“…The burned and dried peat soil cannot be restored, and the damages are largely irreversible (Pandjaitan and Hardjoamidjojo 1999;Wibowo 2009). The most devastating result of forest and land fire is the emergence of victims due to direct or indirect fire ferocity, as well as the loss of germplasm and the disappearance of plant and soil fauna species that are unlikely to return (Saharjo 2016;Wasis et al 2018) Damage of the peat soil was started from the establishment of the canals and land clearing activities. As a result, peat in the area is becoming irreversible drying and thus there is an inability for the peatland to rewet itself without human intervention (e.g.…”

Abstract. Wasis B, Saharjo BH, Putra EI. 2019. Impacts of peat fire on soil flora and fauna, soil properties and environmental damage in Riau Province, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 20: 1770-1775. Land fires set by communities can result in the death of flora and fauna, damage the soil, and cause smoke disasters. In this study, we focused on the burnt community land in Riau Province, where we conducted a soil analysis through purposive sampling to highlight the effect of the fires on the environment. Our findings showed that fires caused a decrease of peat soil thickness of 10-15 cm, and resulted in 100% mortality of soil flora and fauna. We found a significant increase in the Ca and soil pH after a fire, but total microorganisms, total fungi, and soil respiration are found decreased. Our results strongly showed that the soil and environmental damage of burnt peat soil on community land exceeded the minimum criteria to be classified as "environmental damage" as defined by Indonesian Government Regulation No. 4/2001 (PP No 4/2001) for the parameters of bulk density, porosity, pH, organic C, N, total microorganisms, total fungi, and respiration.

“…Organism activities in the soil could be used as an indicators of soil quality. The benefits of soil organisms are to support the process of nutrient cycling, modification of soil structure, nitrogen fixation, soil decomposition, soil structure dynamics, and symbiosis with plants (Widyati, 2013;Barrios, 2007;Wasis et al, 2018). Coconut shell charcoal on marginal soil (ex-limestone mining soil) could invite the presence of soil organisms.…”

Limestone mining is an activity that can cause damage and negative impact on the environment. Revegetation is needed to be done so that the damaged land condition can be returned in accordance with its designation. Acacia mangium is one of the species that can be used in revegetation of mining area. This study aims to increase the A. mangium growth response at the limestone mining land that can be used as a tool for consideration in revegetation activities. The design used in this experiment was a complete randomized design (CRD) factorial with 2 factors. The first factor was the application of coconut shell charcoal and the second factor was the application of NPK fertilizer. The results showed that the addition of coconut shell charcoal could give effect to the number of nodules with the best dose of 90 g and NPK fertilizer was able to give effect to the growth of diameter and the number of root nodules with the best dose of 15 g.

Areas with natural forest potential that are still preserved have the potential to birdwatching activities, a concept of sustainable tourism to preserve the environment and increase the participation of local communities. Protected forests in the South Malang area are natural forests which are still protected by habitat conditions for wild animals, especially for bird species. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential development of a birdwatching track based on the distribution of birds in the Protected Forest Area of Sumbermanjing Kulon KPH Malang. Make a path of observation and identify the types of birds found in protected forests. Knowing the community's response to birdwatching activities around protected forests through interviews. Data analysis was done by making a map of the distribution of maps and the potential of the observation pathway using the ArcGis 10.3 program. There are 51 species of birds with 3.4 species diversity (H ') in the high category. The potential of 22 birdwatching routes with mostly flat road conditions (59%), sloping (23%) and steep (18%). Bird species that can be found in 6 species of birds for each observation pathway. Knowledge of respondents related to the ability to recognize 3-5 species of birds 40%, recognize 70% birdwatching activities, and 83% of respondents' agree with the development of birdwatching as a tourism.
