Plankton Selat Bali
Pemanasan global telah menjadi isu yang hangat akhir-akhir ini. Pemanasan ini menyebabkan ketidakstabilan bumi, meningkatnya frekuensi iklim ekstrim dan semakin sulitnya iklim diprediksi. Demikian juga kondisi dinamika laut dan iklim Indonesia. Perubahan suhu dalam jangka panjang terbukti berpengaruh pada distribusi dan kelimpahan sumber daya laut seperti ikan-ikan pelagis kecil, serta organisme laut lainnya seperti plankton. Sebagai salah satu organisme dalam rantai makanan di laut, yang sangat rentan terhadap perubahan lingkungannya, baik yang diakibatkan oleh manusia (anthropogenic) maupun alam, termasuk perubahan iklim serta minimnya ketersediaan data time series dan monitoring plankton, maka kehadiran buku ini sangat ditunggu para peneliti, praktisi, dan pengambil kebijakan sebagai salah satu referensi penting. Buku ini tidak hanya memberikan informasi tentang plankton namun juga tentang Selat Bali, produktivitas primer, sampling plankton, dinamika plankton, peranan plankton di Selat Bali, dan juga tantangan masa depan.
Kualitas Air dan Pengelolaannya
Kualitas air merupakan ilmu yang sangat penting di bidang Perikanan dan Ilmu Kelautan serta bidang ilmu lainnya yang terkait dengan perairan dan lingkungan perairan. Ruang lingkup kualitas air membahas berbagai faktor penting yang memengaruhi nilai baku mutu air, antara lain parameter fisika, kimia, biologi serta bagaimana cara memonitor dan mengelolanya agar selalu optimal. Beragamnya faktor yang sangat memengaruhi kualitas air antara lain adalah faktor alami (kejadian alam secara alami) dan karena aktivitas manusia seperti industri, pemukiman, pertanian, peternakan, perikanan dan lain-lain. Penulisan buku ini memiliki tujuan untuk memudahkan kalangan akademisi maupun masyarakat umum untuk ...
Mina Bisnis Olahan Rumput Laut
Indonesia adalah produsen utama mariculture, dimana rumput laut mendominasi ekspor rumput laut dunia. Sayangnya, diperkirakan lebih dari 80% masih dalam bentuk raw material (rumput laut kering). Dan ekspor tersebut, Indonesia mendominasi 76% nilai pasar rumput laut dunia hanya dari 3 jenis rumput laut yang menjadi bahan baku utama industri pangan dan nonpangan di dunia. Ironisnya kebutuhan olahan rumput laut domestik untuk agar-agar, karaginan, dan alginate, justru saat ini masih impor. Padahal total produksinya belum terserap untuk pengolahan atau industri domestik. Inilah fakta besarnya peluang bisnis rumput laut baik ekspor maupun domestik. Salah satu UKM yang berhasil mengembangkan produ...
PROSIDING KONFERENSI NASIONAL PERIKANAN (KONASKAN) - Bioteknologi Terapan untuk Meningkatkan Produktivitas dan Daya Saing Sektor Perikanan
Sebenarnya, definisi ilmu bioteknologi diterjemahkan berbeda-beda oleh masing-masing ilmuwan. Namun dari beberapa definisi yang telah dikemukanan mengerucut pada defi nsi dari Primrose dalam bukunya Modern Biotechnology (1987) yaitu penerapan prinsip-prinsip ilmu pengetahuan dan kerekayasaan untuk penanganan dan pengolahan bahan dengan bantuan agen biologis untuk menghasilkan bahan dan jasa. Berdasarkan definisi diatas dapat ditarik pemikiran bahwa akar dari ilmu bioteknologi adalah keilmuan dasar penunjang yang akan memperluas cakupan aplikasi bioteknologi. Oleh karena itu saat ini banyak bermunculan cabang ilmu gabungan yang mengeskplorasi fenomena bioteknologi. Akar keilmuan bioteknologi akan diolah dan direkayasa sedemikian rupa untuk diaplikasikan pada beberapa bidang bioteknologi terapan. Penerapan bidang bioteknologi mencakup hampir keseluruhan kebutuhan hidup manusia, seperti dalam bidang lingkungan dan perairan, pertanian dan peternakan, pengembangan obat, dan masih banyak lagi.
Basic and Applied Zooplankton Biology
The coastal and ocean ecosystem is a significant feature of our planet and provides a source of food for much of life on Earth. Millions of species have been, and are still being discovered in the world’s oceans. Among these zooplankton serve as secondary producers and are significant as they form pelagic food links and act as indicators of water masses. They constitute the largest and most reliable source of protein for most of the ocean’s fishes. As such, their absence or depletion often affects fishery. In many countries, the decline in fishery has been attributed to reduced plankton populations. Furthermore, trillions of tiny copepods produce countless faecal pellets contributing gre...
Freshwater Algae
This is the second edition of Freshwater Algae; the popular guide to temperate freshwater algae. This book uniquely combines practical information on sampling and experimental techniques with an explanation of basic algal taxonomy plus a key to identify the more frequently-occurring organisms. Fully revised, it describes major bioindicator species in relation to key environmental parameters and their implications for aquatic management. This second edition includes: the same clear writing style as the first edition to provide an easily accessible source of information on algae within standing and flowing waters, and the problems they may cause the identification of 250 algae using a key base...
Fish Physiology: Homeostasis and Toxicology of Essential Metals
Homeostasis and Toxicology of Essential Metals synthesizes the explosion of new information on the molecular, cellular, and organismal handling of metals in fish in the past 15 years. These elements are no longer viewed by fish physiologists as "heavy metals" that kill fish by suffocation, but rather as interesting moieties that enter and leave fish by specific pathways, which are subject to physiological regulation. The metals featured in this volume are those about which there has been most public and scientific concern, and therefore are those most widely studied by fish researchers. Metals such as Cu, Zn, Fe, Ni, Co, Se, Mo and Cr are either proven to be or are strongly suspected to be e...
Biological Oceanography: An Introduction
This popular undergraduate textbook offers students a firm grounding in the fundamentals of biological oceanography. As well as a clear and accessible text, learning is enhanced with numerous illustrations including a colour section, thorough chapter summaries, and questions with answers and comments at the back of the book. The comprehensive coverage of this book encompasses the properties of seawater which affect life in the ocean, classification of marine environments and organisms, phytoplankton and zooplankton, marine food webs, larger marine animals (marine mammals, seabirds and fish), life on the seafloor, and the way in which humans affect marine ecosystems. The second edition has be...
Plankton
Healthy waterways and oceans are essential for our increasingly urbanised world. Yet monitoring water quality in aquatic environments is a challenge, as it varies from hour to hour due to stormwater and currents. Being at the base of the aquatic food web and present in huge numbers, plankton are strongly influenced by changes in environment and provide an indication of water quality integrated over days and weeks. Plankton are the aquatic version of a canary in a coal mine. They are also vital for our existence, providing not only food for fish, seabirds, seals and sharks, but producing oxygen, cycling nutrients, processing pollutants, and removing carbon dioxide from our atmosphere. This Se...
Terrestrial Plant Ecology
A textbook covering the entire field, blending classical topics with the results of new research, summarizing yet presenting conflicting evidence and opinions, avoiding jargon when possible, and focusing on being a textbook rather than an exhaustive reference. First published in 1979 and again in 1987; here two new authors have been added to account for the broadening of the discipline. Some basic background in the biological sciences is assumed.
