This study aims to develop an expedited flood susceptibility model with remote sensing data that can be effectively utilized for a large catchment area. We apply the model to the Upper Solo River Watershed in Indonesia. The model incorporates the hydrological attributes of the watershed obtained from remote sensing data, including elevation, slope, flow accumulation, proximity to rivers, rainfall, drainage density, topographic wetness index, land use land cover, normalized difference vegetation index, soil moisture, and land surface curvature. The flood susceptibility criteria are generated using remote sensing datasets such as The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), Sentinel 2 Multispectral Instrument, Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) v6, and NASA-USDA Enhanced SMAP Global Soil Moisture Data. Through utilizing remote sensing data and GIS analytic tools, this study has discovered that it is possible to create a flood susceptibility model for large catchment regions cost-effi.....

The aim of this study is to integrate the aesthetic theory into an immersive data imaging exhibition that shows how aesthetic principles influence user engagement, visual appealing and complex interaction in Tri Sphere Technologies. The study used mixed methodology for evaluating immersive visualization styles on interaction complexity, typography, average rating, color harmony and information architecture as well as aesthetics. The qualitative analysis investigated the immersive user engagement, exploration of data and aesthetic appealing in Tri Sphere Technologies visualizations. The data analysis revealed the complicated patterns and connections among aesthetic elements and modalities in immersive visualization like how Tri Sphere Technologies execute the thematic analysis in this context. This research provides the practical and theoretical implications of data exhibition design in the context of aesthetic theory. The results show how theory affects user experience in difficult var.....

Snail allergy is considered a serious form of food allergy with prevalence of 1.4 to 22% worldwide. However, allergy to Pomacea canaliculata, a commonly consumed local snail has not been well-described. Hence, this study aimed to characterize the allergenicity and stability of the allergenic proteins of P. canaliculata by proteomics approach. Snail flesh was treated with several thermal and non-thermal treatments prior to overnight protein extraction. The snail proteins were then subjected to SDS-PAGE, followed by immunoblotting, two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE), 2-DE immunoblotting and mass-spectrometry analysis. Raw snail demonstrated 31 protein bands between 10 to 250 kDa, with fewer protein bands in treated snails. Boiled snails had the most protein bands among thermally treated snails, while salted and dried snails showed more bands than pickled snails among non-thermal treatments. Immunoblotting of raw extract demonstrated 16 IgE-binding bands, with the 33 and 42 kDa protei.....

A collaborative relationship between vocational colleges and the industry sector is essential to provide highly skilled graduates that align with the industry's current demands. The critical need for the implementation of industrial collaboration in vocational colleges has given rise to polemics about the ability and expertise of industrial relations and training officers (KUPLI) in managing the implementation of effective industrial collaborative relations. This study was conducted to explore issues in the implementation of industrial collaborative relationships as well as to explore the need for the implementation of effective industrial collaborative relationships based on KUPLI's perspective. This study is conducted using a qualitative approach, while the design of this study is in the form of a multiple-embedded case study. The implementation of this study is essential in helping every party interested in implementing industrial collaborative relations in improving the role of KUP.....

In recent times, the passage of time has led to rapid technological development worldwide. Various gadgets, such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, have emerged in tandem with the swift pace of technological advancement. Nomophobia is the fear and anxiety experienced by an individual in the absence of a cellphone or smartphone. This clearly indicates that gadgets fulfill various needs and hold significance in society. However, the issue of gadget addiction, better known as Nomophobia, also persists in conjunction with the rapidly growing technology among students. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to identify the factors causing Nomophobia and to assess the level of Nomophobia among students pursuing a Bachelor of Vocational Education (Catering) at UTHM. The methodology of this study involves a quantitative approach, using a survey method with a questionnaire distributed to respondents through the Google Forms platform. The results revealed that the mean value for all f.....

Seeds are essential for plant reproduction, ensuring species survival and dispersal while adapting to diverse environments throughout a plant’s life. Proteomics has emerged as a powerful tool for deciphering the complexities of seed growth, germination, and stress responses. Advanced proteomic technologies enable the analysis of protein changes during germination, dormancy, and ageing, enhancing our understanding of seed lifespan and vitality. Recent studies have revealed detailed insights into metabolic processes and storage protein profiles across various plant species. This knowledge is crucial for improving seed storage, conserving quality, and maintaining viability. Additionally, it contributes to sustainable agriculture by identifying stress-responsive proteins and signalling pathways that can mitigate stress and enhance farming practices. This review highlights significant advancements in seed proteomics over the past decade, discussing critical discoveries related to storage .....

This study explores the shared musical and cultural elements of the Bertitik and Mongigol-Sumundai ensembles, focusing on their instrumental use and rhythmic structures. The primary objectives are to analyze the musical elements based on the theory of norms of musical style and to conduct a comparative analysis between the Bertitik ensemble of the Bajau Samah and the Mongigol-Sumundai ensemble of the Rungus tribe. Employing an ethnographic approach, the research integrates document analysis, observations, and interviews during fieldwork, structured in three phases: Phase I includes fieldwork with recordings and documentation of the musical repertoire; Phase II involves laboratory work, particularly transcribing music using Sibelius software; and Phase III comprises a comparative musicological analysis of both ensembles. Fieldwork took place in Kulambai Village in Kota Belud and Matunggong Village in Kudat, Sabah. Key findings indicate significant rhythmic similarities, especially the c.....
