Get PDFThis article is objected to measure the coastal communities role in the implementation of marine resource conservation strategies. The population were all coastal communities in Palabuhanratu, Sukabumi. Respondents of 50 people were chosen randomly. Data were collected by using survey method, and were analyzed by Pearson correlation. The results indicated that the level of education of coastal communities was a primary school. Respondents have been working more than 10 years. Those who knew the meaning of the protection and conservation of marine resources was 56%, while 88% of them did not know the meaning of preservation of marine resources. The role of coastal communities in aspects of marine resource protection was low, in the aspects of marine resource conservation was high, and in the preservation of marine resources was low. The characteristics of coastal communities correlated positively with the level of knowledge of coastal communities (0,3 and ? = 0,05). Furthermore, the level of knowledge of coastal communities associated with the role of coastal communities in the implementation of conservation strategies (0,5 and ? = 0,05)
ISOLASI DAN IDENTIFIKASI BAKTERI PEREDUKSI SULFAT PADA AREA PERTAMBANGAN BATU BARA MUARA ENIM, SUMATERA SELATAN
Get PDFSulfate reducing bacteria utilize sulfate as their terminal electron acceptor and reduce it to sulphide. Acid mine drainage, by-products of mining activities, is an acidic sulfate-rich wastewater suitable habitat for sulfate reducing bacteria. Isolation and identification of sulfate reducing bacteria collected from Muara Enim coal mining, South Sumatra was carried out at Laboratory of Environmental Biotechnology, Indonesian Center for Biodiversity and Biotechnology (ICBB), Bogor, and Laboratory of Microbiology, Faculty of Veterinary, Bogor Agricultural University. Postgate B liquid media was used for isolation and purification via serial dilution. Physiological and biochemical characterization was done based on Bergeys Manual of Determinative Bacteriology. Fifteen pure isolates have been isolated with diverse characteristics. Eight isolates can sustain at pH 3, while the rest sustain at pH 4 or above. Sulfate reduction efficiency of each isolates were different, but increased as the pH increased. The bacteria are classified as Desulfovibrio sp., which is characterized straight rods, motile, non spore-forming and able to grow in simple organic carbon
DAMPAK KEBIJAKAN FISKAL DAN MONETER DALAM PEREKONOMIAN INDONESIA: APLIKASI MODEL MUNDELL-FLEMING
Get PDFThis study aims to analysis the impact of fiscal and monetary policy in Indonesian economy by using Mundell Fleming (IS-LM-BOP) model. The main objective of this paper is to see the impact of fiscal and monetary policy to Indonesia Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Indonesia as a small open economy with imperfectly capital mobility, so temporary thesis of the Mundell-Fleming model is that monetary policy more effective than fiscal policy in improving of the GDP, that caused by its crowding out effect yielded from expansive\ fiscal policy. A variant of the Mundell Fleming model for the Indonesian economy is constructed and analysed using the Two Stage Least Square Methods (2sls). The result of two stage least square estimation indicating that the impact of monetary policy with money supply(M2) instrument is more effective in improving GDP than fiscal policy with government expenditure instrument . This result is proved with influences which are positive and significant among money supply (M2) variable and GDP from demand side. However, goverment expenditure variables give positive effect but not significant to the GDP. These finding support the Hypothesis of model Mundell-Flemin
PEMANFAATAN ICT CENTER DALAM PENINGKATAN AKSES SUMBER BELAJAR BAGI MAHASISWA UNIVERSITAS TERBUKA
Get PDFTo Increasing the learning resources access for UT students is one of the important agenda that needs to be translated into optimizing the role of Unit Program Belajar Jarak Jauh (UPBJJ). In this case, UPBJJ-UT Surabaya has developed a collaboration to utilize ICT Center which related to the National Education Network activity (Jardiknas). This research aim is to describe the use of ICT Center for increasing the access to the learning resources for UT students, by using a qualitative approach and descriptive evaluative research strategy. The result of this research shows that student participation in the ICT Center facility is still low, the only 53 student (11.77%). The low participation of students is due to, (1) lack of adequate socialization to students, (2) students ability to access the internet, (3) location of ICT Center from students resident, and (4) the lack of obligation policy for UT students to access the internet. The results of this research also shows that the collaboration between UPBJJ UT-Surabaya with the ICT Center is not optimal, because of; (1) limited technical guidance, (2) is no clarity of operational cost, and (3) the knowledge ICT Center the UT website. However, the collaboration a good prospect, because of the strong of government to the ICT Center activity
IDENTIFIKASI NILAI EKONOMI EKOSISTEM HUTAN MANGROVE DI DESA TAWIRI, AMBON
Get PDFThe ecological role of mangrove ecosystem is, economically, socially and physically, highly significant. Despite the many benefits provided by mangroves, they tend to be under intense pressure from competing resource used by local villagers, in particular, as firewood, or charcoal. The ecosystem is typically crucial, hence the benefits and values need to identify and estimate economically. The objectives of this research are: (1) to identify economic values of mangroves based on ecosystem benefits; and (2) to estimate total economic value (TEV) of use-value and non-use value of mangroves. The method of economic valuation was applied to estimate TEV based on the benefits of mangroves ecosystem (direct-use value, indirect-use, option use, and existence use values). Results of this research are as follows. (1) Functions and benefits of the mangrove ecosystem in the Village of Tawiri consisted of direct-use (fuel wood collection for the subsistence needs of local villagers, wild animals used by humans for subsistence purposes, near by fishing activities); indirect-use (natural barrier to shoreline erosion, highly nutritious food source for animals in the mangrove area), option use (biodiversity benefits), and existence use (WTP). (2) The TEV of mangrove was Rp 24,887,887 per year, consisting of direct-use value of Rp 11,299,500 per year (45.40%), indirect-value of Rp 9,098,077 per year (36.56%), existence value of Rp 4,083.750 per year (16.41%) and option value of Rp 406,560 per year (1.63%).
