Tulisan ini mengusulkan sejumlah rekomendasi untuk perbaikan pengelolaan sumber daya terumbu karang di wilayah Coral Triangle Indonesia, yang didasarkan atas hasil penelitian pada Tahun 2011, di lokasi-lokasi Coral Reef Rehabilitation and Management Program  COREMAP). COREMAP adalah program pengelolaan sumber daya terumbu karang yang merupakan wahana utama Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan untuk mengimplementasikan kebijakan  pengelolaan terumbu karang. Kebijakan tersebut dilatar-belakangi oleh degradasi yang terjadi pada sumber daya terumbu karang dan besarnyapotensi serta pentingnya fungsi dari aset alam tersebut. Metode yang diacu untuk penyusunan rekomendasi ini adalah analisis Sistem Sosial Ekologis (SES) dan analisis resiliensi yang mencakup perilaku positif dan negatif dalam pengelolaan sumber daya terumbu karang, dilanjutkan dengan analisis Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) terhadap perilaku-perilaku pengelolaan negatif. Data dalam penelitian ini mencakup aspek sistem sosial-ekologi, kerentanan dan resiliensi, yang diperoleh dari 1.244 responden masyarakat yang dipilih secara purposive dan 182 responden tokoh yang diperoleh dengan teknik snowball serta data sekunder yang diperoleh dari kepustakaan dan dokumentasi terkait. Hasil penelitian ini secara umum merekomendasikan 4 (empat) perbaikan terhadap kebijakan pengelolaan yang ada. Keempat rekomendasi tersebut adalah: 1) Peningkatan efektivitas Kawasan Konservasi Laut Daerah (KKLD) atau Taman Wisata Air Laut (TWAL) melalui penguatan kerjasama masyarakat-pemerintah dalam upaya-upaya menciptakan mata pencaharian alternatif, terutama di sektor non konvensional seperti pariwisata; 2) Memfokuskan pada intensifikasi pembentukan lembaga keuangan yang mendukung permodalan usaha dan perbaikan teknologi; 3) Perbaikan sistem koordinasi pihak terkait dalam pengawasan terhadap sumber daya; dan 4) Perbaikan desain program sosialisasi penggunaan alat tangkap ramah lingkungan. Title: STRATEGI DAN KEBIJAKAN PENGELOLAAN TERUMBU KARANG COREMAP DI WILAYAH CORAL TRIANGLE DI INDONESIA TIMUR This paper proposes recommendations to improve management for the resource management in the Indonesian’s part of Coral Triangle Area, based on a research carried out in the COREMAP locations in 2011. COREMAP is a program introduced by the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries to implement its policies on coral reef management and conservation. The policies concern the ongoing alarming degradation of the resource and the disappearing physical existence as well as functions of such natural capital. The research methods were Social Ecological System (SES) analysis and resilience analysis covering both negative and positive management practices, followed by a Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) analysis of the negative management practices to come up with prioritized strategy recommendations. Data used consisted of social-ecological system, vulnerability and resilience aspects, collected from 1.244 respondents representing ordinary citizens selected purposively and 182 key persons which were determined following the snowball sampling technique, and secondary drawn upon the documented files of relevant institutions. In general, the recommendation proposed through this paper are as follows: 1) Increasing the effectiveness Regional Marine Conservation Area and Marine Tourism Park by strengthening community-government cooperation aimed at creating alternative livelihood , particularly the nonconventional sectors, more specifically tourism, 2) Focusing on the intensification of the establishment of financial institutions to facilitate better access for business capital provision and technological improvements; 3) improvement of coordination system among local influential institutions in controlling the resource; and 4) improved design of outreach programs on the use of environmentally friendly fishing gear.

<p>Coral reef ecosystem has diverse shape and stunning beauty. It has high value on both ecological and economical aspect it has productivity greater than other marine life. Local Marine Conservation Area, Bengkayang, West Kalimantan (Lemukutan island, Penata Besar island, Penata Kecil island, Seluas island, Rahdayan island) has a high potential on coastal and marine natural resources especially coral reefs ecosystem. The study was purposed to determine the condition coral reef ecosystem and the diversity of hard corals (Scleractinia). Samples have been taking from 5-7 meters depth in every point using Line Intercept Transect method (LIT). The observation result from the coral reef in Local Marine Conservation Area showed as the followings varies from bad to good (13.82 – 69.00%), but biotic components were found in each area that consist of sediment with percentage of 4.32-37.68% and the rock of 2.57- 38.22%. Hard coral community consists of 35 species including seven families. Genus Acropora as hard coral species is dominating the five islands. The damage of coral reefs that occurs in most of the study area is due to increased suspended material (sediments). </p><p><strong>Keywords</strong>: Coral reefs, Scleractinia, Acropora, LIT, Local Marine Conservation Area, Bengkayang, West Kalimantan.</p>


Indonesia is among wellknown countries which produce high quality fish and fisheries product in the world. This country has 108.000 km of coastline with 17.504 islands. It is estimated that fish resources in Indonesia cover 37% of the world's fish species, whereas coral reef reaches 10% of the total world's coral reefs. This paper reviews about the performance of fisheries growth in Indonesia including: fisheries production, captured fisheries, aquaculture production and marine conservation area. All data was collected from the Ministery of Fisheries and Marine Affairs, Indonesia Central Bureau of Statistic, and several related literatures. The result showed about the recent growth of fisheries and aquaculture production, the latest volume of conservation area, Fisheries Gross Domestic Product, Fishermen Exchange Rate and Cultivator Exchange Rate in 2019.


