Abstract

As an ecologist, I believe we are now seeing the maturing of what we could call the Age of Ecology. An Age in which we finally develop that coherent and essential mainstream narrative for our future; one in which we tackle the interdependencies of nature loss, the climate emergency, and unsustainable production and consumption.The challenge has always been to recognise that the world is our bank account, and we live sustainably only by using its interest, not digging into our capital. If we do withdraw more capital, we must then find ways of investing more, to increase our capital. You can hear this language finally gaining much more traction today as politicians, managers and the public use the phrases natural and social capital, as well as the financial and manufactured capital, and recognise our dependencies on the natural environment.As such, I fully support the holistic, interdisciplinary sentiments and recommendations of Purwanto et al. (2020) in their introduction to the first issue of the Indonesian Journal of Applied Environmental Studies (InJAST).  I have promoted interdisciplinary approaches to solving complex environmental problems throughout my career and worked with other academics and practitioners to support the realisation of the societal and economic impact of their research. We have increasingly recognised research impact institutionally and financially, but one main weakness persists and that is the availability of academic journals for publishing such interdisciplinary work. This journal can offer such a space for researchers and encourage the recognition and promotion of evidence to policy and practice communications.  Most of all, this journal can foster the culture and confidence to ask the right questions to support the development of evidence-based decision making in policy and operational activities.  I have spent a lot of time working with researchers who are doing excellent research but not asking the best questions to help improve management and utilisation of natural resources.  Providing a forum in which students and early career researchers can confidently explore the rough answers to the right questions rather than the precise answers to the wrong questions, to paraphrase John Tukey (19152000), would be a wonderful role for InJAST.I am delighted to be asked to share my environmental experiences and perspectives in this guest editorial for the second issue of InJAST, reflecting for me a long association with Indonesia and Indonesian environmental managers, conservationists and foresters. I have worked around the world, especially in the tropics, firstly as part of scientific expeditions and then leading increasingly complex research and development programmes and institutions. Since returning to the UK, I have been involved in enhancing the quality and impact of scientific and interdisciplinary research and supporting the application and institutionalisation of the ecosystem approach and ecosystem services assessments. Here, I will focus on three major tropical environmental management programmes, two in Indonesia and one in Guyana, South America.These were complemented by subsequent involvement in the UK Governments environmental management system. All reflect the evolution of environmental management and the emergence of the ecosystem approach, now being institutionalised slowly but surely around the world.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION We know that there is only one earth, there are many different worlds. Different worldviews  do not only have significant political and socio-economic repercussions but  they  also  determine  the  way  in which people perceive and interact with nature, thus forming their specific culture. Natural ecosystems cannot be understood, conserved and managed without  recognizing  the human  culture  that  shape them, since biological and cultural diversities are mutually  reinforcing  and interdependent. Together, cultural diversity and biological diversity hold the key to ensuring resilience in both social and ecological systems (Erdelen, 2003). Through the environmental sciences and  cultural  activities,  in promoting awareness and understanding of the relationships between biological and cultural diversity as a key basis for sustainable development.Beside has  high  biological  diversity  Indonesia also possesses high cultural diversity. It doesnt marvel that Indonesia is the worlds largest archipelago, containing more than seventeen thousand island extending in an east-west direction for five thousand two hundred kilometers across the Sunda and Sahul continent shelves. The archipelago exhibits rich biodiversity that is unequalled in Asia (McNelly et al.,1990). Indonesias territory cover 7.7 million square kilometer, of which approximately 5.8 million square kilometers (75.3 %) is comprised of marine and coastal waters. Indonesia is located between two of Earths biogeographic regions: Indo-Malaya and Oceania.   