Judul: Penilaian Tingkat Pelapukan, Kesuburan Alarni, dan Klasifikasi Tanah pada Profil - profil yang Berkembang dari Bahan Piroklastik dan Lahar Letusan Gunung Galunggung, Tasikmalaya.
Abstrak: Gunung Galunggung memiliki ketinggian 2.168 m di atas permukaan laut. Gunung ini telah meletus beberapa kali, dan terakhir meletus pada tahun 1983- 1984. Basil letusan Gunung Galunggung berupa bahan piroklastik dan lahar. Bahan piroklastik merupakan bahan dari berbagai ukuran yang dimuntahkan pada saat erupsi vulkanik yang kuat, terdiri dari gelas kristal, pecahan kristal, dan batuan, sedangkan lahar adalah aliran lumpur vulkanik yang terdiri dari bahan piroklastik dan air yang mengalir dari gunung berapi.

Judul: Sifat-sifat kimia dan mineralogi tanah yang berkembang dari bahan piroklastik dan lahar hasil letusan gunung galunggung pada tahun 1982 - 1983
Abstrak: Galunggung Mountain is one of active volcano in Priangan area, with a height of 2168 meters above sealevel. This mountain is located in Indihiang Subdistrict, Tasikmalaya District, West Java. Mt. Galunggung has erupted for several times, 1822 and the last times in 1982-1983. The last eruption about 20 years ago would strongly affecting soil development, therefore this research is aimed to know chemical soil properties over the area of lahar deposition from Mt. Galunggung eruption in 1982-1983. Based on topografic and geologic maps sampling locations was selected in: Pasir Bentang (Profile I), Gedongnyungcung (Profile 11) and Warujajar (Profile 111) in Indihiang Subdistric, Tasikmalaya District.

Judul: Biology and ecology of the buffalo fly, haematobia exigua de meijere (diptera:muscidae)
Abstrak: The life history of the buffalo fly was observed at room temperature of 27°-29.5°C and at a relative humidity of 48-68 percent. The eggs hatched after 17-22 hours, with an average of 18 hours. First instar larvae measured 1.25 + 0.16 mm long and 0.27 + 0.037 mm wide. reach the second larval stage. It took 6-12 hours to the second instar larvae measured 2.676 +0.187 mm long and 0.353 +0.028 mm wide. The second instar took about 12-24 hours to reach the third larval stage. The third instar measured 6.833 + 0.189 mm long and 0.919 + 0.051 mm wide. It took about 2-3 days for the third instar to become pupae. Duration of the pupal stage was about 5-7 days before the adults emerged. Under laboratory condition, the buffalo fly completed its life cycle in 9.5 to 10.5 days, whereas under field condition it took 9-14 days with an average of 10.5 days. The growth ratio which was based on the measurements of the cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton of each instar was 1.797. The preoviposition period was 8-12 days and mating usually occurred on the 6th or 7th day. The longevity of the male was 29 days, whereas it was 32 days in the female. The range of egg production under laboratory condition was between 20-139 per female fly. The belly and hind legs of the carabao were the most preferred habitat either during cloudy and cool dry or shiny and warm day. When the weather was clear and the carabao was in the shade, the flies tended to be more distributed particularly on the shoulder, dewlap, back and horns. The carabaos had relatively fewer Musca sp. and Stomoxys calcitrans than cattle; never the less carabaos had a higher infestation of buffalo fly than cattle. Oviposition occured either during the day or night but the buffalo flies were more active during the night than in the day time. The effect of various lengths of exposure time of manure in relation to the oviposition was profound. observed, the maximum number of the buffalo flies was occurred when the dung was exposed for 30 minutes. With increasing time of exposure the number and variety of insects also increase. It was evident that Sepsidae and psychodidae were the most dominant insects emerging from the dung. The number of buffalo flies also increased with increasing
