Abstract

This study was carried out in February 2024 in Concong Dalam Village, Concong District, Indragiri Hilir Regency, to know the habitat characteristics, types and distribution of abundance and size of mangrove crabs. This research uses a survey method by determining stations using purposive sampling consisting of 3 stations, where at each station, nine traps are installed with an area of around 628 m2/trap within 1 x 24 hours. Each trap is given chicken head bait in the morning at low tide, with two traps lifted at each high tide. A one-way ANOVA test was carried out to determine differences in abundance between stations. The results showed that the substrate was muddy with a moderate organic content of 12,82%. There were two species of mangrove crabs, including Scylla serrata and S.tranquebarica, where S. serrata dominated the population. The average abundance of mangrove crabs in the area was a value of 47,76 ind/ha, and there were no significant differences among stations. The size distribution of the species S. serrata (shell length 6-9,12 cm; shell width 9,08-13,31 cm; and weight 130-380 g), while in the species S. tranaubarica (shell length 6,52-6,98 cm; shell width 10,11-10,54 cm and weight 180 g). Small sizes dominated the population of mangrove crabs.

Abstract

Decapods are one of the macrozoobenthos consisting of the Taxonomy of the last five pairs of the eight thoracic appendages. This study aimed to determine the structure of the decapod community in the waters of Rupat Utara District Beach, including abundance, diversity, uniformity, dominance index, distribution pattern, and community similarity index in Rupat Utara waters. The survey method was used in the study. Determination of observation stations was carried out purposively. The species found consisted of 8 (eight) species from Rupat Utara waters. The abundance of decapods was 1,326 ind/Ha. The diversity index value (H'= 1.48) is included in the medium category. The value of the uniformity index (E = 0.83) is included in the high category. The dominance index (C = 0.31) and similarity index of decapod community I to II is 83%, I to III 77%, and II to III 93%.

Abstract

Class Gastropods is the largest class of the Phylum Mollusca. Changes influence the gastropod community structure in terms of environmental factors. This study was conducted in the coastal waters of Lalang Village, Sungai Apit District, Siak Regency, in June 2022, aiming to determine the structure of the Gastropod community, which includes species, density, diversity, uniformity, dominance, and distribution pattern, and water quality. Sampling using the line transect method was carried out at four stations. The study found eight species of gastropods; the gastropod density values obtained at each research station were 3.57-4.84 ind/m2. The value of the gastropod diversity index (H') was categorized as medium, the gastropod uniformity index (E) was classified as high, and the dominance index value (C) indicated that there were no dominant species in the waters. The distribution pattern of gastropods between observation stations is clustered

Abstract

This research was conducted in February - March 2023 in Poncan Gadang Island, Sibolga City, North Sumatra Province. This study aimed to analyze the density of seagrass at each station in the research location, analyze the differences in biomass and carbon stocks in the above-ground biomass (Agb) and below-ground biomass (Bgb) parts between stations, the relationship between seagrass density and seagrass biomass and carbon stocks, and the carbon storage potential of seagrass in the waters of Poncan Gadang Island, Sibolga City, North Sumatra Province. The method used in this research was a survey method, which involved direct observations and measurements of samples in the field. The samples were then analyzed in the laboratory, and the results were described descriptively. The calculation results of carbon storage using the Loss on Ignition method for E. acoroides in Poncan Gadang Island are as follows: 14,836.07 gC/m2 at station I, 3,975.09 gC/m2 at station II, and 65,073.32 gC/m2 at station III, with a total carbon storage for E. acoroides species of 83,884.48 gC/m2. On the other hand, C. rotundata shows relatively lower results compared to E. acoroides, with 8,353.20 gC/m2 at station I, 12,056.76 gC/m2 at station II, and 7,235.53 gC/m2 at station III, with a total of 27,645.49 gC/m2. It can be concluded that the seagrass species E. acoroides has a larger biomass and carbon content compared to C.rotundata, thus making a significant contribution as a carbon sink in the study area.
