STRUKTUR DAN KOMPOSISI VEGETASI PADA KAWASAN LINDUNG AIR TERJUN TELAGA KAMELOH KABUPATEN GUNUNG MAS
Abstrak: Diversity is a
natural characteristic and is the basis of ecological stability, biodiversity
expressed a measure that describes the variation of plant species from a
community that is affected by the number of species and relative abundance of
each species. The presence of trees at a site generally will have a positive
impact for the balance of the ecosystem in a wider scale. In general, the role
of vegetation in an ecosystem associated with the regulation of carbon dioxide
and oxygen balance in the air, improved physical properties, chemical and
biological soil, ground water system settings, and others. The behavior of each
type of tree growth and regeneration of species adaptation to environmental
changes are a result of degradation is very useful information for
consideration in determining the form of further processing of forest. The
purpose of this study was to determine the structure and composition of
vegetation in the protected area forest Telaga Kameloh waterfall area in
subdistrict Kurun district Gunung Mas. Note that the value of diversity type (H
') from all levels of vegetation; seedling, stake, poles and trees, the largest
located in protected areas with high diversity
(H> 3 - 3,5). Richness of Species with the highest seedling of protected
areas with a value of 7,49 in areas with the highest degradation of seedlings
is 5.27. The highest value of evenness of species found on poles level in areas
hedge with the value 0.97 and the area of degradation value with the highest
poles evenness of 0.96. Dominance index (C) the highest found in tree in
protected area 16,73, in the area of degradation value of the highest dominance
on the tree with the value 23,37. Community similarity index or index of
similarity (IS) has a value Of between 44,53% to 77.07%.The vegetation
structure in degradasi area from curve J is inversed, it sign that the comumity
was annoyed. In the protected area, vegetation structure not from curve J inversed.
