"Hidrologi adalah ilmu tentang air yang ada di bumi, yaitu keterdapatannya, sifat-sifat fisis dan kimiawinya, sirkulasi dan penyebarannya, serta reaksinya terhadap lingkungan, termasuk hubungannya dengan kehidupan. Penerapan hidrologi di bidang teknik sipil mencakup berbagai bidang pekerjaan, antara lain pengairan, pengendalian banjir, penyediaan air minum, dan pembangkit tenaga listrik. Dalam kaitannya dengan pengaturan dan pemanfaatan sumber daya air guna memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat, dibagunlah berbagai fasilitas umum yang dalam perencanaan dan pembangunannya sangat membutuhkan analisa hidrologis. Oleh karena itu, penguasaan dan pemahaman akan istilah-istilah hidrologi serta bidang-bidang terkait lainnya menjadi suatu keharusan. Mempertimbangkan hal tersebut dan kelangkaan kamus istilah hidrologi di Indonesia saat ini, kami menghadirkan Kamus Istilah Hidrologi Teknik. Kamus ini disusun untuk membantu para mahasiswa, insinyur, dan praktisi bidang hidrologi memahami istilah-istilah hidrologi dan bidang-bidang lain yang erat kaitannya, antara lain meteorologi, geologi, geodesi, pertanahan, pertanian, dan sebagainya."

This book is divided into three main parts and an epilogue. The first part of the book provides a context for the readers to understand the underlying background of our work. Chapter 1 gives a brief overview about wayang kulit, whereas second chapter introduces the field of digital humanities that has particularly touched the art of wayang kulit. The second part of the book is focused on the engineering design in wayang kulit, particularly related to the methods we developed to display 3D shadow images. The third chapter qualitatively explains the phenomenon of colour-based stereoscopic shadows, which form the basis of 3D shadow images. In the fourth chapter we start to describe quantitatively the optical methods to synthesize the 3D shadow images. In the fifth chapter, we share our experiences from two art exhibitions, i.e. the Jogja ArtWeeks in 2015 and the 'Wayang and New Technology' in Tembi Rumah Budaya in 2016. The sixth chapter explores the quantitative methods to digitally synthesize the 3D shadow images, which opens up new possibilities in art performances, where dhalangs can combine real and virtual 3D shadow images. The third part of the book is focused on the engineering analysis in wayang kulit. In the seventh chapter, we start with the analysis of the puppet shapes. Afterwards, in the eighth chapter we use the 3D shadow images described in Chapters 3–6 to quantitatively measure the pose of the puppets. The same method can also be extended to analyse the puppet movements, which is explained in the ninth chapter. This quantitative analysis of the puppet movements is a continuation of the research pioneered by Prof. Roger A. Long in 1979, on the puppet movements in the Ngayogyakarta wayang kulit. Meanwhile, in the tenth chapter, we analyse the audiovisual patterns in wayang kulit performances. These patterns may become relevant, not only for engineers who are interested in developing interactive artworks, but also for scholars in the field of digital humanities who are interested to investigate the change of wayang kulit performances over space and time.

Caused in part by the slash-and-burn practices of both large- and small-scale farmers, the environmental implications of tropical deforestation remain a worldwide concern. Yet the small-scale farmers who use slash-and-burn agriculture depend on it to produce food and make a living for their families. With contributions from scientists, economists, ecologists, and anthropologists, this book provides an overall analysis of the environmental, economic, and social reasons for why slash and burn is so common and presents alternatives to this destructive practice.
