“…This finding indicates that anthropogenic activities such as visiting tourists alone do not influence the species' existent, but maybe by other causes. However, the effect of other anthropogenic activities such as domestic waste that runs into the sea inevitably affects the growth of the seagrass [4], [45], [46].…”

“…While in Sanur, the activities range from various tourist destinations and cross-island transportation using boats in the area. Negative impact due to water transportation includes oil spills and dredging, leading to the depletion of seagrass beds in the area [27], [45]. Sanur's higher coastal activity causes disturbances in seagrass development, leading to a lower coverage percentage than Samuh.…”

“…Sanur's higher coastal activity causes disturbances in seagrass development, leading to a lower coverage percentage than Samuh. A review of the percentage of seagrass losses due to various activities has been evaluated [45]. The three most anthropogenic activities that cause seagrass loss were coastal development, land reclamation, and sedimentation due to deforestation.…”

“…The three most anthropogenic activities that cause seagrass loss were coastal development, land reclamation, and sedimentation due to deforestation. Other significant causes of loss include seaweed farming, sand and coral mining, and over-exploitation of associated herbivores [45]. Sedimentation caused by deforestation and excessive land use is also a threat to seagrass growth in Indonesia.…”

“…The carbon concentration of seagrass from the Sanur site was 0.60±0.04g for the above ground and 0.61±0.05g for the below ground. Many studies have been conducted on the rule of seagrass on carbon sink, then reviewed by Watiniasih et al [45] that seagrass production was ended up in below-ground tissue and detritus, measuring about 15% of net CO2 uptake by marine organism [7].…”

Carbon absorption and storage, known as carbon sequestration, have reduced global warming through photosynthesis. Seagrass beds in coastal ecosystems have high plant productivity and are found to have the ability to reduce the effect of global warming due to the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere. Due to the anthropogenic effect, decreasing environmental quality, such as tourism, may affect seagrass diversity and growth, therefore its carbon contents. This study investigates the ability of seagrass species as carbon storage and their diversity in a common tourist destination area referred to as disturbed habitat, located at Sanur and an area that is less disturbed, referred to as undisturbed habitat. Samples were collected from 3 transects 50m in length that were placed on each site. Three plots, each measuring 0.5 x 0.5 m, were employed on each transect. The number of individuals of each species and the percent plant coverage were measured on each plot. Plant biomass and carbon content were extracted in the Lab and divided into below-and above-ground. The result shows that eight species were found at Sanur and only four from Samuh sites. On average, the percentage of plant coverage was higher at the Samuh site. Samuh site. The plant biomass and carbon storage were lower at Samuh than at the Sanur site. Species differences from each site affect the plant biomass, so the carbon content. Anthropogenic activities are not the only ones to determine the carbon storage of seagrass, but rather the species morphology.
