Monitoring and Assessment of Coral Reef in Spermonde Archipelago, South Sulawesi, IndonesiaJompa, Jamaluddin 04 1900 (has links)
<p> Four coral reef sites were observed in Spermonde Archipelago, off Southwest Sulawesi, Indonesia The sites were located at different distances from the mainland: Kayangan reef ('affected' site) is the closest and Samalona, Barang Lompo, and Kapoposan ('comparison' sites) are successively farther from the mainland and Ujung Pandang city. </p> <p> Coral cover, number of species at 3m and 1Om depths, and coral growth rates (Porites lobata) were observed to describe coral conditions. Environmental parameters suspended particulate matter (SPM), resuspended sediment, salinity, clarity, chlorophyll a, phosphate, nitrate, ammonium and o15N values ofcoral tissue (P. lobata) were also investigated to assess possible 'stress' factors on the reefs. </p> <p> Average coral cover at the 'affected' site was very low (14 %), compared to the other sites: Samalona (44.3 %), B. Lompo {47.2 %) and Kapoposan {66.6 %). Also, the lowest total number ofspecies occurred at Kayangan (42 spp.), compared to the other sites: Samalona {62 spp.), B. Lompo {71·spp.) and Kapoposan (80 spp.) </p> <p> Environmental parameters indicated that sedimentation and eutrophication (sewage) were the main 'stress' factors at Kayangan reef: while human disturbances such as fish bombing. anchoring. coral collection, and other activities affected Samalona and B. Lompo more. High coral cover and number of species at Kapoposan reef indicated fewer 'stress' factors. </p> <p> Coral growth rates showed a different trend from coral cover and total number of species. The highest coral growth rates occurred at B. Lompo (15.9 ± 0.8 mm yr-1) followed by Kayangan, Samalona and Kapoposan. Based on environmental parameters, it seemed that coral growth rates were higher at more eutrophic reefs, but slower at certain maximum critical nutrient values. </p> <p> δ^15 values of coral tissue found in this study are positively correlated with chlorophyll a, dissolved nutrients, and sedimentation rates. The high δ^(15)N values at Kayangan (8.03 ± 0.62 %) support the idea that this site was affected by human
waste and sewage. </p> / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

To Take Each Other : Bugis Practices of Gender, Sexuality and MarriageIdrus, Nurul Ilmi, nurulilmiidrus@hotmail.com January 2003 (has links)
This thesis is an ethnography of Bugis marriage. It is concerned with aspects of gender, sexuality and marriage in a bilateral, highly competitive, hierarchical society.
¶
I examine the fundamental concept of siri in relation to gender socialisation, courtship, the importance of kinship and status in marriage, how sexuality is regulated between the sexes, sex within marriage, and the dynamics of marriage, divorce, and reconciliation. The analysis considers how Islam combines with local custom (adat) in everyday practices, and how Bugis cultural specificities are affected within the national ideology of contemporary Indonesia.
¶
This ethnography explores an interpretation of Bugis social and sexual experience through examination of the construction of gender identities and how they are manifested in marriage. The thesis explores the complementarity of gender for the Bugis. Despite the ideal of feminine passivity, I demonstrate that women exercise agency in a number of circumstances, including how they manage the sexuality of their husbands, defending siri, the arrangement of marriage, remarrying, money management, divorce, and violent situations. I also examine the practices of illegal marriage (kawin liar) and illegal divorce (cerai liar) at local and personal levels. I analyse local and national debates on the legitimation of what is popularly known in Indonesia as marriage based on religion (nikah secara agama) as part of the examination of Bugis marriage and marital relations.
¶
My thesis contributes to the understanding of Bugis notions of sexuality, gender and social location, and how these interact with siri. I explore how and why violence occurs within marriage. I use a combination of informal interviews, participant observation and focus group discussions as well textual analysis of traditional manuscripts and incorporation of oral traditions.
