The Macroeconomic Determinants of The Housing Prices in Turkey
Authors: AKKAY Reşat Can
Published: April 2021

In this study, we examine the relationship between housing prices and its macroeconomic determinants in the Turkish economy over the period 2010-2020. The ARDL bounds testing to cointegration and Granger Causality test procedures are employed in the empirical part of the study. The empirical results show that there is a significant negative relationship between housing interest rates and housing prices. Besides, it was observed that the appreciation of the US dollar against the Turkish Lira and the increase in the employment level had an increasing effect on housing prices. As a result of our research, we conclude that country-specific facts affect the macroeconomic determinants’ ability to explain the changes in housing prices.

Association between thyroid hormones & lipid profile in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients- A case control study in tertiary care hospital
Authors: Juliette A Veena , P Pangajam
Published: April 2021

Diabetes mellitus & thyroid dysfunction are the most common endocrinological disorders in the current era. Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders usually associated with dyslipidemia which increases risk of cardiovascular disorders and resultant morbidity & mortality. Thyroid dysfunction particularly hypothyroidism is frequently encountered in diabetic patients. T2DM results in reduction in thyroid releasing hormone (TRH) synthesis & limits T3 & T4 production, which results in increased total cholesterol & LDL in circulation. By studying the association of thyroid hormones & lipid profile in diabetes patients, we can enhance the knowledge about the interrelation between diabetes, thyroid hormones & dyslipidemia.

To study the association between thyroid hormones & lipid profile in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients.

This is a case control study comprising of 50 cases (T2DM) & 50 age & sex matched healthy controls. Fasting blood sample was taken and analysed for blood sugar, lipid profile, Triiodothyronine(T3), Thyroxine(T4) & TSH.

In this study, higher serum level of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol & triglycerides seen in T2DM patients. Also significantly lower T3&T4 and higher TSH are observed in T2DM. Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between TSH and TC, LDL-C and TGL & significant negative correlation between T3&T4 and TC, LDL-C & TGL.

Thyroid dysfunction is associated with lipid dysregulation in T2DM patients. Early & routine screening of thyroid disorders in T2DM patients can reduce morbidity due to dyslipidemia.

Published: April 2021

Internal jugular vein thrombosis (IJVT) is uncommon and an unidentifiable vascular disease which showed fatal complications mainly sepsis and pulmonary embolism. It is usually subsidiary to intravenous drug abuse, prolonged central venous catheterization or deep head-neck infections or trauma. Associated malignancies are not common and not well documented in the etiology of IJVT. Spontaneous IJVT is considered when no evident predisposing cause of thrombosis is present. A previously healthy, 37-year-old woman doctor by profession presented to the radiology department due to the mild painful swelling in the left anterior side of her neck. Physical examination revealed a painful, soft and immobile mass in the left anterior side of the neck beneath the sternocleidomastoid muscle, without hyperemia or local heat. On ultrasonographic examination, an echogenic thrombus with absent colour flow noted in left internal jugular vein s/o complete thrombosis. The patient was administered subcutaneous Fondared 7.5 mg (fondaparinux sodium inj) as anticoagulant therapy for 14 days (2 weeks). Her complaints were relieved within 14 days and later she was put on Ecosprin 150 mg once daily for 6 months. Partial recanulization was seen after 3 months. This case report describes a patient with IJVT. Venous thrombosis in general results from impaired blood flow locally or systemically that leads to activation of coagulation. Physicians should uphold a high index of suspicion in patients who present with undiagnosed swelling in the neck, or other signs and symptoms attributed to IJVT.
¿Funciona integrar servicios de primera infancia con los servicios de salud?: Evidencia experimental del programa de visitas domiciliarias Cresça Com Seu Filho
Authors: López Boo Florencia , Ferro María de la Paz , Carneiro Pedro
Published: April 2021

