Consisting of five main islands (Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Papua) with 33 provincies, 30 smaller archipelagos, it has a total 17.508 islands of which about 6.000 are inhabited. It stretches 5.150 km between the Australian and Asian continental mainland and devides the Pacific and Indian Oceans at the Equator. The name Indonesia is composed of two Greek words: ‘Indos’ which means Indian and ‘nesos’ meaning islands. The capital city ofIndonesia is Jakarta. It's never enough to explore Indonesia in a short of time; while there are so many beautiful places of interests and so many exciting activities you can do. Let's visit Indonesia in diversity. SUMATRA : Sumatra is the fifth largest island in the world and Indonesia’s second largest. It’s an island of diverse attractions; from natural wonders to fascinating rituals and traditions belonging to several ethnic groups that make up the island’s indigenous population.

The landscape unfolds into majestic volcanoes, thick jungles, sculpted canyons, mighty rivers, waterfalls, exotic beaches and idyllic crater lakes, such as Toba, Maninjau and Kerinci. Sumatra is also famous for its wildlife. National Parks, reserves, and rehabilitation centers protect native animals, such as tigers, elephants, orang utans and crocodiles, as well as plants, such as the giant rafflesia.From one end of the island to the other, different ethnic groups keep alive distinct cultures.

Its geography and topography are as diverse as its culture. Unspoiled tropical beaches, jungles and active volcanoes border lush paddy fields, and crowded cities are surrounded by quiet villages. The island is divided into four provinces: Banten, West, Central and East, including the special territories of Jakarta, the country’s capital, and Yogyakarta, a 300 year-old Javanese sultanate. The western-most region of Java is under the administration of Banten province, and is the gateway to Sumatra. A coastal region, the culture and traditions of the Banten reflect Chinese and Arab influences brought by foreign traders. Off the coast in the Sunda Strait, smoldering Krakatau volcano belies the powerful force within. Banten’s historical sites are located close to one another and give a glimpse of the old Sultanate’s glory days. Many resorts, such as Anyer, Carita and Labuan, have developed along the coastline, and are the favorite holiday retreat for Jakartans.

Determining the bathymetry of lakes is important to assess the potential and the vulnerability of this valuable resource. The dilution and circulation of nutrients or pollutants is largely dependant on the volume of water and the incoming and outgoing fluxes, while the degree and frequency of mixing depends on the water depth. The bathymetry of lakes is also important to understand the spatial distribution of sediments, which in turn are valuable archives of natural hazards and environmental change.

Adapun cita-cita menulis buku ini, telah lama kami canangkan, sekitar tahun 2005 yang lalu. Namun karena sulitnya mengumpulkan materi-materi yang akan diajangkau, yakni begitu ekstensif dan luasnya bahan yang mesti dicapai, juga materi yang dikaji di bidang kesenian meliputi seni-seni: musik, tari, teater baik yang tradisional. Sementara latar belakang keilmuan kami pun, baik di strata satu dan dua, umumnya adalah terkonsentasi di bidang etnomusikologi dan kajian seni pertunjukan yang juga dengan minat utama musik etnik. Hanya seorang saja yang berlatar belakang akademik antropologi tari. Selain itu, tim kami ini ada dua orang yang berlatar belakang pendidikan strata dua antropologi dan sosiologi. Oleh karenanya latar belakang keilmuan ini, sangat mewarnai apa yang kami tulis dalam buku ini. Adapun materi dalam buku ini memuat tentang konsep apa itu masyarakat, kesenian, dan Indonesia—serta terminologi-terminologi yang berkaitan dengannya seperti: kebudayaan, pranata sosial, dan kelompok sosial.

  • Challenge Your Adrenaline by Taking One of These Volcano Indonesia Tours
    Challenge Your Adrenaline by Taking One of These Volcano Indonesia Tours As an archipelago, Indonesia lays on the meeting of several tectonic plates. Geologically, it is the reason why Indonesia has many volcanoes stretched from the West to the East. Though it sounds worrying to remember how dangerous a volcano can be, the area can be the perfect place to explore instead. Volcanoes are known for its fertile land and scenic view. Apparently, volcano Indonesia tour can be found across the country and below are six of the best destinations. 1. Mount Rinjani, Lombok Lombok Island on the Eastern Indonesia has the magnificent Mount Rinjani and its craters. This active volcano has three craters from its past eruption called the Kelimutu Lake. Mount Rinjani is the second highest volcano in Indonesia after Mount Kerinci in Sumatera. The lake has a magical view because each crater has different colors throughout the day. From afar, each of the craters would be seen to have green, blue, and red color. The local people have their own legend of the color of the craters. However, the color change might potentially be the result of the change in oxidation and reduction of the fluid in the craters. It may take around two days and one night to climb the mountain seriously and professionally. However, there are Indonesia tour packages that will offer an easier hiking option for beginners. 2. Mount Batur, Bali Mount Batur in Bali might be the easiest volcano to climb in the Indonesia tour list. In just less than three hours, you can get to the top of this active volcano.

