Judul: Land use development strategies for the rehabilitation of Gadjahmungkur reservoir subwatershed
Abstrak: A land use planning study was conducted for Upper Solo, G4jahmungkur Reservoir subwatershed to determine the best land use alternative through simulation models to obtain least erosion _rate, well distributed streamflow, increased crops productivity and improved incomes of farmers. A PC-based ARC/INFO version 3.4 D-Plus was used in the analysis and processing of the data to generate spatial simulation models of the subwatershed land use. The Univer­sal Soil Loss Equation (OSLE) was used as the basic method for all computations. The ratios of maximum and minimum discharge and runoff coefficients from 1982 until 1993 were observed to have no trend. The stream discharge and sediment load before and after 1988 were somewhat erratic. The present erosion rates ranged from 1.01 to 3,343.40 mt/ha/year in the different land mapping units, the average being 159.47 mt/ha/year or about 15.95 mm/year, higher than the tolerable soil loss (TSL) of 30.03 mt/ha/year or about 3.0 mm/year. The critical erosion areas are settlements and home gardens, unpaved roads ditches and trails. Results of the simulation models indicate land use alternative 4 as the best option. Land use alternative 4

Judul: Land use planning based on soil conservation: case study at the subwatershed of upper ciasem in the subang district
Abstrak: Subwatershed of Upper Ciasem is one of the important subwatershed in the Subang District due to its strategic role for rice field irrigation. The objectives of this research were to (1) evaluate existing land use based on land capability classification, (2) predict soil erosion using USLE formula and (3) set sustainable land use planning. The materials and equipments that were applied are existing land use map, soil map, slope class map, GPS, GIS, Clinometer, and Compass. The land characteristics data of this research are rainfall, soil physical characteristics, degree and length of slope, and land cover that were collected from each representative land unit. The research shows that dominant land use in the upper Ciasem subwatershed are rice field (33.95%), estate plantation (21.29%), mix garden (14.25%) and forest (13.35%), it indicates priority of economic scale. Land capability classification of recent land use, especially in dry land, mix garden and shrub in 15%-40% of slope are classified in class III and IV with slope as the limitation factor. Based on criteria of land capability classification, those land uses are suitable with its land capability, however, since slope as the limitation factor, soil conservation measures must be applied, such as strip cropping, contour cropping, contour ridges and furrows, and terrace. Soil erosion prediction on existing cropping pattern and land cover shows that generally soil erosion (A) is higher than tolerable soil loss (Atol) due to mainly slope factor and erosivity index (R). Thus, there should be an improvement of land use management by applying cropping pattern and agrotechnology properly. Farmers income from actual cropping pattern is not adequate to fulfil basic living requirement which is Rp 8.000.000 per household per annum, due to quite small farm size land without applying agrotechnology. In order to increase the farmers income, it is needed to improve cropping pattern and agrotechnology, aside from off farm income. In Regional and Arrangement Spatial Planning (RTRW), economic aspect has been still being the main consideration in the land use planning. In the long term of land use utilization, it is better to convert dry land and shrub into forest or mix garden. The direction of regional planning of upper Ciasem subwatershed is better to be oriented in developing of tourism, especially agrotourism and ecotourism.

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.
