Get PDFRELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN RICE GROWTH PARAMETERS AND REMOTE SENSING DATA
Get PDFRice is an agriculture plants that has the specific characteristic in the life stage due to the growth stage having different proportion of vegetation, water, and soil. Vegetation index is one of the satellite remote sensing parameter that is widely used to monitor the global vegetation cover. The objective of the study is to know the spectral characteristic of rice plant in the life stage and find the relationship between the rice growth parameters and the remote sensing data by the Landsat ETM data using the correlation and regression analysis. The result of study shows that the spectral characteristic of the rice before one month of age is defferent comparing after one month. All of the examined vegetation index has close linear relationship with rice coverage. Difference Vegetation Index (DVI) is the best vegetation index which estimates rice coverage with equation y = 1.762x + 2.558 and R degree value was 0.946. Rice age has a high quadratic relationship with all of evaluated vegetation index. Transformed Vegetation Index (TVI) is the best vegetation to predict the age of the rice. Formula y = 0.013x - 1.625x + 145.8 is the relationship form between the rice age and the TVI with R = 0.939. Peak of the vegetation index of rice is in the rice age of 2 months. This period is the transition of vegetative and generative stages. Keywords: Vegetation index, Rice growth, Spectral characteristic, Landsat ETM
INTERNAL WAVES DYNAMICS IN THE LOMBOK STRAIT STUDIED BY A NUMERICAL MODEL
Get PDFA baroclinic 3D hydrodynamic model with the non-hydrostatic approximation called Massachusetts Institute of Technology Global Circulation Model (MIT gcm) has been applied to simulate the generation of internal tidal bores and their disintegration into internal solitary waves in the Strait of Lombok. Numerical simulation have been carried out by incorporating seasonal variations of the stratification of the water body, which exist during the first transitional monsoon, the east monsoon, the second transitional monsoon, and the west monsoon. Our simulation yields the results that the existence of the sill at the southern part of the Lombok Strait, strong tidal flow, and a stratified fluid, play an important role in forming some short of divergence and convergence area as an indication of the birth of internal waves, which are simulated on the both sides of the sill. The simulated results reproduce reasonably well the basic features of internal waves in the Strait of Lombok as captured by the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) from the European Remote Sensing (ERS) satellites ERS 1 and ERS 2, such as a north-south asymmetry, propagation speeds, average amplitudes and wavelengths, and solution packets. Similiar to observations made by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellites, the simulation results also showed the intrusion of warmwater from thePacific Ocean into the Indian Ocean and the exitence of well-developmed thermal plume at south of the sill. Seasonal variations of interface depth of thermocline and the density difference between the stratified layers influence magnitudes of the amplitudes and wavelengths of the internal waves and solitons, and the distance of thermal plume in the Lombok Strait. It is found that during the monsoon transition periods and the west monson, the amplitudes of internal waves and solitons at the southern part of the strait is apparently larger than those at the northern one, whereas during the east monsoon, the wave amplitudes is large north of the sill than south of it. Meanwhile, the propagation speeds of northward propagating internal solitary waves (0.71-2.67m per s) are stronger than southward propagating ones (0.21-1.53 m per s) throughout the monsoon periods.

