Segara Anakan Lagoon  is a  specific lagoon as dispose industry waste area, i.e. lead waste.  Distribution of lead accumulation in vegetation, soil and water can explain pollution status in Segara Anakan Lagoon.  This study aims to analysis lead accumulation distribution  (soil, water and vegetation),  bioaccumulation factor (BAF), translocation factor (TF), leaf morphometric (the lead effect for mangrove vegetation), and to develop pre-design a mangrove  zoning based on lead accumulation. The results showed that lead accumulation in Segara Anakan Lagoon (SAL) was 0.177 – 0.233 mg/l (water),  0.320 – 0.780 mg/kg (soil),  4.80–8.67 mg/kg (mangrove roots), for stem between 2.48–6.96 mg/kg (mangrove stem), and 1.48–4.76 mg/kg (mangrove leaf).  BAF of mangrove vegetation scored between 22.2–40.1 and TF between 0.9–1.3. The lead accumulation of soil depths were 8.89 mg/kg (0-50 cm) to 0.56 mg/kg (150-200 cm). The effect of  lead accumulation was observed as leaf damage between 2-60 % of surface leafs. And based on best lead accumulation of mangrove vegetation showed that the first mangrove zoning was Rhizophora apiculata, Bruguiera sexangula, Aegiceras corniculatum and  Sonneratia caseolarisKeyword: lead accumulation; mangrove capacity; bioaccumulation factor; translocation factor;  lead effect

Basmati rice is increasingly recognized and consumed in different parts of the world due to its different tastes and nutritional properties. This research focused on determining the cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), Copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn) content in locally grown basmati rice in Pakistan and assessing the risks of these values to human health. Root, shoot and grain samples of basmati rice were taken, along with soil samples from the five regions studied. Metal mean concentrations (mg/kg) in grains fluctuated from 2.70 to 9.80 for Cd, 4.80 to 9.85 for Zn, 1.16 to 1.46 for Cu, 1.84 to 10.86 for Co, 2.05 to 13.07 for Fe, 5.03 to 11.11 for Mn and 3.24 to 13.28 for Ni, respectively. All metal values were within permissible limits except for Cd. The enrichment factor for Cd was highest among all sites. Cobalt and zinc had the highest bioaccumulation factor and translocation factor. The highest enrichment factor was noticed for Cd and the lowest for Cu. The health risk index at all examined sites was less than one. Consistent examination is recommended to limit health hazards instigated by the use of rice polluted with a greater concentration of Cd.

This study was aimed to assess the efficiency of N.oleander to remove heavy metals such as Copper (Cu) from wastewater. A toxicity test was conducted outdoor for 65-day to estimate the ability of N.oleander to tolerate Cu in synthetic wastewater. Based on a previous range-finding test, five concentrations were used in this test (0, 50, 100, 300, 510 mg/l). The results showed that maximum values of removal efficiency was found 99.9% on day-49 for the treatment 50 mg/l. Minimum removal efficiency was 94% day-65 for the treatment of 510 mg/l. Water concentration was within the permissible limits of river conservation and were 0.164 at day-35 for the 50 mg/l treatment, decreased thereafter until the end of the observation, and 0.12 at day-65 for the treatment 100 mg/l. the concentrations of water samples exceeded the permissible limits for 300 and 510 mg/l throughout the observation. Bioaccumulation factor (BAF) for N.oleaner was found to be greater than one for all the treatments. Higher translocation factor (TF) were 1.65, 1.73, 2.61 and 2.34 mg/l for 50, 100, 300 and 510 mg/l, respectively. This study revealed that N.oleander can tolerate and treat Cu concentration in wastewater.

Abstract. Isroni W, Islamy RA, Musa M, Wijanarko P. 2019. Short Communication: Species composition and density of mangrove forest in Kedawang Village, Pasuruan, East Java. Biodiversitas 20: 1688-1692. Mangrove is one of ecosystems located in estuary and shallow coastal waters and its existence has a significant role for life. The aim of this study was to identify species composition and density of mangrove forest in Kedawang village, Nguling Sub-district, Pasuruan District, East Java, Indonesia. Survey method using belt transects was carried at three sampling points. Results of this study showed that mangrove vegetation in Kedawang includes five species from three families, namely Avicenniaceae (Avicennia alba and Avicennia marina), Rhizophoraceae (Rhizophora apiculata and Rhizophora mucronata), and Sonneratiace (Sonneratia alba). At sampling point 1, A. alba dominated with a density of 37 individuals/ha at tree level, 380 individuals/ha at pole level and 3100 individuals/ha at stake level. At sampling point 2, the tree level was dominated by A. alba with 142 individuals/ha, while R. mucronata dominated the pole and stake level with 1300 and 1467individuals/ha, respectively. At sampling point 3, the pole and stake level was dominated by A. alba with 167 and 933 individuals/ha respectively, while A. marina dominated the sapling level with 800 individuals/ha. At all stations, the density at stake level is greater than that tree level. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out conservation efforts in the form of protection combined with restoration by enrichment planting at all study locations to increase the diversity and density of mangrove vegetation.

