Judul: Perencanaan Lanskap Kampung Wisata Jamburea, Kecamatan Banyuresmi, Kabupaten Garut
Abstrak: Kabupaten Garut kaya akan sumber daya alam dan budaya yang memiliki potensi daya tarik wisata. Kampung Jamburea merupakan destinasi wisata potensial di Garut dengan karakteristik alam dan budaya yang khas. Kawasan Jamburea sebagian besar merupakan lahan basah yang dipengaruhi oleh danau musiman yaitu Situ Rancakukuk dimana warga menggunakan lahan tepi danau untuk persawahan pada musim kemarau, dan kolam ikan pada musim hujan. Kampung ini terkenal dengan kuliner tradisionalnya terutama Tempe Jamburea. Selain itu pencak silat, permainan tradisional, barber shop ‘Asgar’, dan kerajinan bambu sebagai budaya tak benda masih dapat ditemukan di Jamburea. Tujuan utama dari penelitian ini adalah merencanakan lanskap Jamburea sebagai kampung wisata. Analisis spasial yang menggabungkan aspek fisik-biofisik, non-fisik dan wisata menghasilkan 41,47% area kampung sesuai untuk dikembangkan sebagai area wisata, 44,30% cukup sesuai, sedangkan 14,23% harus dilindungi. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, kampung dibagi menjadi zona wisata alam zona wisata budaya, zona pendukung wisata, dan zona penyangga. Rencana lanskap dikembangkan berdasarkan konsep wisata edukasi dan rekreasi dengan daya tarik utama berupa kekayaan alam dan budaya Jamburea., Garut Regency is rich in natural and cultural resources that have the potential for tourist attraction. Kampung Jamburea is a potential tourist destination in Garut with distinct natural and cultural characteristics. Jamburea is predominantly wetland influenced by a seasonal lake namely Situ Rancakukuk where residents use the lake periphery for rice field during the dry season, and fish pond during the rainy season. The kampong is well-known for its traditional culinary, mainly Tempe Jamburea, in addition to other contemporary snacks and cakes. Pencak silat, traditional game, ‘Asgar’ barber shop, and bamboo handicraft as intangible culture still can be found in Jamburea. The main objective of this research is to plan the landscape of Jamburea as a tourist village. The spatial analysis combining physical-biophysical, non-physical and tourism aspects results that 41,47% of the kampong has suitable to be developed for tourism, 44,30% is moderately suitable, whereas 14,23% has to be conserved. Based on the analysis result, the kampong is divided into natural tourism zones, cultural tourism zones, tourism supporting zones, and buffer zones. The landscape plan is developed based on a concept of educational and recreational tourism with Jamburea’s nature and culture as the main attraction.

Judul: Mercury Toxicity and It’s Effect on Histopathology Change of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).
Abstrak: Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is one of fish species that oportunity to contaminated with mercury. The effects of pollutants can damage living organisms organs and can cause death. The effects caused mercury had acute or chronic character. The aims of this study are to determine threshold and acute toxicity of mercury chloride (HgCl2) of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), to assess the effect of mercury chloride (HgCl2) on several biometric parameters (survival, growth rate of average daily weighted, liver condition, bile and reproductive variability of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), assess the level of damage to the histological structure of the gills, liver and kidney of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) caused mercury chloride (HgCl2) exposure. This study was conducted from February to June 2013. Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were used in this study were female with average weight 20 grams or 11-13 cm length range. Toxicant materials used in this study was mercury chloride (HgCl2). Fish were reared in each aquarium 60x40x30 containing 48 liters of water. This study consists of three stages: a preliminary test, acute test, and sub-chronic test. To determine the changes in biometric condition of tilapia approximated by measuring the survival rate (SR), the growth rate of average daily weight , the content of mercury in the fish organs, hepatosomatic index (HSI), the relative bile volume (VER), gonadal soamtic index (IKG), fecundity and oocit diameter, tissue damage caused by mercury in fish organs by making histological preparations stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The median lethal concentration (96 hr, LC50) of Mercury Chloride was calculated as 1,64 mgL--1.The survival rate was highest in the control treatment (46,67 %) . Mercury chloride with concentration 0.196 mgL--1 show significant effect to changes HSI and relative bile volume, and oocyte diameter of Nile tilapia (p < 0,05). Mercury chloride with a concentration of 0,164 mgL-1 and 0,196 mgL-1 have not a significant effect on the growth rate of weight, gonadal somatic index and fecundity of Nile tilapia (p > 0,05). Mercury chloride cause damage to gills (hyperplasia, hypertrophy, proliferation and neukrosis), liver (hyperplasia, hemorhage, shrinkage of hepatocytes, proliferation and neukrosis) and kidney (hyperplasia, hemorrhage, shrinkage of the glomerulus, proliferation and neukrosis).
