Judul: Assessing Rainfall and Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies Influences on the Number of Hotspots in Fakfak Regency, West Papua
Abstrak: Kabupaten Fakfak merupakan salah satu kabupaten di Provinsi Papua Barat yang termasuk kedalam wilayah yang memiliki tingkat kerawanan terjadinya kebakaran hutan dan lahan yang tinggi. Beberapa penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan keeratan hunungan antara curah hujan, anomali Sea Surface Temperature (SST) dan jumlah titik hotspot. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis hubungan antara curah hujan, anomali SST dan titik panas (hotspot) di Kabupaten Fakfak. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan November 2023 - Maret 2024 di Laboratorium Kebakaran Hutan, Departemen Silvikultur, Fakultas Kehutanan dan Lingkungan, Institut pertanian Bogor. Data yang digunakan adalah data curah hujan harian, data titik panas MODIS dan VIIRS dan data anomali SST 3.4. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa curah hujan berbanding terbalik dengan titik panas dengan korelasi -0,186. Anomali SST berbanding terbalik dengan curah hujan dengan nilai korelasi negatif sebesar -0,054. Sedangkan anomali SST berbanding lurus dengan titik panas dengan nilai korelasi positif sebesar 0,288. Anomali SST tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap curah hujan di Papua Barat sehingga dengan demikian anomali SST tidak terlalu berpengaruh terhadap kejadian kebakaran di Kabupaten Fakfak., Fakfak Regency is one of the regencies in West Papua Province that is prone to forest and land fires. Previous researches indicates a strong relation between precipitaton, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) Anomaly and number of hotspots. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between rainfall, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies, and hotspots in Fakfak Regency. This research was conducted from November 2023 to March 2024 in the Forest Fire Laboratory, Department of Silviculture, Faculty of Forestry and Environment, Bogor Agricultural University. The data used include daily rainfall data, MODIS and VIIRS hotspot data, and SST 3.4 anomaly data. The results show that precipitation is inversely related to hotspots with a correlation of -0.186. SST anomalies are inversely related to precipitation with a negative correlation of -0.054, while SST anomalies are directly related to hotspots with a positive correlation of 0.288. SST anomalies do not significantly affect precipitation in Fakfak Regency, and therefore, the SST anomalies do not influence the occurrences of fires in Fakfak Regency.

Judul: Hotspot and Rainfall Analysis Period in Mappi District, South Papua Province
Abstrak: Kabupaten Mappi merupakan salah satu wilayah di Provinsi Papua Selatan yang memiliki jumlah hotspot tertinggi setelah Merauke dalam satu dekade terakhir. Penelitian bertujuan menganalisis pola sebaran hotspot dan keterkaitannya dengan curah hujan pada periode 2012-2021 di Kabupaten Mappi, Provinsi Papua Selatan. Sumber yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah data hotspot dari citra satelit MODIS Terra/Aqua dan data curah hujan dari NASA LaRC Power yang dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif dan analisis regresi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya fluktuatif jumlah hotspot pada rentang tahun 2012-2021 dan puncak hotspot terjadi pada tahun 2015. Jumlah hotspot pada rentang tahun tersebut adalah 3879 titik. Sebanyak 1415 titik (36,48%) tersebar pada lahan gambut dan 2464 titik (63,52%) pada lahan mineral. Hasil analisis regresi menunjukkan bahwa hubungan antara hotspot dengan curah hujan memiliki nilai p-value 0,006, artinya p-value < 0,05 menunjukkan korelasi keduanya berpengaruh secara signifikan., Mappi Regency is one of the areas in South Papua Province which has the highest number of hotspots after Merauke in the last decade. The research aims to analyze the pattern of hotspot distribution and its relationship to rainfall in the 2012-2021 period in Mappi District, South Papua Province. The sources used in this study were hotspot data from the MODIS Terra/Aqua satellite imagery and rainfall data from NASA LaRC Power which were analyzed using descriptive analysis and regression analysis. The results showed that there was a fluctuation in the number of hotspots in the 2012-2021 range and the peak of hotspots occurred in 2015. The number of hotspots in that year range was 3879 points. A total of 1415 points (36,48%) are spread on peat land and 2464 points (63,52%) on mineral land. The results of the regression analysis show that the relationship between hotspots and rainfall has a p-value of 0,006, meaning that the p-value is < 0,05 which indicates that the correlation between the two has a significant effect.

Judul: Case Study of Gallbladder Mucocele and Treatment Used In Small Animals
Abstrak: Gallbladder mucocele (GM) is defined as distention of the gallbladder caused by an inappropriate accumulation or deposition of high concentrations of bile. The purpose of this case study is to study GM conditions in small animals and to report the clinical sign and characteristics of GM through the sonogram interpretation and blood chemistry test evaluation, and studies related to the therapy given and other treatments recommended. A 14-year-old Toy Poodle dog has been diagnosed with severe GM and cholecystitis. No pain signs were shown during the physical examination as asymptomatic is a common characteristic in the early stage of biliary related diseases. In this study Abdominal ultrasonography interpretation and blood chemistry evaluation was conducted in 2021-2022 and analyzed as a secondary data source. Ultrasonography results showed presence of hyperechoic, immobile deposits in gallbladder accompanied by wall thickening and enlarged in size, followed by a significant increase in the enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP). This study has summarized mainly the diagnosis and treatments of GM in small animals and suitable alternatives treatments were recommended to encounter the GM conditions in small animals. The effectiveness of combined therapy shows the positive impact on the patient, the condition of GM has been under control.