    POLA KOMUNIKASI PEMANGKU JABATAN KERATON KASEPUHAN DENGAN PEJABAT PEMERINTAH KOTA CIREBON Skripsi Diajukan untuk Memenuhi Persyaratan Memperoleh Gelar Sarjana Sosial (S.Sos) Oleh: AHMAD FAJAR NUGRAHA NIM: 1111051000033 JURUSAN KOMUNIKASI DAN PENYIARAN ISLAM FAKULTAS ILMU DAKWAH DAN ILMU KOMUNIKASI UNIVERSITAS ISLAM NEGERI SYARIF HIDAYATULLAH JAKARTA 1438 H./2017 M. ABSTRAK Ahmad Fajar Nugraha Pola Komunikasi Pemangku Jabatan Keraton Kasepuhan Dengan Pejabat Pemerintah Kota Cirebon Cirebon merupakan suatu daerah yang berada di pesisir Jawa Barat. Sebagai salah satu daerah tertua di Indonesia, Cirebon pun memiliki sejarah yang cukup panjang. Hal ini bisa kita lihat dari warisan cagar budaya berupa Keraton yang hingga saat ini masih ada dan turut memegang peranan penting pada masyarakat Cirebon, utamanya perihal masalah budaya dan kebudayaan. Dengan masih berdiri dan berperannya Keraton membuat Cirebon memiliki dua model pemerintahan, Keraton Kasepuhan sebagai pemerintahan kultural dan Pemerintah Kota sebagai pemerintahan struktural. Keberadaan dua pemerintahan tersebut tentunya sangat rentan akan konflik jika tidak dilakukan upaya pemeliharaan hubungan yang baik. Upaya pemeliharaan hubungan yang baik tersebut mutlak dilakukan demi kemajuan Cirebon secara struktur dan infrastruktur. Berdasarkan pemaparan di atas tersebut ditemukan rumusan masalah sebagai berikut: Bagaimana pola komunikasi pemangku jabatan Keraton Kasepuhan dengan pejabat Pemerintah Kota? Bagaimana pola komunikasi pejabat Pemerintah kota dengan pemangku jabatan Keraton Kasepuhan? Metode penelitian yang digunakan kali ini adalah penelitian kualitatif. Di mana peneliti berupaya untuk menelaah sebanyak mungkin data mengenai subjek yang diteliti. Adapun teknik pengumpulan data yang berupa observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Teori yang digunakan adalah interaksionisme simbolik yang dicetuskan oleh George Herbert Mead. Dalam hal ini individu bergerak atau merespon stimulus bergantung pada simbol yang digunakan dan pemaknaan dari simbol tersebut.

  • Phytoplankton and the Correlation to Primary Productivity, Chlorophyll-A
    Phytoplankton and the correlation to primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and nutrients in Lake Maninjau, West Sumatra, Indonesia 1Jabang Nurdin, 1Desra Irawan, 2Hafrijal Syandri, 1Nofrita, 1Rizaldi 1 Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Andalas University, West Sumatra, Indonesia; 2 Faculty of Fisheries, Bung Hatta University, West Sumatra, Indonesia. Corresponding author: J. Nurdin, [email protected] Abstract. Intensive freshwater fish farming using floating-net-cages in Lake Maninjau has been conducted since 1992. Fish farming intensification can reduce water quality and affect aquatic biotic communities. This research aims to study the impact of floating-net-cages activities on the phytoplankton communities, and its correlation to primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and water quality of Lake Maninjau. Five representative sampling sites from Lake Maninjau were chosen purposively. Primary productivity, chlorophyll-a, and water quality were analyzed using the oxygen method, chlorophyll extract from autotrophic organisms and the tropical index respectively, then all parameters were analyzed using principal component analysis (PCA) to present the pattern. Water quality parameters such as temperature, pH, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), light intensity, dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total P, and total N were also measured. From the results, we found 17 species of phytoplankton from 5 classes. Phytoplankton abundance ranged from 1980 to 3540 individual L-1, with the lowest abundance found in Sigiran Site (incubation zone) and the highest in Kubu Baru Site (surface waters). The biomass estimation value of chlorophyll-a ranged from 0.415 to 0.104 mg C m-3, with the highest value found on the surface water in Sigiran Site and the lowest in incubation zone in Tanjung Sani Site.
