Judul: Biodiversity and Potency of Red Algae (Rhodophyta) in Coastal Area of West Java.
Abstrak: Red algal biodiversity was studied based on morphology, anatomy, reproductive structures, and ecology. The study was conducted by surveying and collecting the red algae in five coastal area of West Java: Ujung Genteng, Pangandaran, Pelabuhan Ratu. Anyer, and Carita. Morphology, anatomy, and reproductive structures of thc spccimen were observed. Agar and carTagecnan were analyzed on seven species. A total of 49 species of24 genera and 12 fm':1ilies of red algae was found in coastal area of West Ja"a. Genera with the highest number of species are Graci/aria and Laurencia. Ujl~ng Genteng was the coastal arca with the highest species richness, while Pangandaran was the lowest. Reproductive structures were various. The cystocarps are spherical, dome or cup form and produced on the surface of the thallus, in the medula, or on the branchlet. While the tetrasporangia are formed in conceptacles, on stichidia, or in the cortex with cleavage patterns. zonate, cruciate, and tetrahedral. Red algae in West Java occupied a variety of habitats and substrates. Most of the species attached to the rocky substrates in the surf zone. The highest yields of carrageenan was obtained on Graci/aria sa/icornia and Gracilaria corol1opi!olia, while the highest yields of agar was extracted from Graci/aria spinoslLIll.

Judul: Analisis Metagenomik Mikroalga Prokariot dari Perairan Laut Jawa Timur
Abstrak: Mikroalga adalah kumpulan mikroorganisme uniseluler yang dapat berfotosintesis dan menjadi alternatif bioenergi yang potensial untuk dikembangkan. Sebelumnya, penelitian mengenai boidiversitas mikroalga di laut Jawa Timur telah dilakukan secara morfologis. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis metagenomik mikroalga prokariot di perairan laut Jawa Timur. Sampel dari penelitian sebelumnya, yang berasal dari Madura (M3, M4, M6, M9), Banyuwangi (BW) dan Situbondo (ST), dikulturkan kemudian disekuensing dengan metode NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) menggunakan primer 16S rRNA. Data sekuens dianalisis menggunakan Geneious Prime 2020.1.2 dengan mengacu pada database 16S microbial dari NCBI. Terdapat 6 ordo dan 17 spesies teridentifikasi dari divisi Cyanobacteria. Ordo Oscillatoriales terdapat pada seluruh sampel dengan rata-rata frekuensi 43,25%. Crocosphaera watsonii dan Laspinema etoshii terdapat pada kelima sampel kecuali M6. Situbondo memiliki spesies paling banyak yaitu 16 spesies sedangkan M6 hanya memiliki satu spesies. Indeks keanekaragaman tergolong rendah hingga sedang, sedangkan indeks dominansi tergolong rendah hingga tinggi., Microalgae are mixture of unicellular photoautotroph organisms and have big potential to be developed as an alternative bioenergy. Previous research has been carried out on the diversity of microalgae from East Java Coastal Area using morphological identification. This study aims to analyze the prokaryotic microalgae diversity using metagenomics approach. Seawater samples from previous studies, which came from Madura (M3, M4, M6, and M9), Banyuwangi (BW) and Situbondo (ST), were cultured and then sequenced by NGS applying 16S rRNA primers. Analysis was carried using the Geneious Prime 2020.1.2 program referring to the 16S microbial database from NCBI. There are 6 orders and 17 species classified from the Cyanobacteria division. The Oscillatoriales order is found in all samples with an average frequency of 43,25%. Crocosphaera watsonii and Laspinema etoshii were found in five samples, except M6. Situbondo had the most species, namely 16 species, while the M6 sample only had 1 species. Diversity index is classified as low to moderate, while the dominance index is classified as low to high.

Judul: Konstruksi sangkar cuaca mini untuk sensor suhu elektronik
Abstrak: Pengukuran suhu udara sering dipakai sebagai dasar pengukuran unsur-unsur cuaca. Dalam pengukuran sufiu udara, ada beberapa ha1 yang perlu dihiidari yaitu pengaruh radiasi surya secara langsung maupun pantufannya oleh benda-benda yang ada di sekelilingnya, gangguan dari tetesan air hujan, tiupan angin yang terlalu kencang, dan pengaruh radiasi bumi akibat pemanasan dan pendinginan permukaan tanah setempat, karena ha1 tersebut mempengaruhi akurasi pengukwan. Untuk mengatasi rnasalah tersebut maka sensor suhu harus diletakkan di dalam suatu pelindung yang disebut sangkar cuaca.
