    TPA Cahaya Kencana Kabupaten Banjar sudah menerapkan sistem sanitary landfill sejak tahun 2014 dengan luasan eksisting sebesar 8.089,73 m2. Ketinggian lapisan sampah eksisting setinggi 10 meter. Kondisi lahan sanitary landfill TPA Cahaya Kencana yang hampir penuh perlu adanya suatu alat pengambilan keputusan, untuk melakukan rehabilitasi TPA atau penutupan TPA permanen. Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan yaitu mengevaluasi aspek teknis dan lingkungan Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir (TPA) Cahaya Kencana Kabupaten Banjar berdasarkan penilaian Indeks Risiko/ Risk Index (RI). Melakukan analisis SWOT kelembagaan UPTD Pengelolaan Persampahan dan Air Limbah PPK-BLUD Intan Hijau untuk menentukan strategi dalam meningkatkan pendapatan dan jasa layanan persampahan. Serta menentukan potensi pendapatan dan tarif yang sesuai untuk menutupi biaya investasi, operasional dan pemeliharaan TPA Cahaya Kencana. Metode penelitian yang digunakan untuk aspek teknis dan lingkungan menggunakan tabel perangkat penilaian indeks risiko lingkungan. Sedangkan aspek kelembagaan akan dianalisis menggunakan SWOT untuk mendapatkan strategi dalam peningkatan jasa pelayanan persampahan. Aspek finansial akan dianalisis menggunakan nilai Net Present Value (NPV), Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR), dan Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) sehingga didapat potensi pendapatan pelayanan sampah yang dapat menutupi biaya investasi, operasional dan pemeliharaan TPA. Hasil penilaian indeks risiko dengan metode IRBA didapatkan nilai 524,007 dengan kategori evaluasi bahaya sedang, sehingga TPA Cahaya Kencana dapat diteruskan dan direhabilitasi menjadi lahan urug terkendali secara bertahap. Analisis SWOT pada kelembagaan UPTD Pengelolaan Persampahan dan Air Limbah PPK-BLUD Intan Hijau berada dalam kuadran I yang merupakan strategi ekspansi. Strategi yang dikembangkan adalah dengan memaksimalkan kekuatan yang dimiliki dan ditunjang dengan peluang-peluang yang diberikan. RAB penutupan sanitary landfill sebesar Rp 9.083.554.494 dan biaya O & M sebesar Rp 2.612.870.772 pertahun dan meningkat 1%. Maka didapat nilai NPV 1 sebesar (Rp 18.036.515.000); NPV 2 sebesar (Rp 17.492.005.000); BCR 1 adalah 0,4; BCR 2 adalah 0,38 dan IRR sebesar 78,25%, sehingga kegiatan penutupan sanitary landfill ini dapat dikatakan tidak layak secara aspek finansial. Namun dapat menjadi layak jika tarif minimal yang diterapkan rata-rata sebesar Rp 27.000. ================================================================================================================================= Cahaya Kencana landfill site in Banjar District has implemented sanitary landfill system since 2014 with existing area of 8,089.73 m2. The height of the existing garbage layer is 10 meters tall. Land conditions Sanitary Landfill at Cahaya Kencana site almost full need of a decision making tool, to conduct a landfill rehabilitation or closure of permanent landfill. This research aims to evaluate the technical aspects and environment of Cahaya Kencana landfill in Banjar District based on the risk index (RI) assessment. Conducting institutional SWOT analysis of Technical Implementation Unit for the management and waste water of PPK-BLUD Intan Hijau to determine the strategy to increase the income and service of the disposal. As well as determining the appropriate income potential and tariff to cover the cost of investment, operational and maintenance of Cahaya Kencana Landfill. The research methods used for technical and environmental aspects use the device table for Environmental Risk Index assessment. While the institutional aspect will be analyzed using SWOT to obtain a strategy in the improvement of waste service. Financial aspects will be analyzed using the value of Net Present Value (NPV), Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR), and Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) so that the potential waste service revenue can cover the cost of investment, operational and Maintenance of TPA. The result of risk index assessment by IRBA method obtained 524,007 with the category of moderate hazard evaluation, so that Cahaya Kencana Landfill can be forwarded and rehabilitated into controlled landfill gradually. SWOT analysis on the institutional Technical Implementation Unit for the management and waste water of PPK-BLUD Intan Hijau is within the quadrant I (first) of expansion strategy. The strategy developed is to maximize the power that is owned and supported by the opportunities given. The cost of closes sanitary landfill is Rp Rp 9.083.554.494 and costs O & M of Rp 2.612.870.772 per year and increased by 1%. Therefore obtained value of NPV 1 (Rp 18.036.515.000); NPV 2 amounting to (Rp 17.492.005.000); BCR 1 is 0,4; BCR 2 is 0,38 and IRR at 78,25%, so that this sanitary landfill closure activity can be said to be not worthy of financial aspects. However it can be feasible if the minimum tariff applied on average of Rp 27.000

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The 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

    “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 link
    We 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 link
    We 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

    We 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

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
