Abstract

The use of phytoimmunostimulants from Chaetomorpha sp which is environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Apart from that, secondary metabolite compounds found in Chaetomorpha sp can improve the immune system. So, it can increase the fish's resistance to disease attacks, improve the digestive system, increase the fish's appetite, and save on feed use. This can be seen from hematological and physiological parameters. Therefore, researchers are interested in researching the effectiveness of the macroalgae Chaetomorpha sp as a phytoimmunostimulant. This research aims to look at the growth of tilapia and the immune system, which includes hematology and physiology of fish fed with warm water extract of Chaetomorpha sp for 30 days of maintenance. Data analysis used One-way ANOVA, and homogeneity was seen. If the analysis results show an effect, it is tested further using Student Newman Keuls (SNK). The research results show that adding Chaetomorpha sp extract influences the growth rate and survival of tilapia fish that are kept for 30 days. This maintenance shows that the administration of Chaetomorpha sp extract with a dose of 50mL/kg feed (T2) gave the best results on growth rate, feed efficiency, hematology, and tilapia survival, namely absolute weight 18.30g, LPS 5.38%/day, absolute length 3.98 cm, FCR 1.44, feed efficiency 69.18%, total erythrocytes 1.85x106 cells/mm3, hemoglobin 6.67 g/dL, hematocrit 35.33-37.67%, total leukocytes 2.42x104 cells/mm3, leukocrit 2.67%, blood glucose 43% and survival 93.33%.

Abstract

This research was conducted from February to June 2023. A sampling of Avicennia marina and Sonneratia alba mangroves was conducted in the mangrove ecosystems of Mengkapan Village, Sungai Apit District, Siak Regency. This research aims to identify the species and test the antimicrobial activity of endophytic fungi found in the leaves and stems of A. marina and S. alba mangroves in the mangrove ecosystem of Mengkapan Village using survey and experimental methods. This research began by determining the sampling location and measuring the physical and chemical parameters of the mangrove environment. Then, sampling and preparation of A. marina and S. alba mangrove samples were carried out to isolate the endophytic fungi. After isolation, macroscopic and microscopic characterization was done to identify endophytic fungi. The diameter increase of the endophytic fungi was measured and calculated, and the antagonism activity test of the endophytic fungi was carried out. The antimicrobial index of endophytic fungi was measured against the pathogenic bacteria Vibrio sp and E. coli. This research obtained that 12 endophytic fungi were isolated from the mangroves A. marina and S. alba: two genera Rosellinia, two genera Pythium, four genera Hansfordia, and four genera Aspergillus. Based on the test results, all genera found in this research inhibited the growth of E. coli with inhibitions of 75.99% (Rosellinia sp), 87.70% (Pythium sp), 73.42% (Hansfordia sp) and 86.88% (Aspergillus sp). However, only three genera inhibited the growth of Vibrio sp by more than 50%, with inhibitions of 85.23% (Rosellinia sp), 87.87% (Hansfordia sp), and 86.07% (Aspergillus sp).

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the optimal salinity in increasing the growth rate of Chlorella sp in laboratory scale culture. This research was conducted in July 2023 at the Marine Biotechnology Laboratory, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Universitas Riau. The experimental method was applied using a complete randomized design (CRD) with four treatments and three replicates. The treatments were as follows: T0 (control), T1 (25 ppt salinity), T2 (30 ppt salinity), and T3 (35 ppt salinity). The initial density of Chlorella sp was 250x103 cells/mL, and cell abundance observations were carried out for 14 days. The parameters observed were cell abundance, specific growth rate, and water quality (temperature and pH). The results showed that different salinity influenced the growth of Chlorella sp. 35 ppt salinity gave the best results on cell abundance of 266.66x104 cells/mL, with peak population occurring on day 10. Water quality during the study was still in the normal range and can be tolerated for the growth of Chlorella sp, and the temperature ranged from 25-31oC and pH 6.4-8.0.

