Judul: Studi pelaksanaan sepuluh langkah kerja petugas lapang keluarga berencana dalam kegiatan usaha perbaikan gizi keluarga (di Kotamadya Bogor, Propinsi Jawa Barat)
Abstrak: Kegiatan Usaha Perbaikan Gizi Keluarga (UPGK) melalui jalur BKKBN dikenal dengan sebutan Program Integrasi KB- UPGK. Melalui program ini, Petugas Lapang Keluarga Berencana (PLKB) mengemban tugas ganda, yaitu menjalankan program KB dan program UPGK. Untuk melakukan aktivitas menu- rut tugasnya, PLKB berpedoman pada Sepuluh Langkah Kerja dalam kegiatan UPGK agar mencapai hasil sesuai dengan tujuan yang hendak dicapai. Sehubungan dengan hal tersebut, maka tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah menelaah pelaksanaan Sepuluh Langkah Kerja PLKB dalam Kegiatan UPGK dikaitkan dengan hasil pencapaian program (N/S) antar kecamatan dan mempelajari hubungan faktor sosial PLKB dengan pelaksanaan Sepuluh Langkah Kerja.

Judul: Keragaan pelaksanaan program usaha perbaikan gizi keluarga subsektor pertanian tanaman pangan : studi kasus di delapan desa di wilayah Kecamatan Citeureup dan Cilengsi, Kabupaten Bogor, Propinsi Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keragaan pelaksanaan UPGK subsektor pertanian tanaman pangan (PTP). Aspek khusus yang dipelajari adalah peran PPL dalam pemeliharaan kelangsungan kegiatan pemanfaatan pekarangan (P2), pengembangan kegiatan P2, peningkatan partisipasi masyarakat dalam penimbangan anak balita (D/S), pelaporan, dan keragaan desa dalam kegiatan P2. Penelitian dilakukan di 4 desa lokasi proyek intensifikasi pekarangan Dinas PTP Kab. Bogor dan 4 desa bukan lokasi proyek, dipilih secara sengaja. Responden penelitian dipilih secara sengaja sebanyak 53 orang, meliputi 4 orang PPL yang bertanggung jawab terhadap pelaksanaan kegiatan P2 di 8 desa, 49 anggota masyarakat yang terdiri dari 6 orang KP-P (Kelompok Pelaksana kegiatan P2-Proyek), 10 orang KP-Np (Kelompok Pelaksana P2-Nonproyek), 12 orang pemuka kelompok tani (KT), orang PB-Nonaktif (Penerima Bibit bantuan proyek yang 21 Sudah tidak melaksanakan kegiatan P2 lagi). Responden dikelompokkan sesuai dengan kebutuhan analisis untuk tiap-tiap komponen tujuan.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
