Judul: Small Island Resources Use for Sustainability Tourism (Case Study Sepanjang Island, Sumenep Regency, East Java Province)
Abstrak: The needs of coastal and marine tourism, especially in small island continues to rise. But tourism have risk unsustainable if not planned properly and not based on carrying capacity (CC). The aims of this study are to identify degree of use and coastal resources management, estimated suitability and opportunity for sustainable tourism, and measure ecological CC and sustainable tourism management on Sepanjang Island. This study uses a hybrid analysis method that include Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), tourism suitability index, Recreation Opportunities Spectrum (ROS) and Touristic Ecological Footprint (TEF). The results of this study indicate that the degree of resources use of Sepanjang Island is still low and management on resources not yet optimal, although Sepanjang Island has been set as Marine Protected Area (MPA) since 2010. Sepanjang Island has suitability resources for tourism of beach 26.35 km, mangrove 3,319.75 ha, seagrass 85.06 ha, snorkeling 134.95 ha and diving 107.36 ha. Sepanjang Island is divided into 6 classes of ROS are urban 557.1260 ha (0.92%), Rural 3,086.6240 ha (19%), Frontcountry 4,104.0390 ha (6.75%), Backcountry 26,018.7110 ha (42.80%), Remote 26,997.9960 ha (44.41%) and Wilderness 33.7920 ha (0.06%). Whereas TEF values Sepanjang Island is 0.162504 ha with CC is 159,743 capita.

Judul: The Small Island Management Of Marine Ecotourism Development (Case Study in Liukang Loe Island, Bulukumba Region, South Sulawesi).
Abstrak: Small islands have very high ecosystem diversity characterized by mangrove, seagrass, beach and coral reef also organisms who live around the small island area. The potential can be used to support marine tourism development. To that end, the utilization of small island for marine tourism development is important to promote the ecological dimension in order the sustainable utilization. This research examines the ecological carrying capacity with space approach and water quality in the marine tourism area Liukang Loe Island to accommodate tourist activities. The purpose of this research is assessing the maximum number of tourists who can be accommodated without causing disturbance against the coastal resources. The research was conducted in the Liukang Loe Island in August 2012 and February-Maret 2013. Biophysical data collected through field survey and secondary data element comes from existing research. Data analysis method consists of sustaibility analysis and carrying capacity of marine tourism with spatial approach by using GIS. Based on the results of research and interpretation of satellite imagery, obtained 3 (three) marine tourism activities in the Liukang loe island is beach tourism of recreation category, snorkeling and diving. DDK space approach obtained that Coastal tourism / recreation categories according to the total length area that utilized around 1 441 m can accommodate 56 people/day, snorkeling tourism around 24.57 ha can accommodate 986 people / day and Diving tourism around 14.73 ha is able to accommodate 589 people / day. Thus the total tourist can be accommodated to the overall tourist activity around 1 631 people / day. While DDK with BOD parameters water quality approach obtained the utilization for 10 years later is still under the threshold standard that required for marine tourism. The implication of this result can be given in government policy and other relevant parties with implementation of sustainable tourism principle

Judul: Leukemia pada kucing
Abstrak: Leukemia pada kucing adalah suatu penyakit yang sangat patogen, disebabkan oleh sejenis virus. Virus ini dikenal sebagai Feline Leukemia Virus atau FeLV. FeLV ini oleh beberapa ahli dikatakan hanya bersifat ganas pada hewan kucing. Penularannya bisa secara horizontal maupun congenital. Kucing pada semua tingkat umur dapat terserang oleh FeLV ini. Khusus pada bentuk "thymic leukemia", virus ini hanya menyerang anak-anak kucing berumur diba- wah 1 tahun. Kucing-kucing liar atau yang tidak terpeli- hara jarang sekali terinfeksi FeLV. Selain dari serangan virus FeLV itu sendiri, maka penyakit leukemia ini bisa disebabkan oleh beberapa fak- tor yang sudah ada dalam tubuh hewan dan sangat menunjang perkembangan penyakit ini, yaitu antara lain tumor, agen toksik, cedera oleh kecelakaan dan gangguan hemopoiesis. FeLV menyerang sel-sel darah dalam tubuh hewan se- hingga pembentukan darah berjalan tidak normal. Terlihat sel-sel darah yang belum dewasa sudah beredar dalam sir- kulasi darah. Bentuk dan jumlahnya tidak lagi seimbang dalam tubuh hewan kucing tersebut. Gejala klinis antara lain kekurusan, ikterus, anemia, lemah, anoreksia, dyspnoe, sulit menelan, batuk, dan membran mukosa pucat. Selain itu kelenjar pertahanan tubuh juga membengkak, kemudian terjadi hepatomegali, spleenomegali dan pembengkakan pada ginjal. Terbentuk massa tumor pada beberapa tempat. Secara biopsy pada sumsum tulang akan terlihat be- berapa perubahan. Sumsum tulang berwarna merah tua atau abu-abu. Konsistensinya lunak dan terdapat banyak sekali memproduksi sel darah putih. Melalui gambaran darah leukemia ini lebih mudah didiagnosa. Jumlah retikulosit rendah sekali. PCV 8-15%, hemoglobin menurun, sel darah putih (WBC) meningkat, lim- fosit meningkat, Alfaglobulin juga ada peningkatan, dan banyak eosinofil yang belum dewasa beredar dalam darah…dst
