Kakap River Estuary plays an essential role in the life organisms, but it is vulnerable to environmental changes and pollution caused by human activities. This study aims to assess the presence of plankton species, their abundance and diversity as aquatic ecological bio-indicators in Kakap River Estuary. Plankton and water samples were taken for three months, with a frequency of one sample per month, viz. in March, April and June 2020 from four sampling stations in Kakap River Estuary, West Kalimantan. A total of 34 species of plankton were observed from all sampling sites, and identified to belong to 18 classes. Chlorophyceae had the highest relative abundance among the phytoplanktons (40.10%), followed by Bacillariophyceae (21.86%) and Cyanophyceae (19.28%). Oscillatoria sp. and Hydrodictyon sp. were the most dominant phytoplankton species. There were 8 classes of zooplankton identified from all sampling stations throughout the research period. Hexanauplia had the highest relative abundance among the zooplanktons (36.56%) followed by Euglenophyceae (24.37%). The plankton diversity index (H ′) values ranged between 2.33 -3.11. The plankton evenness index value ranged from 0.79 to 0.89 which indicates high plankton evenness at all samping stations, and this is supported by a low dominance index value at all stations ranging from 0.06-0.16. Station 1 had high Shannon-Wienner diversity index score, while for station 2, 3, 4, their scores were in the moderate level. Overall. the diversity index of the plankton from all sampling sites indicated that the quality of the water had no pollution to light pollution level.Keywords:PhytoplanktonZooplanktonWater quality

This study aimed to analyze the pattern of sediment transport to the distribution of plankton and fishing ground in the estuary of KamparRiver. This study used survey methods, the study sample was obtained in the field are considered to represent the Kampar River estuary. Then the sampling results in the form of TSS, brightness, temperature, salinity, pH, flow velocity and plankton descriptively analyzed and discussed with reference to data interpretation method by using mathematical models (software mike21 ). The results showed the concentration distribution of sediment at the mouth of the Kampar River in east monsoon amounted to 8.76 million tons / day and in the west monsoon amounted to 7.64 million tons / day. A region prone to silting due to sediment transport is periodically southeastern portion Mendol. Based on the analysis modeling , plankton diversity index tends to be low in the study site so that the waters around the Mendol island excluding strategic area for fishing grounds it is indicated there has been a downward trend in plankton diversity index as the primary productivity . The existence of TSS may hinder the penetration of light that ultimately affect the photosynthetic plankton.
