Identifikasi Jenis dan Kelimpahan Mikroplastik pada Perairan Kota Ambon Provinsi Maluku
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers identified and counted microplastics in the waters of Ambon City, Maluku province, Indonesia, finding multiple forms including fibers, filaments, fragments, and pellets. The study provides local data on the types of microplastics present in Indonesian coastal waters, which is needed to track contamination sources and trends.
Perairan Maluku salah satu wilayah perairan di indonesia tepatnya di Indonesia bagian timuryang terjadi secara alami disebabkan oleh proses pengadukan atau pencampuran air dangkal dikarenakan dengan gelombang air laut, arus air, angin dan pasang surut air laut yang memiliki luas 658.294,69 km2 atau 92,4%dari kawasan maluku.Timbulnya sampah diakibatkan dengan mengalirnya sampah dari sungai menuju ke teluk.Mikroplastik adalah partikel plastik berukuran 5mm yang telah terdegradasi.Mikroplastik memiliki beberapa jenis daintaranya fiber,filamen,fragmen,pellet.Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui jenis dan kelimpahan mikroplastik kota Ambon Provinsi Maluku.Pengambilan sampel penelitian ini terdapat VIII titik sampel yaitu titik I desa Hative, titik II desa Hatu, titik III Kota Jawa, titik IV Jembatan Merah Putih Galala, titik V Air Besar, titik VI desa Saunolu, titik VII kapaha, dan titik VIII waikaka.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan kelimpahan mikroplastik tertinggi pada titik I sebsear 1,45 partikel/Liter sedangkan kelimpahan terendah pada titik VII sebesar 0,5 partikel/Liter.
