This paper explores two such indexes----the Aerosol Free Vegetation Index (AFRI) and the Atmospherically Resistant Vegetation Index (ARVI). Comparisons were made with the NDVI (normalized vegetation index) to see if they indeed performed better. In general, the results showed that the AFRI and ARVI (with gamma=1) did indeed perform better than their NDVI counterpart study with the related channels were employed.

This study aims to document empirically the individual factors that influence the intention to do whistleblowing. This study uses several variables, including internal locus of control, external locus of control, and whistleblowing intention. The use of the theory of Planned Behavior in this study is to explain and analyze the perception of behavior control as a determinant of whistleblowing intention. A quantitative research approach is used. The type of data in this study is primary data in the form of a questionnaire. The data collection method in this research is using the survey method. The sampling technique used a nonprobability sampling method, namely, the census method. The census method is the entire population sampled. The population in this study was all employees of the Pratama tax office in West Semarang. The research was conducted by distributing 111 questionnaires. Ninety-one valid questionnaires were returned appropriate for analysis. The data were processed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling ((PLS-SEM) using the Warp PLS 7.0 program. WarpPLS 7.0 was used to test hypotheses and the relationship between variables. The study results showed that both internal locus of control and external locus of control affect whistleblowing intention.

This study aims to find empirical evidence of the effect of increasing income on the potential transfer of wealth from manufacturing companies that go public to stakeholders. Earnings management with an accrual approach with the Modified Jones model is an identifier of the availability of earnings management practices, without paying attention to both positive and negative symbols. The interpretation of the results of the discretionary accrual measurement between positive and negative symbols has different meanings. Positive discretionary accruals indicate that management uses income-increasing techniques. Meanwhile, negative discretionary accruals indicate that management uses income-reducing techniques. Income-increasing techniques tend to be viewed as opportunistic behavior of managers. This study used 111 data from manufacturing companies listed on the IDX (Indonesia Stock Exchange) from 2015-2018. Path analysis is used to test the hypothesis. The results of this study are in line with the point of view of management strategy, increasing income is used as a way to transfer potential welfare from the company to stakeholders. Social welfare (tax) and managerial remuneration are proven to be mediators in increasing the effect of increasing income on future company value. Further research can complete the potential welfare transfer against the shareholders related to income-increasing strategy.

In the chemical process industries, accidents have a high potential and large effects on catastrophic results. Therefore the safety management for accident prevention plays a crucial role to guarantee the process safety. For these reasons, many systematic methods for safety management system have been widely employed in the fields of chemical processes. PSM (Process safety management) is one of most representative methods. The audit system, which is one of PSM system components, evaluates the performance of PMS system. However, most existing safety audit systems are not systematic and these are performed based on knowledges and experiences of various specialist. Moreover, the safety audit is only performed based on each independent technical component. So, the results of safety audit are not a quantitative index but only a series of commentaries. Finally, it is very difficult to obtain the comparison with other plants or industries. In this study, the novel systematic method and index-based accident database of auditing safety management systems for quantitative assessment are proposed. First, the elements of safety audit replace technical methods to categories of accident database. The F-N curve of each category for accident database is employed to derive the index for quantitative assessment. The Accidental Factor Risk Index (AFRI) is suggested for evaluating the effect of each element in accident database and safety audit system. The safety audit can be modified according to the proposed index.
