Abstract

The Karimata Strait possesses unique characteristics influenced by its geographical location and the local, regional, and global impacts on its physical, biological, and chemical parameters, contributing to its potential as a significant fishing ground. This study aims to observe and analyze the physical oceanographic parameters, including temperature, salinity, and sea surface currents, within the Karimata Strait. The dataset comprises monthly averaged data, resulting in a single representative value for each month. Key physical parameters examined include temperature, salinity, and the horizontal (u) and vertical (v) current components. The patterns of sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity distribution in the Karimata Strait exhibit significant variations between the west and east monsoons. During the west monsoon season, the South China Sea influenced the region with lower SST and higher salinity than the Java Sea. In contrast, the east monsoon demonstrates an inverse pattern with warmer, fresher waters from the Java Sea moving towards the strait. Additionally, the horizontal distribution of these parameters highlights the critical role of sea currents in dispersing physical oceanographic characteristics within the region. These findings underscore the dynamic nature of the Karimata Strait's oceanography, influenced by seasonal monsoon shifts, water masses from adjacent seas, and freshwater inputs from rivers, crucial for understanding the broader Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) system and its implications for regional climate and marine ecosystems

Abstract

Mushroom coral (Fungiidae) is one of the families of hard corals (scleractinian) that live off the substrate (free-living), and most of the mushroom coral habitat is found on the reef slope, which has a substrate of broken coral. This study aimed to analyze the abundance and diversity and determine the differences in abundance of mushroom corals at different depths. This research was conducted in March 2024 in Pasumpahan Island, West Sumatra. This study used the survey method and belt transect method. The sampling location was divided into three stations consisting of 3 sampling points. Station I is located in the tourist area, Station II is in the dock area, and Station III is in the area facing the open sea. The results showed that the highest abundance based on depth was found at station III with a depth of 7 m, namely 4357.14 ind/Ha and the lowest abundance at station II with a depth of 5 m, namely 1285.71 ind/Ha. The t-test results obtained a significant value of less than 0.05, namely 0.048, which means that the abundance of mushroom corals at different depths is significantly different. The diversity index ranges from 1.930 to 2.013, which shows that the level of diversity of mushroom corals in the waters of Pasumpahan Island is classified as moderate

Abstract

Global warming is one of the issues in the world today, characterized by an increase in the earth's temperature due to greenhouse gases. Mangrove forests are one of the blue carbon parameters that can utilize CO2 for photosynthesis and store it in the form of biomass and sediment well. Sediments serve as a growing medium and a place to accumulate various components, including carbon. Carbon stored in mangrove sediments tends to be greater than in other types of forests. The study aimed to determine sediment carbon stocks based on density and the relationship between mangrove density and estimated carbon stocks in sediments in the mangrove ecosystem of Apar Village, North Pariaman District. Mangrove sediment sampling was carried out using the Purpose Sampling technique, and the data obtained were analyzed using the Loss on Ignition method. The results showed that the highest average carbon stock in sediments was found at station 2 with medium density, which was 215,03 tonnes/ha, followed by station 3, which had a high density, with a value of 197,98 tonnes/ha, and the lowest average carbon stock was found at station 1 with medium density, which was 132,43 ind/ha. Future research is expected to observe carbon stocks in mangrove stands and litter in the Apar Village mangrove ecosystem to obtain more detailed information
