Abstract

Marginal coral reefs are located in a limited aquatic environment, causing coral organisms to live under threat and only certain species of coral are able to survive. Porites lutea is one species of coral that is able to live in normal and marginal coral reef conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine the ecology of Porites lutea, the physiological ability of Porites lutea's Productivity (P) and Respiration (R), coral reef habitat conditions and environmental factors that affect the distribution of Porites luteal in normal and marginal locations. This study used the belt transect method, measurement of coral colony volume, physiological productivity (P) and respiration (R), transect picture for substrate cover and coral reef conditions and CTD to measure environmental indicators such as temperature, salinity, turbidity, chlorophyll and DO. The results shows that the density of Porites coral is higher at normal coral reef locations (Pak Kasim), the highest volume range is 25-100 cm3, with the largest size in the 451-475 cm3 class. P/R values ​​is higher at normal coral reef sites, especially in reef slope areas. Coral reef habitat cover is dominated by abiotic components with poor coral reef conditions in marginal and normal environments. Water temperature was significantly different (P=0.039) between two normal and marginal locations with a range of 27.08 - 27.51 oC, Salinity was significantly different (P=0.145) with a salinity 33.44ppt at normal locations and 32.88 ppt at marginal locations. The chlorophyll and oxygen number was not significantly different between the two locations, the range of chlorophyll 0.03 – 0.15 mg/L and oxygen 2.49 – 5.23 mg/L. The turbidity factor was significantly different between locations (P=4.86E-07) where the marginal location in Sample was more turbid than the normal location in Pak Kasim. This study shows that there are differences between normal and marginal waters in environmental conditions and physiological reactions of Porites lutea, but this coral is able to survive to show their resilience to environmental stresses.  Keywords: Coral physio-ecology, Porites lutea, P/R ratio, marginal coral reefs.

Abstract

Pulau Samalona merupakan salah satu pulau wisata yang berada di Kepulauan Makassar yang terkenal dengan keindahan alam salah satunya adalah pesona terumbu karangnya yang menarik banyak perhatian wisatawan. Namun terdapat beberapa spot karang yang telah rusak karena ulah dari kegiatan manusia sendiri baik dari masyarakat setempat dan wisatawan dan pengaruh dari lingkungan. Salah satu cara dalam merehabilitasi terumbu karang adalah transplantasi. Transplantasi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu media gantung dan media spider. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pertumbuhan karang jenis Acropora sp. pada media gantung dan spider. Fragmen karang Acropora sp. yang digunakan sebanyak 30 buah pada masing-masing media yang diamati 2 minggu sekali selama 3 bulan. Hasil yang diperoleh pada penelitian ini yaitu pada media gantung memperoleh nilai rata-rata pertumbuhan 0.70 cm/bulan dan pada media spider diperoleh nilai rata-rata pertumbuhan 0.69 cm/bulan selama 3 bulan.

Abstract

This study explores the potential of Sediment Microbial Fuel Cells (SMFCs) in the bioremediation of coral transplantation environments at Coral Garden Samalona, Samalona Island, Makassar. An experimental approach using marine aquariums was employed to assess the effects of SMFCs on the coral environment. Physicochemical parameters such as temperature, pH, salinity, and total dissolved solids (TDS) were monitored in real time using IoT technology. Statistical analysis using the Mann-Whitney test revealed significant effects of SMFCs on these parameters, with Asymp. Sig (2-tailed) < 0.05, revealing positive changes. The pH remained stable in an alkaline range (8.16-8.36), while TDS and salinity decreased by 3.19% and 15%, respectively. However, challenges related to temperature fluctuations in the SMFC group, likely due to microbial activity, were noted, as evidenced by peak voltage outputs ranging from 84.3 to 96.6 mV. Although this voltage remains low for broader applications, further research is needed to address temperature fluctuations, increase voltage output, and optimize SMFC design for real-world implementation.
