Judul: Kajian Kesesuaian Taman Hutan Raya Di Kecamatan Tondon Dan Kecamatan Nanggala, Kabupaten Tana Toraja
Abstrak: Kabupaten Tana Toraja merupakan salah satu daerah strategis dan penting di Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan. Namun kawasan hutannya seluas 156.906 ha (48,94%) saat ini mengalami banyak masalah, diantaranya penyerobotan lahan untuk perluasan areal pertanian maupun perkebunan, penebangan liar serta tumpang tindih pelaksanan program pemerintah dalam kawasan hutan. Salah satunya dalam Kawasan Hutan Lindung Nanggala (KHLN) sebagai bagian dari sub DAS Saddang hulu dengan potensi sumberdaya alamnya yang beragam.. Kondisi dan potensi tersebut di atas mengisyaratkan pentingnya pengelolaan KHLN yang lebih bijaksana untuk menjamin kelestarian sumber daya alam dan meningkatkan manfaatnya bagi kesejahteraan masyarakat tanpa mengubah fungsi pokok kawasan. Saat ini upaya konkrit yang ingin diwujudkan pemerintah daerah adalah pembangunan Taman Hutan Raya (TAHURA) yang dimaksudkan untuk memperluas fungsi kawasan tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji indeks kesesuaian terhadap aspek ekologi/biofisik, sosial-ekonomi dan budaya dalam upaya pengubahan status KHLN menjadi kawasan konservasi dengan kategori TAHURA tanpa mengubah fungsi pokok kawasan dan mengkaji blok pengelolaannya.

Judul: Analisis Strategi Kebijakan Pengelolaan Taman Hutan Raya Berbasis Ekososiosistem (Studi Kasus Tahura Wan Abdul Rachman Di Propinsi Lampung)
Abstrak: The objective of this research is to determine the characteristics of the problems in WAR Grand Forest Park, to determine a comprehensive management based on ecology, economy and socioculture and to develop a zonation suitability map in relation to sustainable management of WAR Grand Forest Park. The method used are descriptive, qualitative and quantitative. Analysis of the characteristic of the problem of WAR Grand Forest Park was analyzed by using tabulation and descriptive methodes. Policy strategic analysis for WAR Grand Forest Park management was analyzed using PHA method and SWOT. GIS was used as direction to determine the optional zonation for WAR Grand Forest Park based on strategic policy analysis. The result showed that degradation of WAR Grand Forest Park is caused by: 1) land resources availability (Open access), 2) indiscipline staff in WAR Grand Forest Park, 3) lack of law enforcement, 4) social economic and welfare motivation. PHA analysis showed that the main strategy for management of Tahura WAR is ecotourism (value: 0.402 or 40.2%) followed by ecotourism-agro forestry (value 0.386 or 38.6%), and Agro forestry (value 0.212 or 21.2%). Operational strategies that must be carryout by government are: (1) reducing illegal logging, (2) Policy regulation, (3) law enforcement for indiscipline staffs, (4) removal of regulation that contrast to the local government regulation such as Perda No. 7/2000 on retribution, (5) produce zonation suitability map for ecotourism purpose, (6) develop collaboration management of ecotourism in WAR grand forest park with the communities around Tahura WAR. Spasial analysis showed that region allocated for ecotourism purpose in WAR grand forest park has a topography of 600 mdpl and countur less than 40%.

Judul: Estimation of Additive and Non-Additive Genetic Variances of Body Weight, Egg Weight and Egg Production for Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) with an Animal Model Analysis
Abstrak: This study estimates the additive and non-additive variances for egg production and body weight traits of two lines of quails from a long-term selection with the help of the REML method. For the body weight of 42-day-old females (BW42f) and males (BW42m), a total of 7,934 records for line 1 and 7,214 records for line 2 from 21 generations were used in our analyses. Additionally, 1,717 records of females from line 1 and 1,671 records of females from line 2 contained information on their egg production at an age of 42 to 200 days (EN200), on the average egg weight for the first 11 weeks of their laying season (EW1), on the average egg weight from weeks 12 to 23 (EW2), and on their body weight at an age of 200 days (BW200f). A multivariate additive animal model and one-trait dominance models, which include the inbreeding coefficients as covariates, were fitted to the data. The estimates of the heritability gained from our dominance models were smaller than those from the additive model. For line 1, the heritability values decreased for EN200 from 0.35 to 0.32, for EW1 from 0.66 to 0.56, for BW200f from 0.42 to 0.38, and for BW200m from 0.51 to 0.49, respectively. For the first line, the respective ratio (d2) of the dominance variance to the phenotypic variance for EN200, EW1, BW200f and BW200m was 0.08, 0.22, 0.09 and 0.21, and the values for the second line were 0.12, 0.06, 0.001 and 0.23.
