Abstract

The accurate estimation of crop water requirements is critical for efficient water resource management, particularly in regions with limited irrigation resources. This study aims to evaluate the water requirements for rice crops using the CROPWAT 8.0 model and compare the results with the Penman Modification Calculation method, as specified in the Irrigation Planning Standards (KP-01). This research is conducted using climatological data from the Kandang IV Station located near Batang Anai Irrigation area, focusing on key factors such as effective precipitation, air temperature, humidity, wind speed, sunshine duration, and topography. The representative Soil of the local area was incorporated into the analysis. The study finds that the average evapotranspiration (ETo) using CROPWAT 8.0 was 3.09 mm/day, with the peak water demand for rice occurring at the end of August, reaching 1.51 L/s·ha. These findings align with the study’s objective of assessing irrigation demand for rice crops and offer a comparison of methodologies used to estimate water requirements. The results emphasize the need for improvements in the default crop and soil data used by CROPWAT 8.0 to better align with local agricultural conditions in Indonesia. This study contributes to the ongoing development of more accurate models for water requirement estimation and highlights the importance of region-specific calibration in irrigation planning. Further research is needed to enhance the model's functionality and to explore alternative methods for improving water use efficiency in rice farming.

Abstract

Estuaries in Banten Bay support fisheries activities by serving as critical habitats for plankton communities, which form the foundation of the aquatic food web. This study aims to determine the structure of plankton communities, both phytoplankton and zooplankton, as baseline data for fisheries management in Banten Bay estuaries. Fieldwork was conducted in April and October 2021 at four estuaries in Banten Province: Karangantu, Wadas, Cengkok Estuary, and Pamong. Water samples were collected for plankton identification and analysis of physical and chemical water quality parameters in situ and laboratory. Key structural attributes, including Shannon - Wiener diversity index (H'), evenness index (E), dominance index (C), trophic status and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), were also assessed. The highest abundance of phytoplankton was found in the Karangantu estuary, while the highest abundance of zooplankton was observed in the Pamong estuary, with overall abundance higher in April. Phytoplankton diversity was highest in Karangantu in October, whereas zooplankton diversity peaked in April. Plankton diversity indicated slight to moderate pollution levels, and trophic status analysis revealed eutrophic to hypertrophic conditions across the estuaries, suggesting high nutrient levels that support fish productivity. CCA revealed significant correlations between environmental variables and plankton composition and abundance. Mitigation strategies are recommended to monitor the growth of Chaetoceros sp. and Bacteriastrum sp., especially during the dry season. Long-term monitoring of water quality and plankton dynamics is essential in other estuaries of Banten Bay to assess nutrient loading impacts and develop strategies to mitigate harmful algal blooms. These efforts are critical to ensuring sustainable fisheries management in the region.

Abstract

Global greenhouse gas levels are significantly impacted by methane emissions from rice fields, especially in Asia, where the majority of the world's rice is produced. This review analyzes research trends on methane emissions from rice fields in East, Southeast, and South Asia, focusing on factors influencing emissions and the effectiveness of mitigation strategies. We synthesized data about 169 papers published between 2000 and 2023 from Web of Science and Google Scholar were merged in Mendeley. The results were visualized using VOSviewer. It covers key aspects such as water management, soil types, farming practices, and rice varieties. Our findings suggest that water management practices, including intermittent drainage and pulse irrigation, play a critical role in reducing methane emissions. Variations in emissions levels are also influenced by soil types, farming practices, and rice varieties. The research highlights significant regional differences, with China and Indonesia being major contributors to emissions, while countries such as Japan and South Korea have implemented effective mitigation measures. Emerging research topics include the impact of organic matter inputs and innovative rice cultivars on emission levels. This review underscores the need for region-specific strategies and research in less studied, such as rainfed and peatland rice fields, to enhance global understanding and control of methane emissions from rice cultivation. The boundary of this review is this manuscript only focusing on methane emissions in artificial wetlands such as rice field area not other water bodies, therefore, further research review in other freshwater ecosystems is encouraged to be done.