The decline in mangrove vegetation density and the area of mangrove forests in the coastal province of Riau occurred due to the logging of mangrove forests and the conversion of mangrove forests into other uses such as industrial estates. This study aims to collect a database of mangrove ecosystems which includes the ecological structure of R. apiculata in Riau Province. Collecting data of mangrove vegetation condition was done by transect line and plot. The line transect was drawn from the reference point (the outer mangrove stand) with the direction perpendicular to the coastline to the mainland and made plots according to the category. The results showed that the population of R. apiculata was found in large numbers at Station 3 (350 ind) and a small/small amount was found at Station 1 (137 ind). In addition, Stations 1, 2 and 4 have only one grouping population of R. apiculata based on the Bhattacharya method, while Station 3 has two groupings. Furthermore, the highest R. apiculata density for tree category was obtained at Station 4 (1433.33 ind/m2), saplings category at Station 3 (10488.89 ind/m2) and seedlings category at Station 4 (3666667 ind/m2). Furthermore the water temperature ranged from 28.3 – 30.7°C, salinity 27.3 – 31.3, pH 7.3 – 7.9, DO 5.2 – 6.4 and redox potential ranged from 102 – 124 mV. Based on the standard criteria and guidelines for determining mangrove damage according to the Decree of the Minister of Environment No. 201 of 2004, the population density of R. apiculata at the research location is still classified as medium and refers to the Decree of the State Minister of Environment No. 51 of 2004 concerning Sea Water Quality Standards for Marine Biota, as a whole the range of measured water quality parameters is still within tolerance limits for life mangroves.

Abstract The only place for estuarine-mangroves in Java Island, Segara Anakan Lagoon, experiences the vast decline of mangrove cover. Satellite remote sensing has a critical role in monitoring that change as it allows to record vast areas over time. However, most studies tend to utilize satellite data to investigate the change of mangrove areas into other land-use types rather than identify the mangrove community’s shifting. This study utilized the mangrove vegetation index (MVI) for monitoring the changes of mangrove communities at the life-form level using satellite data. The study used multi-temporal Landsat images as it has historical systematic archive data. The threshold value of the index for each class is defined by referring to the field data. The class referred to the life-form classification consisting of mangrove trees, Nypa, and understorey. The image analysis was conducted using Google Earth Engine (GEE), while R software was used for determining threshold values through statistical analysis. The result shows that the MVI can differentiate between some life forms of mangroves, with the overall accuracy reaching 78.79% and a kappa coefficient of 0.729. Further, the multi-temporal maps showed the decline of mangrove tree areas, which the understorey and Nypa community have replaced.

Abstract Hexavalent Chromium is a major soil pollutant; thus, its remediation from soil deserves due attention. Phytoremediation is an area of active current research which is eco-friendly and economic. Use of leguminous plants for phytoremediation will improve soil quality, fertility and nutrient balance and would help in restoration of natural soil ecosystem. The present study focuses on the use of two commonly growing legumes; Cicer arietinum (RP1) and Vigna mungo (RP2) to explore their remediation potential towards Cr(VI) with concentration ranging from 100-900 mg kg−1 with the growth up to three weeks and were assessed for remediation potential and toxicity parameters. Higher percentage of decrease in root and shoot length was observed in RP2 as compared to RP1. Chlorophyll content was also found to be decreasing with increasing Cr stress in both the species. RP2 recorded higher BCF than RP1. Highest bioaccumulation factor 4.32 was observed in RP2 at 400 mg kg−1 concentration. Translocation factor >1 was observed in both the plants with highest as 1.67 at 600 mg kg−1 in RP2 and 1.93 at 400 mg kg−1 in RP1. Remediation percentage of 72.25% in RP2 at 600 mg kg−1 and 73.13% at 400 mg kg−1 in RP1 was observed. Both the plants showed high tolerance and remediation potential towards Cr(VI) therefore has a great phytoremediation prospect, however, RP2 can be preferred over RP1.

