Morfoanatomi, Berat Basah Kotiledon dan Ketebalan Daun Kecambah Kacang Hijau (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) pada Naungan yang Berbeda
The functions of cotyledons are to do photosynthesis during the epigeal growth to absorb, and to transport nutrients from endosperm to the growing sprouts. The morphology and the anatomy changes of cotyledons prior to the blooming of the first leaf showed that physiologis changes occured inside them. The aims of this research are to find out the morpho anatomy of cotyledons and the growth of the leaves during sprouting phase of green peanut sprouts applied in three different environments. This research was conducted in the structural and functional Biology Laboratory in FSM undip dated May 2014-july 2014. The research design was CRD (CompletelyRandomisedDesign) and the data were analyzed using ANOVA which has 95% validity. This research applied three different treatments were Dark (D), Medium (M), Bright (B) three times. The parameters observed were the morpho anatomy, the wet weight of cotyledons, and the leaf thickness of green peanut sprouts in three different environments. The research showed that the morphology and the anatomy of cotyledons were descriptively different on day 4 and day 8, not only in parekim cells of each group but also in the chlorophyl level and the amylum inside them. The wet weight of cotyledons and the leaf thickness were extremely different too when the sprouts aged 8 days
Same same but different? A roundtable discussion on the philosophies, methodologies, and practicalities of conserving cultural heritage in Asia
'Same same but different'. A common expression in Asia. Initially perplexing, its simultaneous embrace of contradiction and similarity is a powerful statement. This simple phrase of four words conveys an acceptance of and tolerance for contradictions, differences, and variations within an understanding of the similarities which link and unite. It is applied to all manner of experiences and aspects of the tangible world. How is this relevant to a roundtable discussion on heritage conservation in Asia. With the addition of a single word, it aptly describes the current tension and discourse that is ongoing within the heritage conservation profession in Asia - 'same same but
different - how?' Over the past twenty years there has been much discussion and international debate regarding the boundaries and essence of heritage and these expanding definitions have profound implications for conservation. The inclusion of vernacular forms and the recognition of the inextricable link between places and objects and the socio-cultural interactions which are bound to and constitute them have challenged the heritage conservation sector to
rethink some of its foundation assumptions of what and how to conserve. A great deal of this debate is occurring in Asia and is evidenced in the number of regional conferences, charters and proclamations with some variation on this theme. It is a discourse that questions the applicability of 'standards' or notions of intemational best practice as they are introduced - or in some cases
imposed - in a wide variety of contexts throughout the region. The debate has also both been driven by and reinforced ideas among many that Asia needs a distinct set of philosophies and methodologies for the conservation of cultural heritage

The definitive version was published in Limnology and Oceanography 61 (2016): 806–824, doi:10.1002/lno.10255.Picophytoplankton, including photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPE) and unicellular cyanobacteria, are important contributors to plankton biomass and primary productivity. In this study, phytoplankton composition and rates of carbon fixation were examined across a large trophic gradient in the South East Pacific Ocean (SEP) using a suite of approaches: photosynthetic pigments, rates of 14C-primary productivity, and phylogenetic analyses of partial 18S rRNA genes PCR amplified and sequenced from flow cytometrically sorted cells. While phytoplankton >10 μm (diatoms and dinoflagellates) were prevalent in the upwelling region off the Chilean coast, picophytoplankton consistently accounted for 55–92% of the total chlorophyll a inventories and >60% of 14C-primary productivity throughout the sampling region. Estimates of rates of 14C-primary productivity derived from flow cytometric sorting of radiolabeled cells revealed that the contributions of PPE and Prochlorococcus to euphotic zone depth-integrated picoplankton productivity were nearly equivalent (ranging 36–57%) along the transect, with PPE comprising a larger share of picoplankton productivity than cyanobacteria in the well-lit (>15% surface irradiance) region compared with in the lower regions (1–7% surface irradiance) of the euphotic zone. 18S rRNA gene sequence analyses revealed the taxonomic identities of PPE; e.g., Mamiellophyceae (Ostreococcus) were the dominant PPE in the upwelling-influenced waters, while members of the Chrysophyceae, Prymnesiophyceae, Pelagophyceae, and Prasinophyceae Clades VII and IX flourished in the oligotrophic South Pacific Subtropical Gyre. Our results suggest that, despite low numerical abundance in comparison to cyanobacteria, diverse members of PPE are significant contributors to carbon cycling across biogeochemically distinct regions of the SEP.Support for this work derived from U.S. National Science Foundation grants to C-MORE (EF-0424599; DMK) and OCE-1241263 (MJC).

