Abstract

The waters of Lubuk Gaung Village, Sungai Sembilan District are areas that are widely used as transportation routes. Activities in these waters will cause environmental pollution, which affects the life of phytoplankton. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the primary productivity of phytoplankton with oceanographic parameters in the waters of Lubuk Gaung Village, Sungai Sembilan District, Dumai. The method used is the survey method to determine the research station and the in situ method for measurement and sampling of oceanographic parameters. The results obtained are Oceanographic parameters from the three research stations, namely Brightness = 30 – 49 cm, Turbidity = 47.4 – 58.4 FTU, TSS = 124 – 209 mg/L, and BOD = 0.408 – 1.224 mg/L. The average value of primary productivity of the waters ranged from 48.07 to 79.69 mgC/m3/day. The value of primary productivity at station II is categorized into Oligotrophic, namely low waters. Stations I and III are categorized into mesotrophic waters, namely medium waters. The relationship between brightness, turbidity, and TSS with primary productivity has a very strong and positive (unidirectional) correlation value. The relationship between BOD and primary productivity has a very strong and negative (opposite) correlation.

Abstract

This study is to determine the relationship between primary productivity and nutrients in the coastal waters of Pelintung Village, Medang Kampai District, Dumai. The research was conducted in March 2022; the method used in this research is survey method and purposive sampling. The research location is divided into 3 station points namely tourist area, secondary vegetation forest area, and near industrial area. The results of the measurement of the highest primary productivity value are found at Station III which is 78.91 mgC/m2/hour which indicates mesotrophic water conditions, while the lowest primary productivity value is at Station II, which is 46.88 mgC/m2/hour which indicates oligotrophic water conditions. The results of the analysis of the concentration of nitrate and phosphate between stations also varied, namely for the nitrate value of 0.04 – 0.05 mg/L which was included in the less fertile category, while the phosphate concentration was 0.042 – 0.048 mg/L which was included in the fertile category in the waters. Furthermore, the relationship between nitrate concentration and primary productivity is a correlation coefficient value (r) = -0.070 which means that there is a weak relationship between nitrate concentration and primary productivity. Meanwhile, the relationship between phosphate concentration and primary productivity is the correlation coefficient (r) = 0.965, which means that there is a very strong relationship between phosphate concentration and primary productivity. So it can be concluded that nitrate and phosphate nutrients can affect the primary productivity of water.
