Potensi Sumber dan Sebaran Sampah Laut di Ekosistem Terumbu Karang Perairan Pulau Kelapa, Pulau Kelapa Dua, dan Pulau Harapan, DKI Jakarta
Summary
This study identified potential sources and distribution patterns of marine debris in coral reef ecosystems around three islands in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia, finding that human activities on the islands and water currents from nearby Jakarta are the primary drivers of debris accumulation on reefs.
Pollution is a threat to coral reefs in Indonesian waters. The number of coral reefs that are in very good condition denies very little compared to the total area of ??coral reefs in Indonesia. One form of pollution that can threaten coral reefs is marine debris. This study aims to identify potential sources of marine debris that can disrupt the health of coral reefs. the research was carried out in the waters of Kelapa Island, Kelapa Dua Island and Harapan Island, DKI Jakarta. The data used includes current data obtained using secondary data, data on the amount of marine debris,and the water base data substrate obtained using the LIT method. The results showed that the waste was thought to come from community activities, tourism and fisheries. The location that can be a source of marine debris in the research location comes from the mainland of Jakarta Bay. The bottom substrate conditions are in the "bad" to "medium" category. The range of the lowest proportion of live coral cover is 10,8% and the highest live coral cover at 31.1%. The coral reefs in the research location are in a state of worry and their existence is threatened by pollution of marine debris.

This study surveyed the distribution of marine debris and microplastics in the waters and sediments around Tidung Kecil Island in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia. The findings highlight the role of coastal communities and tourism in contributing to local microplastic contamination.
The contribution of estuaries to the abundance of microplastics in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
Researchers found that rivers draining into Jakarta Bay are a major source of microplastics, with polyethylene fragments in the 300-500 micrometer size range dominating, and that spatial variation in abundance across nine estuaries reflects differences in local land use and waste management.
