Tunda Island has underwater beauty that has the potential to be developed into a marine tourism object. One important part of this is the fringing reef around the island. Unfortunately, this has been severely degraded. This study aims to determine if reef rubble and split rock artificial reefs have the ability to be a living space for macrozoobenthos and to measure the potential community structure. The research was conducted in August 2018 - November 2018 in the eastern part of Tunda Island, and included monitoring the initial conditions, artificial reef creating and positioning, gathering and analyzing macrozoobenthos data. The macrozoobenthos data collection was carried out from September to November 2018 as 4 observations, and was obtained using the Belt Transect method. In the analysis, the community structure data retrieved was divided into 3 categories: diversity, abundance and dominance. The diversity index obtained ranged from 0.43 – 7.65, meaning that it is of low to moderate diversity. The abundance of macrozoobenthos ranged from 1 - 18 individuals /m2 on the rubble type artificial reef and 2.13 – 4.26 individuals /m2 on the split type artificial reefs, with the most common class being gastropods. On rubble type artificial reefs, 14 macrozoobenthos genera were found to be common, while 13 genera were observed in the split type. The genus found was Culcita sp., Chicoreus sp., Diadema sp., Chelidonura sp., Thrombus sp., Chromodoris sp., Cymatium sp., Trochus sp., Terebra sp., Dardanus sp., Malea sp., Oliva sp., Opheodosoma sp., Actinopyga sp., Conus sp., Enoplometopus sp., Cypracea sp., Lambis sp., and Phylidia sp. The dominance index value was in the range of 0.18-1.00 or low to high on both rubble and split types.

The waters of the Celebes Sea are an area that has quite complex dynamics because it is influenced by several factors, either regionally or globally. This influence certainly has an impact on variations in oceanographic conditions in waters such as Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and sea currents. Currently, there are many observations of oceanographic data, one of which is by using remote sensing methods. The purpose of this study was to determine the seasonal variations in sea surface temperature and sea surface currents in the Celebes Sea using a remote sensing system in a time series for 5 years (2014-2018). The results of this study indicate data on seasonal variation of SST and sea surface currents have an average maximum SST value for 5 years occurring in the eastern season and the second transitional season (May, June, July) with an average value range of 30.6 °C - 31.1 °C and the average maximum sea current velocity for 5 years occurs in the western monsoon with a value range of 0.72 m/s - 0.77 m/s. The high SST value and sea current velocity are caused by the influence of the season which causes variations in the ongoing rainfall, also presumably due to the opposite direction between the monsoon wind and the direction of the main current flowing in the Celebes Sea.

Sea urchin is one of the key biota of coral reef stability. Research on the abundance and distribution of urchins was carried out from January-August 2019 and field data retrieval occurred in March 2019 on Latondu Island, Taka Bonerate. This study aims to determine the relationship between sea urchin abundance with coral reef conditions and sea urchin distribution patterns in the waters of Latondu Island, Taka Bonerate. Observation of coral reefs and sea urchins was carried out at 3 stations with different criteria of coral reef conditions. Retrieval of coral reef data was done using the Point Intercept Transect (PIT) method, while sea urchin observation came about via a transect belt method. The results showed that in the waters of the island of Latondu, there were 133 sea urchins from 7 species of the Echinoidea class, namely Diadema setosum, Diadema antillarum, Echinometra mathaei, Echinotrix calamaris, Mespillia globulus, Heterocentrotus mammillatus and Echinotrix diadema. The largest abundance of sea urchins was found in Station 3 on the southern part of Latondu Island with 12 ind / 50m2, while Station 1 in the northeast and Station 2 in the northwest part showed 5 ind / 50m2. Sea urchin distribution at Station 1 with a value of 0.79 was uniform, Station 2 with a value of 0.80 was also uniform and Station 3 with a value of 0.91 was uniform as well. The relationship between Sea urchin and coral reef was 0.56, which meant the relationship was moderate and directly proportional.

A river is a water ecosystem that plays an important role in the hydrological cycle and functions as a catchment area for the surrounding area. One of the organisms inhabiting river waters is plankton. The purpose of this study was to determine and analyze the structure of the plankton community in the waters of the Cijulang River and to study the relationship between plankton abundance, as well as some physical-chemical parameters of the water. The study was conducted in January, February, and March 2018 on the Cijulang River, at 5 (five) stations with a purposive sampling method. Accordingly, 17 genera were found, from 7 phytoplankton classes consisting of 6 Bacillariophyceae genera, 1 Clorophyceae genera, 2 Cyanophyceae genera, 3 Zygnematophyceae genera, 2 Desmidiaceae genera, 1 Synurophyceae genera, and 2 Fragillariophyceae genera. Also found were 10 genera from 5 classes of zooplankton consisting of 4 genera Maxillopoda, 2 genera Branchiopoda, 1 genera Gastropoda on veliger fase, 1 genera Ostracoda, and 2 genera Copepoda. The abundance of phytoplankton obtained ranges from 11-57 cells / L, while the zooplankton ranges from 8 – 40 ind/L. The diversity index (H ') = 1.397 - 2.275 and dominance index (D) = 0.022 - 0.294. Physical-chemical parameters of the waters, respectively, were 22 °C - 31 °C, light intensity 47.5 cm - 254 cm, salinity 0 ppt - 20 ppt, and dissolved oxygen 6.2 mg / L - 13.4 mg / L. Ammonia concentration 0.03 - 0.08 mg / L. All stations had a phosphate value of less than 0.16 mg / L and a silicate concentration of 0.01 - 0.0581 mg / L.
