Management of the Jatiluwih Irrigation area with sustainable planting patterns and water balance in Tabanan Regency
Jatiluwih Village is located in Penebel District, Tabanan Regency, Bali. Jatiluwih Village is a highland village located at the foot of Mount Batukaru. This village is located at an altitude of 500-1500 meters above sea level and has an average rainfall of 2500 mm/year. Most of the population in the Jatiluwih area still relies on the economy of planting rice, with a good irrigation system. Rice fields in the Jatiluwih irrigation area need protection and preservation so that their area does not decrease. This priority is necessary because the meaning of land, including paddy fields is very important for humans, not only to own, but also to live their lives. Irrigation is an effort made to obtain water by using intake buildings and carrier channels. The Jatiluwih Irrigation Area has water sources from several springs that flow in the Jatiluwih Area. Jatiluwih weir with water sources from Tukad Baat has an irrigation area of 390 ha. The subaks that are irrigated by the Jatiluwih Dam are Jatiluwih Subak, Subak Gunungsari, Subak Kedamaian and Subak Wangaya Betan. The development and management of irrigation networks will greatly assist water-using farmers in an effort to increase the production of agricultural products, especially rice
Does COVID-19 pandemic moderate financial leverage, firm size, and dividend pay-out ratio on systematic risk (beta) of stock?
The purpose of this study was to obtain empirical evidence regarding the effect of financial leverage, firm size, and dividend payout ratio on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks with the Covid-19 pandemic as a moderating variable. The data used is secondary data obtained from annual reports of LQ-45 index companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2018-2022 period. The data analysis technique used was the sub-group moderation. The total population in this study was 45 companies listed in the LQ-45 index, using the purposive sampling method, where 115 observations were obtained. The research results show that: 1) financial leverage has a positive effect on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks; 2) firm size has no effect on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks; 3) dividend payout has a negative effect on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks; 4) the COVID-19 pandemic strengthened the effect of financial leverage on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks; 5) the COVID-19 pandemic was unable to moderate the effect of firm size on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks; and 6) the COVID-19 pandemic strengthened the effect of the dividend payout ratio on the systematic risk (beta) of stocks. 
Performance analysis of pulse shaping rectangular pulse through frequency selective fading transmission channel in OFDM system
- Long Term Evolution or LTE is a fourth generation (4G) cellular network technology that uses OFDM as its multiplexing technique for fast and effective wireless communication services. OFDM uses the concept of orthogonality for bandwidth efficiency by multiplexing overlapping subcarriers. But in its implementation, this system will have problems in the transmission channel. In addition, OFDM has the major drawback of being susceptible to frequency offset between the transmitter and receiver. This offset frequency will cause the orthogonal character built in the OFDM system to experience a decrease in performance. This decrease in performance is due to the occurrence of ICI. To overcome this, a method is needed to improve system performance. The method used in this research is Rectangular Pulse. Therefore, this research is made to combine the advantages of OFDM and pulse shaping and is expected to produce a superior system and can contribute to the improvement of 4G-LTE implementation. The approach method in this research applies a quantitative descriptive approach to analyze system performance and in this research uses the simulation method as a reference to obtain research data using the Matlab application
Performance analysis of flood control buildings Mati river watershed area
The problem of flooding is a classic problem that befalls almost all regions in Indonesia. Likewise, the area in the Mati river watershed is experiencing problems that are not much different. Moreover, with the existing developments, almost all areas in the Mati River watershed have developed into urban settlement areas which have led to land conversion from agricultural land and green open land to other built-up land. The middle and downstream areas in the Mati River watershed are the main tourism areas in Bali such as Seminyak, Legian, Kuta and parts of the West Denpasar District, Denpasar City. These areas are dense settlements which contribute to increased surface runoff in almost all watershed areas. Several areas in the Mati River watershed are flood-prone areas, namely the Padangsambian area, Jalan Pura Demak area, Monang-Maning, Jalan Dewi Sri and areas in East Kuta. Several river improvements have been made to reduce the impact of flooding, namely changing the permanent weir to a mobile weir, normalizing the channel and building a pumping station which aims to reduce the effects of flooding and stagnant water during the rainy season
The effect of Pomodoro technique on student Mendelian genetics concept mastery during synchronous remote learning
The Pomodoro technique is a timed-based strategy used in fighting procrastination and found to increase academic performance. However, its effect on academic learning in a synchronous remote learning modality has yet to be investigated. The study used a mixed triangulation semi-experimental design using a whole sample (N=46), following all ethical equivalence procedures. The genetics concept mastery of the students was tested using a researcher-made test. ANCOVA results revealed that students taught using Pomodoro yielded significantly better concept mastery in genetics than the lecture method. This study contributes to the evaluation of one science teaching strategy compatible with remote learning modality
The representation of Zen Buddism in Ikebana flower arrangement of Ikenobou School
This study aims to describe the philosophy emerges from Ikebana (the Japanese flower arrangement) of Ikenobou school/stream and the representation of beauty concept according to Zen Buddhism in Ikenobou’s ikebana. The research data was contained of seven (7) characteristics of Zen Buddhism according to Hisamatsu Shin’ichi namely: fukinsei, kanso, shizen, kokou, yuugen, datsuzoku, and seijaku within five (5) Ikebana flower arrangements from Ikenobou school namely: rikka, shoka, moribana, nageire, and jiyuka. As the result showed: 1) the prominent characteristic was Seijaku which found in the four Ikebana styles in twenty-one pieces, meanwhile the least characteristics were Fukinsei and Kanso found in two pieces of flower arrangements whereas the Kokou characteristic was absent in all flower arrangements; 2) the representation of beauty philosophy found in the flower arrangement of Ikenobou school/stream through its Ikebana styles were: (a). The 自由化 (Jiyuka) style represented characteristic of: 不均斉 (fukinsei) or asymmetrical, 自然 (shizen) or naturalness, and 脱俗 (datsuzoku) or free from bonds/ties. (b). The 昇華正風一種いけ (Shoka Shofutai Isshuike) style represented the characteristics of 簡素 (kanso) or simplicity. (c). The 立花 (rikka) style represented the characteristic of 幽玄 (yuugen) or deep meaning and (d). 昇華新風 (shoka shinputai) represented the characteristic of 静寂 (sijaku) or stillness/silence
