Abstract

The waters of West Sumatra are one of the richest in Indonesia, and they have potential in the fisheries sector. They use various types of fishing gear, one of which is boat bagan. One of the most common fishing tools in fishing ports is the boat bagan in the waters of Carocok Tarusan, West Sumatra. The catches usually caught by boats are anchovies and tuna. The research aims to determine boat bagan composition in Carocok Tarusan Waters, Pesisir Selatan Regency, West Sumatra Province. This research was carried out on 20 July – 20 August 2023. The method used in this research was a survey method, with direct observations in the field and conducting interviews with fishermen. The tools used in this research were scales, a logbook, a cellphone camera, a ruler, a fishfinder, and a refractometer. The materials used are catches from bagan boats. The data is then calculated and differentiated between main catch, bycatch, and discard. The results of this research show that the composition of the main catch of boat charts is anchovies (Stolephorus spp) as much as 875 kg (24.7%) and tuna (Euthynnus affinis) 888 kg (25%). At the same time, fish that are bycatch consists of several types of fish, namely, trevally (Selaroides leptolepis) as much as 248 kg (7%), peperek (Aurigequula fasciata) as much as 710 kg (20%), mackerel (Rastrelliger sp) as much as 457 kg (12.9%), squid (Loligo sp) as much as 104 kg (2.93%), and mackerel scad (Decapterus) as much as 267 kg (7.5%), for the discarded catch, namely pufferfish (Tetraodontidae) as much as 0.25 kg (0.01 %). The discard catch consists of pufferfish.

Abstract

The diversity and abundance of gastropods are related to the condition of seagrass. In Teluk Bakau Village, anthropogenic activities such as tourism and fish catching negatively affect the seagrass ecosystem. To understand the diversity and abundance of gastropods in that area, a study was conducted in January-March 2023. Sampling was carried out at three stations: in the area close to human inhabitants (S1), ecotourism area (S2), and in the area with no human activity (S3). In each station, there were three transect lines; in each line, there were five plots (1x1 m2). Gastropod and seagrass samplings were conducted three times. Gastropods and seagrass were collected manually from each plot and then calculated and identified. Results showed eight species of gastropods and four species of seagrass. Abundance of Gastropods was 16.13 ind/m2 in S1, 11.6 ind/m2 in S2 and 50.53 ind/m2 in S3. The most abundant gastropod in the study area was Strombus canarium, which was present in each station. The seagrass density ranged from 51-113.86 plants/m2, and the most common seagrass was Enhalus acoroides, found in each station. The results of a simple linear regression test on the relationship between seagrass density and gastropod abundance was R = 0.975 (very strong).

Abstract

Plastic waste has been identified as an environmental problem by the UN Environment Program because it causes damage to the marine environment, organisms, and critical habitats. One ecosystem vulnerable to plastic waste is mangroves, so the government continues to tackle this problem. Bintan Island has a relatively large mangrove ecosystem, and some of it is included in the vulnerable category, so it is necessary to conduct a study regarding plastic waste and microplastics on Bintan Island. The research aims to identify the abundance of macro and meso debris in the mangrove ecosystem area, the abundance and characteristics of microplastics in sediment in the mangrove ecosystem area, microplastic contamination in gastropods (Telescopium sp), the relationship between mangrove density and macro debris density, and the relationship between macro debris density and mesoderm and microplastic. The research was conducted in October 2021 in Bintan Regency and Tanjung Pinang City. Data was collected using survey methods, microplastic abundance analysis, and correlation analysis. The mass of macro debris in the Tanjungpinang City administrative area is 743 g/m2. It is dominated by plastic, with a percentage of 49%, and meso debris, 94% of the total waste, is dominated by plastic waste. The characteristics of microplastics in sediment at each sampling location consist of fibers, fragments, and films. The most common microplastic contamination in Telescopium sp in the Bintan Regency area was film-type microplastics, totaling 198.33 particles. The relationship between mangrove density and macro debris generation is very strong, with a correlation value of 0.872. The relationship between the abundance of macro debris and meso debris and microplastics was strong, with correlation values of 0.972 and 0.793, respectively.

