PERAN TPA DALAM MENGEMBANGKAN LINGKUNGAN YANG BERSIH DI KABUPATEN CIAMIS
No full textPengelolaan sampah merupakan salah satu tantangan utama dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang bersih dan sehat di tingkat kabupaten. Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir (TPA) berperan penting dalam menampung dan mengolah sampah, namun efektivitasnya sangat dipengaruhi oleh aspek teknis, kebijakan pemerintah, dan partisipasi masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran TPA dalam mengembangkan lingkungan yang bersih di Kabupaten Ciamis, mengidentifikasi kendala yang dihadapi, serta mengevaluasi upaya yang telah dilakukan oleh pengelola dan masyarakat. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan pengumpulan data melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi lapangan, dan telaah dokumen terkait pengelolaan TPA. Analisis data dilakukan secara interaktif melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa TPA di Kabupaten Ciamis telah menerapkan sistem controlled landfill yang mampu mengurangi dampak negatif sampah terhadap lingkungan, tetapi masih menghadapi keterbatasan infrastruktur dan anggaran. Partisipasi masyarakat melalui Bank Sampah, pengolahan sampah organik menjadi kompos atau eco-enzyme, serta kegiatan edukasi lingkungan terbukti membantu mengurangi volume sampah yang masuk ke TPA. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa keberhasilan TPA dalam menciptakan lingkungan bersih sangat bergantung pada sinergi antara pengelolaan teknis, kebijakan pemerintah, dan partisipasi aktif masyarakat. Oleh karena itu, penguatan kapasitas TPA, peningkatan infrastruktur pendukung, serta edukasi masyarakat secara berkelanjutan menjadi strategi penting untuk meningkatkan efektivitas pengelolaan sampah di Kabupaten Ciamis
PENGEMBANGAN SITUS SEJARAH JAMBANSARI CIAMIS SEBAGAI SUMBER KEARIFAN LOKAL
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji potensi dan tantangan pengelolaan Situs Jambansari sebagai sumber kearifan lokal yang berperan dalam memperkuat identitas budaya masyarakat Kabupaten Ciamis. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik observasi lapangan, wawancara mendalam dengan tokoh masyarakat, pengelola situs, serta aparat pemerintah daerah, dan analisis dokumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Situs Jambansari tidak hanya dipandang sebagai peninggalan sejarah fisik, tetapi juga sebagai warisan budaya yang sarat dengan nilai moral, religius, dan sosial. Nilai-nilai tersebut tercermin dalam berbagai tradisi, ritual, dan praktik sosial seperti upacara adat yang menekankan kebersamaan, gotong royong, penghormatan kepada leluhur, serta harmoni antara manusia, alam, dan Sang Pencipta. Di sisi lain, penelitian ini juga menemukan adanya sejumlah kendala, antara lain keterbatasan fasilitas dan infrastruktur, rendahnya partisipasi generasi muda, serta kurang optimalnya program revitalisasi akibat keterbatasan anggaran dan sumber daya manusia. Dengan demikian, diperlukan strategi pengelolaan yang lebih terarah, melibatkan partisipasi lintas generasi, serta sinergi antara masyarakat, pemerintah daerah, dan akademisi untuk mewujudkan pelestarian sekaligus pemanfaatan situs secara berkelanjutan
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
