ABSTRAKKeberadaan ekosistem lamun di perairan pesisir pulau-pulau kecil berperan penting sebagai habitat dan penyedia sumber daya ikan, serta pelindung garis pantai dan daratan pulau-pulau kecil tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sebaran, komposisi, kerapatan, penutupan dan asosiasi jenis lamun di perairan pulau-pulau kecil Hiri, Ternate, Maitara dan Tidore, Maluku Utara. Pengambilan data dengan menggunakan metode transek garis dan transek kuadrat. Selanjutnya data dianalisis dengan menggunakan bantuan perangkat lunak MS Excel dan XLstat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Pulau Tidore memiliki jumlah jenis lamun terbanyak yakni delapan jenis lamun dari sembilan jenis lamun yang ditemukan di seluruh lokasi penelitian. Tiga jenis lamun yaitu, Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii dan Cymodocea rotundata, menyebar luas dan terdapat di keempat pulau tersebut. Komposisi, kerapatan dan penutupan jenis lamun bervariasi antar stasiun penelitian. Vegetasi lamun yang ditemukan di lokasi penelitian berupa vegetasi campuran yang terdiri dari tiga sampai delapan jenis lamun. E. acoroides banyak ditemukan di Stasiun Mtr1 dan Tte2 tidak berasosiasi dengan spesies lainnya, demikian juga dengan C. serrulata yang ditemukan di Stasiun Mtr2 dan T. hemprichii di Stasiun Tdr2 dan Tdr3. Asosiasi C. rotundata dan Syiringodium isoetifolium terlihat di stasiun Tdr1 dan Hr1, sementara Halophila ovalis dan H. spinulosa tidak menunjukkan asosiasi dengan jenis lamun lainnya di lokasi penelitian. Secara keseluruhan kondisi lingkungan perairan di keempat pulau tersebut masih tergolong baik dan mampu mendukung ekosistem lamun. ABSTRACTThe existence of seagrass ecosystems in the coastal region of small islands has been playing an essential role as a habitat and the supplier of fish resources, as well as a shore and coastline protector of small islands. This study aimed to determine the distribution, composition, density, coverage, and associations of seagrass plant in the islands of Hiri, Ternate, Maitara, and Tidore. Data were collected by using line transect method and quadrate transect. Furthermore, data were analyzed by using MS Excel and XLstat software. The results showed that Tidore Island has the highest number of seagrass species namely eight from nine species of seagrasses found in all research sites. Three species of seagrasses, Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, and Cymodocea rotundata, were widespread in all four islands. The composition, density and coverage of seagrass species varied among research stations. Vegetation of seagrasses found in the study site in the form of mixed vegetation consisting of three to eight species. Enhalus acoroides found mostly in Mtr1 and Tte2 stations were not associated with other seagrass species, nor Cymodocea serrulata that found in Mtr2 Station and T. hemprichii at Tdr2 and Tdr3 stations. The associations of C. rotundata and Syringodium isoetifolium were observed at Tdr1 and Hr1 Stations. While Halophila ovalis and Halophila spinulosa showed no association with other seagrass species at the study area. Overall the condition of the marine environment on the four islands is still relatively good and able to support the life of the seagrass ecosystem.

The Halmahera walking shark is a nocturnal species that lives at the bottom of waters and is a species endemic to North Maluku. Weda Bay is one of the largest bays on the island of Halmahera and contains marine resources and high diversity. The aims research was analyze the distribution pattern and abundance of Halmahera walking shark at that location. The research was conducted in September - November 2020. The sampling in Weda Bay, is carried out in two methods, (1) catch of nets with a mesh size of 2,5 cm stretched from the mangrove ecosystem, seagrass to coral reefs with a length of ± 50 meters and a height of 1,5 meters, (2) hand sampling equipment namely the sample catch it by hand with transect area (50x50m2) or 0,25 ha using basic diving equipment (snorkeling) to a depth of 3 meters at high tide in the night. Distribution pattern data analysis used Morisita Index and abundance analysis used reef fish abundance equation. Results the research found 28 individuals, namely 17 females and 11 males. There are 2 distribution patterns of the Halmahera epaullette shark, namely Grouping and Random. The clustered distribution pattern is found at stations 1, 2 and 4, while the random distribution pattern is found at station 3. Overall the distribution pattern of the Halmahera walking shark in Weda Bay is grouped. The highest abundance of Halmahera walkingshark was at station 1, namely 17,33 ind/ha and the lowest abundance at stations 3 and 4 was 5,33 ind/ha. The highest abundance is at station 1, this is because the habitat is still very good from the mangrove, seagrass and coral reef ecosystems to find food and the growth of the Halmahera walking shark.

