Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems in Indonesia play an important role in coastal protection and biodiversity conservation. However, degradation caused by land-use change and past extreme events has increased the need for effective rehabilitation. Analysis of mangrove growth at an early stage is important because this phase determines the success of long-term restoration. This study aimed to analyze the survival rate and vegetative growth of young mangroves across six coastal villages in Simeulue Regency, Aceh Province, using a comparative site-based approach. Field surveys were conducted in October 2023 using purposive sampling and 1 × 1 m quadrat plots. Observed parameters included survival rate, plant height, stem diameter, species composition, and basic environmental conditions. Results showed significant variation among locations. Tanjung Raya (96.25%), Sambay (93.88%), and Ganting (92.88%) were categorized as highly successful (>80%). Labuan Bakti (68.68%) was moderate, while Pulau Bengkalak (42.15%) and Luan Balu (55.86%) were low. Vegetative growth did not always align with survival rate. Tanjung Raya showed both high survival and strong growth, while Luan Balu exhibited relatively high growth despite lower survival, indicating possible selective environmental pressure. Pulau Bengkalak had both low survival and moderate growth, reflecting ecological constraints. Biotic (crabs, snails), abiotic (tidal dynamics), and anthropogenic (livestock disturbance) factors influenced early mortality. Overall, successful mangrove rehabilitation depends not only on planting efforts but also on site suitability and adaptive local management.

Abstract

The 21st century demands interactive learning media that follow technological developments and student needs, but the number of interactive learning media is very limited, especially volcanism material that can support field introduction. This condition causes ineffectiveness in learning. Therefore, learning media is needed that accommodates student needs based on student learning styles, especially in field introduction. This study aims to develop Macromedia Flash-based learning media with Dieng Plateau material. The type of research used is Research and Development. The development procedure includes the stages of definition, design, development, and distribution. The data collection technique used is purposive random sampling. Data collection using a media suitability questionnaire by validation experts and product trials in schools which are divided into three stages. Data analysis techniques in this study were analyzed using qualitative assessments. Assessment data in the form of scores from media experts and students obtained through questionnaires were analyzed descriptively quantitatively with percentages and categorization. The results of the study indicate that geography learning media is suitable for use to support field introduction for grade X students. Recommendations for further research are the effectiveness of developing learning media in improving students' field introduction.