The  Indo-Malaya   region   to  the   west includes Sumatra,  Kalimantan,  Java,  and Bali, and the Oceanic region to the east includes Sulawesi, Moluccas,  the  eastern  Sunda  Islands,  and  West Papua.  The vegetation types to the east and the west of the Wallace line are  divided  by  a  biogeographical boundary that extends from north to south along the Sunda Shelf. The natural  vegetation  on the shelf it self  is comprised principally  of  the Malesian  type, dominated by the commercially important Dipterocarpaceae. Vegetation to the east has greater affinities with Oceanic Austro-Pacific zone and is dominated by mixed tropical hardwood species. Deciduous monsoon forest occurs in seasonally dry areas, particularly in the southern and eastern islands such as the Lesser Sunda and the southern part of Papua. The outer islands of Sumatra,  Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Moluccas, and Papua comprise approximately 10 % of the worlds tropical rainforest. Indonesia has more tropical  forest than  any  other single Africa or Asia country, and is second only to Brazil in terms of tropical forest area. This country characterized  by an enormously varied topography of shallow coastal water, swamp, lakes, alluvial plains, volcanoes, and High Mountain ranges. This country also presents at least forty-seven distinct natural and man-made ecosystems. These ecosystem types ranges from   the   ice   mountain   ecosystem   and   alpine grassland  on the high mountains in Papua (Puncak Jaya Wijaya, at an altitude of over five thousand metres0 to variations of tropical rainforest ecosystems  from  lowland  to  mountain  landscape,  shallow swamp to deep lakes, from mangroves to algae communities and coral reefs as well as an ocean ecosystem reaching as deep as eight thousand meters below sea level (MoF/FAO, 1991).Unfortunately, little respect has been given to the high diversity of the archipelago, resulting in disappearance of many of these cultures. Studies to  document and learn traditional  wisdom are needed urgently,  not least because traditional  knowledge is often compatible with sustainable development objectives,  as  discussed in  the  World Summit  on Sustainable  Development, in Rio  de Janeiro,  1992 and in Johannesburg in 2002.   Meanwhile the deforestation in Indonesia occurs at an alarming rate. Forest cover decreased from about 193.7 million hectares in 1950s (Hannibal, 1950) to 119.7 million hectares in 1985 and to 100 million hectares in 1997 (GOI/World   Bank,  2000)  and   only   98   million hectares remain (FWI/GWF, 2001).The local knowledge of environment management and indigenous custom, as part of indigenous culture, is the product of long interaction between man and their environment and also results of   their   ability   for   application   the   technique adaptation to their environment. High biological diversity   has  utilized  for  economic  reason,  even though this national asset has not yet been fully developed.Dynamic interaction between people and biodiversity in Indonesia let to the creation of many different cultures  and  thus languages  and  dialects. More than  four hundred Indonesian ethnic groups are dispersed in different regions. Indonesia boasts665 different languages and dialects, with Papua accounting for 250 of these, Moluccas 133, Sulawesi105, Kalimantan  77, Nusa Tenggara  (Lesser SundaIslands) 53, Sumatra  38, Java  and Bali 9 (Grimes,1988). Such ethnics have  specific knowledge about how to manage  their environment and biodiversity surrounding them. Every ethnic has a specific culture, knowledge  and  local  wisdom  and  technique adaptation to their various environments.Concerning the cultural richness in Indonesian, besides have  advantages  also constitute  weaknesses for biodiversity resource management. One of these advantages    is   that   we   have   various   referable traditional pattern and alternative selection of space management and we have material to design system admissible management by all societies and also government. Meanwhile its weakness is that each ethnic  has  specific  pattern  according   to environmental condition and cultural level. But along with time developing marks sense decentralization of policy in Indonesian, therefore local or region policy that  based on actual  condition area  and society is more  elegant  compared  with  uniformity management   which  hasnt  obviously  fastened  byother    area    that    has    different    culture    and environmental condition.

