Kelimpahan dan Keanekaragaman Mikroarthropoda Tanah pada Beberapa Tahapan Reklamasi Lahan di Tempat Pembuangan Akhir (TPA) Puwatu, Kendari Sulawesi Tenggara

Abstrak

This research aims to determine the diversity and abundance of soil microarthropods at several stages of reclamation at the Puwatu Final Disposal Site (TPA), Kendari, Southeast Sulawesi. The method used in this research uses a quantitative descriptive exploration method. There are three stations, namely Station 1, 5-year reclaimed land (Zone C), Station 2, 10-year reclaimed land (Zone B), and Station 3, 25-year reclaimed land (Zone A). Sampling uses a purposive sampling method. Soil samples were taken using a Soil Ring Sampler, and then the soil samples were extracted using a Tullgren Funnel. Identification of microarthropods using a digital stereo microscope. The environmental parameters measured include light intensity, soil temperature and pH, air temperature, and humidity. The results of this research obtained 32 species consisting of the Acarina and Colembolla subclasses. Diversity at station 1 is 2.99, station 2 is 3.18, and station 3 is 3.26. The abundance at station 1 is 430 individuals/m3, station 2 is 760 individuals/m3, and station 3 is 875 individuals/m3. The results of observations show that the longer the land reclamation is carried out, the greater the diversity and abundance
