  • Ocean Wave Characteristics in Indonesian Waters for Sea Transportation Safety and Planning
    IPTEK, The Journal for Technology and Science, Vol. 26, No. 1, April 2015 19 Ocean Wave Characteristics in Indonesian Waters for Sea Transportation Safety and Planning Roni Kurniawan1 and Mia Khusnul Khotimah2 AbstractThis study was aimed to learn about ocean wave characteristics and to identify times and areas with vulnerability to high waves in Indonesian waters. Significant wave height of Windwaves-05 model output was used to obtain such information, with surface level wind data for 11 years period (2000 to 2010) from NCEP-NOAA as the input. The model output data was then validated using multimission satellite altimeter data obtained from Aviso. Further, the data were used to identify areas of high waves based on the high wave’s classification by WMO. From all of the processing results, the wave characteristics in Indonesian waters were identified, especially on ALKI (Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lanes). Along with it, which lanes that have high potential for dangerous waves and when it occurred were identified as well. The study concluded that throughout the years, Windwaves-05 model had a magnificent performance in providing ocean wave characteristics information in Indonesian waters. The information of height wave vulnerability needed to make a decision on the safest lanes and the best time before crossing on ALKI when the wave and its vulnerability is likely low. Throughout the years, ALKI II is the safest lanes among others since it has been identified of having lower vulnerability than others. The knowledge of the wave characteristics for a specific location is very important to design, plan and vessels operability including types of ships and shipping lanes before their activities in the sea.

    D.T.C.F. Kütüphanesi Ankara Üniversitesi DİL VE TARİH COĞRAFYA Fakültesi Dergisi Cilt XX Sayı: 3-4 Temmuz - Aralık 1962 KIBRIS MÜŞAHEDELERİ1 Prof. Dr. Cevat R. GÜRSOY Bundan seksenbeş yıl önce Osmanlı İmparatorluğunun bir parçası iken, padişahın hükümranlık hakkı mahfuz kalmak üzere fiilî idaresi İngiltere'ye terkedilen, fakat 16 Ağustos 1960 tarihinden beri müstakil bir devlet haline gelmiş bulunan Kıbrıs adası, bugünün en çok ilgi toplayan konularından birini teşkil etmektedir. Muhtelif meslekten insanların gittikçe daha yakından meşgul olduğu bu eski yurt parçasına, ötedenberi Akdeniz memleketleri üzerinde: çalış­ tığımız için hususî bir alâka duymakta idik. Bu sebeple 1959 ve 1960 yaz tatillerinde Kıbrıs'a giderek onu yakından tanımaya karar verdik ve bütün adayı dolaşarak coğrafî müşahedeler yaptık. Bu müşahedelere imkân veren seyahatlerin yapılmasında maddî ve manevî müzaherette bulunmuş olan Fakültemiz Dekanlığı ile Ülkeler Coğrafyası Kürsü Profesörlüğüne, Kıbrıs Türk Kurumları Federasyonu Başkanlığına, Kıbrıs Türk Maarif Dairesi Müdür ve elemanlarına, orada yakın ilgilerini gördüğümüz eski ve yeni öğrencilerimize ve nihayet misafirperver Kıbrıslı Türk kardeşlerimize teşekkürü, yerine getirilmesi icabeden bir vazife sayarız. Kıbrıs hakkında yazılmış birçok eser ve makale vardır. Bunlar arasında seyahatnamelerle tarihi, siyasi, arkeolojik ve jeolojik çalışmalar zikredilmeye değer. 1929 senesinden evvel neşredilmiş olan 1500 den fazla eser, makale, 1) Türk Coğrafya Kurumu tarafından Konya'da tertip edilmiş olan XIII. Coğrafya Meslek Haftasında, 12 Kasım 1959 tarihinde verilen münakaşalı konferansın metni olup 1960 da ya­ pılan yeni müşahedelerle kısmen tadil ve tevsi edilmiştir. Ayrıca 1963 yılı Ocak ayında Alman­ ya'nın Hamburg Coğrafya Cemiyetinde, Kiel Üniversitesinde ve son olarak Samsun'da tertip edilen XV. Coğrafya Meslek Haftasında 1 Haziran 1963 tarihinde Kıbrıs hakkında konferanslar verilmiştir.