Abstract

A  phytosociological study of a lowland forest was carried out at the Tesso Nilo National Park (TNNP), Riau. The objective of the study was to obtain quantitative data on the floristic composition and structure of the above-mentioned lowland forest. By establishing a plot of 1.0 ha, the quadrat method was used to collect the data. We recorded a total of 1,303 individuals of trees and saplings with diameters ≥ 2 cm, comprising 304 species, 153 genera, and 62 families. Using the dominance and density of two tree species, the forest community in the plot can be designated as Sloetia elongata-Pimelodendron griffithianum Association. The species sharing the dominance were Sloetia elongata (Importance Value, IV = 14.43), Pimelodendron griffithianum (IV = 6.17), Santiria laevigata (IV = 5.45) and Xylopia caudata (IV = 5.17). Diameter records showed that 80% of trees in the plot were dominated by small individuals with diameters between 10-30 cm. Trees with diameters 30 cm were Dracaena cf. porteri (diam. 75.6 cm), Artocarpus elasticus (63.3 cm), and Ctenolophon parviflorus (62.1 cm).  Dipterocarp species was not important since they contributed only 4%, while non-dipterocarps shared 96% comprising 61 families. The highest basal area was shared by nine species, including one dipterocarp, Shorea leprosula. Several dipterocarp species occurring in TNNP have been listed in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, including Anisoptera megistocarpa, Hopea ferruginea, Hopea pachycarpa, Shorea atrinervosa, Shorea faguetiana,   Shorea lepidota and Vatica gamosepala. The presence of a large number of small trees and a few large trees indicated that the forest in the plot was regenerating after heavy disturbances. Regenerating species were divided into five categories, in which 13 species were regenerating well with Sloetia elongata being the best regenerating species while dipterocarps were represented by Shorea acuminata. The occurrence of the majority of trees with a height of 20 m further confirmed the dynamic status of the forest. The importance of primary and secondary forests in TNNP was discussed. Restoration to the original forest was recommended by planting primary forest species, including endemic, rare, and endangered tree species.

Abstract

The Objective of this study is to analyze the potential for biodiversity and traditional knowledge in the buffer zone of the Giam Siak Kecil-Bukit Batu Biosphere Reserve (GSK-BB). The research was conducted descriptively-quantitatively by analyzing two variables, i.e. biodiversity and community traditional knowledge. Biodiversity monitoring report documents from PT Sakato Pratama (PT SPM) and PT Bukit Batu Hutan Alam (PT BBHA), profiles of Temiang and Sepahat villages, questionnaire data taken from village community representatives, as well as the results of in-depth interviews were used in the analysis. The results show that in the PT SPM area, there are 177 species of plants and 55 species of animals. Meanwhile in the PT BBHA area there are 146 species of plants and 46 species of animals. Based on information from the community of Temiang Village, there are 51 species of plants and 18 species of animals, while according to the people of Sepahat Village, there are 73 species of plants and 83 species of animals. The biodiversity utilized by the community in the two villages consists of 36 species of plants and 15 species of animals, but only three species are wild animals, i.e. sun bear (Helarctos malayanus), horseshoecrab (Limulus sp.), and seahorse (Hippocampus sp.) .), and one species of plant (rattan, Calamus sp.). The rest are cultivated plants and livestock. From the analysis, it can be concluded that the relationship between biodiversity and traditional knowledge in both Temiang and Sepahat Villages is very limited. Awareness of the strategic value of wild plants and wildlife in the buffer zone of the biosphere reserve needs to be increased.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis potensi keanekaragaman hayati dan pengetahuan tradisional di zona penyangga Cagar Biosfer Giam Siak Kecil-Bukit Batu (GSK-BB). Penelitian dilakukan secara deskriptif-kuantitatif dengan menganalisis dua variable, yaitu keanekaragaman hayati dan pengetahuan tradisional masyarakat. Dokumen laporan monitoring keanekaragaman hayati dari PT Sakato Pratama (PT SPM) dan PT Bukit Batu Hutan Alam (PT BBHA), profil Desa Temiang dan Sepahat, data kuisioner yang diambil dari perwakilan masyarakat desa, serta hasil wawancara mendalam digunakan dalam analisis. Hasil menunjukan bahwa di kawasan PT SPM tercatat terdapat 177 jenis tumbuhan  dan 55 jenis satwa. Sementara itu di kawasan PT BBHA terdapat 146 jenis tumbuhan dan 46 jenis satwa. Berdasarkan informasi dari masyarakat Desa Temiang terdapat 51 jenis tumbuhan dan 18 jenis satwa, sedangkan menurut masyarakat Desa Sepahat terdapat 73 jenis tumbuhan dan 83 jenis satwa. Keanekaragaman hayati yang dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat di kedua desa tersebut terdiri atas 36 jenis tumbuhan dan 15 jenis satwa, namun hanya tiga jenis yang merupakan hewan liar, yaitu beruang madu (Helarctos malayanus), belangkas (Limulus sp.), dan kuda laut (Hippocampus sp.), serta satu jenis tumbuhan (rotan, Calamus sp.). Selebihnya merupakan tanaman budidaya dan hewan ternak. Dari hasil analisis,  dapat ditarik  kesimpulan sementara bahwa hubungan keanekaragaman hayati dengan pengetahuan tradisional di kedua desa Temiang dan Sepahat sangat terbatas. Kesadaran tentang nilai strategis tumbuhan dan satwa liar yang ada di kawasan penyangga cagar biosfer perlu ditingkatkan.