Un desafío clave de la política pública es cómo llevar a escala programas de primera infancia efectivos. Si la entrega de estos programas pudiera hacerse a través de la infraestructura de servicios públicos existentes, esto resultaría no solo escalable sino más costo-eficiente. Este documento es de los primeros en evaluar los impactos de corto plazo de un programa de visitas domiciliarias a escala integrado completamente con los servicios de atención primaria en salud (en este caso, la Estratégia Saúde da Família de Brasil). Nuestra estrategia de identificación explota la aleatorización original del programa Cresça Com Seu Filho en Fortaleza a nivel de agente comunitario de salud (ACS). En la estimación de intención de tratamiento (ITT, por sus siglas en inglés) encontramos un impacto positivo modesto en la calidad del entorno familiar (0.12 desvíos estándar, DE). Este resultado se alinea con el foco del currículo del programa en el cuidado sensible, receptivo y no punitivo de los niños. No encontramos evidencia de impacto en desarrollo infantil, muy probablemente debido a los desafíos con la intensidad y la fidelidad de las visitas. Nuestros resultados apuntan a la importancia de mejorar los sistemas de supervisión y acompañamiento del personal para lograr mejoras en la fidelidad de la intervención, así como en esquemas de motivación intrínseca del recurso humano que, en un contexto de mayor carga laboral, resulta central para el éxito de este tipo de intervenciones.

Published: April 2021

O ozônio é um forte agente oxidante que pode ser utilizado no tratamento de efluentes com corantes das indústrias têxteis. Nesse trabalho foram avaliados os percentuais de descoloração e degradação de soluções contendo 10 mg/L de alaranjado de metila, 10 mg/L de azul de metileno e 10 mg/L de verde malaquita, utilizando borbulhamento de ozônio. Para isso, foi construído um sistema de ozonização de ar com potência de 30 W, baseado no efeito corona. Os resultados mostraram que o sistema de ozonização foi bastante eficiente na descoloração (>96%) de soluções contendo alaranjado de metila, azul de metileno e verde malaquita. O efeito da variação da vazão de ar (2,5-7,5 mL/min) na entrada do ozonizador mostrou que no início da reação, a descoloração aumentou com o aumento da vazão. No entanto, após uma hora não se observou diferença significativa na remoção de cor. Os resultados de DQO mostraram degradação de 99% do azul de metileno e 40% do alaranjado de metila.

There has been an increase the prevalence of andrological diseases in all age groups in recent decades, including those with comorbid conditions such as pathology of the cardiovascular system and liver, which are manifestations of metabolic syndrome.Research aim: to investigate the relationship between formation of hepatic steatosis and hypoandrogenism (HA) in adolescent boys.Materials and methods. The study involved 42 adolescent boys aged 14–18 years with laboratory confirmed HA in whom total testosterone levels were less than 12.0 nmol/l. Sex hormones, gonadotropins, insulin levels, biochemical parameters of liver function, the state of free radical oxidation and antioxidant protection were determined in patients. Based on ultrasound examination adolescents with HA were divided into 2 groups: group 1 – 15 adolescents with signs of liver steatosis; group 2 – 27 adolescents with normal ultrasound parameters of a liver. The control group consisted of 38 boys of the same age with normal indicators of physical and sexual development without signs of pathology of the hepatobiliary system. Results. Individual assessment of sexual development allowed to diagnose I degree of delayed sexual development in 44.7%, II degree in 38.3% and III degree in 17.0% of adolescents. HA negatively affects the physical development of most boys (78.7%), due to short stature (40.0%), weight deficiency (20.0%) and overweight (18.7%). Factor analysis allowed to build a factor model of hepatic steatosis formation in adolescents with delayed sexual development and HA, which describes 76.0% of the sample and consists of five factors. Conclusion. Atherogenic changes of the lipid profile, androgen deficiency, insulin resistance, activation of cytolytic processes in the liver and oxidative stress formation due to a decrease in the effectiveness of antioxidant protection are important in the pathogenesis of hepatic steatosis in boys with HA. A factor model of the hepatic steatosis development in adolescent boys with HA gives grounds for the development of therapeutic and preventive measures in adolescent boys with HA and comorbid liver pathology.

