Abstrak: ROMS-AGRIF INDO03 model configuration with medium-resolution 1/3° has been developed to examine general circulation of Indonesian Sea from 95 °E – 14 °E and 20 °S – 20 °N. Wind driven and atmospheric flux obtained from climatological data COAD (2005), and climatological data of seawater properties obtained from the World Ocean Database (2006), meanwhile lateral boundary driving force was used from the simulation results Drakkar INDOORCA05 climatology (1970-2003). This study aim to examine annual current circulation of Indonesian sea. The 10th year simulation results with a daily average value were used in this study. A correlation betwen sea surface level of the model and sea surface level from altimetri climatology satelit (2000-2010) run from the model showed a fairly high value (0.5-0.9). The mean flow surface current in the Indonesia sea is more influenced by the monsoon winds. In the Indian Ocean flow Java Coastal Current and South Equatorial current. In the North of Papua mean flow of surface current flowing to westward which is part of the New Guinea Coastal Current. Seasonal current from modeling results indicate the direction of flow in the West Season from West to East, opposite the East season from East to West. Vertical structure current in the Java Sea and Strait Karimata flowing from surface to sea floor is relatively homogeneous, in relatively shallow waters that are still affected by seasonal current until the sea floor. Vertical structure current in the Makassar Strait, Banda Sea, and Indian Ocean there is a difference in the surface layer and thermocline layer, because it waters so that the seasonal current happend only on the surface and Arlindo that happend in the thermocline layer. Seasonal variation seen in the difference in surface temperature and salinity on the West and East season.

Judul: Variabilitas Arus di Sekitar Selat Sunda Tahun 2007-2010 dari Hasil Model INDESO
Abstrak: Model output of high-resolution (1/12°) ocean general circulation model from INDESO project between 2007-2012 were used to investigate the structure and variability of currents at two locations around the Sunda Srait, one location is in Java Sea (JS) and the other is in Indian Ocean (IO) side. Model sea surface height (SSH) is validated with altimetry data, which shows a high correlation coefficient of 0.90 in the IO and 0.76 in JS. In general, both model and altimetry data indicate that SSH in JS is always higher that found in IO. However, between November-January each year, there exists a reversal flow northward in Sunda Strait, which may be related to arrival of coastally trapped Kelvin waves. An intensification of current appears near surface layer both in JS and IO. Analysis of power spectral density energy exhibits a wide range of current variability from intra-seasonal, semi-annual and annual time-scales. Power density energy of zonal current component is much stronger that that meridional component, and amplitude of energy is much stronger in IO it show that current in IO is stronger than JS. Cross correlation analysis show that there is strong relation between between JS and IO currents fluctuation which showed by coherence value between two areas of 0,99.

Judul: Telaah Histopatologi Urolithiasis Pada Kucing
Abstrak: Urolithiasis adalah suatu keadaan dimana ditemukannya batu di dalam saluran urinaria. Batu tersebut dibentuk dalam pelvis ginjal dan bergerak turun sepanjang ureter kemudian masuk ke dalam vesika urinaria dan uretra. Penulisan ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari lebih dalam secara histopatologi tentang kasus kematian seekor kucing dengan urolithiasis yang dinekropsi di Laboratorium Patologi FKH-IPB. Pemeriksaan patologi anatomi menemukan adanya fokal atelektasis paru, dilatasi ventrikel kiri jantung, hidrothoraks, hidroasites, ginjal pueat dan batu-batu berbagai ukuran dengan diameter 0,1-0,5 em pada vesika urinaria yang berdarah. Pada pengamatan histopatologi menunjukkan pembendungan semua organ, nephritis interstitialis kronis disertai bentukan mikrokista dan endapan mineral pada lumen tubuli dan sistitis nekrotik disertai pendarahan yang meluas. Pemeriksaan pada organ paru-paru ditemukan lumen alveolus sebagian mengempis dan sebagian lagi meluas. Dinding alveol menebal akibat adanya akumulasi eritrosit. Sedikit koloni bakteri tampak dalam lumen usus, bercampur dengan epitel usus yang terlepas di ujung viii. Hati mengalami pembendungan, ruangan sinusoid tampak meluas. Beberapa megakariosit tampak di dalam pulpa merah yang menunjukkan adanya aktivitas hematopoetis. Organ jantung tidak menunjukkan adanya perubahan histopatologi yang spesifik.
