AbstrakEkosistem lamun merupakan salah satu ekosistem bahari yang produktif. Selain sebagai sumber produktifitas primer di perairan, ekosistem lamun juga memiliki arti penting bagi hewan yang hidup di area padang lamun. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Pesisir Pantai Molas dengan menggunakan metode garis transek kuadrat, yang dilakukan pada bulan Januari – Juni 2011. Analisis data meliputi perhitungan dengan rumus Krebs dan Fachrul, identifikasi jenis lamun dan penentuan indeks keanekaragaman menggunakan Shannon Wiener. Ada lima jenis lamun yang ditemukan yaitu Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, Halophila ovalis, Cymodocea rotundata dan Syringodium isoetifolium. Lamun E. acoroides dan S. isoetifolium memiliki penyebaran terluas, karena ditemukan di seluruh transek pada lokasi penelitian. Jenis yang jarang dijumpai adalah H. ovalis. Jumlah individu yang ditemukan adalah 130 individu. Nilai indeks keanekaragaman di pesisir Pantai Molas memperlihatkan di wilayah ini keanekaragaman jenis lamun sedang dibandingkan 13 lokasi lainnya di Indonesia.Kata kunci: biodiversitas, Molas, rumput lautAbstractSeagrass ecosystem is one of the productive marine ecosystems.

Seagrass-Watch method combined with line transect and quadrat methods were used to collected data. Four seagrass species were identified such as Halophila ovalis, Thalassia hemprichii, Enhalus acoroides and Syringodium isoetifolium. Diversity Index (H') was quite high at 1.2071 and was inversely correlated to the value of dominance (D) at 0.3366, and this was supported by the presence of a uniform species (J') of 0.8707. Important Index Value (INP) was highest at station I comprising E. acoroides species, and station II comprising E. acoroides and T. hemprichii, while the third station comprised T. hemprichii. Spatial distribution of the three stations ranged from random to contagious (aggregated)© Perairan Desa Arakan termasuk dalam kawasan Taman Nasional Bunaken wilayah Arakan Wawontulap yang memiliki luas area padang lamun sekitar 1.943,45 Ha. Data dikoleksi menggunakan metode seagrass-watch yang dikombinasikan dengan metoda transek garis dan kuadran.

ABSTRAKKeberadaan ekosistem lamun di perairan pesisir pulau-pulau kecil berperan penting sebagai habitat dan penyedia sumber daya ikan, serta pelindung garis pantai dan daratan pulau-pulau kecil tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sebaran, komposisi, kerapatan, penutupan dan asosiasi jenis lamun di perairan pulau-pulau kecil Hiri, Ternate, Maitara dan Tidore, Maluku Utara. Pengambilan data dengan menggunakan metode transek garis dan transek kuadrat. Selanjutnya data dianalisis dengan menggunakan bantuan perangkat lunak MS Excel dan XLstat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Pulau Tidore memiliki jumlah jenis lamun terbanyak yakni delapan jenis lamun dari sembilan jenis lamun yang ditemukan di seluruh lokasi penelitian. Tiga jenis lamun yaitu, Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii dan Cymodocea rotundata, menyebar luas dan terdapat di keempat pulau tersebut. Komposisi, kerapatan dan penutupan jenis lamun bervariasi antar stasiun penelitian. Vegetasi lamun yang ditemukan di lokasi penelitian berupa vegetasi campuran yang terdiri dari tiga sampai delapan jenis lamun. E. acoroides banyak ditemukan di Stasiun Mtr1 dan Tte2 tidak berasosiasi dengan spesies lainnya, demikian juga dengan C. serrulata yang ditemukan di Stasiun Mtr2 dan T. hemprichii di Stasiun Tdr2 dan Tdr3. Asosiasi C. rotundata dan Syiringodium isoetifolium terlihat di stasiun Tdr1 dan Hr1, sementara Halophila ovalis dan H. spinulosa  tidak menunjukkan asosiasi dengan jenis lamun lainnya di lokasi penelitian. Secara keseluruhan kondisi lingkungan perairan di keempat pulau tersebut masih tergolong baik dan mampu mendukung ekosistem lamun. ABSTRACTThe existence of seagrass ecosystems in the coastal region of small islands has been playing an essential role as a habitat and the supplier of fish resources, as well as a shore and coastline protector of small islands. This study aimed to  determine the distribution, composition, density, coverage, and associations of seagrass plant in the islands of Hiri, Ternate, Maitara, and Tidore. Data were collected by using line transect method and quadrate transect. Furthermore, data were analyzed by using MS Excel and XLstat software. The results showed that Tidore Island has the highest number of seagrass species namely eight from nine species of seagrasses found in all research sites. Three species of seagrasses, Enhalus acoroides, Thalassia hemprichii, and Cymodocea rotundata, were widespread in all four islands. The composition, density and coverage of seagrass species varied among research stations. Vegetation of seagrasses found in the study site in the form of mixed vegetation consisting of three to eight species. Enhalus acoroides found mostly in Mtr1 and Tte2 stations were not associated with other seagrass species, nor Cymodocea serrulata that found in Mtr2 Station and T. hemprichii at Tdr2 and Tdr3 stations. The associations of C. rotundata and Syringodium isoetifolium were observed at Tdr1 and Hr1 Stations. While Halophila ovalis and Halophila spinulosa showed no association with other seagrass species at the study area. Overall the condition of the marine environment on the four islands is still relatively good and able to support the life of the seagrass ecosystem.

Research of seagrass vegetation structure has been carried out in Waemulang Coastal Waters, South of Buru Regency. This explorative study uses a linear quadrate transect method with 13 transect lines that are mounted perpendicular to the coastline, starting from the highest tide to the lowest tide. The results showed mixed vegetation types with species composition consisting of 5 seagrass species, namely: Enhalus ocoroides, Halophila ovalis, Thalassia hemprichii, Cymodocea serrulata and Cymodocea rotundata, which are members of 2 orders, 2 families, and 4 genera of seagrasses. The species that are most commonly found and have a value of density, relative density, frequency type, relative frequency, percentage of cover, relative closure, and index of important value which is higher, namely Enhalus acoroides, while the lowest, namely Halophila ovalis. In addition, the diversity index of seagrass species is 1,493, or belongs to medium category and the dominance index of seagrass species is 0.239, or there is no dominance of species. It can be concluded that the seagrass vegetation structure in Waemulang Coastal Waters is still relatively stable and Enhalus acoroides is the most influential seagrass species in the growing community. Environmental parameters are very supportive for seagrass growth in this area.