Authors: Ferrando M. , Coroleu B. , Rodríguez-Tabernero L.
Published: April 2021

Background. The first biosimilar of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) launched in Europe was Bemfola® in 2014 following a clinical development programme demonstrating efficacy and safety to the satisfaction of the European Medicines Agency. Since then the increasing use of biosimilar rFSH has provided the opportunity to study both effectiveness across the whole population and the variation of rFSH use during routine clinical care in a real-world setting in Spain.Methods. This is a real-world study of 1222 women treated in 26 assisted reproduction treatment centres throughout Spain providing experience of the use of a biosimilar recombinant follicle stimulating hormone in four distinct populations. The four populations studied were poor responders, suboptimal responders, normal responders and oocyte donors. The primary endpoint was the total number of oocytes retrieved. Secondary endpoints included number of days of rFSH stimulation, total dose of rFSH administered, number of MII oocytes, number of fertilized oocytes, quality of embryos, number of embryos transferred, implantation rates, clinical pregnancy rates following embryo transfer, number of multiple pregnancies and number of serious adverse reactions, including moderate-to-severe OHSS.Results. Differences were seen across the populations both in the characteristics of the women and ART outcomes suggestive of a continuum of fertility prognosis. In the poor responders, suboptimal responders, normal responders and oocyte donor populations the mean age in years was 39.9 (±SD 3.4), 38.4 (±SD 2.9), 34.4 (±SD 3.3) and 26 (±SD 4.6) respectively and number of oocytes retrieved was 4.1 (±SD 2.7), 8.6 (±SD 6.0), 12.2 (±SD 7.2) and 19.5 (±SD 9.5) respectively. The proportion of embryos graded as best quality was 18.5%, 33.0% and 43.8%, and graded as worst quality was 20.4%, 5.8% and 5.8% for poor responders, suboptimal responders and normal responders respectively. In a similar pattern, for poor responders, suboptimal responders and normal responders the implantation rates were 16.0%, (8/50), 22.4% (49/219), 30.6% (97/317) respectively and clinical pregnancy rates were 23.2% (10/43), 30.4% (59/194) and 37.0% (114/308) respectively. Adverse events were reported in only 7 of 1222 women (0.6%).Conclusion. Overall the results were consistent with the national ART results reported for Spain, hence this study provides reassurance of the clinical effectiveness of a biosimilar rFSH used in a real world setting.

Published: April 2021

A Colômbia vem apresentando múltiplas e profundas transformações sócio-territoriais, as quais contam entre seus detonantes dois processos: o avanço da globalização do sistema capitalista, e os Acordos de Paz de Havana. Estes tem acelerado a abertura de territórios que, tradicionalmente e por conta do conflito armado interno do país e seu isolamento geográfico, tinham experimentado dificuldades na circulação do capital. Perante esse panorama emergem alternativas de desenvolvimento que procuram tornar-se sustentáveis ou menos nocivas à natureza e às populações originárias. Esse artigo é uma análise introdutória ao turismo interessado pelos valores ambientais e paisagísticos do território, a partir da experiência de uma comunidade indígena do Departamento do Guainía (Amazônia colombiana). Poderíamos defini-lo como sendo uma iniciativa que valoriza tais aspectos, bem como estabelecendo ações compromissadas com o desenvolvimento local, como uma estratégia que procura a conservação ambiental, assim como melhorar as condições socioeconômicas das populações que habitam territórios de interesse daquela indústria, mas que apresenta suas próprias contradições e conflitos.Palavras chave: território, natureza, turismo.

Published: April 2021

Baja California es uno de los principales productores de jitomate (Solanum lycopersicum) en México. La marchitez vascular, causada por Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol), es una de las principales enfermedades que afectan al cultivo del jitomate en el estado de Baja California; sin embargo, se desconoce la identidad de las especies de Fusarium, la ocurrencia de Fol y las razas presentes. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue aislar e identificar aislados de Fusarium de plantas enfermas de jitomate y validar métodos de diagnóstico para identificar Fol a nivel de raza. Se colectaron 60 plantas sintomáticas, de las que se obtuvieron 45 aislados. Al ser analizadas microscópicamente se confirmó que 44 pertenecieron al género Fusarium. El uso de los pares de oligonucleótidos sp13 y sp23, que amplifican los genes de poligalacturonasas pgx4 y pg1, indicaron la presencia de Fol razas 1 y 3 en la zona. El análisis de secuencias del factor de elongación de la traducción 1? (TEF1-?) de cepas representativas confirmó la identificación de la presencia de Fol y de Fusarium solani en plantas de jitomate con síntomas de marchitez vascular. Finalmente, un análisis RAPD, identificó que el oligonucleótido OPA-11 genera un patrón de bandeo especifico en aislados de la raza 1 por lo que podría emplearse como una forma rápida para la identificación de cepas de esta raza.

