Judul: Volume, Biomassa, Cadangan Karbon dan Serapan CO2 Pada Areal Rehabilitasi Tanabe Foundation di Hutan Pendidikan Gunung Walat
Abstrak: Calculation of biomass is one of the important steps that must be done in climate change mitigation in the forestry sector to estimate carbon stocks. This study aims to estimate the potential volume, biomass, carbon stocks, and CO2 uptake in the area of rehabilitation Tanabe in GWEF using the method without stratification and with stratification by the type of dominant vegetation. Data collection was done by making the sample plots in the field using simple random sampling and stratified random sampling. Stratification done after ground checking and determined by 5 dominant stratum in block Tanabe such as stratum aghatis, manglid, pine, puspa, and mahogany. GWEF potential estimation results without stratification providing more accurate results as compared with stratification by vegetation. Potential volume at GWEF Tanabe without stratification has a total presumption value 2384.97 m3. The biomass potential has a total presumption value 1958,53 tons. Carbon stock potensial has a total presumption value 920,51 tons. CO2 uptake has a total presumption value 3378,28 tons.

Judul: Pendugaan Potensi Volume, Biomassa, dan Cadangan Karbon Tegakan di Hutan Pendidikan Gunung Walat Sukabumi Jawa Barat
Abstrak: The current global warming is caused by the increasing of greenhouse gases emitted to the Earth’s atmosphere. Greenhouse gases that affect directly is CO2 (carbon dioxide). If there are too many concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, it will cause warmer temperature. Increasing the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere over the years led to climate change. The effort to solve climate change is conducting mitigation. One of the sectors that play a role in climate change mitigation is forestry sector. Forest able to absorb the excess carbon in the atmosphere and store it in the form of biomass in various parts of the plant (particularly timber) through the photosynthesis process. One of Indonesia's forests which has the potential carbon stocks is Gunung Walat University Forest (GWUF). This research aims to estimate the potential of volume, biomass, and carbon stocks in the forest which can be use as a basis for making the forest planning, management, and protection. Field data collected at the stands of Agathis lorantifolia (agathis), Pinus merkusii (pine), Schima wallichii (puspa), Maesopsis eminii (kayu afrika), and the others stand with the circle sample plot sized 0.1 ha. The stands volume estimated by using volume table equation and the biomass estimation by allometric models. Carbon stocks estimation obtained from biomass value that is converted to the carbon fraction (0.47). Data analysis in this research uses two methods, estimation without stratification through systematic sampling with random start and estimation with stratification through stratified sampling. Estimation with stratification is performed in two ways, stratification based on potential value and stratification based on the vegetation type. The result of potential estimation with stratification in GWUF more accurate then the method of estimation without stratification. The average volume of estimation with stratification based on its potential value is 399.45 m3/ha and the total volume is 142,832.56 m3; the average and total of biomass potential are 202.37 tons/ha and 72,363.70 tons; and then the of average of carbon stocks is 95.12 tons/ha and the total carbon stocks is 34,085.51 tons. While the estimation results with stratification based on the vegetation type shows the average and total volume are 398.29 m3/ha and 142,416.26 m3; the average of biomass potential is 202.82 tons/ha and the total of biomass potential is 72,522.35 tons; with average of carbon stocks is 95.32 tons/ha and the total carbon stocks is 34,085.51 tons.

Judul: Warna bulu kucing ras Persia : variasi pola warna dan pewarisannya
Abstrak: Kucing Persia merupakan kucing ras yang paling umum dijumpai di Indonesia. Kucing Persia memiliki bulu yang panjang dengan variasi warna bulu yang sangat beragam. Perkawinan yang lebih terarah sangat perlu dilakukan untuk meningkatkan kualitas genetik warna dan pola warna bulu kucing. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari variasi warna dan pola warna bulu kucing Persia yang terdapat di Indonesia, yang dilakukan di kantor pusat Cat Fancy Indonesia mulai bulan Oktober 2000 sampai Januari 2001. Data yang digunakan merupakan data pedigree kucing Persia yang tercatat di Cat Fancy Indonesia dari tahun 1997 sampai Oktober 2001 yang terdiri dari 187 jantan dan 258 betina, selain itu juga dilakukan pengamatan langsung kepada tiga penyayang dan breeder kucing yang ada di Bandung. Secara umum tercatat 104 penyayang dan breeder kucing ras di Indonesia, 74,04% terdapat di Jawa Barat dan sisanya (25%) terdapat di daerah Jakarta. Jumlah kucing Persia yang lahir di Indonesia adalah 387 kucing (87,16%), yang terdiri dari 163 (42,12%) jantan dan 224 (57,88%) betina. Jumlah kucing Persia yang diimpor ke Indonesia adalah sebanyak 57 (12,845%) yang terdiri dari 23 (40,35%) jantan dan 34 (59,65%) betina. Jumlah kucing Persia yang terdapat di Jawa Barat (84,14%) lebih banyak dibanding jumlah kucing Persia yang ada di Jakarta (14,86%). Secara umum warna bulu cream (9,01%) dan pola warna solid (34,01%) memiliki persentase tertinggi. Warna cream merupakan warna dilusi dari warna merah (red) yang dapat dihasilkan dari berbagai macam kombinasi warna bulu yang dimiliki tetua sebelumnya, sebagai contoh dari perkawinan tetua yang memiliki warna bulu cream dengan red smoke. Perkawinan antara tetua yang memiliki warna dan pola warna bulu yang tidak murni dapat menghasilkan turunan yang memiliki warna dan pola warna bulu yang bervariasi.
