Abstract

A study on the tree diversity and secondary succession after selective logging of lowland mixed dipterocarps forest has been conducted at three sites (Mongakngai, Kaloat, and Taipah) of Taileleu Village, Siberut Island National Park, West Sumatra. Plot size at each Mongakngai, Kaloat and Taipah site was: 100 x 30m; 100 x 40m; and 100 x 50m,respectively. Tree plants with DBH of more than 10 cm at each site were 50, 47 and 42 (or 101 species in total), while small tree plants of 2-10cm in DBH were 78, 11 and 98 (or 203 species in total), respectively. The most dominant species were Ficus subcordata, Aphorosa sphaeridophora and Castanopsios rhamnifolia at each site, respectively. Based on the similarity indices, those sites were clustered. Species diversity and structure of the forest at each site were also discussed in relation to the natural succession of forest.

Abstract

Ecological studies of peat-swamp forest was conducted in the Tanjung Puting National Park,Central Kalimantan. One-hectare permanent plot has been establishes in order to describe the forest structure and floristic composition. Within 1-ha plot 141 species of tree (dbh >10 cm) and saplings (dbh 5-10 cm) belongs to 84 genera and 43 families recorded. Glutta wallichii, Neoscortechinia philippinensis and Gonystyllus bancanus were dominant tree species, whereas Baccaurea racemosa was very dominant for sapling stage.Tree's density 2 2 was 728 /ha with basal area of 43.01 m /ha whereas density of sapling was 904 /ha with basal area of 3.8 m /ha. Most (30.7 %) of trees with dbh 10 - 30 cm and only 2.23 % of them reach up to dbh > 50 cm. There are three canopy layers that are I-layer was 26.8-33.6 m,II-layer was 17.8-26.8 m and Ill-layer was 9.8-17.6 m high.

Abstract

Kawasan Kalimantan Timur mengalami musim kemarau panjang yang merangsang terjadinya kebakaran hutan yang luas pada 1982-1983 dan 1997-1998.Naskah ini mengemukakan hasil penelitian di Bukit Bangkirai, Kalimantan Tengah mengenai dampak dari kemarau panjang dan kebakaran hutan 1997-1998 terhadap diversitas tumbuhan pohon hutan dipterokarp campuran.Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara memperbandinkan hasil pencacahan tumbuhan pohon berlingkar batang setinggi dada lebih daripada 15cm yang terdapat dalam tiga petak penelitian, masing-masing: lha di hutan alam yang tidak terbakar (K-plot), 0,3 ha di hutan yang terbakar ringan (LD) dan lha di hutan yang terbakar berat (HD).Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa musim kemarau panjang 1997-1998 menyebabkan 12,02% mortalitas individual pohon di hutan alam yang tidak terbakar, yang terlihat dari pohon mati berdiri tegak akibat kekeringan, atau kehilangan 21,67% dari total basal area. Secara keseluruhan terlihat bahwa kebakaran hutan menyebabkan kerusakan berat terhadap struktur dan komposisi hutan. Secara kumulatif, kemarau panjang dan kebakaran hutan menyebabkan mortalitas individual pohon berkisar 36-70% dan kehilangan total basal area antara 45-85% dan menyebabkan lantai hutan terbuka terhadap penyinaran matahari langsung karena menurunnya penutupan tajuk sebesar 23-79%.Kebakaran hutan juga berdampak terhadap penurunan biodiversitas tumbuhan pohon sebesar 23-79% pada tingkat jenis, 53-66% pada tingkat marga dan 18-21% pada tingkat suku.Tercatat perubahan komposisi jenis pada hutan yang terbakar; dominasi jenis Dipterocarpaceae dipetak hutan tak terbakar (K) menjadi dominasi pionir sekunder Macaranga gigantea-Vernonia arborea di petak terbakar berat (HD) dan dominasi Macaranga gigantea-Shorea smilhiana di petak terbakar ringan (LD).Beberapa jenis seperti Durio acutifolius dan Syzygium incarnaium mungkin dapat digolongkan sebagai jenis yang relative lebih tahan terhadap api.

Abstract

Vegetation types in fresh water swampy areas: Mandor in West Kalimantan and Lahei in Central Kalimantan, were compared.There were three types: kerangas, kerangas shrub and peat swamp forest. Kerangas forests in both areas had similar flora in some extent.That of peat swamp was very different from kerangas though both vegetations distributed in adjacent area.

