Keterkaitan antara Kelimpahan Zooplankton dan Parameter Lingkungan di Perairan Pantai Morosari, Kabupaten Demak

Abstract

Zooplankton berperan sebagai konsumen tingkat pertama, yaitu memindahkan energi dari produsen ke konsumen tingkat dua. Zooplankton dapat digunakan sebagai bahan kajian untuk mengetahui kualitas dan kesuburan suatu perairan yang sangat diperlukan untuk mendukung pemanfaatan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut. Perairan Morosari mengalami degradasi akibat rob dan berkurangnya tanaman mangrove Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan parameter kualitas air dengan kelimpahan zooplankton di Perairan Pantai Morosari, Demak. Penelitian menggunakan metode survei dan penentuan lokasi dipilih dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling, analisis data meliputi kelimpahan, indeks keanekaragaman, keseragaman, dominasi dan analisis hubungan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai korelasi parameter kualitas air yaitu 0,799 (DO), 0,928 (suhu), 0,758 (salinitas), -0,019 (pH), -0,318 (arus). Berdasarkan hasil pengamatan parameter kualitas air terutama DO, suhu, dan salinitas mempunyai kaitan yang erat terhadap kelimpahan zooplankton di perairan Pantai Morosari. Zooplankton acts as the first level consumer, i.e. transferring energy from producers to second level consumers, zooplankton can be used as study material to find out the quality and fertility of water that is needed to support the use of coastal and marine resources. This study aims to determine the abundance of zooplankton, the types of zooplankton and the relation of water quality parameters with the abundance of zooplankton in Morosari Coastal Water, Demak. Research using methods of surveying and determining the location was chosen using the purposive sampling method, data analysis includes abundance, diversity index, uniformity, dominance, and relationship analysis. The results showed that correlation value between water parameters and abundance of zooplankton is 0,799 (DO), 0,928 (temperature), 0,758 (salinity), -0,019 (pH), -0,138 (current). Based on the results of the water quality parameters, especially DO, temperature, and salinity have a close relationship to the abundance of zooplankton in the waters of Morosari Beach.

Relationship Between Environmental Parameters and Manta Ray Occurrence in Raja Ampat Archipelago, Indonesia

“…Meanwhile, zooplankton, which moves vertically, follows the development of phytoplankton and can stay away from light. The vertical pattern generally occurs when zooplankton is discovered near the sea surface and bottom layer at night and towards morning, respectively (Mariyati et al, 2020;Moniharapon et al, 2014). During the day or when the intensity of sunlight is maximum, it remains at the deepest depths (Mariyati et al, 2020).…”

The effect of phytoplankton abundance on zooplankton behavior during the day and night in the waters of the northern Peninsula of the Banyuasin Coast, South Sumatra

“…The abundance of zooplankton is dominated by the phylum Arthropoda with an abundance value of 5640 ind/m 3 (Figure 6), this is because the types of zooplankton identified in the waters of the northern peninsula of Banyuasin are 76% composition and 30 genera. The dominance of Arthropods (Crustacea) in the waters is due to the nature of Arthropods which are omnivores or eat everything such as phytoplankton, fellow zooplankton and detritus so that Arthropods are easier to get food [30]. The most identified zooplankton species were Copepods with levels of presence in almost all research stations and species from Acartia, Calanus, Paracalanus, Oithona, Oncaea were found in all stations both during the day and at night.…”

Hubungan Kualitas Air dengan Struktur Komunitas Plankton Tambak Udang Vannamei

“…Hasil tersebut menunjukan bahwa perubahan ke-limpahan struktur komunitas plankton dipengaruhi oleh kualitas air. Hasil analisis menunjukan adanya hubungan yang sangat kuat antara beberapa parameter kualitas air yang diamati dengan kelimpahan organisme perairan [19].…”
