Judul: Perbedaan Karakteristik Tanah pada Lahan Reklamasi PascaTambang dengan Tanah Asli tanpa Top Soil (Studi Kasus di PT.INCO Sorowako, Sulawesi Selatan)
Abstrak: Generally, nickel mining was conducted by open pit mining method. This method caused the change of soil physical, chemical and biological properties. For instance, those change are lost of nutrient and organic matter, soil compaction, pollution, change of soil layer, erotion, sedimentation, and the population decrease of soil microorganism. The effect of the top soil lost is the plant cannot grow normally, so that soil is not productive. Therefore, the research was aimed to know the soil characteristic differences (soil physical, chemical and biological) between reclaimed post mining land and natural soil without top soil. That are survey method is used to taking soil sampling for chemical and biological randomly and composite. Soil sampling for chemical properties was taken from 0-10 cm, 10-20 cm, 20-30 cm, 30-40 cm, 40-50 cm and 50-60 cm depth, and soil sampling for biological properties was taken in 0-10 cm depth. However, sampling for soil physic properties was done in certain points of each location used ring sample in 0-30 cm and 30-60 cm depth. Soil sampling for physical, chemical and biological properties was conducted in post mining PT. INCO Sorowako area, South Sulawesi. This soil sample was taken in 2 locations, which are Reclaimed Post Mining (Harapan) and location not yet mined but the top soil was disected until ±1 meter depth (Shelly). The results of this study showed that based on physical and biological properties of soil in Shelly was better than Harapan. Based on physical properties in Shelly of 0-30 cm depth. The bulk density in Shelly was lower and porosity was higher than in Harapan. Biological properties of 0-10 cm depth showed the total fungi, total of soil microorganism, respiration of soil microorganism and C- mic of Shelly was higher than Harapan. The chemical properties of 0-10 cm depth (C-organic, N-total and CEC) in Harapan was very low, on the other hand in Shelly low. Harapan and Shelly had low P-available and Na-dd, very low Ca-dd, high Mg-dd and very high micro nutrient content except enough for Zn, K-dd content in Harapan medium and Shelly was low. Harapan had very high BS with pH 6.7, and BS in Shelly had high with pH 5.8.

Judul: Analisis Sifat Fisik, Kimia, dan Biologi Tanah pada Lahan Reklamasi Bekas Tambang Batubara PT Berau Coal Site Binungan, Kabupaten Berau, Provinsi Kalimantan Timur
Abstrak: Soil degradation becomes the greatest problem of environmental damage due to coal mining, in particular by open pit method. Proper reclamation must be done to repair post mining land so that soil quality can be recovered approaching the original properties. To analyze the results of the reclamation process on physical, chemical, and biological soil properties changes and their development, it is necessary to study the changes of soil properties at different ages post coal mining land reclamation. This research was aimed to identify the changes of physical, chemical, and biological soil properties in relation to increased reclamation age (0, 3, 6, and 9 years old) and compared them to the nearby forest soil properties. This research was conducted in reclaimed post coal mining lands of PT Berau Coal Site Binungan, East Kalimantan Province (aged 0, 3, 6, and 9 years), and native forest. Soil analysis performed at the Laboratory of Chemical and Soil Fertility, Laboratory of Soil Physics, and Laboratory of Soil Biotechnology, Department of Soil Science and Land Resources, Faculty of Agriculture, Bogor Agricultural University. The results showed that increasing age causes changes in soil properties of reclaimed land approaching the soil properties of original land. This can be seen on the parameters such as bulk density, infiltration capacity, aluminum saturation, C-organic, total N, base saturation, Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), total microbial and fungal, and soil respiration. It is apparent that chemical and biological soil properties on reclaimed land change relatively faster approaching the chemical and biological soil properties of the original land compared to that of physical soil properties.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