Published: April 2021

The rapid advance of Covid-19 cases in Brazil and worldwide has generated the need to build field hospitals (FH) to serve the population. However, the construction of such FHs has also generated management difficulties for the various stakeholders involved. Therefore, the present study aims to analyze the relationship of stakeholders in the construction of FH based on the Stakeholder Theory. Considering the FH built in the state of Rio de Janeiro as a typical case of complexity regarding the different types of private and public management, 16 FH in the state are analyzed. The results reveal similar relationship structures in FH funded by the private, state and municipal initiatives. However, the differences associated with greater clarity in the flow of ideals, influences and interests of stakeholders involved in private initiative FH are evidence that this aspect in the stakeholder management leads to greater success in the result delivered to the population, thus reinforcing the principles of the Stakeholder Theory. Such results can support the action of professionals involved in the construction of FH in Brazil, and also serve as input for future research on stakeholder management in disaster operations.
PANDEMİNİN SÖZ OLUP DİLE DÖKÜLMESİ: KLASİK TÜRK EDEBİYATINDA SALGINDA ÖLEN KIZ ÇOCUKLARI VE KADINLAR İÇİN YAZILMIŞ ŞİİRLER

Anadolu, kıtalar arası geçiş güzergâhında bulunduğu için, ilk çağlardan itibaren özellikle tüccarlar, hacılar ve ordular aracılığıyla hem Avrupa hem de Asya kökenli salgın hastalıklara maruz kalmıştır. Kuruluşundan yıkılışına kadar Osmanlı’da hemen her devirde veba başta olmak üzere çeşitli salgın hastalıklarla uğraşılmıştır.
Osmanlı toplumunun sosyal ve gündelik hayatından izler taşıyan klasik Türk edebiyatı ya da yaygın bir söyleyişle divan edebiyatı metinlerinden bulaşıcı ve salgın hastalıkları ve bunların olumsuz sonuçlarını görmek mümkündür. Şairler, toplumu derinden etkileyen ve çoğu zaman büyük olumsuzlukların yaşanmasına sebebiyet veren salgın hastalıklara karşı sessiz kalmamış; bu hastalıklar esnasında yaşanan olayları eserlerinde işlemişler ve kayıt altına almışlardır.
Ölüm herkes için bir ayrılıktır ve hayatın bir gerçeğidir. Çok sevilen bir yakının geriye dönmesi mümkün olmayan bir şekilde yitirilmesi karşısında insanın duygulanması, tepki göstermesi çok normaldir. Bir eş, bir baba ve ağabey olarak şairlerin özellikle salgın hastalıklarda vefat eden hanımları, kızları ve kız kardeşleri için yazdıkları mersiyeler, bir kadın için yazılmış şiirlerin en hüzünlülerindendir. Kimi zaman edebî kaygıdan uzak, kişisel bir vedalaşma niteliğinde yazılan bu acıklı şiirlerde şairin mutlak karşısındaki tevekkülü, kimi zaman kızını kaybeden ve evlat acısı çeken bir babanın çırpınışları ve bireysel ıstırabı görülür.
Bu çalışmada klasik Türk şairlerinin salgın hastalıkların devamında ölen kız çocukları ve hanımlar için kaleme aldıkları hüzün şiirleri incelenecektir.