Research on the occurrence and the characteristics of microplastics (MPs) sedimentary in seagrass meadows at the area of Mare Island conservation is the very first study in this region. The objectives of this work is to determine the abundance and the characteristics of MPS and its diversity in the two villages namely Maregam and Marekofo at the Island. Samples are collected using sediment core, then dried and extracted using NaCl to separate the density. MPs were identified under a microscope after going through the filtering process. The abundance of MPs particles ranges from 17,000 - 37,000 particles. kg-1dry weight (dw) sediment at Station 1 (Maregam) and 13.839 - 30,666 particles.kg-1 dw sediment at Station 2 (Marekofo). In general, the average value of MPs abundance at station 1 higher than station 2 were 27.090 ± 13.908 particles.kg-1 dw of sediment and 18,368 ± 10,625 particles.kg-1 dw of sediment, respectively. Statistically there no significance difference of the MPs abundance between the two station Furthermore, the predominance of MPs types were fiber and fragments, while the majority of colors of particles were blue. While the results of the microplastic diversity test indicated that MPS particles at Mare Island were not too complex and were in unstable conditions. Even though the less density of the population at the island, MPs were quite high compared to other areas in the world. This finding is allegedly that those MPs were supplied from the distance which transmitted by hydro-oceanographic and meteorology factors, beyond of local contribution.Keywords: Microplastic, seagrass bed, sediment, conservation area, Mare Island

The existence of several species of phytoplankton with potential HABs (Harmful Algal Blooms) was investigated on the coastal waters of Ternate Island. This work aims at describing the distribution, species composition, and the abundance of phytoplankton with potential HABs and their ecological index. Data collection was carried out in August 2022 in the coastal waters of Ternate Island at three research locations, namely in Dorpedu (Station 1), Falajawa, Muhajirin Village (Station 2) and Kulaba (Station 3), respectively. Sampling of phytoplankton uses a filtering method with a plankton net. The results of this study quantified 24 genera of phytoplankton where 11 generas were included the group of potential HABs, namely Leptocylindrus, Coscinodiscus, Pseudo Nitzschia. Rhizosolenia, Chaetoceros, and Nitzschia (Class Bacillariophyceae), Gymnodinium, Protoperidinium, Alexandrium, and Ceratium (Class Dinophyceae), and Phaeocystis (Class Prymnesiophyte). The highest abundance of potential HABs varied between research stations, Rhizosolenia sp. of 7.6388x104 cells/l at station 1, Leptocylindrus sp. of 5.4504x104 cells/l, Phaeocystis sp. of 4.0x104 cells/l at Station 2. On the other hand, the lowest abundance was Nitzschia sp. of 4.1291x102 cells/l at Station 1, Gymnodinium sp. of 4.1291x102 cells/l at Station 2, and Pseudo Nitzschia sp. of 1.2387x103 cells/l at Station 3. Generally, the ecological condition of the phytoplankton community in Ternate Island Waters has a moderate level of species diversity with fairly even distribution of species and no dominance of certain species.

This research aims at analyzing the condition of seagrass beds on Tidore, Sibu, Tosa and Guraping Village as a basis for determining coastal ecosystem management. This work was carried out from September to October 2022 in the coastal waters of Rum (St. 1), Tosa (St. 2), Sibu (St. 3), and Guraping (St. 4). The data were collected using Quadratic Linear Transect Method. This research revealed 12 species of seagrass with the highest species composition at Rum-St. 1 (11 species) and the lowest at Tosa-St. 2 (4 species). The types of seagrass which have a wide distribution at four stations are Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, Cymodocea rotundata and Syringodium isoetifolium. Meanwhile, Cymodocea serrulate, Halophila spinulosa, Thalassodendron ciliatum and Halodule pinifolia have a narrow distribution only found at certain stations. Thalassia hemprichii had the highest species density and cover values of 211.65 ind/m2 and 31.67% respectively. T. hemprichii also had the highest IVI (74,55% - 135,68%) which indicated its important role in the seagrass ecosystem at the four research stations. Generally, the ecological conditions of seagrass beds indicatd a moderate level of species diversity (H'= 1.25 â€“ 1.77) with high species evenness (E= 0.89 â€“ 0.94) and no species dominating (C= 0.19 â€“ 0.32). The health status of seagrass meadows at the four research stations can be categorized as 'healthy' at Station 1 (68.36%) and 2 (65.63%), while the 'less healthy' category was found at Station 3 (47.62%) and 4 (50.24%).
