Abstract Far Eastern Curlew Numenius madagascariensis (Linnaeus, 1766) is Endangered species confined in East Asian Australasian Flyway (EAAF) sites. We compiled and summarized all historical numbers of Far Eastern Curlew in Banyuasin Peninsula, South Sumatra, Indonesia. A total of 30 records were documented from 1984 to 2020. The largest number is 2,620 individuals during the migration period in 1988. Unfortunately, the largest number drop to 1,750 individuals in wintering period in 2008, and then drop to 850 individuals in 2019. The numbers indicate that the population decline by up to 62% in the last 35 years (1984 to 2019).

  • Substrate Characteristics and Its Impact On
    Journal of Biological Researches: 19 (82-86) 2014 SUBSTRATE CHARACTERISTICS AND ITS IMPACT ON DISTRIBUTION OF MANGROVE SPECIES : A Case Study In Sungai Barong Kecil In The Sembillang National Park At Banyuasin, South Sumatra Yuanita Windusari1, Sarno1, Edward Saleh2, Laila Hanum1 1Biology Department of Mathematic and Natural Sciences Faculty, Sriwijaya University, 2Technology of Agriculture of Agriculture Faculty, Sriwijaya University e-mail : [email protected] ABSTRACT The composition and density of vegetation in the mangrove areas affected soil conditions. Areas with a smooth distribution of substrat particles contain higher organic matter, and is characterized by the growth of mangrove better and more diverse. How environmental conditions affect the distribution of mangrove substrats observed in this study. The study was conducted in the area of Sungai Barong Kecil and Sungai Barong Besar which is part of the Sembilang National Park, Banyuasin District, South Sumatra. The study was conducted in May and June 2014. Location determined substrats by purposive sampling with particular consideration, and samples were taken using a modified PVC pipe at a depth of 10-30 cm, while the checkered line method with parallel lines used for observation shoreline mangrove distribution. Physical parameters such as salinity environmental chemistry, pH, and moisture. Analysis was performed on substrat particle size, substrat organic matter content, as well as the condition and type of mangrove. The results showed that the Sungai Barong Kecil area tend to have a much smoother distribution of substrat particles (clay content and higher dust). This leads to more easily grow mangroves and mangrove species were found to be more diverse (Avicennia marina, Avicennia alba, Rhizophora mucronata and Avicennia officianalis).

The leguminous tree pongamia (Pongamia pinnata syn. Milettia pinnata) could be utilized to produce biofuel while restoring degraded land. Here, we explore the potential of pongamia as a source of biofuel and for restoring degraded land in Indonesia.

  • Dy on Comprehensive Water Management of Sector D Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Final Report
    The Study on Comprehensive Water Management of Sector D Musi River Basin in the Republic of Indonesia Final Report SECTOR D NATURAL ENVIRONMENT 1. NATURAL ECOSYSTEMS AND HUMAN IMPACTS The population of the Indonesia in the 1950s was just 50 million. In the following 50 years, or within two generations, it grew to 240 million. The Province of South Sumatra experienced large increase of population as well. Under such high demand to support the population, even traditional activities of land use may not be sustainable any more. Human activities must be less affecting to natural systems so that following generation would be able to receive sufficient resource from the rich but fragile mother nature of tropical wet climate. 1.1 Ecosystems of South Sumatra Based on the Koeppen climate zone system, whole South Sumatra falls in the tropical wet climate zone. Topology of Sumatra, however, have evolved diverse tectonic and volcanic events associated with the formation of the Barisan Mountains. Natural Ecosystems of South Sumatra, therefore, directly reflects its geology and geomorphology. In ‘Terrestrial Ecoregions of the Indo-Pacific: a conservation assessment’ (Wikramanayake, Dinerstein, et. al. Island Press, 2001.), the World Wildlife Fund recognizes five (5) Ecoregions in South Sumatra (Figure D1.1.1, Table D1.1.1): Sumatran freshwater swamp forests (WWF index: IM0157), Sumatran lowland rain forests (IM0158), Sumatran montane rain forests (IM0159), Sumatran peat swamp forests (IM0160), and Sunda Shelf mangroves (IM1405). As the names of the ecoregion suggests, the whole area of the South Sumatra was covered by forest prior to the human intervention. Descriptions of each ecoregion are listed in Annex D1.1.1.
