Abstrak: The diversity of the logged over area natural forest stand structure, requires yield regulation used approach specifically, that takes into account the characteristics of its standing. Information about the characteristics of stand structure and structural dynamics of natural forest is needed in the logged-over forest stand structure suspect future for forest management planning. The purpose of this study is to obtain the dynamic model of the alleged stand structure which is then used as the basis for setting felled. Length of time required to reach the structure stands ready to harvest in the next rotation depends on felling intensity applied, the higher the intensity of felling the longer term applied to the time required to reach the structure stands ready for harvest in the next rotation. Decrease in diameter limit cut from 50 cm up to 40 cm above can shorten the cutting cycle. In addition, it can also increase the harvested volume.

Judul: Stand structure dynamic for forest yield regulation based on number of trees : case on a logged over area of a low and dry-land of tropical rain natural forest in Kalimantan
Abstrak: Differences in logging intensity, forest encroachment, and fires, caused the variability of natural forests condition, including their horizontal and vertical stand structures. Information on the variability of stand structure and dynamic of secondary forests is essential for projecting the future stand structure, which can be used to develop a forest management plan. The study, which used 101 permanent sample plots data established on a low and dry-land natural forest in Kalimantan, showed that there was an obvious variability of the stands condition after logging in terms of the number of trees ha-1 and horizontal stand structure. The variability of stand condition, time after logging, and environmental factors could result in variability of the components of stand structure dynamics (e.g., proportion of trees upgrowth and staying). This study aimed to develop models for estimating the dynamics of stand structure of logged-over natural forests, which used 75 permanent sample plots data of lowland and dryland of natural forests in Kalimantan. The proportions of trees upgrowth, staying (ai), and recruitment (bi) were obtained from 3-years growth data. Trees were classified into several 5-cm diameter classes and two species groups: dipterocarp and non-dipterocarp. This study tried to predict ai and bi by four methods. It showed that the proportion of trees upgrowth and staying of each species group could not be predicted satisfactory by three regression methods using the number of trees, stand basal area or time after logging and elevation that were used as independent variables in multiple linear regression models. The regression models produced overestimate and unrealistic projections of stand structures. In contrast, the projection of stand structures using the dynamics of stand structure’s components that were calculated using arithmetic mean was better performance than that of the three regression models. The simulation of stand structures also confirmed that the methods for calculating trees recruitment significantly affected the projected stand structures. The simulation of stand structure dynamics by using data from three sample plots showed that the different initial condition of stand (i.e. combination of trees number and stand structure) at the same harvesting intensity produced different cutting cycle as well. It was concluded that yield regulation of secondary forest should be determined specific to stand characteristics.

Judul: Infeksi Virus Parainfluenza Pada Anjing
Abstrak: Virus parainfluenza anjing termasuk famili Paramyxoviridae, berbentuk pleomorf dengan ukuran bervariasi (bergaris tengah antara 100-500 nm), berpembungkus peka ether, berisi genom RNA dan secara serologis mempunyai kesamaan dengan virus SV-5 kera; dikenak sebagai salah satu kausa penting dari sindrom "kennel cough". Infeksinya dapat mengenai anjing semua umur yang belum pernah terinfeksi atau mendapatkan vaksinasi mengakibatkan gejala klinis ringan yang terbatas pada traktus respirasi atu infeksi yang secara klinis tidak memperlihatkan gejala nyata. Gejala klinis yang nampak setelah masa inkubasi (1-5 hari) terlewati berupa batuk yang tidak berat selama beberapa hari, berbagai tingkat tonsilitis dan pharyngitis dan kadang-kadang ditemukan kenaikan temperatur rektal antara 1-2 derajat C dari temperatur normal rat-rata. Anjing terinfeksi mengandung virus pada traktus respirasi bagian atas dan bawah serta limfonoduli sampai hari ke 9 setelah infeksi. Penyebaran virus antar anjing terjadi secara aerogen.
