was concerned with horizontal wind derived from data collected with the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board the NASA’s Earth Observation System (EOS)-Terra satellite. The aim of this study is to develop a method for the estimation of horizontal wind movement in the troposphere based on Navier-Stokes equation. The method was applied to a calibrated and geolocated Terra/MODIS L1B 1 km data set. The data inputs to estimate surface temperature are retrieved from TIR (Thermal Infrared) bands 31 (10.780 μm to 11.280 μm) and 32 (11.770 μm to 12.270 μm). The obtained surface temperatures were later used to approximate geopotential height on a constant-pressure surface by using the modified Poisson equation. The main assumptions used are the hydrostatic equilibrium, ideal gas law, constant lapse rate and constant acceleration of gravity. Based on the distribution of geopotential height, the pressure gradient force is measured by the gradient of geopotential on an isobaric coordinate to present the horizontal wind profile. For certain topographic areas especially in the mountain ranges, there was a disadvantage of using pressure as a vertical coordinate which lead to inaccuracy. In spite of that, Terra/MODIS L1B data with 1 km spatial resolution can be used to estimate the horizontal wind movement in the troposphere.
