ANALISIS FAKTOR PENYEBAB PERAMBAHAN KAWASAN TAMAN NASIONAL GUNUNG CIREMAI

Dependence of the diversity of aquatic biota with water quality is typical of interaction and mutual influence. Various development activities in a watershed is now being polluted waters. Gold mining activities as open-pit mining activities have a high potential for pollution, especially water turbidity due to sediment erosion at the site of drilling / excavation of land and other open land. Problem of pollution control efforts, particularly in the area of Natarang Mining L.td should do well because in these areas flows Samuong River and its tributaries, which still has a high diversity of aquatic biota. The trend increase in water turbidity, especially seen in the rainy season in Semuong River and its tributaries which in the long term could reduce the density and diversity of aquatic biota, whether plankton, benthos and fish.

MANAJEMEN KOLABORASI DALAM RANGKA RESOLUSI KONFLIK DI TAMAN NASIONAL KELIMUTU

As a new nature preservation area in West Java, the Gunung Ciremai National Park still need much supports to reach its optimum function; including ecotourism activities. Therefore, an ecotourism resource evaluation had been done in order to identify its ecotourism potentials. Amongst so many ecotourism objects in this area, the Elang Jawa (Spizateus bartelsi), Orchidae and the Situ Sangiang (Lake Sangiang) had the highest value for ecotourism attractions due to the criteria and indicators that were applied in the assessment. Further, in term of management perspectives, the research found that the circulation facilities in the area had become the most crucial problem for visitors to access and enjoy many ecotourism resources in the national park. Keywords: national park, ecotourism, ecotourism resources evaluationThis study aimed to reveal the potential of big mammals as komodo’s preys in Rinca Island, Komodo National Park. Population density, sex ratio, age structure and distribution of the komodo’s preys were collected using line transect method, and the vegetation were analyzed using line square method. A total of five species of big mammals were recorded as preys of komodo on the island, and among them were Timor deer and water buffalo which were the most important food sources for komodo. Long tailed macaque, wild horse, and wild boar were the alternative food sources for komodo. Komodo ate whenever there was the opportunity, and it usually attack animals in the savanna or water sources, since these areas were important for big mammals.

Hambatan Implementasi Kebijakan Hutan Tanaman Rakyat Di Batu Ampar, Propinsi Kalimantan Barat

Mangrove utilization as raw material for charcoal by the people ofBatu Ampar was classified as illegal action, since the raw materials were taken from protected forests. Conversely, the existence of production forest and Community-based Plantation Forest (HTR) schemes have not become a solution to these problems. The aim of the research is to determine the history of utilization permit of mangrove forests as a source of raw material for charcoal by community and to analyze the constraints of the HTR policy implementation in Batu Ampar. This research was using quantitative and qualitative approaches. The results showed that the efforts to legalize business by community had been undertaken several times, but often collide with policies related to the dynamics of change in the status and functions offorest area in Kubu Raya District. Barriers to implementation ofthe HTR were: (1) mangrove forest which have potential for mangrove utilization as charcoals raw material was still constrained with its status and function as Protection Forest; (2) lack ofcommunity knowledge on the regulations; (3) low quality human resources and the absence ofstrict sanctions; and (4) most ofthe tasks and functions ofgovernment agencies have not been implemented.

Landuse Conflicts Analysis at Mount Halimun Salak National Park

The purpose of this research is to analyze the spatial conflict between Gunung Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) area and the regency area around the national park.The spatial approach was used to analyse potential of spatial conflict in that region.The management TNGHS still face constraints related to the extent of forest area that could potentially conflict with the spatial three counties around TNGHS, namely Lebak, Bogor, and Sukabumi Districts. The absence of an agreement between the Ministry of Forestry and the local governments to synchronize the National Park boundary into the District Spatial Planning is still a big problem facing by the Management of the TNGHS.Therefore, conservation-based community development model must be designed properly.
