Seagrass Ecosystem is one of the marine ecosystems that has many roles for life at sea. The aim of this study was to understand correlation of the nutrient (Nitrate Phosphate) in the sediment to sea-grass ecosystem at Sintok and Bengkoang Islands. Sea-grass is an organism whose life is strongly influenced by environmental factors. The nutrient content of the substrate is one of the environmental factors that can affect the life of seagrass. Nitrate and phosphate are essential nutrients that are very important to support the growth and development of seagrass. This study aims to determine the correlation between sediment nutrient content on the density of seagrass in Sintok Island and Bengkoang Island, Karimunjawa. The difference in the amount of nitrate and phosphate in the environment is thought to affect the condition of seagrass in Sintok and Bengkoang Islands. The method of observing seagrass ecosystem condition uses seagrasswatch method. The statistical analysis method used is the Pearson-correlation analysis. Analysis of the correlation of nitrate and phosphate content to the density of seagrass on Sintok Island obtained a correlation value of nitrate of -0.425 and phosphate of -0.422. Analysis of the correlation on Bengkoang Island obtained a correlation value of nitrate of -0.933 and phosphate of 0.849. This study can be concluded that the nutrient nitrate and phosphate sediment on Sintok Island has a negative correlation with an adequate strength of correlation to seagrass density. The sediment nitrate content in Bengkoang Island has a very strong negative correlaation, while the sediment phosphate content has a very strong positive correlation to the density of seagrass.

<p>Electroplating and paper industry activities contribute to pollution of chromium (Cr) in aquatic ecosystems. The presence of Cr can affect the activity of microalgae which play an important role as primary producers in the food chain of ocean ecosystem.Cr was tested on a species ofgreen microalgae, Tetraselmis sp. This microalgae are very abundant in the sea and can accumulate heavy metals, including Cr. Changes in nutrient content in cells of Tetraselmis sp. can affect the productivity of the next trophic level organisms. This research aims to determine effect of Cr to Chlorophyll-a, carbohydrate and protein content in Tetraselmis sp. The methods of this study include several steps, cultivation with initial density of 40x104 cells ml-1 to log phase, then exposed by K2Cr2O7 during 96 hours with concentrations 0; 3.2; 5.6, and 10 ppm. Cell density was calculated everyday using haemocytometer, observed with microscope and optilab. Chlorophyll-a, carbohydrate and protein were measured by a spectrophotometer on days 0, 4, 6 and 8. Data analysis with ANOVA, the real difference is determined by Dunnet and Duncan Test.The results showed that increasing Cr concentration causes higher growth inhibition rate of Tetraselmis sp. IC50-96 hours was 2.63 ppm and NOEC value was &lt;3.2 ppm. The content of Chlorophyll-a, showed decrease after Cr exposure for 96 hours. Carbohydrate content was increased after 72 hours, and then decreased after 96 hours exposure. Protein content increased significantly up to 96 hours.</p><p><br /><strong>Keywords</strong>: Tetraselmis sp., Chromium, Toxicity test, Chlorophyll-a.</p>

Based on the composition of surface sediment diatom assemblages of 30 lakes a classification index for lake trophic status was developed. The lakes were selected to represent a continuum ranging from oligotrophic to eutrophic lake types. A trophic index quotient was derived. The log diatom inferred trophic index (D.I.T.I.) was regressed against the trophic status of the lakes as determined by the log total phosphorus (r = 0.84) and log chlorophyll-a (r = 0.91). Multiple regression analyses showed significant correlations between log D.I.T.I. and the log percentage abundances of oligotrophic, mesotrophic, and eutrophic species (r = 0.89). The abundance of the trophic indicator diatom species depends not only on total phosphorus and chlorophyll-a, but possibly on the interaction of these with other factors. Using this approach, past trophic changes were inferred for oligotrophic Barbara Lake and eutrophic Chemung Lake. The study suggested that Barbara Lake had retained its present day oligotrophic condition over the last 200 yr, whereas major trophic changes have occurred in Chemung Lake.