Published: April 2021

Ebced hesabı, genellikle bir olayı tarihlendirmek için kullanılan ve rakamları harflerden ibaret olan bir sistemdir. Ebced kelimesi, Arapların kendi alfabelerindeki harfleri daha kolay ezberlemek için ürettikleri anlamsız sekiz kelimeden ilkidir. Klasik Türk şiirinde; doğum, ölüm, düğün, savaş, bina yapımı gibi birçok önemli olayın tarihini ortaya koymak için ebced hesabının kullanılması bir gelenek halini almıştır. Klasik şiirimizdeki “tarih düşürme” sanatının temelinde ebced hesabı bulunmaktadır.
Tarih düşürme; bir hadisenin meydana geldiği zamanı gösteren kelime, mısra, beyit ya da bentlerdeki harflerin sayısal değerlerinin toplanmasıyla yapılan bir edebi sanattır. Genellikle istenilen tarih son mısrada belirtilir. Tarihler, yazarı için önemli sayılabilecek hemen her olay için yazılmıştır. Tarih düşürmenin birden çok yöntemi bulunmaktadır. Klasik Türk şair-leri içinde Hızır Bey, Âdem Baba, Bursalı Hâşimî, Sürûrî, Antepli Aynî gibi şairler, tarih düşürme hususunda ön plana çıkan şairlerdir.
XVIII. yüzyılın önemli şairlerinden olan Enderunlu Fâzıl’ın Divan’ında 164 adet tarih manzumesi bulunmaktadır. Bu tarihler-den dokuz tanesi daha önce kullanılmamış dört farklı yöntemle kaleme alınmıştır. Bu çalışmada Enderunlu Fâzıl Divanı’nda bulunan tarih manzumeleri; konu, tür, yöntem ve zaman gibi çeşitli yönlerden incelenecek ve elde edilen bilgiler sayısal verilerle desteklenerek ilim alemine katkıda bulunmaya çalışılacaktır.

O kheuól do Uaçá é uma língua crioula de base francesa falada por dois povos indígenas distintos, Karipuna e Galibi-Marworno, que compartilham o mesmo território (Terras Indígenas do Uaçá e Juminã) em Oiapoque, Amapá, Brasil, na fronteira com a Guiana Francesa. Ambas as variedades do kheuól do Uaçá são subdocumentadas, principalmente a Galibi-Marworno descrita neste artigo. Quase todos os nomes combinam-se com numerais (kwak ‘farinha’ é a única exceção); quase todos os quantificadores e modificadores de quantidade não mostram restrições na combinação com nomes nocionalmente contáveis e massivos (un de thoa ‘alguns, uns’ se combina somente com nomes nocionalmente contáveis); e todos os nomes podem ser pluralizados com o artigo definido plural -iela. Considerando que quase todos os nomes podem ser contados, o contraste relevante está presente na capacidade de nomes nocionalmente massivos serem abertos para denotações unbounded. Esta capacidade pode ser capturada pelo fato de nomes nocionalmente massivos recuperarem a terceira pessoa do singular i/li como anáfora para nomes sortal em contextos de nominais nus (neutros para número); por outro lado, nomes nocionalmente contáveis recuperam a terceira pessoa do plural ie como anáfora nos mesmos contextos.
A A framework for designing pedagogical materials in Indigenous languages: examples from Brazil and Mexico
Authors: Amaral Luiz
Published: April 2021

Many language revitalization programs in Latin America rely heavily on instructional settings that require some sort of pedagogical materials. One of the primary challenges for such programs is to produce these materials and incorporate them into consistent practices. This paper presents a framework that can be used to assess the needs and justify the design choices for books, dictionaries, grammars and multimedia products to be incorporated into indigenous language revitalization programs. The examples used to illustrate the deployment of such framework come from two projects, one in Brazil and one in Mexico, to prepare pedagogical grammars in multiple indigenous languages.
Escrituras (de) qom en el dominio religioso (Chaco argentino, 1950-1970)
Authors: Almiron Soledad , Padawer Ana
Published: April 2021

