Known as a coastal area, Southeast Sulawesi saving potential coastal tourism oriented by local community but has not been utilized fully, because people in coastal areas do not have financial capacity and expertise to manage or involved in nature-based tourism activities directly. Research was done by qualitative approach to describe, formulate and analyze phenomenon of tourism communications in coastal areas of Southeast Sulawesi. Location of research was done in Southeast Sulawesi province in 2019 on coastal of Pantai Toronipa, coastal of Pantai Nirvana, and the coastal of Pantai Nambo. Research’s Informants consisted of local community, business tourism services, and tourism activist groups. Data collection techniques done by observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research’s results showed the coastal area in Southeast Sulawesi has been formed the society’s understandings of tourism by itself. There are three groups of society, First group are the ordinary people who understand that tourism only a part of recreation, leisurely stroll, traveling, etc; The second group also consists of (a) intelligent tourism consumer group, and (b) the group of exploration and exploitation destinations for business purposes. The third group are group of activists who know the tourism significantly, provide guidance destinations, human resources and traditional institutions to strength community substance as excellence destinations sustainably.

Abstract: Indonesia has the second longest coastline in the world. This condition is considered as a potential to promote thedevelopment of the nations. Nevertheless, some issues emerged related to the development of coastal areas; one of them is thearrangement of the coastal region. The concept of Coastal Zone Planning and Integrated Upper Land Management’is the conceptof sustainable arrangement, integrating land spatial planning and marine spatial planning. This concept is set up to organize anintegrated and comprehensive coastal areas management, including the elements of land and marine water. However, CoastalZone Planning and Integrated Upper Land Management not yet considering the factor of land use, utilization, tenure andownership. To achieve this, it is necessary to set up land use and spatial planning regulations for coastal area, as well as to set upits potential of coastal area planning.Keywords: Coastal, Planning, LandIntisari: Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang menempati urutan kedua wilayah pantainya terpanjang di dunia. Hal ini tentumerupakan potensi yang cukup besar untuk mendorong pembangunan di negara ini. Namun demikian, masih banyak persoalan yangdihadapi dalam pembangunan wilayah pesisir, antara lain masalah penataan wilayah pesisir. Konsep “Penataan Wilayah Pesisir danLahan Atas Terpadu “adalah konsep penataan wilayah masa mendatang yang mencoba mengkompromikan antara Rencana Tata RuangWilayah dengan Perencanaan Ruang Laut. Dengan konsep ini diharapkan penataan wilayah pesisir yang melibatkan unsur daratan danperairan laut menjadi integrative dan komprehensif. Namun demikian, perencanaan Penataan Wilayah Pesisir dan Lahan Atas Terpadubelum mempertimbangkan faktor penggunaan, pemanfaatan, pemilikan dan penguasaan tanah. Dan untuk melengkapinya diperlukankebijakan penataan pertanahan di wilayah pesisir dan penyusunan potensi penataan kawasan di wilayah pesisir.Kata Kunci: Pesisir, Penataan, Pertanahan

Shark fishing activities in Aceh Province take place in the Straits of Malacca and the Indian Ocean. Knowledge and understanding of fisher in the coastal areas of Aceh Province regarding shark protection and conservation regulations are still very limited so that the exploitation of sharks has increased. Observations were made in five coastal areas of Aceh Province. The sample in this study is the shark fish fished of fishermen. This study aims to determine the percentage of conservation status based on IUCN and CITES of sharks fish fished by the fishermen in the coastal region of Aceh Province. Data was collected in April-May 2019 using the survey method. Descriptive analysis results showbased on IUCN one species (10%) in the least concern category (LC), five species (50%) in the category of near threatened (NT), two species (20%) in the vulnerable category (VU), one species (10%) in the endangered category (EN), while one species (10%) in the critically endangered category (CR) and based on CITES two species (20%) in category nonendangered species, but if the trade continues without regulations, with extinction, it will be threatened (the Appendix II CITES). From these results, it can be concluded that the sharks caught in the coastal area of Aceh Province as a whole are in the IUCN red list category.