Purpose. Assessment of trophic status of the Dniester deltaic part lakes (Bile, Svine, Tudorovo and Putrino) in 2006-2017. Methods. Determination of hydrological, hydrochemical and hydrobiological characteristics of the lakes aquatic environment has been performed using standard methodologies. Three indicators of eutrophication have been used: chlorophyll a concentration, number of bacterioplankton, trophic indices TSI and TRIX. Results. Peculiarities of physicochemical characteristics of water in the Dniester deltaic lakes have been analysed. Increased nutrients concentration has been revealed in all the lakes during past 12 years. The lowest oxygen content and oxygen saturation was established in water of the Putrino Lake, where at the same time the highest concentrations of total nitrogen and phosphorus were observed. Analysis of long-term changes of chlorophyll a and bacterioplankton has been done. Based on the lakes integrated study in summer time of 2006-2017, assessment of water trophic state has been for the first time performed for each deltaic lake. Statistical interrelations between trophic state indicators and physicochemical characteristics of the lakes have been revealed. Conclusions. It was established that the assessment of four deltaic lakes trophic status based on chlorophyll a, bacterioplankton and TSI trophic index practically coincided and evidenced increased of the lakes’ trophic status and decrease of water quality in 2012-2017 compared with previous years. All the eutrophication indicators in water of the lakes Svine, Tudorovo and Putrino during six last years corresponded to hypertrophic status, while in the Bile Lake most of eutrophication indicators were lower and corresponded to eutrophic status. Trophic index TRIX, which was developed for seawater assessment, practically always showed somewhat higher trophic status of the lakes than other indicators.


Purpose. Assessment of the trophic status of water in the Kuchurganske Reservoir in 2006-2018. Methods. Determination of hydrological, hydrochemical and hydrobiological characteristics of the water body's environment has been done using standard methodologies. Four indicators of water eutrophication have been used: chlorophyll a concentration, bacterioplankton number, trophic indices TSI and TRIX. Results. Features of physicochemical characteristics of water in the water-body have been analysed. Higher water temperature has been registered in the middle and lower parts of the water-body compared with its upper reaches. Mineral content increase in water has been found in the direction from lower to upper part; the critical for hydrobionts life decrease of oxygen concentration has been registered in the upper reaches the most often. Analysis of long-term changes in chlorophyll a and bacterioplankton has been carried out. Statistical interconnections have been established between trophic state indicators and physicochemical characteristics of the reservoir. A close positive correlation has been registered between chlorophyll а content and bacterioplankton number, which is caused by the functional dependence of bacteria on the organic matter produced by phytoplankton. It has been shown that with an increase of water volume in the reservoir the value of these indicators of trophic status went down, which was proved by close negative correlation dependence between those values and the depth of water-body. It was demonstrated for the first time that water transparency revealed close significant negative correlation with all the indices and indicators of water trophic status, which evidenced the possibility to use the transparency as a simple indicator of water trophic state as established that the Kuchurganske Reservoir’s trophic status assessment on chlorophyll a, bacterioplankton and the TSI trophic index practically coincided and evidenced the increase in trophic status of the water-body from eutrophic to hypertrophic in last 2016-2018. The reservoir’s upper reaches were characterized by higher water trophicity compared with the central and lower parts. The values of TRIX trophic index developed for marine water assessment had practically always been showing higher trophic status compared to other indicators.

The main pigments found in oil palm tree leaf are chlorophylls a, b, and c. Chlorophyll a converts light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis process. The content of chlorophyll pigments varies by their ages. The aim of this research was to determine the concentration in chlorophyll a in different ages. This study is significant in oil palm fertilization for monitoring oil palm nutrient content (NPK). Chlorophyll measurement was done by extracting using methanol solvent and concentration measurement using spectrophotometric method in order to quantify chlorophyll a concentration based on their ages. 6 samples of oil palm tree leaves, collected from 2 different ages, were analyzed. The observed values were determined based on the absorbance at wavelength (670nm) and were calculated for concentrations value based on to the Lambert-Beer law Equation. It showed that the chlorophyll a concentrations at the age of mature stage had been higher than those at the old stage. The results depicted that the chlorophyll a concentration values at the mature stage were 0.33mg/ml, 0.32mg/ml, and 0.18mg/ml, while at the old stage were 0.22 mg/ml, 0.18mg/ml, and 0.06mg/ml.