Abstract

Two 1-ha (100m by 100m) plots were established at a peat swamp forest of Kelampangan, Central Kalimantan on May 2002. One plot was established at a forest that has been started to regenerate after forest fire December 1997 (PK) and another one at the unburnt natural forest (HAG). Both plots were separated by artificial canal, about 300m away to southwest (HAG) wards and to northeast wards (PK) of the canal. All trees with stem girth at 130cm height of more than 15cm (or about 4.8 cm in diameter) within the plots were enumerated and measured in May 2002 and re-measured again in May 2003. HAG plot was consisted of 3074 tree individuals grouped into 80 species (Fishers'a = 15.02) with total basal areas of 33.19 mTha, dominated by (top five in BA, from higher to lower): Callophyllum canum, Combretocarpus rotundatus, Campnosperma squamatum, Ctenolophon parvifolius and Cratoxylum glaucum. Species with higher number of individual were: C. canum (515 individuals), Cp. squamatum (355), Ct. parvifolius (350), Elaeocarpus petiolatus (183) and Cr. glaucum (125). PK plot consisted of 1158 individuals, 103 species (Fishers'a = 27.3) and total basal areas were 7.43 mVha, dominated by: Co. rotundatus, Cratoxylum arborescens, Palaquium gutta, Shorea teysmaniana and Syzygium ochneocarpum. Species with higher number of individuals were C. arborescens (256 individuals), S. teysmaniana (104), Sy.ochneocarpum (50), Horsjieldia crassifolia (47) and Cp. squamatum (46). Based on its tree diameter and growth rate, most of the trees (1102 individuals) within PK plot were grown after forest fire December 1997, while the rest 56 trees with higher stem diameter were escaped from forest fire December 1997, mostly belong to: C. canum, Co. rotundatus, Dyera lowii, P. gutta. Based on the species number and total basal areas, the recovery rate of peat swamp forest at PK plot after first forest fire December 1997 were categorized as very high. In September 2002, PK plot was burnt again while HAG remain unburnt, and in May 2003, only 2 individuals of Dyera lowii were found to produce new leaves after escaped from the fire, one laid stem of Co.rotundatus produced new shoot and one standing dead tree of Cr. arborescens produced sprouts from the base of the stem. Growth rate relative,mortality rate and recruitment rate of trees at natural un-burnt forest of the HAG plot were also discussed.

Abstract

H. SIMBOLON 1988.Soil nutrients loss on a slope in the primary forest of Dumoga-Bone Nationat Park.North Sulawesi. Berita Biologi 3(8): 413 -417.The lost of soil nutriens in the lowland primary forest have beer studied in Lombongo,Dumoga-Bone National Park (North Sulawesi).The forest was dominated by Pometia pinnata with 25.71% of relative basal area.The forest canopy was built up by 368 trees per ha and the soil surface was covered by 353.92 g per m of litterfall (mean of fresh weight).The soil-and litterfall nutrient status of the study plots was less than that of the other primary tropical rain forests.Even though the soils were fully covered by litterfall, the erosion and leaching processes were still occurring.The leaching rate of the soil nutrients was 3.26% on C(the lowest rate) and 14.46% on P2Q5 (the highest rate),but no significant decrease on N was observed.

Abstract

A total of fifty-three samples of fungal basidiocarp were collected from peat area in Tanjung Puting National Park, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. These samples are mostly determined to genus until more studies are available.The fungi were isolated on CMA medium then the isolated strains were purified on PDA medium. The fungi belong to at least 3 families of Aphyllophorales, however there were a wide diversity in the genus with respect to macroscopic examination.An agar plate screening procedures was developed for the rapid selection of fungi and estimation of their capacity for lignin-decomposer. The test is based on the visualization and interpretation of the formation of halo zone or decolourization process in well-defined agar medium containing Poly R-478. The selected isolates were also tested in to rhemazol brilliant blue R salt (RBBR) medium. Five isolates had the ability to decolourize either Poly R-478 or RBBR. These isolates showed a qualitative lignin decomposition although a comparative study of selected fungi revealed the difference potentiality. The highest loss of lignin was 28.18% and attempts have been made to determine the unidentified fungi, which is resupinate type, by direct sequencing of 18s ribosomal DNA (rDNA).
