Salah satu pemanfaatan lingkungan pesisir dan laut adalah pembangunan Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap (PLTU), karena sistem penyediaan air yang dibutuhkan untuk operasional PLTU berasal dari air laut. Kenaikan suhu permukaan laut akibat adanya aktivitas PLTU akan mempengaruhi organisme pada perairan tersebut, salah satunya adalah fitoplankton. Fitoplankton merupakan organisme autotroph yang mengandung pigmen klorofil sehingga dapat melakukan proses fotosintesis dengan memanfaatkan cahaya matahari. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji komposisi dan kelimpahan fitoplankton di perairan sekitar PLTU Tambak Lorok Semarang. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif eksploratif, sedangkan dalam pengambilan sampel penelitian, digunakan metode purposive sampling. Hasil kelimpahan fitoplankton secara keseluruhan di Perairan Tambak Lorok, yang tertinggi terdapat pada stasiun 3 dengan jumlah sebesar 4035,7 Ind/L sedangkan pada stasiun 2 dengan jumlah sebesar 2812,7 Ind/L dan kelimpahan terendah terdapat pada stasiun 1 dengan jumlah sebesar 1494,7 Ind/L. Terjadi kenaikan suhu sebesar 5OC dengan nilai suhu mencapai 36,2OC pada stasiun 1 yang memiliki jarak 300 m dari titik outfall, suhu kemudian mengalami penurunan sebesar 3 OC dengan nilai suhu sebesar 33,7OC pada stasiun 2, dan terjadi penurunan pada stasiun 3 hingga nilai suhu sebesar 32,8OC dimana suhu sudah mendekati nilai normal suhu perairan sebesar 31 OC. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa nilai kelimpahan fitoplankton mengalami penurunan seiring dengan meningkatnya kenaikan suhu permukaan laut pada Perairan Tambak Lorok Semarang.One of the utilization of coastal and ocean environment is the development of electric steam power plant since the water required for the operational comes from seawater. The disposal location of the used seawater is in the form of waste heat, streamed into the ocean; therefore it caused the rise of sea-level temperature. The rising sea level temperature will affect the organism on those waters; one of them is phytoplankton. Phytoplankton is an autotroph organism that contains chlorophyll pigment so it can do photosynthesis process using the sunlight. This research aims to study the abundance of phytoplankton in waters around electric steam power plant Tambak Lorok Semarang. The method used in this research is the explorative, descriptive method, while the sampling method is purposive sampling. The highest phytoplankton abudance in Tambak Lorok Waters is located on the third station with 4035,7 Ind/L, while on the second station is 2812,7 Ind/L and the lowest abundance is on the first station with only 1494,7 Ind/L. The increase of sea-level temperature is up to 5OC with the temperature value reached 36,2OC on the first station that located 300 m from the power plant outfall. The temperature then drops 3OC with the value of 33,7OC on the second station. The temperature then drops on the third station with the value of 32,8OC where it’s closed to average sea level temperature, which is 31OC. It can be concluded that the abundance of phytoplankton decreased along with the increase of sea level temperature in Tambak Lorok Waters.

Taman Nasional Sembilang merupakan salah satu taman nasional yang terletak di Sumatera Selatan dan menjadi kawasan mangrove terbesar di barat Indonesia. Sebagian besar wilayah mangrovenya telah mengalami alih fungsi menjadi tambak pasang surut. Hal ini menyebabkan timbulnya kekhawatiran kerusakan mangrove di taman nasional. Salah satu upaya untuk mempertahankan wilayah mangrove adalah dengan melakukan sistem silvofishery, yaitu penanaman mangrove dan budidaya bandeng dilakukan secara bersamaan di tambak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kualitas air dan kondisi nutrien di tambak di daerah restorasi silvofishery di Taman Nasional Sembilang. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode purposive sampling di tambak silvofishery, tambak non-silvofishery, dan badan air sungai di seluruh wilayah taman nasional. Pengukuran dilakukan terhadap parameter kualitas air dan kandungan nutrien khususnya nitrat dan fosfat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kehadiran tanaman mangrove di daerah tambak mampu memperbaiki kandungan oksigen dan pH air tambak. Mangrove juga menunjukkan kemampuan dalam mengikat nitrat yang secara tidak langsung akan mencegah air tambak dari polusi. Namun, kandungan fosfat tinggi menunjukkan bahwa tanaman mangrove muda di wilayah restorasi belum mampu mengikat nutrien ini secara signifikan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa hutan mangrove sangat bermanfaat bagi kegiatan budidaya tambak karena kemampuannya dalam menyerap polutan nutrient. Kata kunci: silvofishery; kolam; nitrat; fosfat; Taman Nasional Sembilang Sembilang National Park is one of the national parks which is located in South Sumatera and became the largest mangrove area in western Indonesia. Most of the mangroves area in this national park has been experiencing conversion to be tidal ponds. This has resulted in concerns on mangrove forest destruction in the park. One of the efforts to maintain mangroves area is by applying silvofishery system, which is mangrove planting and cultivation of milkfish in ponds performed simultaneously. This study aims to investigate the water quality and nutrient condition in the ponds in the area of silvofishery restoration at Sembilang National Park. The study was conducted by purposive sampling method in the silvofishery ponds, non-silvofishery ponds, and river water bodies throughout the park. Measurements conducted on water quality parameters and nutrient content, especially nitrate and phosphate. The results showed that the presence of mangrove in the ponds area is able to improve the oxygen content and pH of pond water. Mangroves also demonstrated the ability to bind nitrates which indirectly will prevent the pond water from pollution. However, the high phosphorus content showed that young mangrove plants in the restoration area have not been able to significantly bind the of this nutrient. The results of this study showed that mangrove forests are very beneficial for aquaculture activities because of its ability to absorb nutrient pollutants.