The coastal region is a very dynamic region because it undergoes two processes, natural and non-natural. The coastline can change due to waves, tides and human activities. Human activities are mostly carried out in coastal areas including reclamation for ports. Coastal area of Cirebon is one of the areas that experiences land addition or port reclamation which causes changes in the coastline. Images interpretation is one way to find out changes that occur in coastal areas by using Landsat 8 OLI and Landsat 5TM imagery. The image extraction method using RGB 432 can see the differences between the sea-land and how the changes has occurred in the last ten years, by overlaying both of them which results in extensive abrasion and accretion that occurs on the coast of Cirebon. The abrasion area is 107.12 Ha and the accretion is 941.17 Ha.

Hormonal treatment of cows at the coastal region of Barisal district of Bangladesh was performed to assess the improvement of pregnancy rate. A total of 100 cows and heifers with irregular history of cyclicity were selected randomly and divided into five treatment groups. The groups were A (treated with anthelmintic), B (treated with anthelmintic, vitamin ADE and multivitamin powder), C (treated with PGF2α), D (treated with GnRH) and E (treated with GnRH and PGF2α). Each group comprised of 20 animals. The age, breed and parity of experimental cows were considered during treatment. In the study, the cows treated with both GnRH and PGF2α (group E) showed significantly (p<0.05) higher estrus (80%) and pregnancy rate (60%) than that of group A, B, C and D. The overall estrus rates of local and crossbred cows were 64% and 70%, respectively and the pregnancy rates were 40 and 52%, respectively. The crossbred cows responded significantly (p<0.05) to hormonal treatment than that of local cows. Parity-2 cows showed higher estrus sign than that of other parities. However, the pregnancy rates were higher significantly (p<0.05) in parity-2 and parity ≥4 cows than that of parity-0, parity-1 and parity-3 cows. The pregnancy rate was also found higher in case of 4 to <5 years old cows than that of 2 to <3, 3 to <4, 5 to <6, and ≥6 years old. It may conclude that the hormonal regimen increases the pregnancy rate as well as decreases the undesired waiting of estrus and conception. Further study with more sample size will reveal the more effective treatment for cows at the coastal areas of Bangladesh.

AbstractImportant aspects for understanding the effects of climate change on tropical cyclones (TCs) are the frequency of TCs and their tracking patterns. Coastal areas are increasingly threatened by rising sea levels and associated storm surges brought on by TCs. Rice production in Myanmar relies strongly on low-lying coastal areas. This study aims to provide insights into the effects of global warming on TCs and the implications for sustainable development in vulnerable coastal areas in Myanmar. Using TC records from the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship dataset during the 30-year period from 1983 to 2012, a hot spot analysis based on Getis-Ord (Gi*) statistics was conducted to identify the spatiotemporal patterns of TC tracks along the coast of Myanmar. The results revealed notable changes in some areas along the central to southern coasts during the study period. These included a considerable increase in TC tracks (p value < 0.01) near the Ayeyarwady Delta coast, otherwise known as “the rice bowl” of the nation. This finding aligns with trends in published studies and reinforced the observed trends with spatial statistics. With the intensification of TCs due to global warming, such a significant increase in TC experiences near the major rice-producing coastal region raises concerns about future agricultural sustainability.

Phytoplankton bloom phenology studies are fundamental for the understanding of marine ecosystems. Mismatches between fish spawning and plankton peak biomass will become more frequent with climate change, highlighting the need for thorough phenology studies in coastal areas. This study was the first to assess phytoplankton bloom phenology in the Western Iberian Coast (WIC), a complex coastal region in SW Europe, using a multisensor long-term ocean color remote sensing dataset with daily resolution. Using surface chlorophyll a (chl-a) and biogeophysical datasets, five phenoregions (i.e., areas with coherent phenology patterns) were defined. Oceanic phytoplankton communities were seen to form long, low-biomass spring blooms, mainly influenced by atmospheric phenomena and water column conditions. Blooms in northern waters are more akin to the classical spring bloom, while blooms in southern waters typically initiate in late autumn and terminate in late spring. Coastal phytoplankton are characterized by short, high-biomass, highly heterogeneous blooms, as nutrients, sea surface height, and horizontal water transport are essential in shaping phenology. Wind-driven upwelling and riverine input were major factors influencing bloom phenology in the coastal areas. This work is expected to contribute to the management of the WIC and other upwelling systems, particularly under the threat of climate change.