DIGITAL ELEVATION MODEL FROM PRISM-ALOS AND ASTER STEREOSCOPIC DATA
Get PDFDigital Elevation Model (DEM) is a source to produce contour map, slope, and aspect information, which is needed for other information such as disaster and water resources management. DEM can be generated by several methods. One of them is parallax calculations from stereoscopic data of optical sensor. Panchromatic Remote-Sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping (PRISM) sensor from Advanced LAnd Observation Satellite (ALOS) satellite and advance space borne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) sensor from Terra Satellite is Japanese optical satellite sensor which have abilityto produce stereoscopic data. This study showed DEM generations from PRISM (2.5 m spatial resolution) and ASTER (15m spatial resolution) stereoscopic data using image matching and collinear model based on Orthobase-pro software. The Generated DEM from each sensor was compared to the DEM from Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) X-C band with 30 m spatial resolution. The dependent on the pixel size from the DEM produced were also discussed. The result showed that both DEMs have similiar elevation and distribution pattern to the referenced DEM, but DEM for PRISM had higher relative accuracy (RMSE is 6.5 m) and Smoother pattern comparing to DEM from ASTER (RMSE is 10.2 m) Keyword : ASTER, DEM, PRISM, SRTM, Stereoscopic satellite dat
NUMERICAL CALCULATION OF PHOSPHATE TRANSPORT IN BENOA BAY, BALI
Get PDFA computational model to study the phosphate transport in the coastal environment was presented. It calculation involves the external sources of photosphate matter from the river discharge. The phosphjate distribution within the bay forced by tidal current, was calculated by Pricenton Ocean Model (POM) 2-dimension (barotropic mode). The tidal current obtained from simulation, shown a reasonably good agreement with in-situ tidal level data at Benoa tidal gauge station. The phosphate transport is generated by two-river discharge within the bay and three sources respected by wastewater treatment in Nusa Dua Bali, vessel parking area and waste garbage dump in suwung, respectively. The result confirm that a good agreement with the experiment data carried out within the bay. Keywords : phosphate transport, Princeton Ocean Model (POM
THE ASSESSMENT OF PELAGIC FISH STOCK AND ITS DISTRIBUTIONS IN INDIAN OCEAN BY SPLIT BEAM ACOUSTIC SYSTEM
Get PDFThe assessment of pelagic fish stock and its distribution in Indian Ocean, especially southern part of Java-Bali-Lombok, was conducted by SIMRAD EK-500 Split-beam Acoustic System, in October-November 2001. The research was carried out by R/V Baruna Jaya VII of Indonesia Institute of Science (LIPI), under the Fish Stock Assessment Project in Indonesian Waters of fiscal year 2001. As a result, it can be reported that (I) the dominant species of pelagic fish distributed in this area is small pelagic fish with target strength (TS) values between -54.00 dB to - 37.60 dB, absolute density of between 0.07 to 218 fish/1000 m\ and total fish stock of 526.570 ton/year; (2) the large pelagic fish (some species of tuna) also distributed in the area with average TS of -27 dB, absolute density between 0.00 to 0.07 fish/100 m\ and total fish stock of 386,260 ton/year. This result still needs more accurate verification, especially on the species composition and individual size of fish by a more appropriate biological sampling method (mid-water trawl). Consequently, more acoustical surveys combined with oceanographic sampling and exploratory fishing are needed to evaluate the existing condition of marine fish resources in the area, in order to optimize and set up the relevant and accurate fisheries management plan for suitable and responsible utilization offish resources.

STUDY ON VARIABILITY MECHANISM OF 1997/1998 ENSO IN PACIFIC OCEAN AND EASTERN PART OF INDONESIAN ARCHIPELAGO
Get PDFEl Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is one of the most important climate anomalies humans are concerned about. It brought many changes in physical of the ocean. This phenomenon causes changes in sea surface temperature (SST). During El-Nino condition, the SST is much warmer in eastern side of Pacific Ocean than normal condition, and during La-Nina event the SST in eastern Pacific Ocean is cooler than normal condition. From July 1997, the warm water has spread from the western Pacific Ocean towards the east and the winds in the western Pacific were blowing strongly towards the east, pushing the warm water eastward on December 1997 and January 1998. Strong La-Nina condition water extended farther westward than usual. In October 1997, during El-Nino event 1997, the SST in eastern part of Indonesia Archipelago was cooler. The varies of SST in PacificOcean during El-Nino 1997 was influenced the Indonesian Through Flow (ITF). During El-Nino event 1997, surface current flown strongly from Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean On the other hand, since March 1998 the surface current inversed from Indonesian Sea to the Pacific Ocean.

STUDY FOR ESTIMATION OF AIR-SEA C02 GAS TRANSFER BY WAVE BREAKING MODEL USING SATELLITE DATA — ESTIMATION OF THE FRICTION VELOCITY CONSIDERING WAVE EFFECT
Get PDFThe determination of wind friction velocity from satellite-derived wind data will take an important role of key factors for computation of C02 flux transfer. It is necessary for relation between wind speed and wind friction velocity to determine that of relation between nondimensional roughness length and wave age, included with all parameters (wind, wave). In this study, we proposed a new method to estimate u„, which is based on the new relationship between non-dimensional roughness and wave velocity, after considering fetch and
wave directionality. Consequently, we obtained the new relationship between friction velocity and wind speed. Using this relationship, we estimated the wave frequency from two methods:
3 per 2 powers law (Toba, 1972) and WAM model (WAMDI, 1988). The results arc compared with the results estimated from Charnock formula (1955) and the above influence of wave effects on the wind stress is also discussed. A new relationship was established to determine CO. exchange coefficient based on whitecap model (Monahan and Spillane 1984), using U|0-u, relationship in North Pacific Ocean, satellite data of NOAA-AVHRR (SST) and DMSP-SSM-I (wind speed) in Oct., Nov., and Dec. 1991. The C02 exchange coefficient estimated by other models (Wanninkhof, 1992; Liss and Merlivat, 1986; Tans et al., 1990) are also compared with these results. The results show the importance of wave breaking effect. Key words: wind waves, friction velocity, C02 exchange coefficient, roughness length, wave age