Abstract

Environmental problems included biotic, abiotic, and social problems, therefore, to overcome them, various scientific disciplines are needed as well as the characteristics of environmental science itself. As consequences of population growth, industrial development, and technological progress, environmental problems are more complex. Therefore, appropriate research methods are needed to overcome new problems that arise as a result of these developments. UNEP recommends a research method called the DPSIR (Driving forcePressureStateImpactResponse) model that can describe the interactions between various environmental and social factors. This method has been applied as an approach to analyzing environmental problems in many countries around the world, including Indonesia. The Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) and some researchers in Indonesia have also applied the DPSIR method to assess environmental status both nationally and regionally. So far, the DPSIR method is still quite well applied to analyze environmental problems, although some scientists highlight the need for this method to be supplemented with other models to improve results.

Abstract

The objective of the study was to obtain data on composition and structure of the forest in the midsection of the Bukit Duabelas National Park core zone, designed to complement the existing data and  provide new information  potentials for the management of the park  core zone. The study was carried out in October-November 2012. Observations were made on plots of one hectare (100 m x 100 m), which was divided into 100 subplot, measuring 10 m x 10 m each. Enumeration  of tree species with  diameters ≥ 10 cm revealed that as many as 540 individuals were recorded, consisting of 89 species and 36 families, with a total  basal area of 30.837 m2 and  only three species of Dipterocarpaceae were registered. The forest had a low diversity as indicated by low species richness, much lower than in the  undisturbed lowland  primary forests in the Batang Gadis National Park in North Sumatra, where similarity was very low (5.9 %).  The forest in the plot was designated as the  Dacryodes rostrata- Shorea leprosula Association,  named after two species with highest importance values, thus the dominant. The structure and species composition pointed to the regenerating  forest after heavy disturbances.  The forest has been  undergoing  slow natural succession,  leading to  the formation of the forest similar to the original climax forest. Natural recovery through succession could be enhanced and assisted by means of ecological restoration, through planting of tree species characteristics of forests in Jambi, including  species of Dipterocapaceae, useful species having values to maintain the livelihood of the indigenous native tribe Suku Anak Dalam  and rare, endemic other species having  high conservation values. Tujuan studi  ini adalah  untuk memperoleh data tentang komposisi dan struktur hutan di bagian tengah zona inti Taman Nasional Bukit Duabelas. Studi   dirancang untuk melengkapi data yang telah ada dan untuk menyajikan informasi baru yang berpotensi untuk digunakan dalam pengelolaan zona inti taman nasional. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Oktober-November 2012 dalam petak seluas satu hektare (100 m x 100 m), yang dibagi menjadi 100 anak-petak dengan ukuran masing-masing 10 m x 10 m.   Pencacahan pohon dengan diameter ≥ 10 cm  menghasilkan 540 batang, yang terdiri atas 89 jenis dan 36 suku, dengan luas bidang dasar total 30.837 m2 dan hanya tercatat  tiga jenis Dipterocarpaceae. Keanekaragaman jenis hutan rendah,  seperti  ditunjukan oleh  rendahnya kekayaan jenis, jauh lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan  hutan primer yang tidak terganggu di Taman Nasional Batang Gadis di Sumatra Utara, yang mempunyai  kesamaan hanya 5,9 % dengan Taman Nasional Bukit Duabelas.  Berdasarkan dua jenis dominan dengan nilai kepentingan tinggi, komunitas pohon dalam petak dinamakan Asosiasi Dacryodes rostrata- Shorea leprosula. Struktur dan komposisi jenis menunjukan status hutan sebagai hutan yang sedang beregenerasi setelah mengalami gangguan. Hutan sedang mengalami suksesi alami yang lambat menuju ke pembentukan hutan yang serupa dengan hutan klimaks aslinya. Pemulihan alami melalui suksesi dapat dipercepat dan dibantu dengan restorasi ekologi melalui penanaman jenis-jenis khas hutan alami Jambi, termasuk  Dipterocapaceae, jenis-jenis bermanfaat dan mempunyai nilai untuk keberlanjutan kehidupan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat asli Suku Anak Dalam dan jenis-jenis langka, endemik dan jenis lain yang mempunyai nilai konservasi tinggi.

