The effect of waste on chlorophyll content of leaves and regeneration of mangrove forest at Angke Kapuk Protection Forest, Jakarta

Lestari F, Kusmana C. 2015. The effect of waste on chlorophyll content of leaves and regeneration of mangrove forest at Angke Kapuk Protection Forest, Jakarta. Bonorowo Wetlands 5: 77-84. Mangrove ecosystem is a transition ecosystem between land and sea. Currently the mangrove forests at Angke Kapuk Protection Forest, North Jakarta has been degraded by large amount waste. In connection with this situation, the forest research was carried out with the aim to consider the effect of waste existence on the chlorophyll content of tree’s leaf and the regeneration of mangrove forests in Angke Kapuk Protection Forest. The results showed that the existence of the waste has no effect on the chlorophyll content of leaves, but it has significant by impact on the regeneration of mangrove forest. This is shown with a density of mangrove seedlings in the less waste-occupied mangrove area is bigger than that of medium and high waste-occupied mangrove areas.

Mangrove ecosystem has many benefits both ecological and economic terms because of the mangrove ecosystem is one that has an important role in efforts to make use of sustainable coastal and marine resources. Various alternatives can be made to the management of mangrove forests in accordance with the necessities of life, their ability and their views or perceptions of mangrove forests. But there are still errors in the use of mangrove ecosystems, such as exploiting the mangrove forest and convert it into ponds, residential, agricultural land, and so forth. Various activities are causing widespread decline in mangrove forests and also resulted in decreased function and mangrove benefits for residents and the surrounding environment. To restore function of damaged mangrove and benefits, it is necessary to the management efforts through the rehabilitation and conservation of mangroves. This study aims: (1) Reviewing the chronology of mangrove conversion into ponds that occur in the Village Karangsong, Indramayu District, Indramayu District, (2) Knowing the actors and their respective roles in the conversion process and the actors in the rehabilitation and conservation of mangroves, (3) Analyze perceptions of local residents towards the rehabilitation and conservation of mangroves and to know the perspective of rehabilitation and conservation activities in the conversion of existing conditions, (4) Knowing the shape and development of resident participation in mangrove rehabilitation efforts. The results showed that the conversion of mangrove was originally introduced by settlers from the Losari District, Cirebon. Over time, indirectly Karangsong Village residents to observe and study the fish farming in ponds, and also facilitates the Village Government Karangsong arise in the mangrove area of ??land to be used by residents as fishponds. The continued development of aquaculture fish and shrimp in the pond, the conversion of mangrove area also do so causes a decrease in mangrove forest area and also resulted in decreased function and mangrove benefits for residents and the surrounding environment. Growing mangrove destruction, making some local residents are aware and take the initiative to form a group that deal with rehabilitation of mangrove on the basis of consciousness that is one of the mangrove ecosystem plays an important role in the ongoing effort to make use of coastal resources, the sea and the surrounding residents. Most of the perceptions of respondents in the category of "Medium" is the perception by the number of scores obtained from scoring high in doubt of the existence of mangrove rehabilitation in conversion of the existing conditions in the Karangsong Village. It can affect their initiative to participate in rehabilitation activities. Village regulations regarding the management of mangrove protection areas are not so clearly known to the respondent. Of the 34 respondents interviewed, nearly all do not know what the Village Regulations

Study of the function of mangrove forests as a sediment trap has been largely undertaken using field measurement methods, but only a few researches that fully utilize remote sensing data to find out the influence of mangrove forest’s area changes against the Total Suspended Matter (TSM) making this study very interesting and important to do. This research was conducted in Perancak estuary area which is one of mangrove ecosystem area in Bali besides West Bali National Park, Benoa Forest Park and Nusa Lembongan. The data used to generate TSM information and change of mangrove forest area in this research is medium resolution satellite image data, Landsat. Tidal data and rainfall data were used as a supporting data. The information of TSM concentration obtained by using Budhiman (2004) algorithm, shows that along with the increasing of mangrove forest area has caused the decreasing of TSM concentration at mouth Perancak river. The decline was caused by sediments trapped and settled around trees or mangrove roots, especially the Rhizophora mangroves. In addition to the increasing of mangrove forest area, the tidal oceanography factor also greatly influences the TSM fluctuation around Perancak river mouth.

AbstrakTulisan ini menjelaskan tentang peran ekosistem hutan mangrove sebagai habitat untuk organisme laut dengan menggunaan analisis diskriptif. Data diambil dari literatur-literatur terkait yang kemudian didiskripsikan lebih lanjut. Data yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa hutan mangrove di Indonesia diperkirakan mencakup area seluas 4,25 juta hektar, hanya sekitar 2% dari seluruh wilayah daratan, namun nilai ekonomi dan lingkungannya tidak boleh di bawah perkiraan, oleh karena itu kehadirannya harus dijaga. Sebagai zona transisi antara ekosistem terestrial dan laut, ekosistem mangrove telah lama dikenal memiliki banyak fungsi dan merupakan penghubung penting dalam menjaga keseimbangan biologis ekosistem pesisir. Ekosistem hutan mangrove merupakan habitat penting bagi organisme laut. Umumnya didominasi oleh moluska dan krustasea. Moluska ini terdiri terutama dari Gastropoda dan selanjutnya didominasi oleh dua keluarga, yaitu Potamidae dan Ellobiidae. Sedangkan untuk krustasea, terutama terdiri dari Brachyura. Beberapa fauna mangrove juga dikenal sebagai bahan habis pakai dan secara ekonomi penting seperti Terebralia palustris, Telescopium telescopium (Gastropoda), Anadara kuno, Coaxans polymesoda, Ostrea cucullata (Bivalvia), dan Scylla serrate, S. olivacea, Portunus pelagicus, Epixanthus dentatus, Labnanium politum (Crustacea).Kata kunci : hutan mangrove, ekosistem mangrove, moluska Abstract This paper describes the role of the mangrove forest ecosystem as a habitat for marine organisms by using descriptive analysis. The data are drawn from related literatures which are further described. The data obtained indicate that mangrove forests in Indonesia are estimated to cover an area of 4.25 million hectares, only about 2% of the entire land area, but its economic and environmental value should not be underestimated, therefore its presence must be maintained. As a transition zone between terrestrial and marine ecosystems, the mangrove ecosystem has long been known to have many functions and is an important link in maintaining the biological balance of coastal ecosystems. The mangrove forest ecosystem is an important habitat for marine organisms. Generally dominated by molluscs and crustaceans. This mollusc consists mainly of Gastropods and is further dominated by two families, namely Potamidae and Ellobiidae. As for crustaceans, mainly consisting of Brachyura. Some mangrove fauna are also known as economical and economically important materials such as Terebralia palustris, Telescopium telescopium (Gastropoda), ancient Anadara, Coaxans polymesoda, Ostrea cucullata (Bivalvia), and Scylla serrate, S. olivacea, Portunus pelagicus, Epixanthus dentatus, Labnanium politic (Crustacea).Keywords: mangrove forest, mangrove ecosystem, mollusk,
