Judul: Peningkatan Pertumbuhan dan Hasil Tanaman Gedi (Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik.) dengan Aplikasi Pupuk Organik dan Pupuk Anorganik
Abstrak: The objective of this research was to study the effect of organic fertilizer and anorganic fertilizer rate to the growth and yield of gedi (Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik.). This research was conducted at Cikabayan Farm, Institut Pertanian Bogor, Indonesia from February to August 2011. The material plant was collected from Sorong, West Papua. The experiment was arranged in Completely Randomized Block Design with fertilizer rate as a single factor treatment. There were eight fertilizer rate treatments such as 0, 20, 40, 60 ton.ha−1 organic fertilizer and 0, 20, 40, 60 ton.ha−1 organic fertilizer + NPK. The organic fertilizer was used chicken manure and anorganic fertilizer NPK 15-15-15. The result of this research showed that using 30.39-34.04 ton.ha-1 of organic fertilizer rate will reached the optimum yield. The optimum rate of organic fertilizer + NPK fertilizer was not determined yet. But, by using of NPK fertilizer could increase the harvest.

Judul: Increased Rice Yield (Oryza sativa L.) with Application of Organic Fertilizer Enriched with Microbes
Abstrak: Produktivitas padi Indonesia beberapa tahun terakhir mengalami penurunan. Pemupukan yang sesuai dengan kondisi tanah dan kebutuhan tanaman mampu meningkatkan produksi tanaman. Aplikasi pupuk organik diperkaya dapat meningkatkan kesuburan tanah. Mikroba yang hidup di perakaran tanaman atau PGPR dalam pupuk dapat meningkatkan ketersediaan hara dalam tanah dan mensintesis hormon pertumbuhan tanaman melalui aktivitas biologisnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh aplikasi pupuk organik diperkaya terhadap peningkatan hasil padi sawah dan pengurangan dosis pupuk anorganik. Rancangan yang digunakan adalah rancangan kelompok lengkap teracak satu faktor yaitu dosis pupuk dengan 4 ulangan. Penelitian dilaksanakan di Kebun Pendidikan Sawah Baru IPB. Analisis tanah dan analisis kandungan pupuk dilaksanakan di Laboratorium Kimia dan Kesuburan Tanah, Departemen Ilmu Tanah dan Sumber Daya Lahan, Laboratorium Pengujian Departemen Agronomi dan Hortikultura, serta Laboratorium Tanah, Tanaman, Pupuk, Air, Balai Penelitian dan Pengembangan Pertanian. Pelaksanaan penelitian dimulai pada November 2020 hingga April 2021. Pengamatan dilakukan terhadap pertumbuhan, hasil, dan komponen hasil padi sawah. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan aplikasi pupuk organik diperkaya secara umum tidak meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan hasil per tanaman maupun hasil per hektar padi sawah. Aplikasi pupuk organik diperkaya dapat mengurangi 25% penggunaan pupuk anorganik dengan nilai efektivitas agronomi relatif sebesar 108,8%., Rice productivity in Indonesia has decreased in recent years. Fertilization that is suitable for soil conditions and plant needs can increase crop yield. The application of bioorganic fertilizer would be able to increase soil fertility. Microbes that live in plant roots could increase the availability of nutrients in the soil and synthesize plant growth hormones through their biological activities. The research aims to study the effect of the application of organic fertilizer enriched with microbes on increasing growth, yield, and yield components of lowland rice and the reduction of the dose of inorganic fertilizer. The experimental design used was a randomized complete group design with one factor, namely the dose of fertilizer with 4 replications. The research was carried out at the Sawah Baru Teaching Farm, IPB. Soil analysis and analysis of fertilizer content were carried out at the Laboratory of Chemistry and Soil Fertility, Department of Soil Science and Land Resources, Testing Laboratory of the Department of Agronomy and Horticulture, and the Laboratory of Soil, Plants, Fertilizer, Water, Agricultural Research and Development Center. The experiment was conducted from November 2020 until April 2021. The observations made were observations of vegetative and generative characters, as well as yields. Results shows, the application of enriched organic fertilizers did not increase growth and yield per plant or yield per hectare of lowland rice. Application of enriched organic fertilizers, however, could reduce 25% of inorganic fertilizers usage with a relative agronomic effectiveness value of 108.8%.

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.
