Abstract

Mosquitoes are members of the Culicidae family which act as vectors. Mosquitoes usually live in tropical environments, including Indonesia. This research aims to identify types of nocturnal mosquitoes in Sukawana, Serang City. The mosquito catching method is carried out using a sweeping technique at each period, then the mosquitoes caught are taken using a special aspirator. The proportion of mosquitoes most commonly found was Culex quinquefasciatus at 51 individuals (51%). Culex Fuscocephala as many as 31 individuals (31%), Culex perexiguus as many as 16 individuals (16%), and Aedes albopictus as many as 2 individuals (2%). This research provides important information regarding the presence of mosquito species in Sukawana, which can be used as initial data for efforts to control diseases transmitted by mosquitoes.

Abstract

Land cover plays an essential role in maintaining hydrological balance and soil conservation in tropical forest ecosystems. The decline in vegetation cover can lead to reduced infiltration, increased surface runoff, and decreased soil water-holding capacity. This literature review aims to analyze the relationship between land cover, water retention, and soil conservation in tropical forests based on recent scientific findings. The analysis includes studies on soil biophysical properties, rainfall, vegetation types, and forest management strategies. The results indicate that dense and multi-layered vegetation improves soil porosity, infiltration, and water retention while reducing erosion. In contrast, the degradation of vegetation cover decreases soil physical quality and hydrological stability. Effective conservation efforts include the implementation of agroforestry systems, integrated watershed management, and sustainable forest protection policies.