Mangrove ecosystems in coastal areas play an important role in supporting physical, biological, and environmental economic functions. One of the alternatives to preserve the mangrove ecosystem is integrated area management. Bulaksetra Beach is a mangrove area located on the East Coast of Pangandaran which has the potential to be developed as an ecotourism area. The Edu-ecotourism area which combines conservation, education, research, and economy requires good and appropriate management. Analysis of land suitability, vegetation types and environmental conditions is important in making decisions and determining the feasibility of an area. Facilities and infrastructure are one of the elements and indicators that support the success of an Edu-ecotourism area. Observations on water conditions, types of mangrove vegetation, water substrate, weather and topography were carried out to determine the feasibility of developing facilities and infrastructure in the Bulaksetra area. The results showed that the Bulaksetra area was feasible to be developed into an Edu-ecotourism area with an average salinity measurement of 14 ppt, an average rainfall of 46.4 mm - 81.3 mm, a sandy mud substrate and a gentle topography. The zoning of the mangrove ecosystem was carried out based on the main mangrove vegetation in Bulaksetra, namely Avicennia alba and Rhizophora apiculata. The selection of vegetation in the landscape design is adjusted to the natural vegetation and topography in the Bulaksetra area. The supporting facilities for Bulaksetra Edu-ecotourism were designed include mangrove trekking, canoeing docks and mangrove galleries. Facilities are designed according to area size, landscape, and suitability of location. Further studies such as the selection of design and building materials, material costs, construction costs, operational costs and maintenance costs need to be carried out to determine the appropriate building construction. The development of Bulaksetra Edu-ecotourism facilities and infrastructure is expected to contribute to the development of the mangrove ecosystem so that it becomes a center for information, education, and conservation for the public, especially in Pangandaran Regency.

Abstract Aims Soil lead contamination has become increasingly serious and phytoremediation can provide an effective way to reclaim the contaminated soils. This study aims to examine the growth, lead resistance and lead accumulation of mulberry (Morus alba L.) seedlings at four levels of soil lead contamination with or without biochar addition under normal or alternative partial root-zone irrigation (APRI). Methods We conducted a three-factor greenhouse experiment with biochar (with vs. without biochar addition), irrigation method (APRI vs. normal irrigation) and four levels of soil lead (0, 50, 200 and 800 mg·kg−1). The performance of the seedlings under different treatments was evaluated by measuring growth traits, osmotic substances, antioxidant enzymes and lead accumulation and translocation. Important Findings The results reveal that mulberry had a strong ability to acclimate to soil lead contamination, and that biochar and APRI synergistically increased the biomass and surface area of absorption root across all levels of soil lead. The seedlings were able to resist the severe soil lead contamination (800 mg·kg−1 Pb) by adjusting glutathione metabolism, and enhancing the osmotic and oxidative regulating capacity via increasing proline content and the peroxidase activity. Lead ions in the seedlings were primarily concentrated in roots and exhibited a dose–effect associated with the lead concentration in the soil. Pb, biochar and ARPI interactively affected Pb concentrations in leaves and roots, translocation factor and bioconcentration. Our results suggest that planting mulberry trees in combination with biochar addition and APRI can be used to effectively remediate lead-contaminated soils.

AbstractThe aim of the study was to compare the toleration of Poa pratensis, Lolium perenne and Festuca rubra to cadmium contamination as well as the phytoremediation potential of these three species of grass. The pot experiment was conducted in four replications in pots containing 2.0 kg of soil. The soil was contaminated with three doses of Cd – 30, 60 and 120 mg·kg−1. After two months, the aerial parts of plants were harvested. The roots were dug up, brushed off from the remaining soil and washed with water. The biomass was defined and the cadmium concentration was determined in aerial parts and roots. The phytoremediation potential of grasses was evaluated using biomass of grasses, bioaccumulation factor (BF) and translocation factor (TF). All three tested species of grasses had TF < 1 and BF-root > 1. It indicates their suitability for phytostabilisation and makes them unsuitable for phytoextraction of Cd from the soil. Comparing the usefulness of the tested grasses for phytoremediation has shown that the phytostabilisation potential of P. pratensis was lower than that of L. perenne and F. rubra. P. pratensis was distinguished by higher TF, smaller root biomass and lower tolerance for Cd excess in the soil in comparison with the two other test grasses. At the same time, L. perenne was characterised by the smallest decrease in biomass and the largest Cd accumulation in roots at the lowest dose of Cd. It indicates good usefulness for phytostabilisation of soils characterised by a relatively small pollution by cadmium.
