Most of the area in East Buru Utara Regency, Maluku Province are categorized as coastal lowlands, especially the Teluk Kayeli area. This area has the potential to be developed into a destination area for mangrove ecotourism destination due to its natural and preserved mangrove. The purpose of this study was to analyze the suitability of mangrove areas as an object of ecotourism attraction in Siahoni Village, Buru Utara Timur Regency, Maluku Province. The research approach is descriptive quantitative, using the survey method. Primary data including thickness, density, biota, and type of mangrove were collected through field observation at four observation stations, while secondary data including geographical condition, village monograph, and tide data were collected through literature study. Vegetation data were analyzed by measuring the relative density of each plant species and tourism suitability was analyzed by using tourism suitability index (TSI). Also, a SWOT analysis was also conducted to determine the strategy for developing mangrove ecotourism. Mangrove species observed in mangrove ecosystem at Teluk Kayeli, Siahoni Village consisted of Avicennia lanata, Sonneratia caseolaris, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Ceriops tagal, Nypa frutican, Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata, Rhizophora stylosa, Scyphyphora hydrophyllaceae, dan Xylocarpus granatum. The results showed that the TSI of mangroves at the observation station 1, 2, 3, and 4 were 65%, 72%, 72%, and 69%, respectively, and corresponded to the S2 category (suitable). Efforts to improve the suitability index of the mangrove area as an object of ecotourism attraction could be done through rehabilitation and reforestation, hence the environmental attraction and ecological function of the mangrove area could be improved.Keywords: ecotourism, Maluku, mangrove, tourism suitability index
The form of local community wisdom is the basic capital in an effort to conserve forest resources. This research was conducted with the aim of knowing the form and benefits of local wisdom of the Sepa Village community in supporting the conservation of forest resources. The data used in this study are primary data and secondary data. Primary data obtained from questionnaires and in-depth interviews, questionnaires addressed to respondents through interview questions guide. Secondary data were obtained from documents related to the research objectives. Data analysis was carried out in a qualitative descriptive manner. A qualitative approach is used to provide reinforcement from the data obtained through interviews and observations and presented in the form of narrative text. The results of the study explain that the forms of local wisdom of the people of Sepa Country are dusung, sasi, pamali places, and sacred places. The benefit of applying wisdom in supporting forest conservation is that at first glance the terminology is full of mystical beliefs, and seems irrational. However, if you absorb it deeply, how the people of Sepa Country have given lessons about the importance of protecting flora and fauna in the environment in order to maintain balance and preserve nature
The objective of the study is to determine urban forest area, based on carbon dioxyde emission estimation from vehicle traffic and human activities in the city and around. The result of carbon dioxyde emission calculation used as a basic to determine proportional forest area to established. The comprhensive plan of urban forest, covers species and vegetation type that projected to be able to abrsorb the emission. The analysis shows that amount of carbon dioxyde emission from vehicle traffic in the city was 50,186.4 tons/year, meanwhile, carbon dioxyde produced by human respiratory activities was 9,499.47 ton/year. The necessary of urban forest area to absorb the amount of that emission is 12.67 hectare. Calculation of vegetation space approximately 10 x 10 m2, based on assumption that to absorb carbon dioxyde is in the central of city. Therefore to be recommended that the type of the urban forest is recreation forest type, in order to improve aestetic and convenience of the city in the future. The number of species to be planted is consists of 21 species, which 30 % of the forest area will designed as an open space area for community interaction. Therefore, the number of trees to be planted is about 620.56 individu of tree.
Guraping mangrove tourism object is located in North Oba District, Tidore Island City. An area that has an important role in supporting physical, chemical, biological, and social functions. However, with the increase in population, it will certainly affect the ecological sustainability of the mangrove itself due to logging actions carried out by the community. Therefore, in supporting the preservation of mangroves in the village of Guraping, the mangrove area is designated as a protected area and a natural tourist attraction. To support the management of natural tourism in the mangrove area, it is necessary to be supported by information on the feasibility of the Guraping mangrove tourism object. The purpose of this study is to analyze the feasibility of the Guraping mangrove tourism object for natural tourism activities. The research was conducted in July 2022. The research method used is descriptive quantitatif method. Determination of sample points using the purposive sample method, sampling was carried out at 3 observation stations, data analysis using quantitative analysis of mangrove feasibility. The results showed that the mangroves of the Guraping tourism area had an IKW value of 72 with the S2 category ("appropriate") to be developed as a tourist attraction. ABSTRAK Objek wisata mangrove Guraping yang berada di Kecamatan Oba Utara kota Tidore kepulauan.

Masihulan merupakan desa yang kaya akan potensi flora fauna khususnya burung. Jenis burung di desa Masihulan sangat beranekaragam dan berpotensi dalam pengembangan objek Avitourism. Tujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi potensi jenis-jenis burung paruh bengkok di desa Masihulan khususnya pada jalur avitourism. Metode Pengumpulan Data menggunakan Metode Transek Garis (line transect) Metode garis transek ini dilakukan dengan berjalan sepanjang garis transek dan pengamatan dilakukan di kedua sisi transek, kemudian jarak antara lokasi burung yang terlihat dengan pengamat diukur panjangnya. Metode line transect ini diletakkan pada tiga jalur pengamatan dengan panjang jalur sepanjang 300m, 300m dan 500m. Data yang dicatat meliputi jenis burung paruh bengkok, aktivitas, dan jumlah individu. Analisis deskriptif-korelatif digunakan untuk menjelaskan potensi avitourism berdasarkan endimisitas, status konservasi dan tipe pakan burung/feeding guild. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan jenis paruh bengkok yang tergolong menarik karena merupakan jenis endemic dan dilindungi ada 3 jenis yaitu kakatua maluku, nuri tengkuk ungu, dan nuri maluku. Indeks keanekaragaman dikategori sedang (H’=1,8), indeks kemerataan (E=2,02) dan kekayaan (R=0,67) dikategorikan rendah. ABSTRACT Masihulan is a village that is rich in flora and fauna potential, especially birds. The types of birds in the village of Masihulan are very diverse and have the potential to develop avitourism objects. The purpose of this study was to identify the potential for parrot species in the village of Masihulan, especially on the avitourism route. The data collection method uses the line transect method. This line transect method is carried out by walking along the transect line and observations are made on both sides of the transect, then the distance between the visible bird location and the observer is measured for its length. This line transect method is placed on three observation lines with path lengths of 300m, 300m and 500m. The data recorded included the type of parrot, activity, and number of individuals. Descriptive-correlative analysis was used to explain the potential for avitourism based on endicity, conservation status and type of bird feed/feeding guild. The results showed that the type of beak which is classified as interesting because it is an endemic species and is protected there are 3 types, namely the molucensis cockatoo, the purple-napped loryt, and the Moluccan red lory parrot. The diversity index is classified as moderate (H’=1,8), and the index of evenness (F=2,02) and richness (R=0,67) is low.
