Abstract. Afsholnissa S, Hernawan E, Lastini T. 2019. Land cover change and land use suitability analyses of coastal area in Bantul District, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 20: 1475-1481. Shrimp farming in the southern coast of Bantul District is considered to be the cause of environmental degradation, decline of mangrove association due to logging for land conversion to shrimp pond and also considered to be the cause of agricultural land for crops around the shrimp pond. The purpose of this study was to identify land use change and analyze the land suitability for shrimp farming, agriculture, and mangrove plant associations. Identification of land use was done using ENVI 5.3. The study identified 34.88 ha (3.16%) empty ponds, 20.97 ha (1.90%) active ponds and as much as 91.93 ha (8.31%) land used for agriculture. The identification of land use change using Google Timelapse revealed a dominant land conversion of sandy soil and mangrove plant area into shrimp ponds in 2007 and continue to increase from 2011 to 2015. Land suitability was evaluated using ArcGIS 10.5 with an overlay method. The results revealed that 634.82 ha area of the land was suitable for shrimp ponds and ??84.32 ha area were suitable for non-paddy agriculture. Lands suitable for paddy field were about 148.58 ha, and that for mangrove plant association was 616.42 ha. Spatially, coastal area of ??Bantul District was dominantly suitable for shrimp farming.

Abstract. Erniasari I, Hernawan E, Mulyaningrum. 2024. Short Communication: Carbon stock of mangrove forest in Pantai Sederhana, Bekasi District, West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 25: 2974-2980. Mangrove forests play an important role in the carbon cycle because this forest can store greater amounts of carbon than other ecosystems including tropical rainforests. Mangrove forests in Bekasi District, West Java, Indonesia have enormous potential to absorb carbon in this industrial area. In this research, we estimate the aboveground carbon (AGC), belowground carbon (BGC), and soil organic carbon (SOC) of mangrove forest in Pantai Sederhana, Muaragembong Subdistrict, Bekasi District. Carbon estimation of AGC and BGC was carried out using the allometric method, while SOC at four depth intervals (0-15, 15-30, 30-50, and 50-100 cm) was estimated using the LOI (Loss of Ignition) method. There were four mangrove species in Pantai Sederhana, namely Avicennia marina, Avicennia alba, Rhizophora apiculata, and Rhizophora mucronata. The total carbon stock was 329.54 Mg.C.ha-1, which was composed by aboveground carbon (114.51 Mg.C.ha-1), belowground carbon (61.46 Mg.C.ha-1) and soil carbon (153.56 Mg.C.ha-1). The largest carbon pool was contributed from soils with 47% of the total carbon stock. The result of this study can be used as the initial information of the importance of the mangrove ecosystem in Bekasi District.

Abstract. Atsaury ZIA, Husodo T, Megantara EN, Lastini T, Hernawan E, Wulandari I, Shanida SS. 2025. Population and habitat analysis of Javan gibbon (Hylobates moloch) in fragmented forests of West Java, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 26: 2857-2872. Javan gibbons (Hylobates moloch) face various anthropogenic disturbances that are intensive enough to damage and even eliminate their habitat. Additionally, previous studies have primarily focused on protected areas. However, there is limited information on the Javan gibbon in non-conserved areas, such as Ciletuh Geopark, Cisokan, Cijedil, and Kanaan, West Java, Indonesia. The study objective was to determine the distribution and habitat of Javan gibbon in non-conservation areas in West Java. Line transect distance sampling and quarter methods were used in this study. Despite the high level of anthropogenic disturbance, Cisokan exhibited the highest density of Javan gibbon individuals and groups, with 19.48 individuals per square kilometer and 7.79 groups per square kilometer. Generally, the habitat of Javan gibbons is dominated by food plants, such as kondang (Ficus variegata), puspa (Schima wallichii), and beunying (Ficus fistulosa). Hence, 97 plant species were identified as food plants of Javan gibbons, while 84 were eaten by their fruits, 25 by their leaves, and 12 by both. Javan gibbons tend to live in forests with closed and interconnected canopies, as well as on slopes and hilltops with a slope greater than 40% at altitudes ranging from 115 to 1,564 meters above sea level (m asl). Establishing ecological corridors to enhance habitat connectivity in degraded vegetation is crucial for conserving Javan gibbon populations.

Abstract

Tahura Lati Petangis represents a unique case of ecosystem restoration in a former coal mining area (2,017.53 ha of 3,445.37 ha total area) in Paser Regency, East Kalimantan. This study employs an integrated Total Economic Value (TEV) framework to comprehensively assess ecosystem services, combining multiple valuation methods: Market Price Method for biodiversity resources, Individual Travel Cost Method for ecotourism, carbon sequestration valuation through international carbon markets, benefit transfer for erosion prevention, and Contingent Valuation Method for non-use values. Results demonstrate a total economic value of Rp961.43 billion, with indirect use values (primarily carbon sequestration at Rp885.86 billion) contributing 92.97%, followed by direct use values (Rp24.29 billion, 2.53%), and non-use values (Rp43.32 billion, 4.50%). The area supports 171 tree species with biomass of 775.48 tons, sequestering 1,005,749.88 tons of carbon. Biodiversity assessment identified 20 mammal species, 92 bird species, and 62 insect species with an estimated economic value of Rp873.42 million. Ecotourism generates significant economic benefits with 4,111 visitors (2024) and a consumer surplus of Rp5,640,874 per visit. Strategic analysis using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and SWOT framework positions the area in Growth Quadrant I, recommending strategies focused on premium ecotourism development, carbon trading implementation, and integrated buffer zone management. This research provides a replicable methodology for post-mining ecosystem restoration valuation and demonstrates the economic viability of conservation-based land use in degraded landscapes.
