Judul: Kelembagaan Lokal : Bentuk Adaptasi Sosio-Ekologi Daerah Rawan Longsor (Kasus Kampung Sirnagalih, Desa Sukaraksa, Kabupaten Bogor, Provinsi Jawa Barat).
Abstrak: Landslides have damaged the cultivated land, settlements, and other infrastructures. Such damages have led the people to make adaptation as a survival strategy. The objective of this study are to describe and analyze: (1) the reality of landslides, (2) the people perceptions of both environment and their ability as well as self-confidence (3) the shapes of socio-ecological adaptation landslide-prone, and (4) the local institutions of landslides areas. The location of this study in Sirnagalih Kampong, Sukaraksa Village, Bogor Regency, West Java. The study used a combination of two techniques of data collection: a quantitative technique to measure perception, and a qualitative technique to explore the reality of landslides, the forms of socio-ecological adaptation and the local institutions of landslide communities. The result of this study reveals that the reality of landslides-prones have changed the people perceptions about environment, and pushed the shapes of socio-ecological adaptation. Further, the shape of adaptation is followed by the norms to manage and use the natural resources. Besides, the shapes of adaptation affect the availability of local institutions in landslide-prones communities.

Judul: Estimasi Nilai Kerugian Ekonomi dan Upaya Mitigasi Terhadap Bencana Longsor (Studi Kasus : Desa Cibunian, Kabupaten Bogor)
Abstrak: Landslides often caused casualties and material losses. Landslides continued to occur every year in Cibunian village, especially during the rainy season. This studied aims to provided information related to factors causing landslides, landslide risk assessment, estimation of economic losses due to landslides and recommendations for landslide mitigation and adaptation strategies. The methods used include disaster risk calculation, actual market price approached, costed of illness, loss of income, and qualitative descriptive analysis. The results showed that the factors causing landslides in Cibunian village were high rainfall and lack of greenery. The analysis of disaster risk leveled shows that one rw fell into the high risk category, while the other rw fell into the medium risk category. The estimated valued of economic losses due to landslides reached rp 5,012,702,332, including community losses of rp 133,202,332 and losses borne by the government of rp 4,879,500,000. Recommendations for mitigation strategies that could been applied include reducing the birth rate, implementing building codes, and increasing community capacity.

Judul: Penambahan α-Tocopherol sebagai Antioksidan dalam Pengencer Tris Kuning Telur Spermatozoa Kucing pada Suhu 4 ⁰C
Abstrak: Stres oksidatif pada sperma terjadi selama pengolahan semen dan berdampak pada kerusakan sperma. Antioksidan α-Tocopherol merupakan salah satu antioksidan yang termasuk ke dalam kelompok antioksigen. Antioksidan ini dapat mengurangi aksi radikal bebas dan menurunkan stress oksidatif pada sperma. Penelitian ini bertujuan menguji efektivitas penambahan α-tocopherol pada pengencer tris-kuning telur terhadap kualitas semen cair yang berasal dari kauda epididimis kucing. Kauda epipidimis kucing didapatkan dengan metode kastrasi. Kauda epididimis kemudian dipisah dan dicacah untuk mendapatkan spermatozoa kucing. Semen dengan motilitas >70% diencerkan pada kelompok pengencer tris kuning telur (TKT), tris kuning telur dengan α-tocopherol 0.1% (TKT+T-0.1%), tris kuning telur dengan α-tocopherol 0.2% (TKT+T-0.2%), dan tris kuning telur dengan α-tocopherol 0.3% (TKT+T-0.3%). Semen cair disimpan selama 4 hari (H0-H4) pada suhu 4 °C, kemudian dilakukan evaluasi kualitasnya (motilitas, viabilitas, abnormalitas dan membran plasma utuh sperma) setiap 24 jam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kualitas semen cair tidak berbeda signifikan pada H0 (P>0.05), tetapi penambahan α-tocopherol secara umum meningkatkan kualitas semen pada H4 pascapreservasi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, kelompok pengencer TKT+T-0.1% adalah perlakuan terbaik.
