KUALITAS AIR SITU CIBANTEN BERDASARKAN NILAI INDEKS KEANEKARAGAMAN SHANNON-WEAVER
ABSTRACT: Situ Cibanten used
by local communities especially for bathing and washing. These waters get
pressures by anthropogenic disturbances. Objective of the study is to evaluate water
quality of Situ Cibanten based on their plankton diversity. The study conducted
from April – July 2014 at Situ Cibanten, district Ciomas, Serang Regency.
Plankton sample taken using plankton net no.25 (mesh 55 – 60 µm) and observed
at Aquaculture Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa
University, Banten Province. The research use purpossive sampling methods to
determine the sampling stations. Plankton diversity calculated using Shannon
Weaver diversity index. The results showed plankton diversity index value at
Situ Cibanten range from 0.57 – 1.09, which is classified low diversity index
and fall into the category heavy polluted.
