Abstract

Selective logging has been taking place in Papua for several decades. In contrast, very little is known about the stand structure in post-logged forest.  Hence, this paper investigates stand structures in logged-over area of tropical forest in South Papua. Four species were selected in three one-hectare permanent sample plots (PSPs): Vatica rassak, Syzygium sp, Litsea timoriana and Canarium asperum.  PSPs were located in the forest concession area of PT. Tunas Sawaerma in Assiki, Boven Digul, in South Papua.  Data sets comprised measurements made in 2005 and 2012 consisting of species, diameter at breast height (DBH), mortality and number of tree of each species.  Integral Projection Models (IPMs) were developed, taking into account mortality, growth, recruitment and fecundity.  Results show the pattern of stand structures of the four species were more or less similar, i.e. more individual trees were present in the small diameter classes than in the larger diameter classes.  The general pattern of the individual distribution of the four species is the typical reverse-J shape.  Syzygium sp. has a greater number of individuals in the small diameter classes than the other three species.  Population growth rates (λ) are above one, indicating that the stand structures of the population dynamics of the four species are recuperating.  Conclusively, these results suggest that species composition and population structure in these logged-over forests are recovering increasingly.

Abstract

Birds play a pivotal role in the ecosystem, but in disturbed areas their roles may be limited due to the changes of their natural habitats. This paper studies the birds habitats in Simalungun and Asahan Districts, North Sumatra. The study was conducted in four habitats: natural forest, rubber agroforests, rubber monoculture plantations and emplacement areas. The birds were observed using descriptive survey methods by implementing a quick biodiversity survey, data were collected along one km transect.  The results showed that in total, 142 species of birds from 42 families were observed in the four habitats. Natural forests had the highest diversity of bird species, followed by rubber agroforests, emplacement areas and rubber plantations, with a Shannon-Wiener index of 3.8, 3.6, 3.0 and 2.9, respectively. Regarding the IUCN red list species, 12 bird species of near-threatened status and 2 species of vulnerable status were recorded.  Based on CITES categories, one species was listed in the Appendix I, 12 species were classified in Appendix II and 26 bird species were protected under Indonesian regulations. Changes in the structure and composition of the vegetation in disturbed forests and cleared land determined the richness of the bird species. The different tree compositions in the four habitats of the rubber estate plantations and surrounding areas influenced the number of bird species, bird diversity and species composition.

Abstract

This paper identifies the plant species used  traditionally by Karo people in North Sumatra, to cure diabetes, analyses the cultural significance index of those plants for the Karo, and clarifies phytochemical contents of the plants. Data were collected using survey method from selected respondents (n=54) based on their knowledge and practices in utilising medicinal plants to cure diabetic disease. Index of Cultural Significance (ICS) of plants was determined using the method proposed by Turner. Results showed that twelve woody plant species have been used to cure diabetes: loning leave (Psychotria sp.), kacihe leave (Prunus accuminta Hook), umbrella tree leave (Maesopsis eminii Engl), mutamba leave (Guazuma ulmifolia Lamk), cepcepan leave (Villebrunea subescens Blume), pirdot/cepcepan lembu leave (Saurauia vulcani Korth), raru bark (Cotylelobium melanoxylo), breadfruit leave (Artocarpus altilis), salam leave (Syzygium polyanthum Wight), mahogany seed (Swietenia mahagoni (L.) Jacq), cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum burmani), and yellow bamboo rod (Bambusa vulgaris Schrad). Five of those plants: loning, umbrella tree, mutamba, raru and salam have the highest cultural significance level. These five plants are highly needed in large quatities by the Karo people, so their availability in the forest should be securely conserved and protected. The plants used contained alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics and terpenoids which can help to lower blood sugar level.

Abstract

Mangrove is a unique ecosystem that has complex biotic and abiotic components. Soil and water microorganisms have function as decomposer in mangrove forest ecosystem.  This paper studies the soil and water microorganisms diversity, their potential, function in ecosystem and their role as environmental parameters in mangrove area of Teluk Kelumpang, Selat Laut and Selat Sebuku Natural Reserve (Kelautku Natural Reserve).  Data of soil and water microorganisms were recorded from soil and water samplings then analyzed in the laboratory.  Results show that benthos in Selat Sebuku figure the highest diversity index.  Anadara granosa  is one of the common benthos found in Selat Sebuku.  In contrary the phytoplankton in Selat Sebuku is the lowest value compared to the other two locations, due to the settlements in the locations and it was suspected that Selat Sebuku has a relatively larger wave exposure than the two other locations.  In addition, input of organic matters from the settlements in Teluk Kelumpang and Selat Laut is also effected  by the growth of  phytoplankton.  Cyanophyta found in Teluk Kelumpang and Selat Laut was genera of Oscillatoria that showed high tolerance genera to  the environment conditions.

Abstract

Two cycles breeding program of Acacia mangium was practiced by Center for Forest Biotechnology and Tree Improvement Research. Although improved seed from the breeding program have been used in operational plantation, the real amount of gains in productivity was not verified together yet.  This study was aimed to observe realized genetic gain and projected increase in stand volume from the two cycles breeding of A. mangium, and to discuss the implications on plantation productivity and sustainable forestry in Indonesia. Improved seed from first and second-generation seed orchard were tested together with an unimproved seed in genetic gain trial in West Java, with spacing of 3 x 3 m. Measurements were done at three years ages for height, dbh, and stem volume. Realized genetic gain was calculated as the percentage increase of improved seed over the unimproved one. Results of study showed that improved seed performed better growth than the unimproved with realized gain of 5-24% (height), 3-44% (dbh) and 11-90% (stem volume). Improved seed from second-generation outperformed that from the first-generation, with an improvement of 6-16% (height), 3-26% (dbh) and 20-53% (stem volume). Genetic gains increased with increasing ages for height, but it tended to decrease for dbh and stem volume. At given site and silvicultural practices, projected increase in stand volume at 8 years rotation reached 290-325 m3/ha, which is equal to 30-50% of gains. The uses of high genetically improved seed, in combination with intensive silviculture, would provide significant impacts on plantation productivity and sustainable forestry in Indonesia.

Abstract

Kayu bawang (Dysoxylum mollissimum Blume) has been planted almost in all districts of Bengkulu Province, Indonesia, but few studies have been conducted to estimate the site quality of this species. This study aimed to asses site quality of   Dysoxylum mollissimum Blume on smallholder plantation by establishing 32 permanent sample plots (PSPs) distributed in six districts of Bengkulu Province and measured periodically from 2006 to 2012. The result shown that the robust model for dominant height growth of Dysoxylum mollissimum Blume in Bengkulu Propince was Schumacher model expressed by the equation: Ln Ho = (3,06322 + ai) – 2,04777/A (R2 = 96,5%, AMRES = 0,82 and APD =5,03%).  Site equation for this species based on the dominant height growth model was  Ln Si = Ln H0 – 2,04777 (1/12-1/A) for age index of 12 years. Based on this equation, the site were classified into five classes having an equal range of 3 metres, includes SI < 16 m; 16 m ≤ SI < 19 m; 19 m ≤ SI <  22 m; 22 m ≤ SI < 25 m; and SI ≥ 25 m for site class I, II, III, IV, and V representing from the most poor to the highest productivity respectively. Good site quality was mostly found in lowland having altitude < 300 m above sea level and bulk density > 0,9 g/cc.
