Stok Sumberdaya Ikan Demersal Laut Dalam di Perairan ZEEI Samudera Hindia Sebelah Selatan Jawa
Abstrak: The objective of this
research was to study about species composition, distribution, and stock
density of deep sea demersal fish in the southern Java of the Indian Ocean EEZ
waters. This research was carried out based on data collected from the survey
conducted between September and October 2004 using Baruna Jaya IV research
vessel. This study was basically
conducted by applying swept area method with stratified random sampling. The result showed that the species
composition of deep sea demersal fish in southern of Java waters were consisted
of 169 fishes, 31 crustaceans and 20 cephalopods and the catch of deep sea
demersal fish was dominated by ashiro (Ophidiidae) about 45 % and hair tail
(Trichiurus lepturus) about 22 %. The widest of species distribution of these
resources in southern of Java waters was Chlorophtalmus nigromarginatus. The
highest abundance of deep sea resources were caught on the depth of 700-1100 m
and the lowest on the depth 200-400 m. Stock density of these resources in
southern off Java waters was ranged from 794-39863 kg/km².
