SEDIMENT DISTRIBUTION BASED ON GRAIN SIZE ANALYSES IN WEDA BAY, NORTHERN MALUKU
Get PDFAn integrated study of sediment distribution was conducted in Weda Bay, Northern Maluku to provide general information on transportation and deposition process based on sediment grain size distribution. The study was conducted during the Weda Bay Expedition using the “Baruna Jaya VII” research vessel in March 13th –22th 2013. Sieving method (granulometric) was used to analyze the grain size. The results indicated that in general the pattern of sea floor sediment distribution was dominated by clay – sand grain-sized. The current speed influenced the sediment transport, deposition, and distribution. Larger fractions of sediment were quickly settled on the sea floor due to stronger currents around Southern area (Widi islands), meanwhile the lesser fractions of the transported away into other places with weaker currents conditions. Keywords: current, the Weda Bay expedition, granulometric, grain size, sediment distributio
MICROHABITAT PREFERENCE OF SEASTAR IN HARI ISLAND WATERS, SOUTHEAST SULAWESI
Get PDFThe objective of this study was to explore the information on the microhabitat preference of asteroidea in Hari Island Waters, Southeast Sulawesi. The specimens were collected in August 2012 and December 2012. The methods used in this study were road sampling technique, freehandpicking, and observation. The geographical coordinate position of the asteroidea and microhabitat were recorded by using GPS and then mapped by using the ArcGIS 10.1. Asteroidea map was overlayed with microhabitat map to determine the microhabitat preference. The study found 9 species of asteroidea belonging to 7 generas, 4 families, and 2 orders. All the asteroidea were relatively common species in the tropical shallow waters. The species were distributed along sides of the island with majority found in the northern side. The dominant species, Linckia laevigata, was found in all microhabitat which had beed adapted to various microhabitat conditions and water fluctuation. Based on area of distribution and population density, seastar tended to use reef coral as its microhabitat preference since reef coral could serve as a food source and habitat protection.

VERTEBRAL DEVELOPMENT AND PROTEASE ACTIVITY OF LARVAL MILKFISH, Chanos chanos Forsskal IN DIFFERENT REARING MEDIA
Get PDFThe milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) seed quality is an important factor for supporting the fisheries industrialization program . The egg fertility and larval rearing management are two main factors to improve the quality of the seed. The aim of this research was to obtain the information about those two indicators on milkfish larvae, reared in different media. About 100,000 eggs were located in 6 units of the outdoor concrete tank with volume of 6 m3. Larvae were reared due to the rearing standard procedure while the feeding management was adapted during larvae development. Two different treatments in larval rearing medium were with and without the addition of molasses, subsequently in triple trials. This study started from hatching day (0 DAH) until the end of larval rearing period (16-18 DAH). The growth parameters such as vertebrae analyses and survival were taken in the end of research periods, while protease assessment was analyzed every day using tyrosine and casein standard methods. The results showed that the molasses addition produced a higher growth (TL 12.95±0.87 mm) and survival rate (87.66±1.52%), better vertebral performance (44-45 segments), and higher protease activity (0.1392-0.3863 U/ml/min) than without molasses addition. The results indicated that molasses addition in larvae rearing medium improved the larvae quality. Keywords: Protease enzime activity,milkfish seeds, molasses, vertebra