Abstract

The condition of coral reefs is still good on Mapur Island, which benefits community activities such as fishing and marine tourism. However, continuous activities can degrade the coral reef ecosystem, so the government has made it a Marine Conservation Area for the Eastern Region of Bintan Island. This research aims to determine the ecological condition of coral reefs on Mapur Island, the influence of the coral reef ecosystem on socio-economics, as well as the impacts felt before it was designated and after it was designated as a conservation area in Mapur Village, Marine Conservation Area in the Eastern Region of Bintan Island. The results show that increasing live coral cover and decreasing dead coral cover have shown a positive recovery trend. Establishing a coral reef ecosystem conservation area in Mapur Village has several substantial impacts. Even though most people have good knowledge and perception about the function and benefits of conservation areas, primarily as fish habitats, the main challenge still lies in access to infrastructure, which is considered inadequate. The economic impact of establishing a conservation area is not yet significant because most people do not see a substantial increase in income. However, the community feels support for their livelihoods through the sustainability of fish resources. Changes in coral cover on the socio-economic conditions of the people of Mapur Island influence the ecosystem and local communities, fisheries and marine resources, the marine tourism sector of Mapur Village, natural resource management, direct economic influence, diversification of livelihoods, education, and environmental awareness, improving infrastructure and facilities, as well as challenges and limitations.

Abstract

Fishery resources in Indonesia, especially in the waters of the Western part of North Sumatra, are closely related to the oceanographic dynamics. Knowledge is needed about the conditions of Marine Eco-Climatology in fishing areas rich in fishery resources. This research was conducted in January-April 2021 at the Sibolga Archipelago Fisheries Port, Sibolga Fisheries and Marine Resources Supervisory Post, and College of Fisheries and Marine Science in Pandan Central Tapanuli. The research method was a survey method with a simple regression statistical test. Based on the results of this study, it was slowed that the air temperature in Sibolga City from 2010-2019 ranged between 23-28⁰C and was categorized as normal. The rainfall in Sibolga City in 2010-2019 ranged from 100-600 mm per month, and the wind speed value was 6-12 knots. The effect of these parameters on the catch showed a weak status. It was known that the best time to carry out the fishing is at average temperatures of 24-27⁰C, rainfall less than 3000 m3 /day, and wind speeds of 6-8 knots.

Abstract

Banyak Island is an island located in Aceh province, precisely in Aceh Singkil district. The people of Banyak Island often consume food whose packaging is made of plastic, and then it ends up in the sea. Island community waste thrown into the sea will enter and potentially pollute the marine ecosystem and the biota within it. This research aims to identify the type of composition and abundance of microplastics found in the digestive tract of sea cucumbers on Banyak Island, Aceh Singkil, in terms of the shape and abundance of microplastics. The method used in this research is a descriptive analysis method, which is based on photos taken with a microscope. Based on the research results, the species composition ranged from 50-114 particles/g, and the abundance of microplastics obtained was 0.2-11.4 particles/g. It was dominated by microplastic pellets, fibers, and films, with the pellet type being the first. Judging from the large amount of microplastic content found in the digestive tract of sea cucumbers on Banyak Island, Aceh Singkil, they can be categorized into types of sea cucumbers that are still suitable for consumption and sale, but if done continuously, can trigger the growth of if done frequently and over a long period, it will cause adverse effects for humans who consume it

Abstract

Phytoplankton are organisms that live floating in water. Its ability to move is limited, so the organism is always carried away. The waters of mangrove forests in Tapanuli Tengah Regency are directly adjacent to the shoreline, where phytoplankton always follow the current. At high tide, phytoplankton are carried by currents to mangrove forests; at low tide, phytoplankton can be carried by currents to free ocean waters. This study aims to determine the type of phytoplankton, phytoplankton abundance, and the level of phytoplankton diversity in the Mangrove Forest Waters of Aek Horsik Village, Tapanuli Tengah Regency. This research will be conducted from May to June 2023. Phytoplankton samples were taken using the purposive sampling method, and the research station was divided into 3. Station 1 is upstream of the mangrove forest, station 2 is in the middle of the mangrove forest, and station 3 is downstream. The results of this study showed that phytoplankton found in the waters of the Mangrove Forest, Aek Horsik Village, Tapanuli Tengah Regency consisted of 5 classes totaling 15 species, namely: Class Cyanophyceae (Synedra sp), Class Euglenophyceae (Euglena viridis sp, E.protista, and Euglena sp), Class Chlorophyceae (Ankistrodesmus sp, Scenedesmus sp, Tetraedron caudatum, Closterium acutum), Class Baciliarophyceae (Navicula sp, Nitzchia sp, Tabellaria sp, Nitzchia sigma), and Class Zygnematophyceae (Cosmarium sp, Staurastrum sp, S. curvacum). The highest phytoplankton abundance was 6100 Ind/L. Phytoplankton diversity is in the medium category, with the highest value being 2.671
