About

In environmental science, the word "HIPPO" is known as the source of environmental harm. HIPPO continues to take place in a variety of forms, particularly in the areas of tourism and transport. One of them is vibration and noise emissions from ship propellers. Fish has a neuromast called an organ. This organ is made up of a jellylike structure called a cupula, which is directly linked to the nerves and distributed to the vertebra directly to the neural canal. Fish behavior, patterns of fish migration and even the growth of fish can be fatally influenced by sound and vibration contamination of the water. For fish, these vibrations are a stressor and are often seen as a danger. Too strong vibrations will affect the cupula organs of the fish, making it difficult for the fish to understand their environment.

I am Ariel Hananya, who wrote this to express my concern about this poor situation, as well as my interest to study the effects of ship noise on migratory fish behavior. My last research, I was concerned about a large number of fish that are threatened by HIPPO. Anguilla bicolor bicolor is the species I studied and used for my last research.

In addition, I was also interested in a number of other fish studies, including  Cyprinus carprio, Rasbora lateristriata and Zebrafish. I am also a member of the Aquatic Research Group and I also work with the University of Gadjah Mada and the University of Leiden on Zebrafish Twin Lab. In addition, I have also been involved in bioacoustic research at IPB University, both in passive acoustics and active acoustics. This experience made me very familiar with bioacoustics and hydroacoustics, in addition to my major, histology, animal development and animal physiology. I have acquired significant expertise in laboratory work, analytical techniques, research analysis, project management and teamwork with more than 3 years of experience working in a scientific environment.
