Changes in land use in the upstream of Jatigede watershed cause discharge and sedimentation problems in the Jatigede Reservoir. The objective of this study is to analyse the affect of land use changes in the Jatigede Reservoir watershed to the inflow and sediment to the reservoir. SCS Curve Number method and HEC-HMS modeling system are used to discharge analysis. Flood discharges in the reach of Cimanuk River close to the reservoir using data of 2009 are Q2=1,751.5 m3/sec, Q5=2,280 m3/sec, Q25=3,064.5 m3/sec, Q50=3,589 m3/sec. Flood discharges in the reach of Cimanuk River close to the reservoir using data of 2018 are Q2=2,053.8 m3/sec, Q5= 2,616.7 m3/sec, Q25 = 3,439.2 m3/sec, Q50=3,984.9 m3/sec. Discharges increase in 10 years (based on 2009 data and 2018 data). For example discharge increment for Q25 is 375 m3/sec. The increment is due to the increment of CN number as the consequences of land use changes. In other words along with the time, flood discharge in the rainy season increases, however discharge in the drought season decreases.

Crowdfunding is a new method in fundraising activities based online. Moreover, the level of penetration of social media to the community is increasingly high. This makes social activists and academics realize that it is important to study social media communication strategies in crowdfunding activities. There is encouragement to provide an overview of crowdfunding activities. So the author conducted a research on "Crowdfunding Communication Strategy Through Kolase.com Through Case Study on the #BikinNyata Program Through the Kolase.com Website that successfully achieved the target. Keywords: Strategic of Communication, Crowdfunding, Social Media.

Vegetation fluctuation is sensitive to climate change, and this response exhibits a time lag. Traditionally, scholars estimated this lag effect by considering the immediate prior lag (e.g., where vegetation in the current month is impacted by the climate in a certain prior month) or the lag accumulation (e.g., where vegetation in the current month is impacted by the last several months). The essence of these two methods is that vegetation growth is impacted by climate conditions in the prior period or several consecutive previous periods, which fails to consider the different impacts coming from each of those prior periods. Therefore, this study proposed a new approach, the weighted time-lag method, in detecting the lag effect of climate conditions coming from different prior periods. Essentially, the new method is a generalized extension of the lag-accumulation method. However, the new method detects how many prior periods need to be considered and, most importantly, the differentiated climate impact on vegetation growth in each of the determined prior periods. We tested the performance of the new method in the Loess Plateau by comparing various lag detection methods by using the linear model between the climate factors and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). The case study confirmed four main findings: (1) the response of vegetation growth exhibits time lag to both precipitation and temperature; (2) there are apparent differences in the time lag effect detected by various methods, but the weighted time-lag method produced the highest determination coefficient (R2) in the linear model and provided the most specific lag pattern over the determined prior periods; (3) the vegetation growth is most sensitive to climate factors in the current month and the last month in the Loess Plateau but reflects a varied of responses to other prior months; and (4) the impact of temperature on vegetation growth is higher than that of precipitation. The new method provides a much more precise detection of the lag effect of climate change on vegetation growth and makes a smart decision about soil conservation and ecological restoration after severe climate events, such as long-lasting drought or flooding.
