Estimation of mangrove sedimentary carbon stock in Deah Raya, Banda Aceh
Mangrove ecosystems are important blue carbon sinks, particularly through long-term carbon storage in their sediments. This study examined sediment bulk density, organic carbon content, and sediment carbon stock in the mangrove ecosystem of Deah Raya Village, Banda Aceh, Indonesia, which has regenerated following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Sediment samples were collected at three depth intervals (030 cm, 3060 cm, and 60100 cm) across three stations. Organic carbon content was determined using the Loss on Ignition (LOI) method, and carbon stock was estimated based on bulk density and carbon concentration.Bulk density ranged from 0.52 to 0.93 g cm and increased with depth, reflecting greater sediment compaction and lower organic matter accumulation. Organic carbon content varied across depths and stations, with the highest value (4.77%) recorded at Station 3 at 3060 cm, likely due to fine root biomass and reduced decomposition in anoxic layers. Sediment carbon stock ranged from 14.81 to 29.20 Mg C/ha, which is lower than national and global averages for mature mangrove systems, indicating limited carbon accumulation in this recovering ecosystem. These findings highlight the influence of vegetation structure and sediment characteristics on blue carbon storage and underscore the need for continued protection to enhance future carbon sequestration capacity.Keywords:MangroveSedimentCarbonBanda Ace

Elevated temperatures increase chlorpyrifos toxicity in nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) larvae
Global warming and the extensive use of chlorpyrifos pose serious threats to the hatching success, growth, and survival of Nile tilapia larvae (Oreochromis niloticus). This study aimed to evaluate the combined effect of chlorpyrifos toxicity and elevated temperatures on tilapia larvae. A completely randomized design (CRD) was used with three temperature levels (28C, 31C, and 34C) and two chlorpyrifos concentrations (0 g/L and 32 g/L), totaling six treatments with three replicates each. Parameters observed included hatching rate, daily growth rate (DGR), specific growth rate (SGR), absolute growth rate (AGR), and malformation rate.Measurements were conducted daily from the first day of hatching until the end of the larval phase (Day 8). Results showed the highest hatching rate (85.33%) was achieved at 34C without chlorpyrifos, while the lowest rate (20%) occurred at 28C with chlorpyrifos exposure on Day 2. DGR and SGR significantly decreased at 34C with chlorpyrifos exposure, reaching 0.0003 g/day and 3.73%/day, respectively, compared to 28C without chlorpyrifos (0.0011 g/day and 10.78%/day). AGR remained stable across all temperatures, showing no significant differences with or without chlorpyrifos. The malformation rate, including abnormalities such as lordosis and kyphosis, increased with higher temperatures and chlorpyrifos exposure, with the highest rate (25%) recorded at 34C with 32 g/L chlorpyrifosKeywords:ChlorpyrifosNile TilapiaHatching RateLarval Growt

Investigation of anisakis infection and allergic potential on largehead hairtail (Trichiurus lepturus) from south coast of Yogyakarta Indonesia
Anisakis spp. are parasites distributed worldwide that often infect marine fish species. This study investigated the prevalence, mean intensity, and Anisakis larvae species, and identified the allergenic potential of T. lepturus caught in the southern coasts of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In total, 50 fish that were caught by the fishermen were measured for length and weight and examined for Anisakis larvae infection. The results showed that larvae were found in the abdominal cavity (87.03%), organs (7.95%), gonads (2.93%), and digestive systems (2.09%). The prevalence of Anisakis infection was high (64%), with a mean intensity of 7.47 larvae/fish. Molecular analysis revealed that the nematode was Anisakis typica. Therefore, it poses a potential health risk to humans. Consuming fish infected with Anisakis can cause allergic reactions even after the fish has been cooked. The identification was done through protein profile antigen detection of fish flesh, both infected and non-infected, using SDS-PAGE. In this study, the heating process was applied (60, 90, and 120) for 15 minutes. The result of allergenic potential detection from T. lepturus infected by Anisakis showed four protein bands correlated with Anisakis allergens Ani s 1 (24 kDa), Ani s 2 (97 kDa), Ani s 3 (41 kDa), and Ani s 7 (139 kDa) in all the infected fish, both fresh and processed.Keywords:AnisakisAllergenInfectionIntensityPrevalenc

