ANALYSIS OF EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION PATTERNS USING SOFTWARE OF MIKE 21 HDFM-MT IN THE KAPUAS MURUNG RIVER MOUTH CENTRAL KALIMANTAN PROVINCE
Full text linkThe public transportation system along the Kapuas River, Central Kalimantan are highly depend on water transportation. Natural condition gives high distribution to the smoothness of the vessel traffic along the Kapuas Murung River. The local government has planned to build specific port for stock pile at the Batanjung which would face with natural phenomena of sedimentation and erosion at a river mouth. Erosion and sedimentation could be predicted not only by field observing but it is also needed hypotheses using software analysis. Hydrodynamics and transport sediment models by Mike 21 HDFM-MT software will be applied to describe the position of sedimentations and erosions at a river mouth. Model is assumed by two different river conditions, wet and dry seasons. Based on two types of conditions the model would also describe the river flow and sediment transport at spring and neap periods. Tidal fluctuations and a river current as field observation data would be verified with the result of model simulations. Based on field observation and simulation results could be known the verification of tidal has an 89.74% correlation while the river current correlation has 43.6%. Moreover, based on the simulation the sediment patterns in flood period have a larger area than ebb period. Furthermore, the erosion patterns dominantly occur during wet and dry season within ebb period. Water depths and sediment patterns should be considered by the vessels that will use the navigation channel at a river mouth.

Penduduk yang berada di sepanjang Sungai Kapuas sangat bergantung pada transportasi air. Kelancaran lalu lintas kapal di sepanjang Sungai Kapuas Murung sangat tergantung dengan kondisi alam yang terjadi. Rencana pemerintah daerah yang akan membangun pelabuhan khusus batubara di Batanjung akan berhadapan dengan fenomena alam yang umum terjadi di muara sungai yaitu sedimentasi dan erosi. Prediksi akan terjadinya sedimentasi dan erosi tidak hanya ditunjang pengamatan lapangan namun juga perlu dilakukan dengan melakukan hipotesa menggunakan bantuan analisis software. Penelitian ini akan menggambarkan posisi sedimentasi dan erosi di sekitar muara dengan pemodelan hidrodinamika dan transport sedimen yang menggunakan Software MIKE 21 HDFM-MT. Model dibuat dengan mengasumsikan kondisi sungai pada saat musim hujan dan musim kemarau. Berdasarkan dua kondisi tersebut model akan menggambarkan sebaran arus dan sebaran sedimen untuk periode bulan baru dan perbani. Data lapangan pasang surut dan kecepatan arus akan diverifikasi ke hasil simulasi model. Berdasarkan data hasil pengukuran lapangan dan data hasil simulasi model maka dapat diketahui bahwa verifikasi nilai pasang surut menunjukkan korelasi sebesar 89.74% sedangkan verifikasi nilai arus sebesar 43.6%. Selanjutnya dari hasil simulasi didapatkan bahwa pada saat pasang, gambaran posisi sedimentasi banyak terdapat pada bagian timur muara sungai dengan penyebaran cukup luas sedangkan pada kondisi surut area lebih sedikit. Selanjutnya gambaran daerah yang tererosi banyak terjadi pada saat air surut baik untuk musim hujan maupun kemarau. Kapal yang akan menggunakan muara sebagai alur pelayaran harus mempertimbangkan kondisi kedalaman air yang ada dan juga pola sedimentasi yang terjadi.

METODA PSEUDO-GRAVITY DALAM ANALISIS KELURUSAN DAN PATAHAN DI SEKITAR TINGGIAN ASAHAN, PERAIRAN SELAT MALAKA.
Full text linkMelalui teori medan dalam metoda magnetik dan gaya berat, ambiguitas yang muncul merupakan suatu faktor yang menyulitkan dalam penerapan kedua metoda ini. Terlebih pada penerapan metoda magnetik yang memiliki efek polaritas positif dan negatif. Beberapa teknik dan metoda telah diterapkan dalam melakukan analisis dan pengolahan data anomali magnet untuk mengatasi masalah ambigutas ini dengan tujuan mempermudah dalam melakukan interpretasi. Salah satu metodanya yaitu transformasi data anomali magnet ke dalam data pseudo-gravity. Metoda ini akan diterapkan dalam analisis dan pengolahan data anomali magnet di sekitar Tinggian Asahan dalam hal ini untuk menganalisis kelurusan dan patahan yang muncul di area ini. Hasil transformasi akan dibandingkan dengan data skunder berupa ketebalan sedimen dan patahan di area yang sama. Hasil penerapan metoda ini memperlihatkan adanya indikasi kelurusan ataupun patahan muncul, yang tidak terlihat jelas pada data aslinya yaitu anomali magnet.

Through potential field theory in magnetic and gravity methods, ambiguity that presented is the difficult factor in the application of both methods. Moreover the application of magnetic method which involve the effect of positive and negative polarity are more complicated. Some techniques and methods have been used to overcome problem of ambiguity in order to make easier interpretation. One of the techniques is the transformation from anomaly magnetic to pseudo-gravity data. This method will be used within analysis and processing anomaly magnetic data at Asahan Arch to analyze lineaments and faults that appear in this area. Transformation result will be compared with another data which is secondary data about sediment thickness and fault at the same area. This technique shows that indication of fault more clearly than the original data or anomaly magnetic data.

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
ABNORMAL MICROFAUNAL SHELLS AS EARLY WARNING INDICATOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES SURROUNDING BERAU DELTA, EAST KALIMANTAN
Full text linkA total of 25 sediment samples from surrounding Berau Delta, East Kalimantan have been used for microfaunal study. It is found some abnormal shells of ostracoda, foraminifera and other forms with darkish shells (black, dark green and dark brown). These forms were analyzed using SEM-Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX or EDS) to know their chemical composition. The result shows that these abnormal forms composed of CaO, SiO2, C, FeO, Al2O3, K2O, and small amount of Na2O and Cl. They may derive from different sources: CaO and MgO from neutralized component during the environmental management to handle the Acid Mine Drainage (AMD). The other components may derive from coal ash during combustion process or other activities. From this result, the small amount (less than 5%) of abnormal shells may be used as early warning indicator of environmental changes in the study area.

Sebanyak 25 sampel sedimen dari sekitar Delta Berau, Kalimantan Timur telah digunakan untuk studi mikrofauna. Ditemukan cangkang abnormal dari ostracoda, foraminifera dan spesimen bentuk lain dengan cangkang kegelapan (hitam, hijau tua dan coklat tua) Bentuk-bentuk ini kemudian dianalisa menggunakan SEM-Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX or EDS) untuk mengetahui komposisi kimiawinya. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa cangkang-cangkang mikrofauna yang abnormal ini mengandung CaO, SiO2, C, FeO, Al2O3, K2O, dan sedikit kandungan Na2O dan Cl. Komponen ini kemungkinan mempunyai sumber yang berbeda: CaO dan MgO mungkin berasal dari bahan penetral selama pengelolaan lingkungan untuk mengatasi air asam tambang (AMD). Komponen lain berasal dari abu batubara saat proses pembakaran atau aktivitas lain. Jumlah cangkang abnormal yang sedikit (kurang dari 5%) ini kemungkinan dapat digunakan sebagai indikator peringatan dini adanya perubahan lingkungan di daerah penelitian.

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