The Otoasobi Project: Improvising with Disability
This is the final version of the article. Available from the publisher via the link in this record.This video features excerpts from improvised performances of The Otoasobi Project of Kobe, Japan. The performance footage include "Oto-no-Shiro", "Oto-no-Umi", and "Oto-no-Kikiippatsu".This paper discusses a community-oriented, improvisation-focused initiative
known as The Otoasobi Project. First, I situate the project in relation to the felds of
free improvisation, “outsider music,” and music therapy. Then, in reference to
several video excerpts, I discuss The Otoasobi Project, examining the ways in which
individuals with learning disabilities, musicians, and music therapists have been
able to make improvised music with one another, forging an inclusive space for
musical and social interaction that has had both aesthetic and therapeutic benefits
Globalization and urban change
Intisari
Kota-kota besar memiliki peranan yang cukup penting di dalam proses perubahan, terutama yang berhubungan dengan globalisasi sekarang ini. Namun demikian, tidak berarti bahwa setiap orang memiliki kebudayaan yang sama di dalam proses ini, dan perbedaan-perbedaan yang muncul justru merupakan sisi yang lain dan globalisasi. Kenyataan ini disebabkan oleh proses nasionalisasi yang terjadi mengiringi globalisasi. Kalaulah globalisasi dianggap sebagai integrasi ke dalam suatu sistem dunia, maka di masa-masa kolonial pun banyak negara berkembang terintegrasi ke claim suatu sistem administratif dan eksploitatif.
Tulisan ini juga menolak penjelasan tentang era posmodernisme sekarang ini, dengan berpendapat bahwa modernitas dan rasionalitas belum sampai ke titik akhir dan pola hidup yang ada sekarang masih lebih bersifat modern.

The definitive version was published in Global Biogeochemical Cycles 29 (2015): 1145–1164, doi:10.1002/2015GB005141.Time-series observations are critical to understand the structure, function, and dynamics of marine ecosystems. The Hawaii Ocean Time-series program has maintained near-monthly sampling at Station ALOHA (22°45′N, 158°00′W) in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) since 1988 and has identified ecosystem variability over seasonal to interannual timescales. To further extend the temporal resolution of these near-monthly time-series observations, an extensive field campaign was conducted during July–September 2012 at Station ALOHA with near-daily sampling of upper water-column biogeochemistry, phytoplankton abundance, and activity. The resulting data set provided biogeochemical measurements at high temporal resolution and documents two important events at Station ALOHA: (1) a prolonged period of low productivity when net community production in the mixed layer shifted to a net heterotrophic state and (2) detection of a distinct sea-surface salinity minimum feature which was prominent in the upper water column (0–50 m) for a period of approximately 30 days. The shipboard observations during July–September 2012 were supplemented with in situ measurements provided by Seagliders, profiling floats, and remote satellite observations that together revealed the extent of the low productivity and the sea-surface salinity minimum feature in the NPSG.NOAA Climate Observation Division; National Science Foundation (NSF) Center for Microbial Oceanography: Research and Education (C-MORE) Grant Numbers: EF0424599, OCE-1153656, OCE-1260164; Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Marine Microbiology Investigator2016-02-1
