  • Estimation of Sea Current Energy Potential by Using Calculation

Dr. Djundjunan No. 236, Bandung, 40174 Corresponding author : [email protected] (Received 27 February 2017; in revised from 04 August 2017; accepted 02 November 2017) ABSTRACT: Toyapakeh Strait has a fairly strong ocean current velocity with a velocity between 0.5 m/s – 3.2 m/s. The duration of the strong current (V> 0.5 m/s) ranges from 13-22 hours per day. The location of the strong current occurrence is located to the east of Nusa Lembongan Island, precisely at the stationary current measurement location. Vertical distribution of the direction and velocity currents at this location are not uniform from the top to the bottom, especially in the water column depths of 2 m, 4 m and 6 m, whereas at the water column depths of 8 m to 16 m are relatively uniform. Calculation results of potential electrical power by using the horizontal axis turbine model with a capacity of 35.9 kW (Rite Verdan), 100 kW (Tocardo DD702HT) and 250 kW (Tocardo DD1001HT) show that all of the values have the optimal electric powers, especially during the spring tide, whereas during the neap tide only the turbine with a capacity of 35.9 kW can retrieved an optimal electrical power.

A total of 112 species was recorded, including six of Bum's ten endemic species. Four of the endemic species, Pnoniturus mada, Monarcha loricatus, Rhipidura superflua and Zosterops buruensis were found to be quite common, but Lichmera deningeri and Cworacina fortis are considered to be uncommon or rare. The mountains or Burn from where Madanga ruficollis and Rhinomyias addita have previously beea collected were not visited. Concern is expressed concerning the status of two endemic parrots, Charmosyna toxopei and Tanypiathus gramineus, which were not conclusively recorded and which appear to have always been rare. Six species were recorded for the first tune on Buru. Introduction The Manchester Indonesia Islands Expedition visited the island of Buru between 8 Nov and 10 Dec 1989. The aim of the expedition was to obtain data related to the conservation of bird faunas. The results of the analysis of data on the ecology and habitat preferences of the bird species will appear elsewhere. The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic list of birds recorded on Bum by the expedition, and to publish notes collected for some of the species on moult, nests and vocalisations. During the last sixty years.

Abstract Far Eastern Curlew Numenius madagascariensis (Linnaeus, 1766) is Endangered species confined in East Asian Australasian Flyway (EAAF) sites. We compiled and summarized all historical numbers of Far Eastern Curlew in Banyuasin Peninsula, South Sumatra, Indonesia. A total of 30 records were documented from 1984 to 2020. The largest number is 2,620 individuals during the migration period in 1988. Unfortunately, the largest number drop to 1,750 individuals in wintering period in 2008, and then drop to 850 individuals in 2019. The numbers indicate that the population decline by up to 62% in the last 35 years (1984 to 2019).

    CHAPTER II THE DESCRIPTION OF PLASTIC DUMPS ISSUES IN BALI’S OCEAN AND COASTLINES On this chapter, the writer would focus on the explanation about how plastic dumps in Bali, Indonesia became one of important issues and concern. The writer argued that was very needed to show a short information about Bali and the plastic dumps issues there. The existence of plastic dumps has caused my responds from both domestic and international community. Many people there have just realized that they are living in danger and this issue has to be risen and problem solving is necessary. A. Bali Geographical Location Bali is one of islands in Indonesia that is very popular among foreign tourists as a favorite destination to visit. Not only among foreign tourists, Bali is also a favorite place for domestic tourists. Enchanting beaches, cool mountains and a culture that was always preserved are attractions that makes tourists always wanted to come back. Bali Island is located between Java Island and West Nusa Tenggara Island. The island has an area of 5,636km². (Geost, 2019) The island of Bali in the east is bordered by the Lombok Strait and West Nusa Tenggara Island. In the West Bali is bordered by the Bali Strait and East Java Province, in the north it borders the Bali Sea and while in the south it borders the Indonesian Ocean. Bali is known as a tropical paradise in Indonesia. Bali's climate is a tropical climate where the change of seasons was influenced by monsoons that change every 6 months. Just like the season that occured in Indonesia in general, the Province of Bali experienced a rainy season in October-April and the dry season started from April to October.

  • Coral Reef Habitat Changing Assessment of Derawan Islands, East Kalimantan, Using Remote Sensing Data
    CORAL REEF HABITAT CHANGING ASSESSMENT OF DERAWAN ISLANDS, EAST KALIMANTAN, USING REMOTE SENSING DATA MARLINA NURLIDIASARI' AND SYARIF BUDHIMAN2 Abstract Coral reefs in Dcrawan Islands are astonishingly rich in the marine diversity. However, these reefs are threatened by humans. Destructive fishing methods, such as trawl, blasting and cyanide fishing practise, are found to be the main cause of this degradation. The coral reefs habitat reduction is also caused by tourism activities due to trampling over the reef and charging organic and anorganic wastes. The capabilities of satellite remote sensing techniques combined with field data collection have been assessed for the coral reef mapping and the change detection of Derawan Island. Multi-temporal Landsat TM & ETM images (1991 & 2002) have been used. Comparison of the classified images of 1991 and 2002 shows spatial changes of the habitat. The changes were in accordance with the known changes in the reef conditions. The analysis shows the decrease of the coral reef and patchy seagrass percentage, while the increase of the algae composite and patchy reef percentage. Keywords : Coral Reef, Change Detection, Landsat-TM, Derawan I. Introduction and storm events and a rise of the seawater temperature. The health of the world's coral reefs is Information on the health of coral reefs in serious decline.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2018 ABSTRACT Derawan Island in eastern Indonesia exemplifies how the designation of a new development category called a “Tourism Village” might not be optimal for a small island because of some issues which may be correctable. Derawan was historically a fishing village. Located in the Coral Triangle, the island is known for its unique biodiversity and world-class diving, and today the island relies on marine tourism as its primary livelihood.
