Judul: Mangrove ecosystem management based mitigation . (case of small Islands Bunaken National Park)
Abstrak: Mangrove ecosystem has many functions for coastal areas, among other functions of ecological, social and economic. This function is a systemic impact on the environment other coastal ecosystems and human life. Through the mitigation of these functions can be optimized to minimize the degradation of small island environments. This study analyzed the condition of existing mangrove ecosystem, the vulnerability of small islands, and mangrove ecosystem management strategies based mitigation. This study uses primary and secondary data. Primary data gathering done by sampling, field observation, quistioner, and open-ended interviews and in-depth interviews in the research area. Secondary data gathering by unravel various literature, and related institution. Vulnerability index was analyzed using multi dimensional scaling method where as vulnerability mapping carried out by analysis of geographic information system using the software Arcview 3.3. For patterns and management strategies used stakeholder analysis through a technique SMART (Simple multi-attribute rating technique) using the software Criterium decision plus (Criplus Version 3.0 S). Results obtained from this research is the mangrove ecosystem of small islands in Taman Nasional Bunaken need to get attention in the management considering the rate of degradation and threats to these ecosystems is increasing. Nain Island is the island most vulnerable to the threat of damage to ecosystems by humans activity or natural factors. Management scheme that can accommodate a variety of problems faced by the mangrove ecosystem of small islands is Colaboratif management by the government as the leading sector with the highest priority on the management of the ecological dimension.

Abstrak: Conversion of mangrove area into aquaculture land is one of the biggest causes of degradation of mangrove areas. Conversion of mangrove area and the area of ponds which not used again resulted in increasing numbers of mangrove area were damaged and open. In general, reduction of mangrove forests as a result of land conversion have an impact are quite complex, such: the coastline erosion, high tide, flooding due to rain, declining water quality, and in the end lead to a decrease in overall environmental quality. Therefore, environmental management and conservation of mangrove forest ecosystems it is very necessary to make improvement of environmental quality in mangrove areas. Based on those reasons, this study aims to: 1) identify the vulnerability of degradation of mangrove areas in the Village of Muara, Tangerang; 2) identify environmental factors (supporting and inhibiting) that effect on the rehabilitation of mangrove areas in the Village of Muara and formulate the strategy of rehabilitation. The study was conducted in the village of Muara, subdistrict of Teluknaga, district of Tangerang, Province of Banten. The data used in this study consisted of primary data and secondary data. The primary data obtained through sampling, field surveys and interviews. Secondary data were obtained by collecting data and information required from various related institutions. Analyzer which used in this study consisted of: analysis of vegetation, analysis of the vulnerability of mangrove degradation, descriptive analysis of environmental factors, and A'WOT analysis (combined AHP and SWOT) to formulate rehabilitation strategies of mangrove. The results showed that the mangrove areas Muara experienced a high level of vulnerability of degradation based on mangrove vegetation characteristics. Mangrove vegetation in Muara has a level of low density, levels of low species diversity and levels of high dominance. There are six mangrove species which was found in mangrove areas Muara, that is Avicennia alba, Avicennia officinnalis. Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora stylosa, Rhizophora mucronata, and Nypa fruticans. Mangrove species with the highest INP present in Rhizophora mucronata. Rehabilitation process of mangrove by revegetation methods are needed, wherein, species of mangrove that are used in revegetation process are local species which the seeds can be found in the mangrove areas of Muara. Physical environmental conditions of mangrove areas in Muara are generally still suitable for of mangrove growth. Rural communities in Muara showed a positive perception and attitude towards mangrove rehabilitation activities that conducted in their village. Based on analysis of the relationship between the factors that conducted in the A'WOT analysis, there are three (3) alternative strategies that be a priority to succeed the mangrove rehabilitation program in mangrove areas of Muara, namely: 1) Promoting Muara as one of the educational tourist attractions for mangrove; 2) Involvement and empowerment of communities in each of the process of rehabilitation and conservation of mangrove; 3) Making the Village of Muara as a supplier of mangrove seedlings for mangrove rehabilitation and conservation in coastal areas of Jakarta

Judul: Studi Kasus Liver Neoplasia pada Anjing Shih Tzu
Abstrak: Liver neoplasia is the excessive and uncontrolled replication of hepatocytes that forms nodules visible in ultrasonography. The purpose of this study is to study and discuss the characteristic, diagnosis and treatment of liver neoplasm through the interpretation of ultrasonography and hematology in a Shih Tzu dog. Ultrasonography is conducted with a Chison Q8 ultrasound machine with a 5 to 7 MHz frequency convex probe on lateral recumbency. The blood cells, liver enzymes and nodules sizes were the main parameters in this study. The results in the period of three years from 2021 to 2023 were interpreted and supported with secondary data sources. The Shih Tzu dog is 14 years old in the year 2023 with a body weight of 5.21kg. No obvious clinical signs were observed during previous examinations. However, lethargy, vomiting and anorexia were recorded in its latest examination. Thrombocytosis, granulocytosis, high liver enzymes and hypoglycemia, which are some of the neoplastic clinical manifestations were also presented by this patient. Besides, liver neoplasm, spleen neoplasm and biliary sludge were the sonogram findings of this patient. The liver and spleen neoplasm was observed stable, while the biliary sludge volume fluctuated. The treatment strategy recorded is Ondansetron, Samylin®, Ornipural and Ursodeoxycholic acid.
