Abstract

The entry of nutrients (nitrate, phosphate and silicate) from land-based anthropogenic activities (industry, agriculture and household waste) through rivers can potentially cause changes in water quality and will affect fertility and aquatic organisms such as phytoplankton. These three nutrients play an important role in the living tissue cells of living organisms and in the photosynthesis process. This study aims to analyze the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate content on the plankton abundance in the estuary of the Batang Arau River, Padang, West Sumatra. The method used is a survey method, the determination of the sampling station is done by purposive sampling, data were analysed by Excel and SPSS Software. Based on the results of laboratory analysis, the nitrate content ranged from 0,117 to 0,485 mg/l, phosphate content from 0,239 to 0,704 mg/l, and silicate content from 0,031 to 0,685 mg/l. Planktonic diatom abundance in the estuary of the Batang Arau River ranges from 194 to 750 ind/l. The results of the statistical analysis of the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate with an abundance of diatoms are expressed by the equation Y = 743,019 - 481,828Nitrate - 199,552Phosphate - 172,971Silicate. This equation explains that the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate content on diatom abundance has an inverse or negative relationship, where nitrate, phosphate and silicate levels increase, the diatom abundance will decrease. The difference of content and the relationship between parameters analyzed in this research are discussed.

Abstract

The aimed of this study was to determine the total oil content at Pandaratan Beach, determine epiphytic diatoms density in seagrass leaves Enhalus acoroides at Pandaratan Beach, and determined the relationship between total oil content and epiphytic diatoms density in seagrass leaves E. acoroides at Pandaratan Beach. Based on the results of research conducted, the highest total oil content is in the area around the sea transportation route, namely 0.25 ppm and the lowest total oil content is in areas far from human activity, namely 0.16 ppm. The highest epiphytic diatoms density found in areas far from human activities, namely 932.21 Ind/cm2 and the lowest epiphytic diatoms density found in the area around the sea transportation lines, namely 663.41 Ind/cm2.The relationship between total oil content and epiphytic diatoms density at Pandaratan Beach, Tapanuli Tengah Regency, North Sumatra Province has a very weak relationship (r = 0.03).

Abstract

This research was conducted on October 13-26, 2019 in the Regional Technical Implementation Unit of the Seawater and Brackish Aquaculture Fisheries Office (UPTD BPBALP Teluk Buo), West Sumatra. This study aims to determine the effect of applying different types of fertilizers to the growth of Chlorella vulgaris microalgae populations on laboratory scale culture. The method used in this study was an experimental method in the laboratory using a completely randomized design (CRD) one factor, namely the difference in fertilizer types with 3 (three) replications. Fertilizers used are Walne fertilizer, ZA (Zwavelzure Ammoniak) and TSP (Triple Super Phosphate). The testing organism in this study was phytoplankton C. vulgaris. The container used was a glass jar (3 liter capacity). The parameters measured in this study include absolute growth, relative growth, specific growth, self-doubling time and water quality. The results of this study indicate that the best type of fertilizer for C.vulgaris population growth was TSP fertilizer, followed by ZA fertilizer and the lowest in Walne fertilizer.

Abstract

The research was conducted in December 2019 at Sungai Mesjid Village Dumai Riau Province. This study aims were to know the condition of water quality, know the structure of the phytoplankton community, know the concentration of chlorophyll-a and know the effect between chlorophyll-a concentration and phytoplankton abundance in waters. The method used in this study was a survey method. The research location is divided into 3 station points namely Bangsal Aceh, Marine Station and Jalan Dermaga. The results showed that the quality of waters classified as oligotrophic waters. Phytoplankton found in this study consisted of 4 classes and 12 species of phytoplankton and the abundance of phytoplankton has a range between 195.57 - 244.33 ind./l. Diversity index (H') ranges from 1.2951 - 2.1705, dominance index (D) ranges from 0.24 to 0.46 and uniformity index (E) ranges from 0.7825 to 0.9551. The chlorophyll-a concentration in waters of Sungai Mesjid Village in Dumai ranged from 0.0025 to 0.0210 mg/L. Phytoplankton abundance and chlorophyll-a concentration has a moderate effect, wherewith increasing chlorophyll-a concentration, phytoplankton abundance will also increase.
