Judul: Analysis Biological and Chemical Characteristics of Soil in Several Types Land Use in Bogor Regency
Abstrak: Penggunaan lahan di Kabupaten Bogor memiliki vegetasi beragam dan karakteristik tanah berbeda. Karakteristik tanah memiliki pengaruh terhadap pengelolaan lahan. Keberadaan mikrob tanah dapat digunakan sebagai bioindikator kesuburan tanah. Kesuburan tanah dihasilkan oleh interaksi sifat fisik, kimia, dan biologi tanah. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui karakteristik sifat biologi dan kimia tanah pada berbagai tipe penggunaan lahan di Kabupaten Bogor. Pengambilan sampel tanah dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode purposive random sampling dengan 5 kali ulangan. Lokasi penelitian meliputi delapan penggunaan lahan yaitu kebun bambu, kebun jabon, kebun sengon, kebun lamtorogung, tegalan, tanaman sereh wangi, kebun buah naga, dan kebun pisang. Hasil analisis menunjukkan lahan pisang dan buah naga memiliki kadar C-organik, N-total tertinggi dan populasi fungi tertinggi yaitu 3,78 x 105 CFU/gram. Sedangkan pada lahan di Kecamatan Jasinga yang memiliki hara dan populasi fungi yang cukup dan populasi Azotobacter tertinggi yaitu pada lahan lamtorogung dapat diusahakan untuk tanaman perkebunan yang lebih memiliki nilai jual lebih tinggi seperti pada lahan tegalan dapat ditanami pohon karet, kelapa sawit, atau kakao., Land use in Bogor Regency has diverse vegetation and different soil characteristics. Soil characteristics have an influence on land management. The presence of soil microbes can be used as bioindicators of soil fertility. Soil fertility is produced by the interaction of physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil. This study aims to determine the characteristics of the biological and chemical properties of soil in various types of land use in Bogor Regency. Soil sampling using the purposive random sampling method with 5 repeats. The research location includes eight land uses, namely bamboo, jabon, sengon, lamtorogung gardens, moorings, fragrant lemongrass plants, dragon fruit orchards, and banana gardens. The results of the analysis showed that banana and dragon fruit fields had the highest C-organic, N-total levels and the highest fungi population of 3,78 x 105 CFU/gram. Meanwhile, on land in Jasinga District which has sufficient nutrients and fungi populations and the highest Azotobacter population, namely on lamtorogung land, it can be cultivated for plantation crops that have a higher selling value, such as in moorlands that can be planted with rubber trees, oil palm, or cocoa.

Judul: Analysis of soil Chemical and Biological Characteristics of Soil in Several Types Land Use in Sulawesi Tengah
Abstrak: Penggunaan lahan yang beragam serta pengelolaan yang intensif mengakibatkan penurunan tingkat kesuburan tanah di suatu lahan. Penggunaan lahan di Sulawesi Tengah banyak difungsikan sebagai perkebunan dan pertambangan sehingga populasi mikrob di setiap penggunaan lahannya berbeda-beda. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui karakteristik sifat kimia dan sifat biologi tanah pada berbagai penggunaan lahan di Sulawesi Tengah. Pengambilan sampel tanah dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode purposive random sampling di Sulawesi Tengah. Lokasi penelitian yaitu Kecamatan Lore Utara dan Mantikulore (pertambangan emas), Kecamatan Nokilalaki (Kakao), dan Kecamatan Banawa Selatan (Kelapa Sawit). Hasil analisis menunjukkan populasi mikrob dan fungi tertinggi terdapat pada penggunaan Lahan Sawit yang memiliki kadar C-organik yang rendah dan kadar N-total yang sedang. Sedangkan populasi mikrob dan fungi terendah terdapat pada lahan Tambang Konvensional dengan kadar C-organik dan N-total yang rendah. Berdasarkan hasil analisis kimia tanah, Lahan Kakao memiliki kadar C-organik dan N-total lebih tinggi di antara penggunaan lahan lain, sedangkan kadar P dan K total t e r t i n g g i dimiliki oleh lahan Tambang Konvensional. Kadar C-organik dan nisbah C/N tanah berpengaruh terhadap tinggi rendahnya nilai respirasi yang dihasilka, Land use diversity and land management intensively have decreased soil fertility. One of the dominant land uses in Central Sulawesi are plantations and mining, which has an impact on the microorganism’s population. This study was aimed to determine the characteristics of chemical and biological properties of soil in various land uses in Central Sulawesi. Soil sampling was carried out using the purposive random sampling method in Central Sulawesi. The research location are North Lore District and Mantikulore District (Mining), Nokilalaki District (Cocoa), and South Banawa District (Oil Palm). The results showed that the highest concentrations of bacteria and fungi population was Oil Palm plantations which has low C-organic levels and moderate total N levels, the lowest bacterial and fungal populations was Conventional Mining with low levels of organic C and total N. Based on soil chemical properties, Cacao land has the highest content of C-organic and the total N, otherwise Conventional mining has the highest Phosphate and Potassium content. Meanwhile, C-organic and C/N ratio of soil have an effect to the high and low value of the soil respiration.

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
