Abstract

The study was conducted in August-October 2019. Aims to determine theconcentration of nitrate, phosphate, uniformity index, diversity and index of dominancy,abundance of epipelic diatoms and know the relationship between nitrate,phosphate and epipelic abundance diatoms in the water area of Sungaitohor Desa Meranti of Riau Islands district. The method used in this research is a surveymethod consisting of 4 research stations. Location of observation and sampling is in the waters of Muara Sungaitohor Kabupaten Meranti Islands. Basedon the results of this study of nitrateconcentrations in the waters of Sungaitohor Bekisar village 0,068-0,092 mg/l, phosphate concentrations ranged0,097-0,220 mg/L. The Epipelic diatom found in the water area of Sungaitohorvillage amounted to 14 types. As for the abundance of type diatomsepipelics ranged from 27,531.72– 40,531.72 ind/cm2. From theCalculation of the community structure diatoms epipelic obtained diversityindex value (H ') which indicates a low index value of h ' has a value of2.7527 and is at a range of 1 ≤ H ' ≤ 3. The uniformity index (E) indicatesthat an epipelic spread is not balanced with an average value of 0.3643uniformity and is at a range of value ≤ 0.5. Meanwhile, the Dominance index (D)shows the value of 0.1704 where the value of the area in the waters of Sungaitohor village does not dominate. The relationship of abundance ofepipelic diatoms with the concentration of nitrate is positive and very weak,with a correlation coefficient of R = 0.0030. While the relationship ofAbundance diatomic epipelic relationship with phosphate concentrations isnegative and weak, with a correlation coefficient r = 0.262. Abundance ofdiatomic epipelics is directly proportional to the concentration of nitrate andinversely proportional to phosphate concentrations.

Abstract

This research was conducted on September 2019 in west Sumatera waters which was aimed to find out the level of aquatic productivity, to analyze the yellowfin tuna fishing ground and to find out the corelation between sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a with the total catch of yellowfin tuna. In conducting the research, survey and spatial analyze were used as the method. The highest total catch of yellowfin tuna was on October 2019 with the total 60.610 kg and the CPUE 166 kg/trip. On the other hand, the lowest total catch was on June with the total 18.080 kg and CPUE 92,7179 kg/trip. Based on the result of the CPUE, October is the best month for fishing. The correlation coefficient between SST and total catch in 2018 was -0.69 which mean there was a negative correlation. Meanwhile, the correlation chlorophyll-a with the total catch was 0.65 which mean the corelation between both variables were not good.

Abstract

The waters of West Sumatera that face directly into Indian Ocean is strongly influenced by Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) phenomenon which caused an anomaly of sea surface temperature (SST) and affect rainfall intensity in the West Sumatera Province. This research was aimed to know the effect of IOD on the distribution and anomaly of SST and rainfall intensity in West Sumatera. Data processing methods in this research is using statistical and descriptive. The data used in this research are NOAA OI-SST, Dipole Mode Index (DMI), and rainfall data from BKMG. The results showed that IOD positive occured in October 2018 and the IOD negative occured in July 2016. During the positive IOD, SST distribution values were 28 ˚C – 28,8 ˚C and SST anomaly values were ​​-1,2 to -0,4, in the negative phase the distribution of SST values were 29,8 ˚C – 30,35 ˚C and the SST anomaly values were 0,15 to 0,7. The rainfall intensity during positive IOD phase is 157 mm/month and during negative IOD phase is 525 mm/month.

Razor clam (Solen lamarckii) is a type of pelecypoda that has high economic value on the Api api village waters, Bengkalis Regency. This research aims to study the population structure and reproduction of razor clam. The study was carried out over 2 month period from September to October 2019 at Api api village waters, Bengkalis Regency. Razor clam samples were collected by using a 1 x 1 m2 frame that laid along transect. There were 5 plots and 5 subplots along the transect as replications. The result showed, the population density of razor clams is 3.12 species/m2 in September and 2.88 species/m2 in October 2019. The distribution pattern of razor clams was uniform. While, the most common size of razor clam is the medium size category (40-60 mm) both in September and in October 2019. The average value of gonado somatic index (GSI) was 2.28-8.60%. Histological analysis indicated that maturity gonad stage of razor clam was commonly found in September is maturity gonad stage I (60%), while in October is stage III (40%) and stage IV(30%).

This study aim to determine the effect of Ammonium Sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) with different concentrations on the growth rate of Nannochloropsis oculata microalgae population. The method used in this study is an experimental method using a completely randomized design (CRD) one factor, namely ZA fertilizer concentration. There were 5 (five) levels concentration tested, namely 0 ml/L (control treatment), 30 ml/L (treatment A), 40 ml/L (treatment B), 50 ml/L (treatment C), and 60 ml/L (treatment D) total of 15 treatment units. The test organism in this study was N. oculata. The container used is a glass jar (2 liter capacity). The test parameters in this study are the maximum cell population density achieved during 5 days of maintenance (120 hours), relative growth, self-doubling time and specific growth rate during the exponential growth phase. The results of this study indicate that the best concentration of ZA fertilizer for cell population growth is 40 ml/L, followed by a concentration of 30 ml/L, a concentration of 50 ml/L, a concentration of 60 ml/L and the lowest at a concentration of 0 ml/L (control).

Abstract

This research was conducted in January 2019 on the mangrove ecosystem of Purnama Dumai City, Riau Province with the aim to determine the structure of the gastropod community which includes the type, density, diversity, distribution patterns and similarity of the community. The method used is a survey method, where the sampling location consists of 5 research stations. The type and density of gatropods are determined by drawing a transect line from the mangrove forest towards the highest tide line. The transect was placed in 3 1x1 m2 maps with a distance of 10 m. The results showed that the Gastropod species found consisted of 6 species, namely Nerita costata, Telebrelia sulcata, Cicopreus capucinus, Telescopium telelescopium, Littorina sp, Volema myristican. Based on ANOVA analysis, gastropod density between stations was not significantly different in the waters of Purnama Village, Dumai City. Diversity is categorized as medium, Uniformity is categorized as balanced and the dominance of certain types. While the overall distribution pattern of Gastropods tends to be clustered.

Abstract

Increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere is one of the factor which cause global warming. CO2 sequestration through mangrove forests is believed to be one of the efforts to reduce CO2 in atmosphere. This research was conducted in July 2019, aimed at estimating mangrove biomass, mangrove carbon stocks, soil organic carbon, and CO2 sequestration in mangrove forests in the coastal areas of Sungai Sembilan District, Dumai City, Riau Province. This research was conducted using the line transect plot method. Sampling is done by nondestructive sampling by measuring DBH (Diameter at Breast Height) of mangrove trees, and soil sampling is done in a composite manner in each plot. Mangrove biomass calculations done using allometric equations. Then, biomass is converted to carbon stock and CO2 sequestration, where the percentage value of carbon was 0.47 of biomass. As for the organic soil carbon calculation is done by multiplying the bulk density values, the percentage value of 0.47 and a depth of soil carbon. The results showed that the average estimated amount of mangrove biomass, mangrove carbon stocks, soil carbon stocks and CO2 sequestration were 621.46 tons/ha, 289.22 tons/ha, 1819.31 tons/ha and 1074.99 tons/ha. ANOVA analysis results showed that the amount of mangrove biomass, mangrove carbon stock, soil carbon stock and CO2 sequestration between stations were not significantly different (p> 0.05).