  • UK Overseas Territories
    INFORMATION PAPER United Kingdom Overseas Territories - Toponymic Information United Kingdom Overseas Territories (UKOTs), also known as British Overseas Territories (BOTs), have constitutional and historical links with the United Kingdom, but do not form part of the United Kingdom itself. The Queen is the Head of State of all the UKOTs, and she is represented by a Governor or Commissioner (apart from the UK Sovereign Base Areas that are administered by MOD). Each Territory has its own Constitution, its own Government and its own local laws. The 14 territories are: Anguilla; Bermuda; British Antarctic Territory (BAT); British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT); British Virgin Islands; Cayman Islands; Falkland Islands; Gibraltar; Montserrat; Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands; Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha; South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; Turks and Caicos Islands; UK Sovereign Base Areas. PCGN recommend the term ‘British Overseas Territory Capital’ for the administrative centres of UKOTs. Production of mapping over the UKOTs does not take place systematically in the UK. Maps produced by the relevant territory, preferably by official bodies such as the local government or tourism authority, should be used for current geographical names. National government websites could also be used as an additional reference. Additionally, FCDO and MOD briefing maps may be used as a source for names in UKOTs. See the FCDO White Paper for more information about the UKOTs. ANGUILLA The territory, situated in the Caribbean, consists of the main island of Anguilla plus some smaller, mostly uninhabited islands. It is separated from the island of Saint Martin (split between Saint-Martin (France) and Sint Maarten (Netherlands)), 17km to the south, by the Anguilla Channel.

Seismic data interpretation results show the pengendapan sedimen. Hasil penafsiran data seismik gradation and sediment facies cycles in accordance with menunjukan gradasi dan siklus fasies sedimen sesuai the episode of tectonic activities, which is characterized by dengan episod aktivitas tektonik yang dicirikan oleh the avalanche of the Seram Trough base-of slopes longsoran material lereng Palung Seram. Data seismik materials. Seismic data reveal more than 1250 meters menunjukan lebih dari 1250 meter sedimen secara akustik acoustically chaotic to laminated, indicate fine-grained kaotik hingga berlapis, mencirikan sedimen berbutir sediments between slumps at its base of slope and fine halus antara slam pada lereng bagian bawah dan sedimen marine sediments at the trough floor. Thus, it suggests that marin halus pada lantai palung. Dengan demikian, diduga the Seram Trough is in the process of differential vertical bahwa Palung Seram berada dalam proses pergerakan movement causing depositional modification due to the vertikal diferensial yang menyebabkan terjadinya accretionary prism growths.

  • The Yard Town Walk
    RITAG E E H The Yard O N TAP town walk Explore the history of St Helier with this guided walk which starts and ends at The Yard at Jersey Museum & Art Gallery. Approximately 30 to 40 minutes. Leave the Museum by the side gate and exit into Ordnance Yard. Ordnance Yard Ordnance Yard is one of the few remaining cobbled lanes and yards that were typical of St Helier around 1800. ‘The Yard’ occupies space within a 19th century warehouse built to serve the historic harbour of St Helier. At one time, ships would have been moored in the area in front of the Museum but the land was reclaimed in the 19th Jersey Museum century and a new harbour was built in the current location. Walk around the back of the Museum and pause at the bottom of the long flight of granite steps. High above you can just see the top of the Fort Regent signal station where a series of flags and symbols were used to signal the arrival and departure of vessels and also to warn of storms. This is a reminder of a time when the Island was completely dependent on the sea for the movement of people and goods. Climb the steps to Pier Road. On 9 May 1945 a party of British liberating soldiers climbed these steps to reach Fort Regent where they took down the Nazi flag of the defeated German occupying force and replaced it with the Union flag. Turn left at the top of the steps and walk down Pier Road.

The Company’s forma- tion was an entrepreneurial move by the founders of Joannou & Paraskevaides Ltd., a successful construction company operating in Cyprus since 1941.The newly-formed international company grew steadily to become the dynamic organization it is today. After successfully completing its first overseas projects in North Africa in the 1960’s J&P rapidly expanded into the Gulf during the 1970’s. Over the next thirty years the Company broadened its operations throughout the world to become a global enterprise with a range of activities to meet the challenges of the industry. Today, J&P has a dynamic presence in the Middle East, Africa, the Asian Sub- continent and Europe. The core of the J&P Group’s operations is the Gulf Area and the GCC countries, with landmark projects in Saudi Arabia, the Sultanate of Oman, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, with regional offices in Riyadh, Jeddah, Muscat, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha. During the mid-1980’s the company entered the Oil & Gas sector and has since built an impressive portfolio of successfully completed projects in Libya, Saudi Arabia and Cyprus in the upstream and downstream sectors, as well as in power generation.
