Abstract

Many species of waterbirds depend on wetland sites and related with variated habitats based on the maturity of ecosystems. The objective of this study was to determine the attendance and biodiversity of waterbirds in Rhizophora sp. mangrove stands of varying planting ages in Subang, West Java. Comparisons were made among five stands of different ages in 4 years, 12 years, 21 years, 29 years, and 38 years. Parameters compared were mangrove structure and waterbirds biodiversity. Structure of mangrove was observed in three plots measuring 10 m x 10 m, while waterbirds abundance was doing by bird watching in the three times of test. Results show that mangrove structure differed among stand ages, except in plant cover physiognomy. Average tree height at the youngest stand (4 years) was 1.56±0.33 meters, DBH 2.92±0.23 cm,, and biomass 1.45 kg m-2 ; whereas at the oldest stand (38 years), average height 8.13±5.65 meters, DBH 16.29±7.23 cm, and biomass 108.62 kg m-2. Sixteen species waterbirdss were recorded found in Rhizophora sp. mangrove stands. Six recorded species are listed as endangered in the IUCN Red List. Occurence of waterbirds shows a variety ranged from eight to thirteen species, with the lowest occurrence at the 4 years stand (9.5%) and highest at 29 years (46.2%). The general conclusion is that age (time) affected certain parameters of mangrove structure, but have no effect to waterbirds attendance. Presence of waterbirds also did not show a clear trend or pattern among stands.Keywords: biodiversity, mangrove, Rhizophora, waterbirds.

Abstract

This study aimed to (1) find out the water quality parameters of the river where the common carp cage cultures are located at Murung Raya Regency, either adjacent or far from the gold mine site, including water temperatures, pH, dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, ammonia and water clarity; (2) to compare the common carp cage culture profits in the river either adjacent or far from the gold mine sites; and (3) to determine the common carp cage culture development strategies at Murung Raya Regency. This study was carried out in Murung Raya Regency, Central Kalimantan, with the common carp cage farmers at Muara Supoi and Muara Bumban Villages, Murung Regency as the object. The collected data were primary and secondary data. The data analysis used were descriptive analysis, t statistical test, and a SWOT analysis. The results of the study showed that condition of the water where the common carp cage cultures are located at Murung Raya Regency, either adjacent or far from the gold mine sites, still in the range of the quality standards required, namely the temperature of 29.73 - 29.78oC; water clarity of 10 - 11 cm; pH of 6.58 - 6.65; dissolved oxygen of 6.11 - 6.73 mg /l; carbon dioxide of 0.02 - 0.03 mg/l; and ammonia of 0.02 mg/l, so that the common carp cage culture activities at Murung Raya Regency were still very feasible to carried on. The average profits of the common carp cage cultures, either adjacent or far from the gold mine sites, were relatively similar, with the t statistical test result showed that the profits at both locations did not differ significantly at 95% test level. The development strategy of common carp cage cultures at Murung Raya Regency was in quadrant II or S - T, namely utilizing the strengths to overcome the threats. It was implemented by establishing two alternative solutions, namely (1) by taking advantage from the fish culture development programs and supports by the government; and (2) optimized the development function of the of seed center for supplying the high-quality seeds. One of them was by utilizing the special allocation fund (Dana Alokasi Khusus - DAK) from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries.

Abstract

Spodoptera pectinicornis is a biological control agent that has a great potential to control water lettuce weeds. Its existence in nature however is still limited, so a mass propagation is needed by rearing S. pectinicornis imagoes to produce eggs and to hatch them into larvae of 4 days old. The 4-year larvae were then released by putting water lettuces that contained active larvae into the target area. Observation results on the percentage of damage in the watershed location for 5 times of observation consecutively was 25%, 50%, 50%, 75% and 90%. The magnitude of damage showed that S. pectinicornis was able to adapt well, so it could perform eating activities and cause damage to the water lettuces. Meanwhile, at the release site of rice field, the percentage of damage was 0%, 25%, 35%, 25% and 10%. The downward trend in the level of S. pectinicornis attacks was due to its inability to keep pace with the growth and development of water lettuces. High level of rainfall caused the water lettuces to increase its size and the number of its tillers so that they could colonize these waters. The fact that S. pectinicornis still has the ability to destroy the water lettuces gives great hope to the control efforts. However, thorough evaluation and assessment are required on all aspects, such as the biological control agents, weed targets, organisms associated with them, and the state of the environment so as to minimize the possibility of failure in the field. Keywords: augmentation, biological agents, Pistia stratiotes, Spodoptera pectinicornis

Abstract

The amount of critical lands, mostly wetlands, in South Kalimantan Province has increased, and it requires quick and sustainable recovery. An analysis of the potential of shrubs in vegetation indicated that shrubs had an important role in greening a city either in mixed vegetation or in vegetation filled with shrub strata. This basic characteristic becomes the basis of the study on carbon storage in shrubs and their potential as the alternative vegetation in the recovery of degraded lands. The study was conducted in Cempaka Subdistrict, Banjarbaru. Samples were taken at three stations, each of which consisted of three plots sample plots measuring 4 x 4 m. Carbon storage in the shrubs was estimated using the main stem diameter, and converted into table of average carbon estimation. The shrub canopy was estimated based on the types of canopy using formulas and types of canopy volume. The results showed that the average value of carbon storage contained in the shrubs per plot was 15.54 lbs/m2/day, with an average canopy volume per plot was 0.40 m3. In 1 ha of growing area, shrubs was estimated to absorb carbon up to 155,416.67 lbs. Total canopy volume developed by the shrub vegetation in the area was 22,462,878.50 m3/ha. The canopy volume has a correlation with carbon storage in shrubs, so shrubs are potential as the initial alternative vegetation or pioneer plants for reforestation of degraded land.

Abstract

Fly-ash (FA) is largely alkaline in nature and contains many essential elements for plant growth along with toxic metals.  Therefore, fly-ash is potential to be applied as soil ameliorate that may improve soil properties and plant growth.  In this experiment we studied the changes in chemical properties and rice production  of acid sulphate soils amended with fly ash.  Six different amounts of FA, viz. 0 (100% soil), 5, 10, 20, 40 and 75 tones FA ha-1 were added homogenously to 6 kg of soils in pots of PVC and then chemical properties of acid sulphate soils were observed after a 3-week of incubation. Subsequent of  the observation of soil properties, rice was planted onto the pots.  Results of study showed that fly-ash application improved soil pH and exchangeable Ca.  However, the availability of nitrogen of acid sulphate soils decreased significantly with fly-ash application.  The experiment also showed that fly-ash application to soils improved rice growth (height plant, number of tillers, dried-weight root and dried-weight shoot) and rice production. Application 20 tones FA ha-1 resulted in higher rice production than the application 0, 5 and 10 tones FA ha-1, and increasing subsequent the amount of FA application did not significantly increase the rice production. Results of this study demonstrate that low-level fly-ash application resulted in the improvements of soil chemical properties and rice production.Key words: fly-ash application; soil ameliorant; heavy metals; sub-optimal low land.
