Demography Population of Sumatran Surili (Presbytis melalophos ssp. mitrata Eschsholtz, 1821) and The Diversity of Vegetation as Their Habitat in Riparian Site of Geopark Mengkarang Purba, Merangin Regency
Get PDFSurili Sumatera (Presbytis melalophos ssp. mitrata Eschsholtz, 1821) is a primate species commonly found in Sumatra and Kalimantan. Thesubspecies of mitrata are known to be found along the Batanghari River, to the Geopark Mengkarang Purba area. However, data on the number ofspecies in their habitat in Geopark Mengkarang Purba is not yet available. Thus, research on the demographics of riparian populations in riparianareas and the diversity of tree species as a residential habitat in the region is required. The data of this study were collected for ± 3 months in theMerangin Geopark area, West Bangko district in Bedeng Rejo and Rengas Ulu Villages. Geographically this location is located at 0210\u2743.9 "LS,102oo10\u2747,5" BT with wavy topography. All aspects of population demographics were observed with transect strip technique on the 1.000 x 100 meterline for 10 repetitions per day. The number of paths observed was 3 lines representing the sampling intensity of 0,48% of the total area of the studysite. The results showed that the total population of Sumatran Surili found in Geopark Mengkarang Purba area was 29 individuals with sex ratio of1:2 and age structure which was considered progressive for the growth of Surili Sumatera population in Purba Geopark Mengkarang. The level oftree species diversity found in 31 species at the study site is close to high (H \u27= 2,96), most of which are found as fruit trees useful for the life anddevelopment of the Sumatran surili population.Keywords: demography population, Geopark Merangin, Presbytis, riparian site

Stakeholders Perception for Ecotourism Development in Tesso Nilo National Park
Get PDFThe increasing issue of occupational land conflict in Tesso Nilo National Park (TNTN) should be addressed objectively by various stakeholders. One of the important things that can be done to support these efforts is to conduct careful and thorough research on the orientation of stakeholders for the implementation of ecotourism development in TNTN. The stakeholders focussed on this research consist of eight groups of respondents, namely land claiming communities, landowners, landless communities, TNTN centers, local government, forestry services, private companies and non - overnmental organizations. Data collected then analyzed by using One Score One Criteria System. The result of this study indicates that stakeholder perceptions related to various aspects of the TNTN development concept are "somewhat good" (score 5). This provides an interpretation that TNTN\u27s development concept is "somewhat effective and efficient" to be implemented in the development of forest ecosystems in TNTN.Keywords: ecotourism, stakeholders, TNT
Optimal Land Use for Rainfall-Runoff Transformation in Wae Ruhu Watershed
Get PDFFlooding hit the island of Ambon in 2012 and 2013. Many analyzes has been developed to estimate the cause of the flooding. The study aims topredict optimal land management for reducing run-off. The method is simulation of CN value based on spatial analysis on watershed characteristics.The rainfall can’t be managed by watershed. The level of run-off can be determined by CN value that depends on the type of land cover. The resultshows that the land cover has changed about 90 ha, with the higher rainfall intensity is 2.118 in 2013. The result of simulation indicated that tochange of shrub and bare land, mix dryland forest, and secondary dryland forest with agroforestry. Agroforestry can decrease run-off amount 0,86%.The change of land cover and high rainfall are the main factors that caused the flooding in 2012 and 2013. It is necessary to add a rainfallobservation station so that the observation of surface flow can be done well.Keywords: curve number, land cover change, watershed
Identification of Determinant Socio-Economic Variables for the Success of Biodiversity Conservation
Get PDFBiodiversity conservation in national parks has not shown an expected result. Biological natural resources degradation is still on going and its almost entirely due to human activities. Some researchers have indicated that socio-economic aspect is significantly related with the success of conservation. However, the researches have not yet shown in detail, which variabels were related with the succes conservation variables and how significant were the relations. This research was intended to identify the socio-economic variable(s) that would successfully determine biodiversity conservation in national park. The research was conducted in Gunung Halimun Salak Nasional Park, Ujung Kulon National Park, and Gunung Ciremai National Park from July to October 2015 using direct observation, literature study, and interview methods involving 150 respondents, selected based on random sampling in several resorts in the three national parks. Data were analyzed using pearson correlation tests using SPSS PSAW statistic 18. The achievement of biodiversity conservation was determined by the decrease in the number of individual species, increase in the rate of encroachment, increase of illegal natural resource utilization, increase violation of regulation, positive interaction, and biodiversity utilization. Results showed that variables leading to the succesful biodiversity conservation were: 1) determinant variable to decrease in the number of species is religion & customary system; 2) determinant variables to increase in encroachment rate is age and distance; 3) determinant variable to increase illegal natural resource utilization is land ownership; 4) determinant variable to increase violation of regulation is family dependant; 5) determinant variables to positive interaction is age and distance; 6) determinant variable to biodiversity utilization is education.Keywords: biodiversity conservation, determinant variables, national park, socio-economic variable
