Use of Ovitrap for The Spatial Mapping of Aedes spp. in The Endemic Area of Dengue Fever of Baitussalam District Aceh Besar
Get PDFThe strategy for controlling dengue vector through periodic monitoring is an effective mitigation effort. Periodic monitoring of dengue vectors is generally more often conducted in the larval stage rather than the egg stage. Monitoring Aedes eggs periodically using ovitraps is more effective because it is not restricted by season. The objective of this study is to conduct spatial mapping of Aedes spp. distribution using ovitraps in Baitussalam Subdistrict, Aceh Besar. This study used observational methods and purposive sampling to determine the sample houses for ovitrap placement. A total of 50 houses in 5 gampong/village were observed. Analysis was conducted using the GPS Essentials application and Google Earth Pro software. The results showed that there were 4 gampong with Aedes spp. egg distribution in Baitussalam Subdistrict, Aceh Besar, namely Gampong Blang Krueng, Gampong Baet, Gampong Kajhu, and Gampong Cadek, while in Gampong Lam Ujong, no ovitraps positive for Aedes eggs. Ovitraps are an effective method for mapping Aedes spp. in efforts to control dengue. Keyword: Aedes spp; Dengue fever; ovitrap; spatial mapping

Textual and linguistic characteristics in ELT research article abstracts: Insights from Indonesian novice writers
No full textIn academic writing, particularly in research article abstracts, rhetorical moves and linguistic features are pivotal for effectively communicating findings to a broad audience. This study explores the rhetorical moves employed by Indonesian novice writers in their research article abstracts and their linguistic realization. Using a descriptive qualitative design, we analyzed 25 English Language Teaching (ELT) abstracts written by Indonesian novice writers, employing a checklist instrument for data collection. The results indicate that purpose and product moves are obligatory, method and conclusion moves are conventional, and introduction moves are optional. Rhetorical patterns predominantly follow a linear structure, with embedded and less frequent moves occurring less often. Linguistically, active voice prevails across all moves, surpassing passive voice usage. Present tense is the most common, followed by past, perfect, and future tenses. Key interactional metadiscourse devices, including hedges, boosters, and attitude markers, are evident, while engagement markers and self-mentions are notably absent. This study underscores variations in rhetorical structures and linguistic features among Indonesian novice writers, offering insights to enhance their academic writing practices
