Judul: Evaluasi Kerusakan Pohon Jalur Hijau Jalan Yang Disebabkan oleh Tanaman Strangler (Pencekik) di Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Pohon jalur hijau jalan di sejumlah tempat di Kota Bogor ditumbuhi oleh tanaman pencekik. Tanaman pencekik dapat menjadi penyebab tumbangnya pohon jalur hijau dan membahayakan keselamatan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melakukan analisis vegetasi tanaman pencekik di Kota Bogor, mengevaluasi kerusakan yang disebabkan oleh tanaman pencekik, dan menyusun rekomendasi pemeliharaan pohon yang terkena tanaman pencekik. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode survei di Jalan Jend. Ahmad Yani, Jalan Ir. H. Juanda, Jalan Pemuda, Jalan Dr. Semeru, dan Jalan Jend. Sudirman. Data yang dikumpulkan mencakup spesies dan jumlah tanaman pencekik beserta pohon inangnya; diameter pohon; tinggi inang dan tanaman pencekik; kelebatan akar dan tajuk pencekik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa spesies pencekik yang ditemukan di Kota Bogor, antara lain, adalah Ficus benjamina, Ficus glauca, Ficus elastica, dan Schefflera actinophylla. Spesies yang paling banyak ditemukan adalah F. benjamina dengan indeks nilai penting sebesar 185,9. Di antara kelima lokasi penelitian, jalur hijau yang mengalami kerusakan paling tinggi adalah Jalan Pemuda dengan jumlah pohon yang rusak sebesar 37,9% dari total pohon rusak di seluruh lokasi penelitian. Pemeliharaan pada pohon jalur hijau yang tercekik berbeda bergantung pada tingkat kerusakan yang dialaminya.

Judul: Evaluasi Kerusakan Fisik Pohon dalam Upaya Mitigasi Pohon Tumbang pada Jalur Hijau Jalan di Jakarta Pusat
Abstrak: The presence of trees at the roadside greenbelt has the greatest influence among other vegetation types in improving the environmental quality. Therefore, the physical condition of tree became things to note because can result of a broken tree branches or twigs or fall of a tree which can lead to traffic accidents that would endanger the safety of road users. This study aims to analyze trees phsycal force to find the resistance of a broken tree branches or twigs or fall of a tree. In this case, the roads have been surveyed including H. Agus Salim Street, Teuku Umar Street, Diponegoro Street, Imam Bonjol Street, Sutan Syahrir Street, dan Moh. Yamin Street in Central Jakarta. The collected data are species and number of tree, type of damaged, place of damaged, condition of damaged, and incident of fallen tree in location. The data were analyzed with plant physiognomy approach. There are 1.646 trees were observed in six roadside greenbelt and 1.413 of them were damaged. Based on value of index tree damage classification 650 including healthly trees, 847 low damaged trees, 167 medium damaged trees, and 12 high damaged trees. Handling of each trees adjusted base on type and severity of damaged based on eradication and protection principles.

Judul: Synthesis of Biphasic Calcium Phosphate Made of Eggshells Through A Hydrothermal Method
Abstrak: Biphasic Calcium Phosphate mixed of hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate. A hydrothermal method of synthesizing by mixing CaO as calcium source and (NH4)2HPO4 as phosphate source with distilled water. CaO got from calcination process made of eggshells. All samples were synthesized using hydrothermal reactor then followed by sintering process. The molar ratio of Ca and P for all samples was 0.5 M : 0.3 M. Hydrothermal temperature and sintering temperature were variated they are 250 ºC, 300 ºC for hydrothermal and 800 ºC, 900 ºC, 1000 ºC for sintering, higher treatment temperature, tricalcium phosphate appears. Final results of synthesis were characterized by using X-ray Diffraction and Fourier Transform Infrared. X-ray Diffraction patterns was ecompared with database Join Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards and found tricalcium phosphate and hydoxyapatite.
