Abstrak: Bamboo shootsis a part plant that useful as nutraceuticals or commonly called as functional foods, and also beneficial for health. The purpose of this research is to identify the best type of bamboo shoots and review stimulus benefits of bamboo shootand identified bamboo conservation actions by the community Kampung Pasir Peundeuy. This research was done at Organoleptic Test Laboratory IPB, Center for Agro Industry (BBIA), and Kampung Pasir Peundeuy Bogor from June-August 2013. The data was collected by Organoleptic test and cyanide test to determine the type of bamboo shoots superior, field observation and interviewing by snowball method. Based on the research, the bamboo shoots of bamboo gombong the best type with color parameters of 5.49, 4.71 for scent, 5.60 for texture and 4.20 for flavor. Bamboo gombong has the lowest levels of cyanide at 53 mg/kg. The usefulness type of bamboo shoot which is done by village public are 80% for food and 20% for medicine. Conservation of bamboo is still less, because 30 % of respondents who ever did the cultivation of bamboo.

Abstrak: Bamboo is one of plant taxa comprising various species with high economic potential. Bamboo is a member of Bambusoideae of the Poaceae family. There are 1250 bamboo species in the world, 135 of them are in Indonesia. Not all bamboo species are well known, and only some of them can be found in Java Island. Land use changes reduce bamboo natural habitats in Indonesia. One of the bamboo forests in East Java is found at a conservation area namely Mount Baung Natural Park. The information of bamboo diversity, population structure and the relationship between bamboo and its biotic and abiotic factors in Mount Baung Natural Park is not well known. The aims of the research were to study the ecology of bamboo, the relationship between bamboo growth and its biotic and abiotic factors, and the bio-prospection aspect of this taxon in Mount Baung Natural Park, Pasuruan, East Java. This research was carried out at four different locations from September 2011 to Mei 2012. Those locations were Preserved Area, Rehabilitation Area, Limited Usage Area, and Intensive Usage Area. Data collection was conducted by analyzing the bamboo populations using sampled plots along the transects that were determined by stratified random samplings within four purposive sampled areas. The collected botanical data consisted of the bamboo scientific names, the number of clumps per plot and the diameter of clumps. The environmental data consisted of altitude, solar radiation, temperature-humidity, and soil pH. Soil samples were analyzed at the Soil Chemical Laboratory, Center for Research of Land Resources, Bogor. The abundances and densities of bamboo expressed an importance value index, namely the resultant of the sum of Relative Density, Relative Frequency, and Relative Dominance. The determination of habitat characteristics (i.e. determining the most related factors in relation to the presence of bamboo in their community) were analyzed by statistical correlations using the software STATISTICA Minitab 14. The principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis were performed to determine relationships between abiotic/biotic components and bamboo’s occurrences. Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) was used to determine component relationships. Cluster analysis was used to analyze the similarity of the environmental conditions of the bamboo habitat. Index Cultural Significance (ICS) was performed to determine the bamboo bio-prospecting of bamboo. There were seven species of bamboo in Mount Baung Natural Park, Pasuruan, namely Bambusa blumeana, Bambusa vulgaris, Dendrocalamus asper, Schizostachyum iraten, Gigantochloa apus, Gigantochloa atter and Dinochloa matmat. D. matmat was not described detail in this These due to the very limited number ( < 1%) of individual occurence. Among the six bamboo species, B. blumeana possessed nearly ideal population structure. Bambusa blumeana had the highest important value index 127,97%. The structure of bamboo population was classified based on the clump diameter classes which were: A (< 5 m), B (5-10 m) and C (> 10 m). Based on this category, the bamboo in Mount Baung Natural Park belonged to A phase class. Based on the soil analysis, the location had good soil characteristics and was feasible for bamboo growth, namely silty clay loam, medium CEC (Cation Exchange Capacity) ranging from 10,90 to 18,52

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.
