Original Title: Productivity and Catch Composition of the Handline Fishing Fleet at Palabuhanratu Nusantara Fishing Port, Sukabumi, Indonesia SDGs Connection: Secondary SDGs: SDG 2 – Zero Hunger; SDG 13 – Climate Action Short Narrative Explanation: This study investigates the productivity and species composition of small-scale handline fishing fleets operating from Palabuhanratu Nusantara Fishing Port in […]
A new study published in the Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology & Fisheries (2025) provides a comprehensive overview of inland water capture fisheries in Jatigede Reservoir, West Java, Indonesia. The research found that most fishers are full-time locals using traditional gillnets, with catches dominated by tilapia, freshwater crayfish, and paray fish. Fishing operations are primarily […]
A groundbreaking study published in Nature Communications (2025) provides a comprehensive analysis of duckweed genomes and microbiomes, offering new insights into the plant–microbe interactions that support its rapid growth and environmental adaptability. Duckweed, one of the world’s fastest-growing plants, holds promise as a sustainable resource for food, feed, bioenergy, and wastewater treatment. By mapping its […]
Original Title: Dataset on the Diversity of Epipelic Diatoms in Sediment Layers as Bioindicators of Aquatic Environment Narrative Explanation This study investigates how tiny microalgae called epipelic diatoms, which live in sediment layers, can serve as natural indicators of aquatic ecosystem health. Conducted in Dumai City, Riau Province—a region heavily impacted by industrial activity along […]
A new study published in AACL Bioflux (2025) highlights the effectiveness of natural feed enriched with calcium and phosphorus in improving the growth and survival of green lobsters (Panulirus homarus) cultivated in submerged cages in Pangandaran Regency. Researchers tested different natural feed types—including anchovies, small shrimp, golden apple snails, and barnacles—and found that anchovies provided […]
This study explores the fragile link between coral reef cover and reef fish abundance in the Karimun District, Riau Archipelago, Indonesia. Coral reefs in this area, vital as habitats and spawning grounds, are under severe threat from sand mining, which increases turbidity and introduces harmful elements like magnesium and potassium. Using Point Intercept Transect (PIT) […]
A new study published in the Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Biology & Fisheries (2025) highlights how the greenhouse effect is accelerating coral reef degradation. Rising sea surface temperatures trigger coral bleaching, a stress response where corals expel symbiotic algae essential for their growth and survival. In addition, sea level rise—driven by melting polar ice and […]
A groundbreaking study from researchers at [insert faculty name] has been published in the Journal of Marine and Island Cultures, showcasing how social carrying capacity (SCC) can guide sustainable tourism development on small islands. Using Pari Island in Jakarta as a case study, the research led by Triyono et al. (2025) reveals that while tourism […]
A recent study on Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) for the implementation of a pelagic fish habitat suitability model in Palabuhanratu Bay, West Java, provides new perspectives on strengthening sustainable fisheries management. The research highlights that improving the ability of fishers to interpret fishing ground maps, alongside better access to oceanographic information, is key to enhancing […]
Bandung, 21/04/25 – Reservoirs in West Java face a serious threat of water pollution that has the potential to cause eutrophication and threaten the sustainability of water resources in the region. In response to this situation, an innovative project called SILARIA (Aquaculture Environmental Innovation System for Water Restoration) has been run by a team from […]
A research by Prof. Yudi Nurul Ihsan has unveiled new insights into the biology and reproductive patterns of the slipper lobster (Thenus orientalis), a highly valued crustacean species from the Scyllaridae family, collected from the West Coast of Sabah, Malaysia. With its growing potential as a candidate for aquaculture, understanding the biological aspects of this […]
