Judul: Analisis Faktor-faktor yang Memengaruhi Keputusan Masyarakat Muslim Kota Cilegon dalam Memilih Bank Syariah.
Abstrak: Terdapat ketidakadilan pada sistem kerja sama antara nasabah dan pihak perbankan dalam menjalankan produk-produk perbankan yang disebabkan adanya sistem bunga yang diterapkan oleh perbankan konvensional. Perbankan syariah merupakan bank yang menggunakan sistem bagi hasil sebagai salah satu cara untuk mengatasi ketidakadilan yang terjadi pada sistem kerja sama antara nasabah dengan perbankan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan persepsi masyarakat Muslim Kota Cilegon terhadap bank syariah dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi keputusan masyarakat Muslim Kota Cilegon dalam memilih bank syariah. Metode analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif dan analisis regresi logistik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persepsi masyarakat Muslim Kota Cilegon terhadap bank syariah sudah cukup baik dengan nilai rata-rata yang dimiliki tiap indikator adalah lebih dari 2.5. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi keputusan masyarakat Muslim Kota Cilegon dalam memilih bank syariah adalah religiositas, pengetahuan mengenai bank syariah, fasilitas, dan lokasi.

Judul: Analisis Faktor-faktor yang Memengaruhi Masyarakat Muslim Kota Bogor dalam Memilih Menabung di Bank Syariah
Abstrak: Perkembangan bank syariah di Indonesia sudah semakin baik, namun persentase jumlah nasabah bank syariah terhadap jumlah populasi muslim di Indonesia hanya sebesar 17,3 persen. Hal ini menunjukan bahwa masih sedikitnya masyarakat yang memilih untuk menabung di bank syariah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan persepsi masyarakat muslim Kota Bogor terhadap bank syariah dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi keputusan masyarakat muslim Kota Bogor dalam memilih menabung di bank syariah dengan mengambil responden sebanyak 80 responden. Metode pengumpulan data dengan penyebaran kuesioner secara online melalui google form, sedangkan metode analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif dan analisis regresi logistik. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan, pendapatan dan layanan digital berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap keputusan memilih menabung di bank syariah., The development of Islamic banks in Indonesia is getting better, however the percentage of Islamic bank customers against the number of muslim populations in Indonesia is only 17,3 percent. This shows that there are still few people who choose to save in Islamic banks. This study aims to describe the perception of the Muslim community of Bogor City towards Islamic banks and analyze the factors that influence the saving decision of muslim community in Bogor City in Islamic banks with 80 respondents. The method of data collection is by distributing online questionnaires via google form, while the analytical methods used are descriptive analysis and logistic regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that knowledge, income and digital service had a positive and significant effect on saving decisions in Islamic banks.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
