Pendugaan Perubahan Cadangan Karbon di Tambling Wildlife Nature Conservation Taman Nasional Bukit Barisan Selatan

Global warming effect can be mitigated in two ways, namely carbon loss reduction or emission and increasing carbon storage within vegetation. Forest can absorb CO2 trough photosynthesis process and sink them in biomass. Tambling Wildlife Nature Conservation (TWNC) as a part of Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park (BBSNP) have been facing land cover change due to encroachment. The study aimed to measure carbon stocks in various land cover and to compare carbon stocks for the whole are of TWNC TNBBS in 2000-2009. Carbon stocks measurement was conducted in TWNC TNBBS during August 8th to October 8th 2009, 50 plots were sampled including nature forest, secondary forest, agroforestry, shrub, Imperata cylindrica , and grassland by purposive sampling method. Soil carbon was not measured in this study. Nature forest has the highest carbon stocks by 178,44 MgC.ha-1, and grassland be a poorest carbon stocks (1,47 MgC.ha-1). During the time between 2000 to 2009, primary forest carbon stock decrease in amount of 457,792.52 Mg along with the decrease in land cover of this forest type. As many as 24.4% of natural forests in 2000 turned into the others type of land use such as a secondary forest of 21.63%, for shrubs 1.61% and 0.06% for agroforestry in 2009. Totally, TWNC TNBBS has loss its carbon stocks as many as 279422 Mg, it's mean the annual average carbon stocks contained in the TWNC TNBBS area decreased by around 27,942.2 Mg (0.72%) per year. Its mean, 1,024,547 Mg CO2 or 102,454.7 Mg CO­2 every year was lose from TWNC TNBBS area

Identifikasi Kinerja dan Kesenjangan Stakeholder dalam Pelestarian Elang Jawa [Spizaetus Bartelsi]

This approach is quite different from existing conservation actions, which are site based and fragmented. Research was conducted since December 2009 until February 2010 in Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park (GGPNP), Telaga Warna Nature Reserve and its surrounding forested areas. The objectives of this study were to: 1) identify relevant stakeholders in Javan Hawk-eagle conservation, 2) identify regulation related to Javan Hawk-eagle conservation, 3) analyze stakeholder performance related to Javan Hawk-eagle conservation, 4) analyze the gaps in Javan Hawk-eagle conservation (gap in normative performance and implemented performance, gap between groups of stakeholders within protected areas and outside area, and gap performance among stakeholders within protected areas, and 5) identify factors causing the gaps. Primary data were collected using indepth interview and field observation. Stakeholders were identified through snowball method. Secondary data were collected through reference study. Data analysis were conducted using spatial analysis, stakeholder identification and analysis, content analysis and gap analysis. Research results recognized two conservation management approaches: 1) species level, and 2) habitat level. These approaches would effectively conserve the existing fragmented and less protected forest blocks as well as boost the participation and synergism of many stakeholders. Further, by using this approach, a gap in conservation management among local conservation agencies would also be discussed for the benefit of the Javan Hawk-eagle's conservation in particular and for biodiversity in general

Evaluasi Kesesuaian Dan Kemampuan Lahan Terhadap Rtrw Kabupaten Kotabaru, Kalimantan Selatan

Spatial planning is prepared to maintain and support the improvement of environment consider to the limited capacity of the environment and its natural resources. The land use which is uncompatible with the Regional Land Use Plan (RTRW) and tend to support economic growth by relying on its natural resources without putting any efforts to increase their environmental values can cause all living organism in danger. One of the environmental issue is spatial problem at District of Kotabaru. This study aimed to evaluate Kotabaru\u27s spatial plans (RTRW) based on suitability of forest functions, land capability, and landcover. The method used in this study is Geographic Information System (GIS) based for spatial analysis: suitability of forest functions, land capability and identification of land cover. The result showed that there are some inconsistencies against the RTRW of Kotabaru, such as 1). The suitability of forest functions is about 188073,11 Ha (27,66% area of study). The region inconsistency happened mostly in karst area toward annual plantation area; 2) Land capability is about 62967,02 Ha (9,28% area of study). This region inconsistency are happened in some land capability classes such as class II, III, IV and VI; and 3). Landcover is about 61779,31 Ha (9.05 % area of study)

Pemetaan Kesesuaian Habitat Owa Jawa (Hylobates Moloch Audebert 1797) Di Taman Nasional Gunung Halimun-salak (Habitat Suitability Mapping of Sylvery Gibbon (Hylobates Moloch Audebert 1797) in Gunung Halimun-salak National Park)

Sylvery gibbon (Hylobates moloch) is endemic species in western part of Java Island. Gunung Halimun-Salak National Park currently is known to be place of viable population for the species. Threatened on habitat is a primary problem for its conservation. Therefore it is an urgent need to study its habitat suitability distribution. The main objectives of the research are: 1) to analyze habitat suitability of sylvery gibbon (H. moloch Audebert) in Gunung Halimun-Salak National Park using Geographical Information System, 2) to examine of its habitat condition. Result shows that habitat suitability of the species can be accurately predicted by using thematic maps of elevation, slope, distance from road, river, and land cover. Based on our prediction, potential habitat for sylvery gibbon in Gunung Halimun-Salak National Park is about 33018 ha, in which classified as lowest habitat suitability (846.27 Ha), intermediate habitat suitability (12,311.9 Ha) and high habitat suitability (24,624.2 Ha). Most of the suitable habitat is under forest cover

Populasi Dan Habitat Lutung Jawa (Trcyphitecus Auratus E. Geoffrey 1812) Di Resort Balanan, Taman Nasonal Baluran

Baluran National Park is a Nature Conserved Area which is one of the habitat of javan langur, however, its data is very limited. The objectives of the research is to study population and its key habitat component. The observation had been done in March-April 2015. Population of javan langur was estimated using Concentration Count Method. The result showed that there were 93 individuals (6 groups) with average size 15,5 ± 5,381. The existence of javan langur in Balanan Resort was supported by biotic factor, including the vegetation for their feeds and cover, such as Walikukun (Schoutenia ovata) dan Pilang (Acacia leucophloea), abiotic factor including altitude, slope, distance from river and distance from disturbance (road and villages). With regard with the habitat component, there are 4 factors of the characteristic habitat that influence, namely biotic factors of regeneration vegetations, abiotic factors, physics factors of vegetations, and biotic factors of climax vegetations
