Abstract

The coral reef ecosystem in Indonesia boasts the highest biodiversity and serves as the center of the Coral Triangle's diversity. Despite its richness, Indonesia's coral reefs face increasing threats from various factors, primarily anthropogenic. Regular biophysical surveys of coral reef ecosystems are therefore necessary to monitor their current conditions and guide management efforts. This study aimed to assess the condition of coral reefs by examining the percentage of coral cover in the Gili Balu Marine Conservation Area, Sumbawa NTB. The research was conducted in January, 2022, using the Point Intercept Transect (PIT) method at 10 observation points. The transects measured 50 meters in length and were repeated three times at each location. The results indicated that the coral reefs were in good condition at the South Belang Island Station (57%) and West Pasareang Island (69.67%), according to Kepmen LH No. 4/2001. However, moderately damaged reefs were observed at North Belang Station (38%), Kenawa Island (30%), East Belang Island (30%), and Mandiki Island (28.67%). Coral reefs classified as severely damaged were found at Southwest Namo Island Station (17.33%), North Pasareang (16.67%), South Kalong (11%), and North Namo (9.67%). Overall, the dominant condition of coral reefs in the Gili Balu Conservation Area was categorized as moderately to severely damaged. Conservation efforts, including protection in areas with good conditions and rehabilitation in damaged areas, are recommended as follow-up actions to support coral reef sustainability in Gili Balu.

Abstract

The Gili Balu Marine Conservation Area (KKP), located in Sumbawa Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, is ecologically and economically significant due to its rich coral reef ecosystems. This research aims to measure the abundance and biomass of reef fish in the KKP Gili Balu, which can be used as a basis for evaluating the effectiveness of conservation efforts in maintaining marine biodiversity. The Underwater Visual Census (UVC) method was used, recording types of reef fish at ten observation points. The results showed that the highest abundance was found on Mandiki Island, with functional fish abundance reaching 2973 ind/ha, followed by Pasareang Barat Island (1903 ind/ha) and South Kalong (1600 ind/ha). The biomass of functional fish also reflects their important role in maintaining the balance of the coral reef ecosystem. This research contributes to the scientific understanding of marine biodiversity in the KKP Gili Balu and provides a basis for sustainable conservation management efforts. Additionally, the research recorded the presence of several coralivorous and economically important fish species, although they tend to be smaller compared to functional fish. Economically important fish in the KKP Gili Balu waters were found only at four observation locations: East Belang Island, North Belang, Kenawa, and Southwest Namo. The highest value was recorded at Kenawa Island, with 93 ind/ha. These fish tend to be rare in this area, possibly due to past fishing practices.
