Abstract

ABSTRAK
Proses abrasi yang terjadi di wilayah pantai dapat dicegah dengan meredam gelombang laut menggunakan vegetasi mangrove. Tingkat kemampuan vegetasi mangrove dalam meredam gelombang dapat ditentukan dengan mengetahui karakteristik gelombang laut yang menuju garispantai. Pelaksanaan penelitian ini diawalidengan survei lokasi pada mangrove rumpun rhizophora sp dan avicennia sp yang memiliki dasar pantai yang landaidanfluktuasi pasang surut yang cukup tinggi.Kemudian pada area tersebut dibuat kanal dengan ukuran 30 x 6,5 x 1 meter, selanjutnya dihitung porositasnya melalui pengukuran diameter, panjang akar dan batang pohon yang terendam air laut. Pengukuran tinggi dan periode gelombang datang serta gelombang yang ditransmisikan dengan alat ukur SBE (Sea Bird Electronic) pada jarak dan porositas tertentu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa padarumpun Rhizophora sp dengan tingkat porositas sebesar 0,9828 memiliki kemampuan meredam gelombang laut  sebesar 57,73 %,sedangkan pada rumpun Avicennia sp dengan tingkat porositas 0,9941menghasilkan redaman gelombang laut sebesar 39,60 %.

 

ABSTRACT
Abrasion process that occurs at the coastal areas can be prevented by minimizing the sea wave  using mangrove vegetation.The ability of mangrove vegetation in minimizing the wave can be determined bystudying  the sea wave characteristic approaching to the coastal line. The observation starts by finding the location of Rhizophora sp class and Avicennia sp class which have flat coastal areas with high tide fluctuation.The canal with size of 30 x 6,5 x 1 meter were made on the area.The diameter and length of tree roots as well assubmerged trunk were measured to define the porosity. The height and period of both incoming wave and transmited wave were recorded by SBE (Sea Bird Electronic) in a particular distance and porosity. The result of observation showed that on porosity of 0.9828 the ability in minimizing sea wave value of rhizopora sp class is 57.73 %, while the avicennia sp class with porosity of 0.9941 is 39.60 %.
