| Abstract |
Mangrove ecosystems are essential for the life of coastal and marine biota, which have been damaged and have been reforested. Study macrozoobenthos fauna community in mangrove reforestation area of Kepulauan Seribu was conducted in March 2014. This aimed to assess the relationship between environmental factors, distribution, ecology, and distribution patterns of the macrozoobenthos fauna community. The environmental factors were measured in situ, and macrozoobenthos was collected using line and plot transect. The ecology of macrozoobenthos fauna was analyzed based on diversity, uniformity, and dominance index. Distribution patterns were analyzed using Morisita index, and their relationships were analyzed using linear regression. Six species from 3 groups were found in this area. Diversity and uniformity index was classified low, dominance index was high, and the distribution patterns were relatively uniform. In addition, the relationship between the environmental factors (temperature, salinity, and DO) with diversity and uniformity index were positively correlated, and relationship between the environmental factors with dominance index were negatively correlated. The correlation between environmental factors with distribution patterns were positive (form groups), and the correlation between community ecology with distribution patterns were positive. |
