Abstract
The study aims to determine the level of
abundance, diversity, uniformity, and dominance of plankton on the Awarange
coast, Barru Regency, Indonesia. This research was conducted from July to
August 2024 using a random sampling method on the coast of Awarange, Barru
Regency, Indonesia, using 3 station points, namely Station 1 (ST 1), namely
Lasonrai Beach, which is also a beach tourist spot; Station 2 (ST 2) around the
Awarange port, Barru Regency; and Station 3 (ST 3) around the Awarange
shipyard, Barru Regency. Plankton sampling using plankton net No. 25. The
samples were then taken to the laboratory for identification. The collected
data were then processed and analyzed using descriptive analysis. The results
of the study showed that the highest abundance and dominance of plankton were
at ST 2, namely the station located around the Awarange port. The highest
plankton diversity at the research location was at ST 3, namely around the
Awarange shipyard, at 0.2014654, and the lowest at ST 2 around the Awarange
port, at 0.1662495. The highest plankton uniformity was at ST 3, namely around
the Awarange shipyard, namely 0.10353275, and the lowest uniformity was at ST
1, namely Lasonrai Beach, a tourist spot, namely 0.07491288. Furthermore, the
level of diversity and uniformity of plankton in the three research locations
is still relatively low, and no plankton dominates.