Olele Marine Park is one of the Regional Marine Conservation Areas (KKLD) which is designated as a conservation area based on the Decree of the Regent of Bone Bolango No. 165 of 2006. As one of the Marine Parks, the Olele KKLD provides a coral reef ecosystem which is an important asset in attracting local and foreign tourists to visit. Seeing tourism activities in the area referred to by monitoring and observing the condition of coral reefs is a big concern to do for the sake of ecosystem sustainability in the future. This study aims to study the extent and extent of coral cover in the Olele Regional Marine Protected Area. This research was conducted in April to May 2019 in Olele Village. The study used the LIT method at three stations at depths of 2 and 4 meters. The results showed station I depth 2 and 4 m wide coral cover 12.8% and 22.9% classified as bad, station II coral cover area 24.1% and 37.5% classified as poor on the surface of 2 m and moderate at height 4 m, while at station III the area of coral cover is 86.5% at a depth of 2 m and 95.4% a depth of 4 m with coral conditions that are still very good. For the index of coral reef diversity in the medium category.

AbstractIncreasing concerns over the environmental impacts of agriculture in Europe has led to the introduction of agri-environment schemes (AES) to help mitigate biodiversity loss. However, effectiveness of AES has been mixed and only partially successful in achieving desired outcomes. To improve effectiveness and reduce high costs, multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) can help support decision-making and determine the most effective management action. Although MCDA has great potential for evaluating policy measures, it rarely considers the context-dependency of species responses to management practices across different landscapes. Landscape simulations can, therefore, be valuable for reducing the uncertainties when predicting the consequences of management actions. A potential suitable simulation system is the Animal, Landscape, and Man Simulation System (ALMaSS), a mechanistic simulation with can improve MCDA with the automatic integration of a species ecology and behaviour and landscape context. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effectiveness of ALMaSS in evaluating AES management practices across different landscapes and estimate their ability to achieve the proposed conservation outcomes of three typical species of conservation interest. In this study, the effect of a particular management strategy on a species was dependent on the landscape context, in our case, a combination of landscape structure and the type and distribution of farms, and varied depending on the metrics being measured. Although we did not aim to make recommendations of particular management strategies, we demonstrate how simulations can be used for MCDA to select between management strategies with different costs. Despite the complexity of ALMaSS models, the simulation results provided are easy to interpret. Landscape simulations, such as ALMaSS, can be an important tool in multi-criteria decision making by simulating a wide range of managements and contexts and provide supporting information for filtering management options based on specific conservation goals.

Abstract Ecosystem-based Fisheries Management is a holistic management approach that integrates the dynamics of an entire ecosystem, including societal dimensions. However, this approach seldom lives up to its promise because economic and social objectives are rarely specified. To fill this gap, we explored how an ecosystem model could better integrate economic and social objectives, using the coral reef ecosystem around Hawai`i as a case study. After meeting with stakeholders and conducting a literature review of policy/strategy documents, we identified societal and ecological objectives and associated performance indicators for which data existed. We developed a social–ecological system conceptual framework to illustrate the relationships between ecological and social state components. This framework was the foundation for the development of the final social–ecological system model which we simulated using an Ecopath with Ecosim model. We simulated four gear/species restrictions for the reef-based fishery, two fishing scenarios associated with the opening of hypothetical no-take Marine Protected Areas for the deepwater-based fishery, and a Constant Effort (No Action) scenario. Despite limitations in the model, our approach shows that when social and economic objectives and social–ecological relationships are defined, we can quantify the trade-offs among the identified societal objectives to support managers in choosing among alternative interventions.

Beralas Pasir is part of the Regional Marine Conservation Area (KKLD), which was established by the Bintan Regency Government with Bintan Regent Decree No. 261 / VIII / 2007. Water tourism activities undertaken by tourists on the island have had an impact on the condition of the coral reefs, as have other factors, such as bauxite, granite and land sand mining activities around the island. This research aims to determine changes in the coral reef habitat cover and the condition of the coral reefs around Beralas Pasir Island with a remote sensing function, using SPOT 4 imagery acquired on June 1, 2011 and SPOT 7 imagery from April 5, 2020. Data collection of environmental parameters related to the coral reefs was also made. The image processing used the Lyzenga algorithm to simplify the image classification process. The percentage of coral live cover around the island ranges from 26% -53%; this has experienced a significant change, from 67,560 hectares in 2011 to 38,338 hectares in 2018, a total decrease in the area of 29,222 hectares. Some of the natural factors found in the research which have caused damage to the reefs were Drupella snails, the abundance of Caulerpa racemosaalgae, and sea urchins. The majority of the coral reef types consist of Non-Acropora: Coral Massive, Coral, Coral Foliose, Coral Encrusting, Acropora: Acropora Tabulate, Acropora Encrusting, and Acropora Digitate

Abstract This forum article intends to discuss the question if using the ecosystem services concept in planning, management and decision-making can impair nature conservation objectives by hiding the intrinsic values of nature through overemphasizing monetary aspects in environmental assessments. The conclusion is drawn that using ecosystem services in a holistic social-ecological system understanding would help to overcome justified criticisms of a too narrow perspective on the real values of nature. The article is referring to and reflecting some thoughts and criticism of “Concerns about the use of ES as a tool for nature conservation: From misleading concepts to providing a price for nature, but not a value” by Morelli and Moller (2015).