Este artículo analiza la producción de materiales escritos en lengua qom o bilingües qom-castellano, realizados por indígenas de dicho colectivo en un contexto religioso de inserción misional protestante, en el noreste de Argentina entre 1960-1970. Los textos responden a finalidades diversas: religiosas, productivas y educativas; corresponden, por lo tanto, a géneros tales como epístolas, reflexiones bíblicas y cartillas de alfabetización para la enseñanza de la lectura y la escritura en qom. El análisis que realizamos propone indicios de algunas modalidades de apropiación indígena del proceso de escrituración en lengua qom en el marco de la historia de la cultura escrita, para la cual utilizamos fuentes escritas, visuales y orales.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi corrupt intention berdasarkan theory of reasoned action (TRA). Artikel ini berhipotesis bahwa hierarchy culture dan dark triad personality memengaruhi corrupt intention. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan corrupt intention scale (2009), the dirty dozen scale (2010), dan organizational culture survey (consistency) (2006). Menggunakan online surveys kami berhasil mendapatkan partisipan sebanyak 93 pegawai dari berbagai lembaga pemerintahan di Indonesia. Analisis data dilakukan dengan analisis multiple regression. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa (1) hierarchy culture tidak signifikan memengaruhi corrupt intention (β = 0,00; p < 0,05); dan (2) dark triad personality signifikan memengaruhi corrupt intention (β = 0,24; p < 0,01). Temuan lainnya yaitu status kerja sebagai variabel kontrol (β = 1,81; p < 0,05) juga signifikan memengaruhi terjadinya corrupt intention. Faktor tersebut mampu memprediksi varian corrupt intention sebesar 35%, F(4,85) = 16,64, p <0,01. Temuan penelitian ini dapat memberikan bukti bahwa faktor eksternal pegawai seperti budaya di organisasi dalam hal ini hierarchy culture bukan menjadi faktor yang menentukan munculnya corrupt intention, namun yang lebih menentukan adalah faktor internal pegawai yaitu dark triad personality.

Nomenclatural problems with the name Atalantia simplicifolia are discussed, and it is shown that A. roxburghiana, often used for it, is illegitimate. Formerly part of Murraya, Bergera is recognized as separate genus for Thailand. Murraya siamensis is reduced to a synonym of Bergera koenigii.
Predictions of COVID-19 Pandemic Dynamics in Ukraine and Qatar Based on Generalized SIR Model
Authors: Nesteruk Igor , Benlagha Noureddine
Published: April 2021

Background. To simulate how the number of COVID-19 cases increases versus time, various data sets and different mathematical models can be used. Since there are some differences in statistical data, the results of simulations can be different. Complex mathematical models contain many unknown parameters, the values ​​of which must be determined using a limited number of observations of the disease over time. Even long-term monitoring of the epidemic may not provide reliable estimates of the model parameters due to the constant change of testing conditions, isolation of infected, quarantine conditions, pathogen mutations, vaccinations, etc. Therefore, simpler approaches are necessary. In particular, previous simulations of the COVID-19 epidemic dynamics in Ukraine were based on smoothing of the dependence of the number of cases on time and the generalized SIR (susceptible–infected–removed) model. These approaches allowed detecting the pandemic waves and calculating adequate predictions of their duration and final sizes. In particular, eight waves of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ukraine were investigated.
Objective. We aimed to detect the changes in the pandemic dynamics and present the results of SIR simu­lations based on Ukrainian national statistics and data reported by Johns Hopkins University (JHU) for Ukraine and Qatar.
Methods. In this study we use the smoothing method for the dependences of the number of cases on time, the generalized SIR model for the dynamics of any epidemic wave, the exact solution of the linear differential equations, and statistical approach for the model parameter identification developed before.
Results. The optimal values of the SIR model parameters were calculated and some predictions about final sizes and durations of the epidemics are presented. Corresponding SIR curves are shown and compared with the real numbers of cases.
Conclusions. Unfortunately, the forecasts are not very optimistic: in Ukraine, new cases will not stop appearing until June–July 2021; in Qatar, new cases are likely to appear throughout 2021. The expected long duration of the pandemic forces us to be careful and in solidarity. Probably the presented results could be useful in order to estimate the efficiency of vaccinations.