Abstract

The freshwater eel, Anguillids, is a valuable nutrition and commodity fish found in various freshwater environments. However, the world's population of Anguillids are declining because of habitat degradation, pollution, and barriers to migration, all of which are prevalent threats to freshwater ecosystems such as the Poso River in Central Sulawesi. Establishing conservation areas is one of the efforts to protect Anguillids and their habitats, which requires information on the anguillids morphometrics and genetics, where high morphometric and genetic variations are indicators of adaptation or evolution of the species to survive environmental changes. Therefore, the study aims to assess the morphometric and genetic variations  in the Poso River, Central Sulawesi. Samples were collected along the Poso River in the range of May 2021 and August 2023 . Different fishing gears were used depending on the location and Anguillids’ phase of life. A total of 150 eel samples were used for morphometric analysis, out of which 38 were selected randomly for the genetic one. Genetic diversity analysis was performed based on the Cytochrome c Oxidase I (COI).  The study successfully identified three species: A. bicolor, A. celebesensis, and A. marmorata. The key characteristic distinguishing the three species was ADL/TL ratio. Most coefficients of variation of morphometric characters of each species were above 10%, indicating medium to high variation. A total of 11 haplotypes were identified, of which six belong to A. marmorata and five to A. celebesensis. Generally, haplotype diversity was low, ranging from 0.2923 to 0.9333, and nucleotide diversity ranged from 0.0005 to 0.0046. The low genetic diversity observed in this study is likely a result of the migratory nature of Anguillids. Morphometric and genetic variations can support restocking as a conservation strategy to bolster wild populations. However, comprehensive studies must be conducted to understand all aspects impacting Anguillid resources for establishing conservation areas to protecti their populations and habitats.

Abstract

Urban lakes are critical in flood mitigation, providing fresh water, and offering green spaces in urban environments. However, many urban lakes face increasing ecological pressures from various human activities. This study assesses the water quality and morphometric conditions of three urban lakes—Dori, Walini, and Dora in the Cibinong Botanical Garden Complex in Bogor Regency, located in a high-rise residential area. The study aims to evaluate the current water quality, identify contributing factors to water quality degradation, and compare conditions across the three lakes. Data was collected between January and April 2023, utilizing a Geographic Information System (GIS) for morphometric analysis and water quality measurements. Water quality was assessed in accordance with the standards set by Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021. Results indicate that Lake Dori, Walini, and Dora have surface areas of 3,406.96 m², 7,668.37 m², and 13,599 m², respectively. Based on water quality classifications, both Lake Walini and Lake Dori meet Class III standards (suitable for water use), while Lake Dora, though also in Class III, exhibits milder pollution indicators. These findings provide important insights for managing urban lakes and can guide future environmental policies.

Abstract

Cultivating duckweed in aquaculture effluent offers a viable approach to eliminating contaminants. The duckweed biomass obtained can be utilized for the generation of bioenergy. However, elevated levels of ammonium (NH4+) in aquaculture effluent, combined with variations in light intensity, can hinder biomass formation. The precise mechanisms underlying this inhibition remain incompletely elucidated. The study assessed the efficacy of duckweed (Lemna perpusilla) as a treatment agent for wastewater from catfish farms. The objective was to evaluate the growth response of duckweed and its efficacy in reducing ammonium levels. The research demonstrated that daily light intensity fluctuated using shade nets and that the ammonium concentration of aquaculture wastewater varied according to the age of the fish. The shade nets, which blocked 25% of the sunlight and had an average daily light intensity of 3433.34–15199.56 lux, demonstrated a slightly elevated NH4+ removal efficiency and duckweed productivity of 69.34% and 0.050 kg/m²/day, respectively. However, these values were not statistically significant when compared to conditions without shade nets, which had a removal efficiency of 63.97% and duckweed productivity of 0.042kg/m2/day (P<0.05). The implementation of shade structures that effectively decrease solar exposure by 25% shows promise for enhancing duckweed productivity and optimizing nutrient reduction in wastewater from fish cultivation systems. This approach contributes to the promotion of sustainable integrated aquaculture.
