Abstract

Maluku is an archipelago whose territory is coastal and marine which is suitable for tourism. The tourism value and attractiveness of coastal areas should be developed through marine tourism. This study aims to analyze current speed, water depth, pH, DO, temperature, salinity, sigma-t, chlorophyll-a, and turbidity-m as physical, chemical, and biological indicators in the Lubang Buaya and Moki Beach ecotourism areas. Water sampling was carried out using Kemmerer bottles at different depths, namely at the surface and at a depth of 20 meters.Water samples are used to analyze chemical elements both horizontally and vertically. Sample analysis was carried out at the Oceanology Laboratory and Basic Biology Laboratory of Pattimura University.The test parameters in this study were water depth, temperature, salinity, sigma-t, chlorophyll-a, turbidity-m using conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD), current speed using a current meter, pH using a pH meter, and dissolved oxygen (DO) using a DO meter. The waters of Lubang Buaya Beach and Moki Beach, Morella Village, Central Maluku Regency, Maluku Province have water conditions, namely pH, temperature, salinity, sigma-t, chlorophyll-a, turbidity-m, and brightness with appropriate categories, while DO with an inappropriate category based on water assessment standards. The assessment results show the waters' suitability for ecotourism development at a surface depth of 0 meters and a bottom depth of 3 to 25 meters. The minimum current speed of 0.003 m/s and the maximum current speed of 0.36 m/s are suitable for boating, banana boating and jet skiing activities.

Abstract

In Maluku, mole crabs are only used as food ingredients by a small number of coastal communities. In Seilale Village, Nusaniwe District, Ambon Island, mole crabs (called "hotong") are processed by grilling or burning using skewers or thin wood, stirfried with kang vegetables, or fried. The regressions used are from the species of Hippa ovalis, H. marmorata and H. celaeno. This research was conducted in the waters of Rumahkay, Haria, and Amahusu Villages Morphometry results and growth analysis with allometry also showed a linear relationship on the growth of each species. Relevant results from the study showed a significant nutrient content in mole crab Hippa genus. Mole crabs Hippa genus which has abundant unsaturated fatty acid makes mole crabs have become an alternative that has a potentially high economic value, an alternative source of nutrition from fish, and an alternative source for income to the local community specifically in coastal sandy beach areas in general

Abstract

Tourism in Indonesia now plays a significant role in providing benefits to the country's economic, social, and cultural activities. The development of nature-based tourism, or what we know as ecotourism, which emphasizes local culture and wisdom, is now being widely considered in various regions to attract tourists. Data management was carried out by analyzing community perception questionnaires related to the potential and distribution of ecotourism in the form of graphs of respondent personal data, ecotourism attractions, ecotourism facilities, community participation, and environmental impacts. Also, inputting tourist location coordinate data into ArcGIS 10.8 software, then creating a database that will be supplemented with non-spatial data. The results of the study, based on a tourist survey and questionnaire results, showed that the 10 ecotourism locations were favored by both local and foreign tourists in terms of facilities, ecotourism location attractions, community participation, and environmental impacts of the ecotourism locations.