The increase in economic needs has resulted in increased community pressure on forest area. This encourage the government to open up access to utilize forest, in order to improve the community's economy. Since March 2018, access to utilize forest has been implemented in Masigit Kareumbi Game Reserve (TBMK). However, research related to the evaluation of activities has not been widely found. This study aims to evaluate and determine the optimal pine tapping management strategy in TBMK. The research was conducted in Sukajaya and Citengah Villages, South Sumedang District, using Ostrom Institutional Analysis and Development Framework, Stakeholder Analysis, and the Analysis Hierarchy Process. The result showed that, the potential of pine resin in the research location was 308,377.3 kg/year, which had a positive economic, social, and institutional impact on the community but tended to have a negative impact on the ecological aspects. Stakeholder analysis showed that the parties involved were among others KLHK, BBKSDA West Java, Sukajaya and Citengah Heads Village, Forest Farmer Group (KTH) Sawargi and Medal Kencana, Pinus Merkusii Cooperation, and the Indonesian Conservation Cadre Communication Forum (FK3I). Each stakeholder has a good relationship, however, there is still a need for a more optimal communication and coordination system between one another. The suggested strategy is to increase community assistance by FK3I and Pinus Merkusii Cooperation involvement in limiting the tapping pine resin.

Published: April 2021

Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (BTSNP) is one of the conservation areas in Indonesian that functions as a protected area, a biosphere reserve area, and a tourism destination. The research was conducted to determine the BTSNP sustainable competitiveness potential as a tourism destination as well as conservation area. This research used secondary data obtained from the TripAdvisor site in 2018 and primary data obtained through interviews, FGD, documentation, and observation. The data was analyzed by using a sentiment analysis approach based on the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index (TTCI) concept. The result showed that BTSNP’s sustainable competitiveness was most negatively influenced by tourism policy and environmental conditions. To overcome those of negative impacts, the related stakeholders need to apply more suitable policies based on natural and social condition of BTSNP, such as biosphere reserve and local tourism clustering-based policy. The purpose of developing a new local tourism attraction (clustering) in BTSNP was to overcome waste and excess tourist capacity in the BTSNP protected area. The clustering also aims to maximize local tourism development strategies based on the biosphere reserve concept in the BTSNP area. So, the policies related to biosphere reserve and tourism clustering can effectively increase sustainable competitiveness ecotourism in BTSNP.
Pemanfaatan Energi Arus Laut Pada Teluk Awerange Sebagai Sumber Energi Alternatif Yang Bekerlanjutan
Authors: Husain Firman , Widianingrum Windi
Published: April 2021

Indonesia memiliki luas laut 96.079 km2 dan panjang garis pantai sebesar 99.093 km, membuat Indonesia memiliki potensi untuk memanfaatkan laut sebagai sumber energi baru terbarukan. Namun pemanfaatan energi baru terbarukan saat ini baru mencapai 6,2% pada tahun 2015. Salah satu energi laut yang dapat dimanfaatkan adalah arus laut. Teluk Awerange yang terletak di Sulawesi Selatan merupakan titik yang memiliki sumber energi laut dan dapat dimanfaatkan menjadi energi terbarukan berkelanjutan yang ramah lingkungan. Kecepatan arus di wilayah Teluk Awerange dalam kondisi surut dapat mencapai 0,25 – 0,36 m/s. Sehingga dapat memungkinkan untuk menggunakan energi pasang surut dengan menggunakan turbin. Turbin Kobold memanfaatkan arus dari air laut pada Teluk Awerange. Dengan menggunakan turbin bi-directional (dua arah) yang menggerakkan turbin searah  jarum jam maupun sebaliknya. Turbin yang dipasang secara horizontal pada dasar laut dapat mengubah energi kinetik dari turbin menjadi energi listrik saat pasang surut, menjadikan turbin layak digunakan sebagai pembangkit energi listrik tenaga pasang surut laut. Sebagai sampel berdasarkan Kementrian ESDM energi arus dapat menghasilkan 1,2 MW/turbin. Keuntungan besar dari turbin bi-directional adalah bahwa bilah baling-baling tidak perlu dibalik ketika arah aliran berubah. Hal ini membuat desain yang kuat, lebih murah untuk membangun, dirawat dan resiko kerusakan lebih rendah. Juga turbin dua arah rata-rata menghasilkan dua kali energi listrik dari yang dihasilkan oleh turbin uni-directional, yang hanya berfungsi selama pasang surut atau banjir.
