Local ecological knowledge (LEK) refers to the knowledge of people in a local community that can be used in assessing environmental conditions as well as reflecting the interaction that occur in an ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to examine condition of coral reef ecosystem based on the LEK’s community in a marine protected area east coast weh island (KKPD PTPW) Sabang. Assessment of the coral reef condition based on the local’s ecological knowledge is justified from the suitability of the area by comparing map of the coral reefs condition based on LEK and observation map of the coral reefs condition during the study. Based on LEK, it is known that in the PTPW Sabang region coral reefs which falls under deteriorated class is found in the northern sea of Kelurahan Kota Atas, while those which falls under good condition class are found in Ie Meule and Ujung Kareng as well as in Anoi Itam except Benteng. Result from the observations done in 13 stations found that sea region near Sumur Tiga, Ujung Kareung and Benteng have a good coral reefs with a coverage range of 51-65 %. While the sea in Ujung Seuke, Anoi Itam and Reuteuk have a moderate coral reefs with a percentage of coverage ranging from 44- 49. Respondents’ perceptions of the coral reef condition during the last 10 years which include 55% respondents in Ie Meule and 74.29% of respondend in Anoi Itam stated that there is an increment of coral reefs coverage.

Destructive Fishing

Coral reefs are one of the typical ecosystems in coastal areas that have ecological and economicvalue. There are many cases of coral reef damage in Salah Nama Island caused by natural andhuman factors. Coral reefs damage is mostly caused by human activities such as water pollution,destructive fishing and using of ship anchors. Activity of devotion society aims to provideinformation and skills to fishermen groups in Salah Nama Island about coral transplantationtechniques, as well as conducting coral transplantation activities as one of the efforts to preservethe ecosystem of coral reefs. Based on the description of the problems and objectives of devotionsociety, the activities that have been done are counseling to the partner fishermen abouttransplantation and coral benefits in ecosystem, transplantation practice and coral transplantationmonitoring.

Reef Ecosystem

The coral reef ecosystem is one of the typical tropical ecosystems with high biodiversity which has an important role both biologically, ecologically, physically as well as socially and economically. Several coral reef areas in Indonesia were reported to have suffered damage, not only due to climate change which has an impact on rising sea surface temperatures and ocean acidification but also due to anthropogenic factors and irresponsible management of marine tourism. This study aimed to analyze the condition of coral reefs based on covering in Pramuka Island, which is one of the famous tourist destinations in the Seribu Islands. The study was conducted using Line Intercept Transect (LIT) method at predetermined coordinate points. The results showed that the dominant coral reef life form was Acropora Submassive (ACS), namely 18.9%, and Acropora Branching (ACB) as much as 12.48%. Besides, the types of life forms found were coral foliase (9.42%), Miliepora Coral (9.2%), Coral Massive (4.8%), Acropora Encrustring (4.24%), and so on. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the condition of coral reefs in Pramuka Island is still relatively good with a total coral cover percentage of 72.38%. Efforts to protect the coral reef ecosystem in this area need to be considered so that its condition can be maintained.

Conservation effort and knowledge on coral reef ecosystem are necessary to protect marine ecosystem. Coral reef ecosystem is very important to support marine biota especially fishes and benthos. The presence of coral reef indirectly support local people income, therefore is is necessary to conserve coral reef ecosystem. District of South Waigeo is one of tourist area as well as preserve area in Raja Ampat Regency of Papua Barat Province. The aim of this study is to identify the current condition of coral reef in Saporken Village of South waigeo District. Data were collected by survey method using coral reefs Point intercept transect method, observation and interviews to determine the social, economic and cultural impact., and measures taken to manage coral reef management in village Saporkren Marine Protected Areas. The results showed that knowledge Saporkren Village community, the conservation community knows about how destructive such arrests are not carried out the bombing, while the traditional way people work is local wisdom. Condition of coral cover in the village of Marine Protected Areas Saporkren in good condition (live coral cover=51%) and very good water quality, flow velocity at high tide ranged from 4.25 to 22.3 cm/sec and the flow velocity at low tide over small ranging from 5.07 to 19.60 cm/sec, salinity ranged from 32–35‰ and wave height ranged from 0.75 m. Based on the results of this study concluded that: Village community know Saporkren conservation activities of local government programs, and the traditional way to preserve coral reef still implemented.Key words: Conservation, coral reefs, Saporkren village, Raja Ampat.

Brandl et al. (Reports, 21 June 2019, p. 1189) report that cryptobenthic fishes underpin coral reef ecosystem function by contributing ~60% of “consumed fish” biomass and ~20% of production. These results are artifacts of their simulation. Using their data and model, we show that cryptobenthic species contribute less than 4% to fish production, calling into question the extent to which they contribute to the high productivity of coral reefs.

Foraminifera telah banyak digunakan sebagai indikator kualitas perairan sekitar terumbu karang di Indonesia berdasarkan perbandingan kelompok foraminifera bentonik tertentu. Studi tersebut diterapkan di sekitar Pulau Tegal, Teluk Lampung yang merupakan salah satu destinasi wisata yang secara tidak langsung memberikan pengaruh terhadap ekosistem terumbu karang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui struktur komunitas foraminifera bentonik kaitannya dengan kondisi perairan terumbu karang Pulau Tegal, Teluk Lampung. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada 16 stasiun penelitian di Pulau Tegal yang mewakili semua sisi pulau dengan variasi kedalaman dari 0 meter hingga 28 meter. Hasil dari penelitian ini ditemukan 6.918 spesimen foraminifera bentonik dengan keanekaragaman yang tergolong rendah. Genera Amphistegina dan Elphidium ditemukan sangat melimpah pada hampir seluruh stasiun. Nilai Indeks FORAM (FI) diatas 4 ditemukan pada 11 stasiun penelitian yang mengindikasikan bahwa sebagian besar perairan Pulau Tegal berada dalam kondisi yang sangat baik dan kondusif untuk pertumbuhan serta pemulihan terumbu karang. Hasil ini sejalan dengan melimpahnya kehadiran kelompok foraminifera yang berasosiasi dengan terumbu karang pada perairan Pulau Tegal.Kata Kunci: Bioindikator, Pulau Tegal, Indeks FORAM, Terumbu Karang, Komunitas.Foraminifera has been widely used as an indicator of the quality of the waters around coral reefs in Indonesia based on the comparison of certain groups of benthonic foraminifera. The study was implemented around Tegal Island, Lampung Bay, which is one of the tourist destinations that influence the coral reef ecosystem. This study aims to determine the structure of bentonic foraminifera communities related to the condition of the coral reef waters of Tegal Island, Lampung Bay. This research was conducted at 16 research stations in Tegal Island representing all sides of the island with variations in depth from 0 m to 28 m water depth. The results of this study found 6.918 specimens of bentonic foraminifera with relatively low diversity. The genera Amphistegina and Elphidium were found to be very abundant in almost all stations. The FORAM Index (FI) above 4 was found in 11 research stations which indicated that most of the waters of Tegal Island were in very good conditions and conducive to the growth and recovery of coral reefs. This result is in line with the abundance of the presence of foraminifera groups associated with coral reefs in the waters of Tegal Island.