Abstract

Bird keeping is deeply rooted in Indonesian culture and markets selling large numbers of birds are found across the country. We examined bird markets in Mataram on the island of Lombok. Across five market visits, 10,326 birds of 108 species were observed, with 18 of these species being nationally protected and 10 having been assessed as globally threatened by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Observed protected species, as well as non-protected species with no or exceeded harvest quotas accounted for a total of 8,586 (83.1%) illegally traded birds. In terms of trade volume, 80.8% (n=8,347) of the recorded Indonesian birds were native to Lombok, suggesting that many of the birds for sale were sourced locally. However, 63% (n=65) of the encountered Indonesian species were not native to Lombok, confirming previously described intra-national bird trade flows between the Indonesian islands. We found a strong positive relation between a species body size and its asking price. Current legislation in Indonesia is sufficient to eradicate the open trade in illegally sourced and/or protected species. Improved enforcement of these laws, in combination with strategic demand reduction efforts, is needed to curb illegal and unsustainable bird trade in the country.

Abstract

The objective of research is to find out the differences and similarities of insect diversity, abundance and composition between in industrial plantation forest (HTI) and natural forest (Arboretum) ecosystems. Field research was carried out in the Rasau Kuning area, Perawang  Barat Regency,  Riau Province, while specimens identification conducted at LIPI Biology Research Center Laboratory in February - March 2019. Line transect sampling technique and fluorescent light traps were used as methods for collecting insects from both two different ecosystems with three replications. The results found five order of insects i.e. Lepidoptera, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, Orthoptera, and Hymenoptera which consisting of  35 species in plantation forest ecosystem, and 26 species in natural forest ecosystem where both ecosystems dominated by Lepidoptera. Statistical analysis of research results show that two average insects species diversity index within both plantation forest (HTI) and natural forest (Arboretum) ecosystems is not different (t = 1,419; p0,05). The similarity index found very similar (23,56%) between both ecosystems. Predatory insects which was found in this study is Sycanus sp. (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) from the order of Lepidoptera.Penelitian ini bertujuan  untuk mengungkapkan perbedaan dan kesamaan keanekaragaman  jenis, kelimpahan, dan komposisi jenis serangga antara di ekosistem hutan tanaman industry (HTI) dengan ekosistem hutan alam (Arboretum). Penelitian lapang dilakukan di areal Rasau Kuning,  Kabupaten  Perawang  Barat, Provinsi Riau, sementara identifikasi specimen dilakukan di Laboratorium Pusat Penelitian Biologi LIPI, pada  bulan Pebruari  -  Maret  2019. Metode sampling  line transect  dan perangkap  cahaya  berflouresen digunakan untuk menangkap serangga di kedua ekosistem tersebut melalui 3 kali ulangan. Hasil studi menemukan 5 ordo serangga yaitu  Lepidoptera, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, Orthoptera, and Hymenoptera, dengan masing-masing  25 spesies terdapat di ekosistem hutan tanaman (HTI) dan 26 spesies di ekostem alam (Arboretum), yang mana keduanya didominasi ordo Lepidoptera. Melalui analisis statistik, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada kedua ekosistem tidak terlihat adanya perbedaan indeks keanekaragaman jenis (t =1,419; p0,05). Begitu juga dengan indeks kesamaan menunjukan tingkat yang sangat sama (23,56%) antara kedua ekosistem tersebut. Pada kajian ini juga ditemukan spesies serangga predator yaitu Sycanus sp. ((Hemiptera; Reduviidae) dari ordo Lepidoptera.
