Abstract

Community based marine protected area (known nationally in Indonesia as Daerah Perlindungan Laut or DPL) has been established since 2008 as a part of Coremap Phase II in Wakatobi Regency. This research aims to know the DPL performance, in regard with ecology and socio economy aspects ofCOREMAP sites (7 villages). Data collections were conducted during April  July 2011. The ecological performance was determined through data monitoring coral reef in 2008, 2009 and 2010 from CRITC Wakatobi. The socio-economical performance was measured by interviewing using semi-closed questionnaire to 140 respondents. Research result concludes that life coral cover and fish abundance tend to decrease but not significant. More than half of the respondents (56%) felt that coral reef condition in DPL is better now. That 68% respondent felt the present of DPL had contributed to increase their knowledge on the coral reef ecosystem and decrease blast and poison fishing. However, in terms of increasing the catch and their income, 64 % respondents felt no differences.

Abstract

The Bajo people are known as the sea people, because they live and depend on the sea for their livelihood. As in any other cultures, the Bajo people also have their own ethical system, which prevails as a ruling guide for their life. The ethical system of the Bajo people is called “Pamali”. This Pamali system is a kind of taboo system, which contains forbidden things that should not to be done. The example of things in Pamali concerned with the sea include: the disposal of waste in the sea, such as lemon peels, sFiges, and any other unused things, including spitting to the sea. Another example is that it is forbidden to catch small fishes and consume them before they reach harvestable size. Because the Bajo people are the sea people, they should keep and maintain the sea as their life environment. The Pamali system is the way for the Bajo people to keep and maintain the sustainability of their life in the sea. The overall program and policy on natural conservation in a wider scope in Indonesia should consider the local genius of the indigenous people, such as local values, wisdoms, and customs, which also play a significant role in maintaining the sustainability of their natural environment, in this case is the Pamali system of the Bajo people.

Abstract

One of the competencies in to develope the knowledge and to build up public awarness on the importancy of the sea human life, is the sustainability and management of coasltal and marine ecosystems, ie.: the mangrove, seagrass, and coral reefs ecosystems. From those three ecosystems, the coral reef is the most dominant as the habitat of various  fish species. Because of that, the coral reefs deserves a more empathy and love feeling to raise the appreciation of the community on the  Coral reef ecosystems conservation. These appreciation and awareness will be most effective to be introduced since theearly ages. This process is necessary to establish to corall reef literacy. this study was aimed to examine thi concepts of coral reefs ecosystem to be offered in the prymary school.The selected concepts has to be considered through its acceptability, subtantive supports, and other influencing factors, leading to priorotizing of workable concepts variables. As a technical approach for decision making, descriptive, quantitative and interpretative analysis were aplied accordingly, througs three stage of research: (1) The oceanic concepts of Indonesian childresn among inland  and coastal community form 8 to 12 years old (case study)., (2) The profil of coral reefs world through the eyes of Indonesia elementary s prepective (case study: 4th, 5 th, and 6th graders)., (3) Concepts model of coral reefs knowledge for marine science learning program in the primary school. I general this research reveal that the development of coral reefs literacy based on competency for 4th, 5th and 6th graders needs to be implemented and could be divided into three phases: phase I, Understanding; Phase II, Application and Phase III, Analysis.

Abstract

The study in the Southeast Asia regarding fisheries, tourism, including aesthetic value estimated the sustainable economic benefits per km² of healthy coral reef ranging from US$23,100 to 270,000. The question is how this goes for limited area consisted of mangrove-sea grass-coral reef, which found in many coasts throughout Indonesia archipelago. Should it be ignored? The purpose of the study was to indicate the existing economic values of limited coastal area consisted of mangrove, sea grass be, and coral reefs of the Ringgung coast of Pesawaran, Lampung Province. The results indicated that from coast length of 2.4 km, the total area of the wetland is approximately 78 ha consisted of 4.75 ha of mangrove, 22 ha of sea grass bed, and more than 50 ha of coral reefs. The economics values of the area study were predominantly used for grouper farms, with more than 15 individual farms, recreation, and Rizhopora culture (for seedlings) operated by locals. The economic values of the Ringgung coast by using direct use value of the grouper farms indicated that the yearly fish productivity was grossly of US$ 640,985. This number could be added up by the other economic values, such as recreation and saling of Rizhopora seedling. We can conclude that this economic values provided by the coastal ecosystem should be made to conserve the existing ecosystem. Besides, in order to maintain sustainable economic of the ecosystem, some consideration should be made in regard of carrying capacity for grouper farms in the area study.
