Judul: Efisiensi Operasional Pemberian Pakan pada Budidaya Penggemukan Kepiting Bakau Scylla serrata dalam Sistem Apartemen RAS
Abstrak: Kepiting bakau (Scylla serrata) merupakan komoditas akuakultur yang memiliki nilai ekonomis tinggi di pasar internasional. Operasional pemberian pakan pada budidaya kepiting bakau sistem RAS tidak efisien. Efisiensi dalam operasional pemberian pakan pada budidaya kepiting bakau perlu ditingkatkan agar dapat memberikan penghematan waktu tenaga kerja dan mengurangi biaya operasional pemberian pakan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis efisiensi operasional pemberian pakan satu, dua, dan tiga kali sehari dengan mengukur kinerja produksi dan analisis usaha pada budidaya kepiting bakau Scylla serrata pada sistem apartemen RAS. Rancangan Acak Lengkap digunakan dalam penelitian ini, terdiri dari tiga perlakuan frekuensi pemberian pakan, yaitu satu, dua, dan tiga kali sehari dengan masing-masing tiga ulangan. Pemberian pakan satu, dua, dan tiga kali sehari tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap tingkat kelangsungan hidup, pertumbuhan bobot mutlak, pertumbuhan panjang dan lebar karapas, waktu dan jumlah molting, persentase molting, jumlah konsumsi pakan, rasio konversi pakan, dan efisiensi pemanfaatan pakan. Pemberian pakan dua kali sehari menghasilkan efisiensi tenaga kerja sebesar 1,08% dan memperoleh keuntungan paling besar yaitu Rp5.342.008.

Judul: Implikasi Intensitas Cahaya terhadap Kualitas Air dan Kinerja Produksi Kepiting Bakau (Scylla serrata) pada Sistem Apartemen RAS
Abstrak: Kepiting bakau (Scylla serrata) merupakan salah satu komoditas perikanan yang memiliki nilai ekonomis dan mengandung gizi yang tinggi bagi kesehatan dan pertumbuhan. Menurut KKP (2023) hasil tangkapan kepiting bakau mengalami peningkatan dari 43.643 ton tahun 2021 menjadi 56.591 ton pada tahun 2022. Jumlah produksi berdasarkan hasil budidaya juga mengalami peningkatan dari 12.823 ton tahun 2021 menjadi 14.214 ton tahun 2022. Salah satu alternatif yang dapat dipilih untuk budidaya kepiting bakau yaitu dengan sistem apartemen atau yang biasa dikenal dengan vertical crab house dengan sistem resirkulasi. Tujuan untuk menganalisis kinerja produksi yang didukung dengan hasil kualitas air lingkungan dan pertumbuhan yang terbaik. Tingkat kelangsungan hidup tertinggi yaitu 80,00 ± 10,00 pada perlakuan 30 lux dan persentase moulting tertinggi yaitu 16,67 ± 11,55 pada perlakuan kontrol (10 lux). Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa sebagai hewan nokturnal, kepiting tetap membutuhkan sedikit cahaya yang diserap dalam wadah pemeliharaan untuk menjaga dirinya setelah melakukan moulting., Mud crab (Scylla serrata) is a fishery commodity that has economic value and contains high nutrition for health and growth.According to the KKP (2023), the catch of mud crabs increased from 43.643 tons in 2021 to 56.591 tons in 2022. The production based on cultivation also increased from 12.823 tons in 2021 to 14.214 tons in 2022. One alternative that can be chosen for cultivating mud crabs is the apartment system or what is commonly known as vertical crab house with recirculation system. The aim is to analyze production performance supported by the best environmental water quality and growth results. The highest survival rate was 80.00 ± 10.00 in 30 lux treatment and the highest moulting percentage was 16.67 ± 11.55 in the control (10 lux) treatment. This shows that as nocturnal animals, crabs still need a little light absorbed in the rearing container to maintain themselves after moulting.

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.
