Abstrak: Tujuan penelitian adalah merumuskan cara pencegahan kebakaran hutan rawa gambut yang efektif agar dapat diimplementasikan di berbagai kondisi hutan rawa gambut dengan mencari variabel-variabel penentu terjadi kebakaran baik dari faktor biofisik maupun sosial ekonomi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa variabel biofisik yang berpengaruh terhadap kebakaran hutan rawa gambut adalah jarak sungai dengan nilai peluang kebakaran tertinggi atau Odd-ratio = Pll-P sebesar - 1,68200 pada jarak terdekat > 18 km dari S. Riding.

Abstrak: Uncontrolled land and forest fires have caused an enormous environmental losses in terms of economical, ecological and political aspects. The main objective of this study is to formulate and evaluate the method of economic valuation of environmental damage caused by land and forest fires. The study was conducted in the National Park of Bukit Baka (230 ha), Natural Recreation Park of Baning (59.5 ha), Industrial Forest Plantation of Finantara Intiga (15 ha), Industrial Forest Plantation of Inhutani III (12,452 ha), TCSDP Plantation of Nanga Pinoh (76 ha) and community plantation (91.20 ha) with the sample of 42 ha and 250 respondents. The data analysis used were the approach of market price, productivity, shadow price, replacement cost, income losses, health costs, transfer benefit, contingent valuation method, canonical correlation, structural equation model and system analyses. The study showed that land and forest fires give different impacts. Therefore, the choice of methods should be in accordance with criteria and stages of valuation. The total economical losses caused by fires in 1997 was 53.91 billion rupiahs which was 175 million rupiahs in the sample area or of 4.17 million rupiahs/ha in the average. It was an increasing of 69.64% in the year of 2003. The biggest loss occurred in the forest area with conservation and natural preservation functions. On the other hand, in terms of the benefit, the biggest loss was in the direct benefit. It is because not all indirect benefit was valuated in this study. The declining of people’s health was the biggest loss in terms of haze from land and forest fires. However, those fire impact did not disturbed the cooperation with other countries but only the transaction costs. Both of the natural and human factor influence of land and forest fire simultaneously with ã = -0.192 and ã = -0.462. Rainfall, temperature, humidity, the using of fire, attention and involving of the community toward fire and mitigation effort showed the most significant effect on forest fire (á = 0.05) with 73% of model validity level. Therefore, the alternatives of policy to prevent land and forest fires are the implementation of optimistic scenario by preventing the using of fire, the improvement of fire mitigation efforts, ratification of AATHP and strengthening the cooperation with other countries in controlling land and forest fires.

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.
