Judul: Estimation of Urban Forest Area Required In Bekasi City.
Abstrak: This paper describes the estimation of urban forest area required in Bekasi ~ using three approaches, i.e., C02 absorption ability, 02 demand and surface stcrr.age capability. The rapid population and economical growth in Jakarta had III ca~se the increase of the spatial need required for office, business center, mall, "C in&tstrial, residential and public areas. This trend had limited the existence of green 3 oJ%1 space. The problems related to population and economical growth are also '" oc~rred in Bekasi City, since Bekasi City is becoming the counter magnet to the plivince of DKI Jakarta. The necessity of urban forest area in Bekasi City continues to..ti..~l row every year along with the increasing needs of water and oxygen demand ali; carbon dioxide produced. The study shows that the most appropriate approach ::I. fo~. estimating the urban forest need is surface storage capability. The study found III that subdistrict which requires the largest urban forest area is West Bekasi OJ sugdistrict. The study also shows that estimation of thF needs of urban forest area .., from 2009 to 2025 are substantially wider than the extent of Bekasi City area. For the current condition, the required urban forest from 2009 to 2025 approximately 48,15 - 111,06 percent of the extent of Bekasi City area.

Judul: Analisis cadangan karbon pohon pada lanskap hutan kota di DKI Jakarta
Abstrak: In order to reduce enviromental problem, such as air polutions and increasing of air temperature in DKI Jakarta caused the presence of urban forest is very neccessary. Tree has an inportant role becouse its function as store carbon and most efficient carbon sinks in urban areas. Urban forest in DKI Jakarta has problems in development, beside technical aspects are also affected by the goverment policy. The objectives of research were (1) to analyze tree carbon stock, CO2 sequestration and tree species that have potential of carbon, and (2) to analyze policies that support the development of urban forest. The study was conducted at DKI Jakarta, which was focused on tree urban forests, i.e. University Indonesia (Jakarta Selatan), Srengseng (Jakarta Barat) and PT JIEP (Jakarta Timur). The research location was determined by using purposive sampling method, which is based on the representation of the main functions of the urban forest landscape services. Data was collected through survey method. The selection of respondents was conducted by purposive sampling. Sampling plots determination was done by purposive sampling method. Square plot with a size of 20 m x 20 m is used in this research. Determination of tree biomass is done by non-destructive sampling method and tree carbon stocks by using biomass content formula. CO2 uptake values was determined by using the comparative of relative molecular mass CO2 : 3.67 x carbon stocks. Wood density obtained from the database of wood density of trees world agroforestry. Carbon stock analysis was calculated by using allometric equation and urban policy analysis was executed by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach. The largest tree carbon stocks were found on UI urban forest was 178.82 ton/ha, Srengseng was 24.04 ton/ha and PT JIEP was 23.64 ton/ha. The largest CO2 uptake generated from UI urban forest was 634.40 ton/ha, Srengseng was 88.15 ton/ha and PT JIEP was 86.76 ton/ha. Factors that affecting the enhancement of carbon stocks, i.e. stem diameter, tree density and the age of the trees. CO2 uptake value resulting from the biggest urban forest UI was 634.40 ton/ha, followed by Srengseng 88.15 ton/ha and PT JIEP 86.76 ton/ha. This information illustrates that in addition for conservation of biodiversity, water uptake and aesthetics landscape, urban forest also has the potential in reducing CO2. Tree of fabaceae family, i.e. Acacia crassicarpa A.Cunn.Ex.Benth, Acacia mangium Willd, Paraserianthes falcataria L, Leucaena leucocephala L, Bauhinia purpurea L, Delonix regia Boj Ex.Hook, Pterocarpus indicus Willd, Erythrina crista-galli L and Abrus precarorius are found that they have biggest contribution for tree carbon stocks in study sites. Policy priorities the supporting the development of urban forest in level factor are increasing of urban forests quality, level actor are government and level alternative are rules evaluation and urban forest expantion.

Judul: Mud Crab’s (Scylla serrata Forskal 1775) Response to Different Decaying Level of Gold Snail (Pomacea canaliculata Lamarck 1822) Bait.
Abstrak: Mud crab is well known as omnivorous-vigorous-voracious-opportunistic-scavenger. These intertidal animals applies mainly chemoreception in their predatory behaviour. It has been commonly assumed that non fresh gold snail bait is better than fresh bait in stimulating the mud crab. This research's aim is to analyze mud crab response to different decaying level of gold snail bait. Their response were observed as time required to touch the bait and pattern and direction of the mud crab in approaching the baits. The different decaying level of gold snail baits were shown on Total Volatile Base Nitrogen (TVBN) as 16.3 mg/100g (0 day); 534.1 mg/100g (3 days); and 887.4 mg/100g (6 days). The research was conducted from July 2009 until February 2011. The TVBN test for gold snail baits were conducted at Laboratory of BBPPHP Jakarta. The experiment was conducted in Pemalang. The result showed that the average period of mud crabs to touch the baits were 52.14 minutes; 61.57 minutes and 52.57 minutes. Anova test concluded no sufficient evidence of significant effect of TVBN content of gold snail bait on mud crab’s feeding behaviour. Movement pattern B, i.e. left and right deviation followed by straight forward movement to the bait, was commonly exhibited by the crabs. Consequences of time period required by the mud crab to approach the bait on fishing operation is discussed.