The total number of marine debris was 214 items, with the highest composition of plastic debris (96% - 97%) and the lowest was metals. Most of the marine debris was classified as macro debris. The total weight of marine debris was higher at Station 2 (1812.79 g) than at Station 1 (1727.69 g) Furthermore, the density and accumulation values of marine debris at Station 2 were higher (0.12 items.m-2 and 6.043 g.m-2) than those at Station 1 (0.063 items.m-2 and 2.879 g.m-2). The mangrove beach cleanliness index at both research stations was categorized as very clean (Station 1) and clean (Station 2). The relationship between marine debris and mangrove density showed a positive correlation despite low correlation with an r2 value of 0.24. Meanwhile, according to single way ANOVA, there was no significant difference in marine debris abundance between the two stations. Polymer identification through commercial labels implied the dominance of PET, LDPE and PP types at both stations.Keywords:Marine debrisMangrove ecosystemConservation areaMoti islandNorth Molucca
Investigation of environmental factors impact on fish catch in East Java Waters
This study explores the relationship between environmental parameters and fish catch rates for scad, skipjack, and yellowfin tuna in East Java waters from 2019 to 2022. The environmental factors considered include sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a concentration, and Ekman pumping velocity (EPV) as indicators of upwelling. SST and chlorophyll-a data were obtained from Aqua MODIS satellite observations, while wind and seawater density data for EPV calculations were sourced from ERA5 and SMOS-OI, respectively. Fish catch data were provided by the Department of Marine and Fisheries of East Java. Cross-correlation analysis revealed a negative correlation between SST and fish catch, with time lags of 2, 4, and 5 months for scad, skipjack, and yellowfin tuna, respectively. Chlorophyll-a concentration showed a positive correlation with fish catch, particularly for scad (0.6 with a one-month lag) and for skipjack and yellowfin tuna (0.62 with a four-month lag). Additionally, EPV exhibited a positive correlation (0.3 to 0.6) with fish catch. These findings emphasize the significance of SST and chlorophyll-a as indicators of fish population dynamics and offer valuable insights for fisheries management.Keywords:East Java WatersSea surface temperatureChlorophyll-aFishcatchUpwellin
Diversity of macroalgae in the intertidal zone of Iboih Beach, Sabang, Indonesia
The intertidal zone of Iboih Beach in Sukakarya District, Sabang, has significant macroalgae diversity with different substrate variations. This study examined the diversity, distribution, and ecological significance of macroalgae using the quadrat method with purposive sampling technique on three plots measuring 2 2 m (coral, sand, and rock substrates), each replicated three times. Measurements of environmental parameters including temperature (using a thermometer), salinity (refractometer), and depth (Secchi disk) were carried out prior to sampling to ensure that environmental conditions were recorded. The results showed Galaxaura rugosa as the dominant species (INP 63.22), followed by Halimeda opuntia (38.42) and Chaetomorpha crassa (35.27), which showed a preference for hard substrates rich in nutrients. In contrast, Caulerpa sp. had the lowest INP (9.33), indicating specific habitat adaptation. The Shannon-Wiener diversity index (H=1.57) was in the moderate category, with an average INP of 28.575 reflecting a diverse community occupying different ecological niches. The coral substrate supported the highest abundance due to its stability and nutrient availability. This finding confirms the crucial role of substrate characteristics in the structure of intertidal macroalgal communities.Keywords:DiversityMacroalgaeIntertidal zoneSubstrateIboih Beac

Reproductive biology of mackerel scad (Decapterus macarellus Cuvier, 1833) in The North Halmahera waters
Studying the biological reproduction of fish is important for determining the spawning season and providing several management options to protect the fisheries. The study conducted length and biology reproduction sampling of Mackerel scad (Decapterus macarellus) caught by mini purse seine landed in Tobelo coastal fishing port during 20152016. The total sample consisted of 1228 individuals, 526 males and 671 females with size distributions ranging from 12.50 to 29.90 cmFL. Results showed that there were 432 immature and 94 mature male fish and 582 immature and 89 mature female fish. The growth pattern for male fish is negative allometric (b3) while for females is isometric (b=3). The highest GSI value for male was recorded during May and November, while for females it was in May and October. Based on this result, the spawning season of mackerel scad in the North Halmahera waters is predicted to occur in March-May and August-October, by the first and second transition seasons. The study found that the length at first maturity (Lm) was 24.90 cmFL for male fish and 26.41 cmFL for female fish, the Lm bigger than Length at first capture (Lc) of 21.93 cmFL. This means the fish was caught before mature gonads and had a chance to spawn.Keywords:Mackerel scadSmall pelagic fishHalmahera watersGonadosomatic indexSpawning seaso
