Judul: Faktor-faktor yang Memengaruhi Perubahan Skala Usaha Mikro Kecil (Studi Kasus: Nasabah PT. BPRS Bina Rahmah).
Abstrak: Usaha Mikro Kecil (UMK) memiliki peran penting dalam pembangunan ekonomi nasional. Permasalahan utama dalam pengembangan UMK adalah keterbatasan modal. BPRS merupakan bank pembiayaan syariah yang berperan dalam memenuhi kebutuhan modal dan mengembangkan usaha UMK. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi kinerja usaha sebelum dan sesudah memperoleh pembiayaan dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi perubahan skala usaha. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif, uji-t berpasangan, dan regresi logistik. Berdasarkan hasil uji-t berpasangan menunjukkan terdapat perubahan yang signifikan pada kinerja usaha sebelum dan sesudah memperoleh pembiayaan, yaitu terjadi peningkatan pada rata-rata omzet, aset, keuntungan, pengeluaran, dan jumlah tenaga kerja. Berdasarkan 60 responden, sebesar 21.67 persen mengalami peningkatan skala usaha dengan 92.3 persen adalah usaha yang naik kelas dari mikro ke kecil dan 7.7 persen adalah usaha yang naik kelas dari kecil ke menengah. Hasil analisis regresi logistik menunjukkan bahwa perubahan skala usaha dipengaruhi oleh variabel besar pembiayaan, lama usaha, dan jumlah tenaga kerja.

Judul: Faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi aset usaha pelaku usaha mikro kecil (Studi Kasus: Nasabah PT. BPRS Sukowati Sragen)
Abstrak: Usaha mikro dan kecil (UMKM) merupakan salah satu sektor yang sangat penting bagi perkembangan perekonomian negara khususnya Indonesia. Salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi pertumbuhan Skala Usaha UKM di Indonesia adalah permodalan. BPRS merupakan salah satu perbankan syariah yang berperan dalam mendukung perkembangan sektor Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi karakteristik nasabah pembiayaan PT. BPRS Sukowati Sragen dan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang memberikan pengaruh aset usaha pelaku nasabah pembiayaan PT BPRS Sukowati. Sampel pda penelitian ini sebnayak 83 responden.Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis deskriptif, uji-t berpasangan, dan regresi Linier Berganda. Berdasarkan hasil uji-t berpasangan menunjukkan variabel Modal awal usaha memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM. Variabel Besar pembiayaan memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM.variabel Lama Pendidikan memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM. Variabel Lama Usaha memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM.Variabel Jumlah Pekerja tidak memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM.Variabel Omzet memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM. Variabel Modal awal usaha Besar pembiayaan, Lama Pendidikan, Lama Usaha, Jumlah Pekerja, Omzet memiliki pengaruh secara simultan terhadap Aset Usaha pelaku UMKM, Micro and small enterprises (MSMEs) are a sector that is very important for the development of the country's economy, especially Indonesia. One of the factors influencing the growth of SME Business Scale in Indonesia is capital. BPRS is one of the sharia banks that plays a role in supporting the development of the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) sector. This study aims to identify the characteristics of the financing customers of PT. BPRS Sukowati Sragen and analyzes the factors that influence the business assets of the financing customers of PT BPRS Sukowati. The sample of this research is 83 respondents. The method used in this research is descriptive analysis, paired t-test, and multiple linear regression. Based on the results of the paired t-test, it shows that the initial capital variable has a significant effect on the business assets of MSME players. The size of the financing variable has a significant influence on the business assets of MSME actors. The length of education variable has a significant effect on the business assets of MSME actors. The length of business variable has a significant effect on the business assets of MSME actors. The variable number of workers does not have a significant effect on the business assets of MSME actors. The turnover variable has a significant influence on the business assets of MSME players. The variables of initial capital financing, length of education, length of business, number of workers, turnover have a simultaneous influence on the business assets of MSME actors.

Judul: Characteristic of Overshooting Top (OT) Based on  Himawari  8  Satellite  as  a  Convective  Cloud  Feature  that  Generates  Extreme Weather in the Java Island Region
Abstrak: Overshooting Top (OT) is a feature at the top of a convective cloud that is associated with extreme weather. Research on OT in tropical Indonesia is still very limited. The existence of geostationary satellites with wide area coverage and fast frequency observations is useful for observing the fast dynamics of the OT life cycle. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the relationship between OT and extreme weather, updraft and thermodynamic conditions of OT when extreme weather occurs, the best objective method for detecting OT in the day time and night time, and the spatiotemporal distribution of OT in the tropical region of Java Island during the 2018-2021 period. Based on visual analysis using visible channel and Himawari 8 sandwich products, 87% of extreme weather events in Java were accompanied by the appearance of OT. It indicates that the presence of the OT pattern is a convection cloud pattern or feature that is closely related to extreme weather events for the Java Island region. The existence of a time lag between the appearance of OT and extreme weather events on Java Island indicates that the OT of convection cloud can be used as a precursor or nowcasting for the appearance of extreme weather. Most of the convective cloud OT features during extreme weather events on Java Island have altitude that were only able to exceed the altitude of the equilibrium level and few were able to exceed the tropopause level of 9 km – 16 km. The difference in atmospheric conditions during extreme weather events on Java Island, which is in the tropics and subtropics, is a strong and unstable convective energy condition characterized by a larger CAPE, as well as unstable KI, LI, SI and TTI values. It is offset by kinematic factors in the form of a weak vertical wind shear (bulk wind shear 0-6 km) and a higher freezing point height. The difference between extreme weather events in the Java Island region and other tropical regions compared to subtropical regions is the strong updraft speed of convection clouds. The IRW Texture COMB algorithm based on the IRW-Texture Gradient modification and the COMB algorithm shows a significant increase in quality for detecting OT and non-OT pixels in Java. Rainy days with rainfall > 50 mm/day are very common in areas with an altitude of > 500 m. On the other hand, the level of convection activity which is indicated by the presence of OT and lightning is significantly reduced in this area. OT of convective clouds appear more frequently during the DJF season and less frequently during the JJA season. OT often appears during the day time and rarely at night time. Most OTs appear in the central part, away from the south and north coasts of Java Island during the day, while OTs that appear near the south and north coasts of Java Island can appear in the morning or afternoon.
