<![CDATA[Mangroves are plants that can live in salty waters and areas tidal. Sediments store more than 50% of the carbon contained in the coastal ecosystem. This study aims to calculate the value of the content of carbon and soil density values. This research uses purposive sampling to determine the location and the LOI (loss on ignition) method to find out carbon content. Station 1 is located at Ecowista Mangrove, Station 2 is at ponds, and Station 3 on the coast. Sediment organic carbon percentage value Soil is obtained from the process of ashing soil organic matter. Average value the highest percentage of soil organic carbon content at all stations is located at a depth of 60- 100 cm, which is equal to station 1 (14.38%) and the estimated carbon The highest organic matter is located at station 1 at a depth of 60-100 cm (95,151 Mg/ha), for the highest overall organic carbon estimation is located at station 3 (252,900 Mg/ha). From the results obtained for the value of mangrove density and production Mangrove litter can be said to have a mutual influence on the carbon value organic sediment at a depth of 0-30 cm.]]>
