    Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation Masters of Advanced Studies Capstone Report Tracing The Hunter: Estimating the Abundance of Vulnerable Shark Species in Wakatobi, Indonesia by: Ahmad Hafizh Adyas June 9, 2014 Capstone Advisory Committee Stuart Sandin (Chair), Phaedra Doukakis-Leslie, Imam Musthofa Zainudin, Brian Zgliczynski Introduction Sharks belong to the taxonomic class Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fishes. Even though the majority of chondrichthyans live in the sea, their distribution still covers a wide range of habitats, including freshwater riverine & lake systems, inshore estuaries & lagoons, and coastal waters out to the open sea (Cailliet et. al, 2005). Most species have a relatively restricted geographic distribution, occurring mainly along continental shelves and slopes and around islands and continents, with some smaller species being endemic to isolated regions or confined to narrow depth ranges. However, other species are distributed more broadly, having biogeographic ranges spanning ocean basins. Only a relatively small number of species are known to be genuinely wide ranging. The best studied of these are the large pelagic species, which make extensive migrations across ocean basins. Most of the chondrichthyans are predators; however, some are also scavengers and some of the largest (whale, basking and megamouth sharks and manta rays) filter feed on plankton and small fish. However, none of these fishes are herbivorous. The predatory sharks are at, or near, the top of marine food chains (Cailliet et. al, 2005). Therefore, most shark populations are relatively small compared to those of most teleost fishes. Most shark species are opportunistic and consume a variety of food from small benthic animals such as polychaetes, molluscs, fishes and crustaceans to prey such as marine mammals including seals and cetaceans (Fowler et.

This study aimed to analyze the extent of changes in shallow water habitat of Kaledupa Island, Wakatobi National Park (WNP), for 14 years, from 2002 to 2016. The data of the research were Landsat 8 OLI (2016), Landsat 5TM (2009), and Landsat 7ETM+ (2002), combined with in-situ and WNP data. Mahalanobis classification was used to produce shallow water habitat maps (live coral, dead coral, seagrass, and sand) and detect their changes. The results obtained that the changes occurred from 2002 to 2016 are live coral cover declines from 2217 ha to 2039 ha; dead coral cover goes down from 3327 ha to 2108 ha; sand area increases from 1201 ha to 1346 ha; and the area of seagrass habitat grows up from 4130 ha to 5294 ha.

Writing this report has just been a part of a process; of meeting and connecting with people in a, to me, very different environment. This report therefore is the product of the help many people, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has assisted with this process. To start with I would like to thank the 29 people in Wakatobi that were willing to share their time, views and experiences during interview sessions. These people have provided me with valuable insights of the Wakatobi tourism development process, which enabled me to reflect on in a broader context. Special thanks also to Uddie, Ichal, and Sadar, who have assisted with translating work. I would like to thank WWF for providing me with the opportunity to be based at the WWF- TNC Joint Programme office in Wakatobi, with special thanks to Lida Pet-Soede, Pak Veda Santiadji, Pak Sugiyanta, and Indarwati Aminuddin for making these arrangements.

  • Making Decentralized Coastal Zone Management Work in Indonesia: Case Studies of Kabupaten Konawe and Kabupaten Pangkajene Dan Kepulauan
    MAKING DECENTRALIZED COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT WORK IN INDONESIA: CASE STUDIES OF KABUPATEN KONAWE AND KABUPATEN PANGKAJENE DAN KEPULAUAN By Hendra Yusran Siry A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University. THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CANBERRA APRIL 2009 Declaration This thesis is my own original work. The interpretations and perceptions contained in this thesis are my constructions of the world as I see it. Apart from citations of works of other researchers, the content of this thesis is my own. Therefore, I take responsibility for the limitations of its content and errors within this thesis. Hendra Yusran Siry 28 April 2009 Abstract Coastal governance in Indonesia is entering a new phase with new administration mechanisms, following the changes of political, administrative and fiscal framework resulting from decentralisation policy. For the first time provincial and district governments have mandates, resources, and responsibilities to manage their coastal zones. To this point, only a few studies have been conducted that focus on the analysis of effective coastal zone management (CZM) at district level in Indonesia under the decentralisation setting This dissertation presents a study of decentralized CZM in eastern Indonesia based on case studies of two districts in Sulawesi Island, Kabupaten Konawe in Southeast Sulawesi and Kabupaten Pangkajene dan Kepulauan (Pangkep) in South Sulawesi. The dissertation focuses on these district local governments’ responses to decentralisation policy in managing their coastal zones. This new shift is very significant in the sector of marine and coastal governance in Indonesia. This research applied qualitative methods through in-depth and semi-structured interviews as well as field-site observations.

The Socio-Ecological System (SES) perspective is widely used to identify and explain the relationship between seagrass ecosystem and their dependent community. These relationships can be recognized when humans utilize the seagrass ecosystem that benefits as a dependent community. Further, these utilization patterns can be used as a basis for managing the seagrass ecosystems themselves. This study was conducted to identify and map the relationship between seagrass ecosystem and their communities in Wangi-wangi Island, Kaledupa Island and Tomia Island. The data were collected in June–July 2019 through observation, focused group discussions and interviews with 59 respondents.

  • Integrated European Research Into Cold-Water Coral Reefs
    THE JOURNAL OF MARINE EDUCATION Volume 21 • Number 4 • 2005 INTEGRATED EUROPEAN RESEARCH INTO COLD-WATER CORAL REEFS BY J. MURRAY ROBERTS AND ANDRÉ FREIWALD ALL THOSE INVOLVED IN MARINE EDUCATION, CONSERVATION, OR RESEARCH will at some stage struggle to convince the public or those in power of the value of understanding ecosystems that remain hidden from view at the bottom of the sea. However, in recent decades greater access to survey and visualization tools has given us opportunities to study benthic ecosystems and pass on a shared sense of wonder and excitement to the general public. Here we describe how efforts across the European Union have been focused to study and understand cold-water coral reefs, until recently a curiosity known only to a handful of marine scientists. Imagine you are standing on the deck of a ship in the examined the geological processes underlying the formation northeast Atlantic. To the south is Scotland and to the east of giant carbonate mounds. These massive seabed mounds the convoluted coastline of Norway extends up through the were first discovered just over 10 years ago in the Porcupine Arctic Circle to reach Murmansk in Russia. In the summer, you Seabight, southwest of Ireland. Using geophysical tools to are bathed in 20 hours of daylight, but during the winter, the make profiles through the seafloor, geologists discovered sun will appear above the horizon only briefly. Now imagine clusters or provinces of giant mounds up to a mile in diameter that you are able to peer through 300 m of seawater beneath and 100 m high.
