Mangrove ecosystems have a great influence on the sustainability of human life and the environment. The high level of vulnerability of mangrove ecosystems has implications for the importance of quality planning. This study aims to identify the spatial distribution and density of mangrove forests in Gili Lawang using Landsat 9 OLI-2/TIRS-2 satellite imagery. Data processing is done with the help of the QGIS 3.30 application. Data processing consists of band combinations, image classification with the SVM algorithm, classification results accuracy test, NDVI value extract, and reclass NDVI. The results showed that the use of band 564 in Landsat 9 imagery visually resulted in an increase in sharpness in identifying mangrove ecosystems. Classification of objects with the SVM algorithm has overall accuracy and kappa accuracy > 80%. The identified area of Gili Lawang is 432.72 ha, consisting of 37.89 ha of mangroves, 58.11 ha of non-mangrove and 3.75 ha of water bodies. NDVI values at the study sites ranged from 0.068 to 0.87. The maximum NDVI value is found in mangrove objects, while the minimum NDVI value is found in water body objects. Mangrove density in Gili Lawang is dominated by high and very high density. The use of Landsat 9 OLI-2/TIRS-2 imagery in the future is expected to provide positive benefits in providing data and information related to natural resources.
Pine forest management today has not already reached its optimal state. The abnormal pine stand structure will cause a decrease in the production of pine resin. This study aimed to determine the optimal rotation of pine plantation forest and formulated the harvest scheduling to ensured optimal resin production. The determination of optimal rotation was conducted by modifying the Faustman formula to be applied on the condition in forest management in Perhutani. Simulation optimization of harvest scheduling was conducted by linear programming. Optimal rotation of pine forest plantation consists of timber rotation and resin rotation. The highest net present value of timber was obtained at 25 year cycles and the highest net present value of the resin was obtained at 35 year cycles. The inclusion of resin benefit was resulting in lengthening the optimal rotation age. The abnormal stand structure was causing the fluctuations of pine resin production. Thus, the efforts to improve it was by applying the harvest scheduling framework. This study concluded that harvest scheduling which conducted over eight periods has made the abnormal stand structure into the normal forest condition. The existence of normal forest condition led to the certainty of pine resin production sustainability.
Gili Lawang mangroves as a unique ecosystem, unstable, dynamic and complex. The purpose of this study is to determine the eco-structure and natural regeneration of the Gili Lawang mangroves as an initial study in sustainable mangrove forest management. This study used a systematic sampling method with random start, at 6 stations with a total of 60 plots. Seven types of mangroves were obtained, namely A. marina, B. cylindrica, B. gymnorrhiza, R. apiculata, R. mucronata, R. stylosa, and S. alba at the study site. The highest IVI was R. mucronata with a value of 79.34% (seedlings), B. gymnorrhiza with an IVI of 77% (saplings) and tree stage (96.2%). Canopy stratification is type C, D and E. The concentration of horizontal structures is in class 1 (10-16 cm). At the seedling growth stage H' was classified as moderate (1.33), E' was moderate (0.69), and R1 was low (1.13). At the stake level H' classified as Moderate (1.31), E' is moderate (0.67) and R1 is low (1.04) and at the tree level H' is classified as moderate (1.59), E' is high (0.82), R1 is low (0.95). The distribution of mangrove species in Gili Lawang was normally distributed with a distribution pattern of plant species generally clustered, except for S. alba at the sapling growth stage which were scattered randomly. The regeneration status of mangrove species in Gili Lawang is good in speciesA. marina, B. gymnorrhiza, R. apiculata,and R. mucronata, and sufficient/moderate on B. cylindrica, R. stylosa and S. alba.
