Judul: Diversity of Soil Arthropod in the Rehabilitation Zone of Gunung Halimun Salak National Park
Abstrak: Arthropoda tanah merupakan salah satu faktor penentu dari kesuburan tanah dan kehadirannya memiliki peranan penting terhadap ekosistem. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Zona Rehabilitasi, Resort Gunung Kendeng, Kawasan Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun Salak (TNGHS). Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi keanekaragaman, menganalisis pengaruh kerapatan vegetasi dan menganalisis pengaruh kondisi lingkungan terhadap keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah di Zona Rehabilitasi TNGHS. Sampel Arthropoda tanah diambil pada petak pengamatan 50 m x 50 m sebanyak 14 petak pengamatan. Sub petak pengamatan ditempatkan sebanyak 9 kali ulangan secara acak pada tiap petak pengamatan. Pengambilan sampel tanah dan pengukuran faktor lingkungan dilakukan pada sub petak pengamatan berukuran 50 cm x 50 cm sebanyak tiga kali ulangan tiap petak pengamatan. Didapatkan 24 famili Arthropoda tanah yang berasal dari 13 ordo yang berbeda. Indeks keanekaragaman (H’) antara dua kerapatan vegetasi tidak berbeda nyata, pada kerapatan vegetasi tinggi didapatkan H’ 0,80 dan pada kerapatan sedang H’ 0,73. Hubungan keanekaragaman Arthropoda dengan faktor edafis seperti respirasi tanah yaitu berbanding terbalik, sedangkan pH tanah dan ketebalan serasah menunjukkan hubungan yang berbanding lurus. Hubungan faktor klimatis dengan keanekaragaman Arthropoda pada kerapatan vegetasi tinggi adalah berbanding lurus, sedangkan pada kerapatan vegetasi sedang menunjukkan hubungan yang berbanding terbalik., Soil arthropod is one of the determining factors of soil fertility and have an important role in the ecosystem. The research was conducted in the Rehabilitation Zone, Gunung Kendeng Resort, Gunung Halimun Salak National Park (GHSNP). The purpose of this study was to identify the diversity, analyze the effect of vegetation density, and analyze the effect of environmental conditions on soil arthropods in Rehabilitation Zone on GHSNP. Soil arthropod were collected from 50 m x 50 m with a total 14 observation plots. Sub- observation plots were placed 9 repetation in each plot. Soil sampling and environmental factor measurements were taken on 50 cm x 50 cm sub plot with 3 replications. There are 24 families of soil arthropods were obtained from 13 different orders. The index of diversity (H’) between two vegetation densities was not significant, with H’ values 0,80 for hight vegetation density and 0,73 for moderate vegetation density. The relationship between diversity of soil arthropod and edaphic factors such as soil respiration showed an negatively correlation, while pH and soil pH showed a positively correlation. The relationship between climatic factors at high vegetation density showed a linear relation, while at moderate vegetation density showed an inverse relation.

Judul: Diversity of Soil Arthropods in the Core Zone of Mount Halimun Salak National Park
Abstrak: Arthropoda tanah merupakan salah satu kelompok fauna yang hidup di tanah dan berperan dalam memengaruhi laju pembentukan tanah, dan siklus hara dalam ekosistem. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah yang didapatkan pada Zona Inti Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun Salak (TNGHS), dan menganalisis pengaruh antara dua kelas kerapatan vegetasi, faktor edafis maupun faktor klimatis terhadap keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah yang ditemukan pada kerapatan vegetasi di Zona Inti TNGHS. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengambilan sampel Arthropoda tanah menggunakan metode pitfall trap dan hand sorting. Data keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah dengan faktor lingkungan dianalisis menggunakan uji Korelasi Pearson dan uji Paired Sample t-Test. Hasil penelitian ditemukan 16 ordo dan 39 famili yang berbeda dan didominasi oleh famili Formicidae (Hymenoptera) pada kedua kelas kerapatan vegetasi. Indeks keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah (H’) pada kedua kelas kerapatan berjumlah 1,24 dan 1,44. Hasil uji t-Test menunjukkan tidak adanya perbedaan yang signifikan antara kedua kelas kerapatan vegetasi. Faktor edafis dan faktor klimatis memiliki hubungan korelasi baik ke arah positif maupun negatif dengan keanekaragaman Arthropoda tanah.

Judul: Hamiltonian formulation for linear waves motion in two layers fluid
Abstrak: The surface wave could be considered as a wave that separates two fluids, namely water and air. Based on this assumption, it is introduced the interfacial wave, a wave between two layers of fluid with different density. The formulation of interfacial waves motion begins with deriving the base equation of irrotational ideal fluid. Furthermore, according to irrotational fluid assumption, the base equation can be stated in velocity potential. In this derivation, the fluids domain is assumed to be restricted by rigid lid boundary conditions, both at the upper and lower limit. Therefore, the interfacial waves motion can be explained in a hamiltonian formulation. In the hamiltonian formulation, total energy is defined as the sum of kinetic and potential energy. The hamiltonian system is obtained from reduction of kinetic energy by using the Dirichlet Neumann Operator. The resulted kinetic energy equation is nonlinear. Therefore, this form is linearized by first part of the Taylor expansion. This linearization gives a dispersion relation of linear wave. Based on this dispersion relation, the phase speed of the linear wave depends on the density ratio of the two layers fluid.
