Abstract

Seaweed is an excellent aquatic commodity to be cultivated. One type is Sargassum cristaefolium, which contains alginate. Alginate is needed in various industrial fields for export and import. The high demand needs to be balanced by cultivation. One of the factors that affect cultivation is the substrate. The substrate as a habitat for seaweed is very diverse. This study aimed to analyze the best substrate for the growth of S.cristaefolium seaweed cultivated on a laboratory scale. This study was conducted for 20 days using a completely randomized design of 4 treatments and four repetitions to obtain 16 experimental units. The test treatments used were sand, coral, volcanic rock, and sand and coral substrates. The Anova test results showed that different substrates significantly affected the survival of S. cristaefolium. P2 with coral substrate gave the highest results for survival of 92.25%, final weight of 18.25 g, and alginate yield of 90%. This study concludes that the best substrate for the growth of S. cristaefolium is a coral substrate with survival reaching 91.25%, a final weight of 18.25 g, and an alginate yield of 90%.

Abstract

Community structure refers to the arrangement and composition of species in a natural community and their abundance. Ecologists use various indices to assess community structure, including diversity index, evenness index, and dominance index. One helpful indicator for evaluating water quality is the presence and characteristics of macrozoobenthos, organisms living in the sediment of aquatic environments. The study focused on the community structure of macrozoobenthos as an indicator of water quality in the coastal waters of Pariaman City, West Sumatra. Conducted between February and March 2023, the research analyzed samples collected from the Marine Biology and Marine Chemistry Laboratories at Universitas Riau. Findings revealed the presence of 7 phylum, eight genera, and 16 macrozoobenthos species, with abundance ranging from 8.56 Ind/m2 to 18.44 ind/m2. The diversity index indicated moderate diversity, while the evenness index suggested an uneven distribution of individuals. No dominant species were found. Based on the analysis of macrozoobenthos community structure, water quality in Pariaman City's coastal waters was classified as good

Abstract

The sea cucumber is one of the organisms from the Echinodermata phylum, Holothuridae class. Sea cucumbers (Holothuria) can be found throughout the coastal waters, ranging from shallow tidal areas to deeper waters. This study aims to determine the species composition and economic value of sea cucumbers in Banyak Island waters. This research was conducted from August to September 2023, coinciding in the waters of Banyak Island Aceh Singkil. The research method was carried out by identifying sea cucumber documentation collected directly from local fishermen and conducting direct interviews with collectors who operate to obtain information about the selling price of sea cucumbers. Based on observations, sea cucumbers obtained in the waters of Banyak Island consist of several species in 2 families. The composition of sea cucumber species obtained includes Holothuria atra, H. fuscocinerea, H.edulis, H. fuscopunctata, and Stichopus pseudohorrens. Sea cucumbers found by fishermen have varying economic values, from cheap to expensive prices. The price is influenced by various factors, including the type of sea cucumber and its weight. Each type of sea cucumber has a different selling value, and its weight size is one of the main determining factors in the selling price

Abstract

This research was carried out in July 2023 in Muara Sungai Dumai, Dumai City, Riau Province. This study aims to conduct depth mapping analysis using echosounders based on reference corrections to tides. Tidal analysis is performed to determine reference values such as MSL (Mean Sea level) and tidal characteristics. The methods used are survey methods and quantitative analysis. The results showed that the waters of the Dumai River Estuary were mixed tide prevailing semi-diurnal with a formzahl value of 0.29. There is tidal asymmetry with the time to the high tide faster than the time to low tide. The depth ranges from 0.28 to 7.34 m, increasing to 40 m in the Rapat Strait. The weak current and the difference in HHWL values of 3.55 m and MSL 0.14 m affect water level rise due to bathymetric changes at high tide

Abstract

Marine ecotourism is a type of tourism that involves activities related to marine activities carried out under or above the sea surface. Marine ecotourism generally covers three areas: the sea surface, under the sea, and on the coast. Marine ecotourism activities, especially beach tourism, are highly dependent on the condition of the oceanographic parameters of the region for the safety and comfort of tourists. This research was conducted in Arta Beach, Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra Province, to determine the suitability of marine ecotourism at Arta Beach based on the parameters of physical environmental conditions. This study used a survey method: observation and data collection at the research location. Data analysis is used for the Tourism Suitability Index (IKW) method for physical environmental parameters and the STORET method for water quality parameters. The results of this study indicate that the tourism suitability index based on the physical condition of the environment carried out at Arta Beach at station 1 received a value of 2.49, including the suitable category, at station 2 received a value of 2.5, including the suitable category and station 3 received a value of 2.49 including the suitable category. The overall average value of IKW on Arta Beach is 2.49, included in the suitable category. This value means this beach can be used for beach ecotourism. Water quality parameters are analyzed using the storey method. The data obtained from the pH, DO salinity, and temperature parameters meet the quality requirements (good condition) and are suitable for marine tourism activities
