    As part of the life support system, the mangrove ecosystem in the Rawa Aopa Watumohai National Park (TNRAW) has an ecological function as a spawning ground for fish in the waters, a filter for sea water intrusion into the mainland, and an absorber of heavy metals that are harmful to life, habitat for wildlife. migratory bird shelters; as well as barrier to coastal abrasion, hurricane winds and tsunamis. Aim of this study were to determine the critical level of mangroves using the terrestrial method (field survey) and to formulate the factors causing the criticality of mangroves in TNRAW. This research uses  vegetation and descriptive analysis. The results of this study indicate that there are four families and eight species of mangroves in the research location. The four families are Meliaceae, Rhizophoraceae, Avicenniaceae and Combretacea with the dominating family was Rhizophoracea. Mangroves species found were Xylocarpus granatum K., Bruguiera gymnorrhiza L., Rhizophora mucronata Bl., Rhizophora apiculata L., Ceriops decandra, Ceriops tagal, Avicennia alba and Lumnitzera racemosa.  The highest and lowest mangrove species diversity indexes in TNRAW were the seedling and tree strata, respectively with values 1,733 and 1,570. For the critical level of mangrove land measured at the four research stations, it shows that the mangrove ecosystem at the four research station is in a damaged condition. Causal factors of mangrove land critical in TNRAW were economic factors, education and skills, and weak of supervision of the authorities

    The study was aimed to analyze mangrove deforestation and degradation level and to analyze mangrove species composition and diversity in Kaledupa Island Wakatobi National Park. Some analysis done in this study were: GIS analysis with ERDAS and ArcMap software, vegetation analysis by line transect and plot methods. The results showed that mangrove deforestation is happened since 1996 untill 2014 as wide as 214.04 hectares. Mangrove ecosystem at Kaledupa Island was damaged. Vegetation analysis results showed that there found eight species of mangroves, i.e. six species are in the Tanomeha Village, five species found at Horuo-Tampara Village and seven species found respectively at Balasuna and Lewuto Villages. Rhizophora apiculata Bl., Rhizophora mucronata Lamk. Ceriops tagal (Perr.) C. B. Rob. and Sonneratia alba Smith. were dominant tree species at Tanomeha, Balasuna, Lewuto and Horuo-Tampara Villages, respectively. Causative factors of mangrove degradation were economic factors, low education and skills, and lack of control of the authorities.Key words: deforestation, degradation, mangrove ecosystem

    The number of mothers giving birth with sectio caesarae delivery at BLUD R.S H.M Djafar Harun North Kolaka in 2015 was 254 people, then increased in 2016 to 521 people. The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors for the incidence of Sectio Caesarea delivery at H.M Djafar Harun Hospital, North Kolaka. This type of research is an analytic observational study with a case-control study approach. The study population was 68 with a sample of 136 people using the Accidental Sampling Technique. Data analysis using the Odds Ratio test. The results of the risk analysis based on narrow pelvic factors showed the value of OR= 9,681; LL= 2,728; UL= 34,355, and then placenta previa factor showed the value of OR= 6,484; LL= 0,759; UL= 55,385. In conclusion, narrow pelvis is a strong risk factor and placenta previa is not a strong risk factor for Sectio Caesarea delivery. It is hoped that the hospital will seek to identify high-risk pregnancies, complications or pregnancy abnormalities so that they can be detected early so that they are able to more optimally handle complications during childbirth