Abstract

When the holiday season approaches, local and foreign travellers flock to Barambang Beach's and Sibintang Beach's ecotourism regions, which are well-known tourist destinations. Nonetheless, inadequacies in the administration of ecotourism attractions occasionally result in low weekday and weekend visitor numbers at Barambang and Sibintang beaches. Since local populations rely on ecotourism activities for their livelihoods, this influences such activities but is not felt as much by those communities. The study was conducted in 2022 between July and September. A mixed methodology, along with an explanatory qualitative approach, was used in the study. The significant data used in the analysis came from interviews with a variety of participants as well as assessments of the water quality and ecology. Secondary data from some relevant document sources was gathered in the interim. The data analysis used Willingness to Pay (WTP), Willingness to Accept (WTA), economic potential, and SWOT analysis. The study findings indicate that the development plan can be implemented by including auxiliary facilities, such as signs informing visitors of the location of auxiliary facilities, directions, and the farthest swimming-safe water point. Tourists are also eagerly awaiting the establishment of eco-friendly play facilities. Additionally, the government can enact laws that give local community-run businesses regular direction and funding access.

Abstract

Climbing perch (Anabas testudineus) is a type of swamp fish that has the potential to be cultivated. The obstacle faced in developing climbing perch cultivation is that the eggs produced are very few and vulnerable to inorganic substances or waste because it takes quite a long time to reach seed size. Climbing perch usually food aquatic plants such as kiambang, weeds, and other small animals and insects. It analyzes the effect of various concentrations of tofu liquid waste on the transparent hatchability and survival of climbing perch larvae and the use of research results on the influence of various concentrations of tofu liquid waste on the transparent hatchability and survival of climbing perch fish larvae. A 100% concentration of tofu liquid waste produced the highest survival in the P4 treatment (64.00%), and the lowest concentration without giving tofu liquid waste concentration at P0 was (40.00%). A 100% concentration of tofu liquid waste produced the highest hatchability in the P4 treatment ( 60.00 %), and the lowest concentration without providing tofu liquid waste at P0 was (42.00 %). The research fulfilled the maintenance requirements by utilizing fermented tofu liquid waste as a medium for rearing climbing perch eggs and larvae. It is not possible to use 100% tofu liquid waste for climbing perch, and it is not possible to use 100% tofu liquid waste for climbing perch larvae in the long term.

Abstract

Banyuurip Mangrove Center (BMC) is a form of mangrove ecosystem conservation and utilization in Banyuurip Village that still faces obstacles in its ecotourism sector management. This study aims to determine the condition of mangroves in BMC, identify Internal Factor Analysis Summary (IFAS) and External Factor Analysis Summary (EFAS), and develop the best strategies for BMC management based on its mangrove condition. This research uses a survey method that includes the data obtained from respondents and the in-situ data on mangrove conditions. Analysis of mangrove data includes identification of species, density, and relative density. Meanwhile, data from the respondents, including tourists and management staff, were analyzed using SWOT analysis. Based on research results, it was known that mangroves in BMC are in relatively good condition. From the respondent questionnaire using SWOT analysis, the best strategy to be suggested is the SO strategy. These strategies must include government support by maximizing its advantages, utilizing social media for promotion, developing mangrove nurseries to produce quality mangrove seedlings, collaborating with Perlindungan Masyarakat (LINMAS) or Community Protection to improve security, and their economic sector by involving the society in another factor of the ecotourism management such as mangrove processing.

Abstract

Oil spills are a significant concern in the waters surrounding Bintan, Indonesia primarily due to tankers releasing ballast water before anchoring at the nearby port of Singapore, particularly during the north wind season. The region's high cloud cover presents challenges for detection efforts. However, the utilization of Sentinel-1 Satellite imagery offers a promising solution. This study aims to analyze the spatial distribution of oil spills in North Bintan waters using data collected from the Sentinel-1A satellite between December 2023 and January 2024. The study area includes Semelur Hamlet in Berakit Village, Bintan Regency. The analysis of data consists of oil spill detection and oil content. The results that the wind speed was measured within the range of 2 - 3.8 m/s, while the current speed fell within the range of 0.12 - 0.24 m/s. Additionally, the oil content was found to be less than 1 mg/l. The analysis conducted on the acquisition of December 6 - 24, 2023 revealed the presence of oil spills in four distinct areas. The spill areas were measured to be 1109 m2, 346 m2, 4258 m2, and 1491 m2, respectively. The windrose diagram reveals that the prevailing wind originates from the north northwest, accounting for 16% of the total wind occurrences. The average wind speed within this direction ranges from 3.6 - 5.7 m/s. Notably, the highest wind speed recorded exceeds 11.1 m/s and is observed to come from the north. The relationship between the process of image acquisition and the windrose diagram elucidates the impact of wind on the dynamics of oil spill movement.
