Dr. Djundjunan No. 236, Bandung, 40174 Corresponding author : [email protected] (Received 27 February 2017; in revised from 04 August 2017; accepted 02 November 2017) ABSTRACT: Toyapakeh Strait has a fairly strong ocean current velocity with a velocity between 0.5 m/s – 3.2 m/s. The duration of the strong current (V> 0.5 m/s) ranges from 13-22 hours per day. The location of the strong current occurrence is located to the east of Nusa Lembongan Island, precisely at the stationary current measurement location. Vertical distribution of the direction and velocity currents at this location are not uniform from the top to the bottom, especially in the water column depths of 2 m, 4 m and 6 m, whereas at the water column depths of 8 m to 16 m are relatively uniform. Calculation results of potential electrical power by using the horizontal axis turbine model with a capacity of 35.9 kW (Rite Verdan), 100 kW (Tocardo DD702HT) and 250 kW (Tocardo DD1001HT) show that all of the values have the optimal electric powers, especially during the spring tide, whereas during the neap tide only the turbine with a capacity of 35.9 kW can retrieved an optimal electrical power.

    CHAPTER II THE DESCRIPTION OF PLASTIC DUMPS ISSUES IN BALI’S OCEAN AND COASTLINES On this chapter, the writer would focus on the explanation about how plastic dumps in Bali, Indonesia became one of important issues and concern. The writer argued that was very needed to show a short information about Bali and the plastic dumps issues there. The existence of plastic dumps has caused my responds from both domestic and international community. Many people there have just realized that they are living in danger and this issue has to be risen and problem solving is necessary. A. Bali Geographical Location Bali is one of islands in Indonesia that is very popular among foreign tourists as a favorite destination to visit. Not only among foreign tourists, Bali is also a favorite place for domestic tourists. Enchanting beaches, cool mountains and a culture that was always preserved are attractions that makes tourists always wanted to come back. Bali Island is located between Java Island and West Nusa Tenggara Island. The island has an area of 5,636km². (Geost, 2019) The island of Bali in the east is bordered by the Lombok Strait and West Nusa Tenggara Island. In the West Bali is bordered by the Bali Strait and East Java Province, in the north it borders the Bali Sea and while in the south it borders the Indonesian Ocean. Bali is known as a tropical paradise in Indonesia. Bali's climate is a tropical climate where the change of seasons was influenced by monsoons that change every 6 months. Just like the season that occured in Indonesia in general, the Province of Bali experienced a rainy season in October-April and the dry season started from April to October.

  • Coral Reef Toolkit
    Coral Reef Toolkit Photo by Natalya Zaritskaya on Unsplash.com Coral Reef Toolkit 1 Evolution towards a Rights-based Framework for Coral Reef Protection Earth Law Center and Howell Conservation Fund October 2019 Coral Reef Toolkit 2 Authors: Michelle Bender, Brett Howell, Elizabeth Goldstein, Sofia Garrick, Queena Chen, Mehrose Akhtar, Faisal Patil, Shana Shell Coral Reef Toolkit 3 Foreword: A Framework for Coral Reefs Coral reef ecosystems cover less than one percent of the ocean, yet 25 percent of all known marine species use reefs for food, shelter, and breeding. Additionally, these ecosystems are vital to the livelihoods of millions of people worldwide through food, jobs and coastal protection from extreme weather events. It is 2019 and we have lost half of the world’s coral reefs. Scientists now say the Great Barrier Reef will never be the same. We have two options. We can continue operating within our existing regulatory systems, win some battles, but lose more coral. Or we can adopt a new system that can save the other fifty percent. We can save half of the world’s coral reefs if we embrace novelty, acknowledge our deep connection with the ocean, and adopt holistic, precautionary and future-based deci- sion making. Traditional approaches, both market-based and marine protected areas, have their limitations in providing real protection to coral reef ecosystems. Amongst these lim- itations are property rights constraints, competing interests and uses, and traditional cost-benefit analysis. An emerging legal framework, Rights of Nature, is taking hold internationally to pro- tect ecosystems by taking the ecosystem out of the realm of property, recognizing the ecosystem as a subject of rights, and ensuring its rights are not violated in de- cisions that affect its health.

Stevens Way NE, Seattle, WA 98195 WDB: 280 Central Ave, Fredonia, NY, 14063, Summary Understanding anthropogenic alterations to land use and their effects can inform conservation efforts in tropical biodiversity hotspots. In 2004 the Indonesian Palau Penida Archipelago, off the coast of Bali, was established as an unofficial bird reserve; however, studies of the islands’ land use and avian biodiversity were never conducted and have not been monitored. I surveyed birds across 32 transects in land use categories designated: agriculture, deforested, developed, and forest. Forest transects presented the greatest endemic species richness, but overall, Shannon diversity different significantly among land use categories, particularly forested and deforested. ANOVA indicated exotic bird density was significantly higher than endemic bird density across all transects. Birds serve as a common biodiversity barometer and this study can serve to inform land use management decisions on the Archipelago and throughout reserves and protected areas throughout the tropics. bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.06.20.449190; this version posted June 21, 2021.

  • Ecological Modernization of Marine Conservation
    Ecological modernization of marine conservation A case study of two entrepreneurial marine protected areas in Indonesia Mariska Bottema MSc Thesis July 2010 Wageningen University, Wageningen The photograph on the front cover shows a Gili Trawangan dive boat taking tourists out to dive ‘Meno Wall’, a popular dive site at the neighboring island (source: author). 2 Wageningen University – Department of Environmental Sciences Environmental Policy Group Ecological modernization of marine conservation A case study of two entrepreneurial marine protected areas in Indonesia Mariska Bottema MSc thesis Master Environmental Sciences Supervisor: Dr. Simon Bush Environmental Policy (ENP) 3 4 Abstract The study of Entrepreneurial Marine Protected Areas (EMPAs) as a tool in marine conservation is still relatively underdeveloped: little is known about the challenges and the opportunities which lie in this novel form of marine protected areas where the private sector takes primary stewardship over marine resources. This thesis analyzes the potential role of the private sector in creating durable conservation and restoration agreements to protect coral reefs. It aims to determine how the private sector is able to steer marine conservation through the development of EMPAs; what the functions and characteristics of these entrepreneurs are, how they gain legitimacy for themselves, and in how far they are able to create durable institutions to steer marine conservation. This study applies the theory of ecological modernization to marine conservation; to determine the potential for the wider horizontal shift we are observing in marine governance, presenting the emerging presence of the private sector, to add value to marine conservation and present itself as a durable approach to marine conservation.
