| dc.description.abstract | Exploration and exploitation of coastal and marine resources need to be done
properly based on integrated regional management planning. Since western part of
coastal area in Kabupaten Pandeglang - Banten Province has experienced high
environmental pressures due to intensive utilization, it needs to be managed
integrated to achieve optimal results. The objectives of this research are to analyze
coastal and marine resource characteristics, to develop a zonation, management zones
and strategies, and management strategies for western part of coastal area in
Kabupaten Pandeglang. The benefits of this research are optimal management and
increasing community prosperity and local government of Kabupaten Pandeglang.
The research was done in five sub-districts in Kabupaten Pandeglang consisting of
Kecamatan Labuan, Jiput, Pagelaran, Panimbang, and Cigeulis. The materials and
data used were maps, primary and secondary data. The equipments used in the
research were equipments for water and soil sampling, laboratory analysis, coastal
ecosystem observations, and location positioning. The methods consist of natural
resources valuation, development of zonation using geographic information system,
development of management zones and strategies, and strategies for integrated
coastal area management. The results show that land and water resources quality is
low, marine resources quality is low due to marine ecosystem pollution and
degradation. The beach types are dominantly sand beach along Kecamatan Labuan,
mud sediment beach along Kecamatan Pagelaran, and coral reef bed along
Kecamatan Panimbang and Cigeulis. The results of zonation show zones of
settlement in all study area, plantation in Kecamatan Labuan, Jiput and Cigeulis,
forest in Kecamatan Labuan, Jiput and Cigeulis, wetland agriculture in Kecamatan
Labuan, Jiput, Pagelaran and Panimbang, industry in Kecamatan Labuan, Pagelaran
and Panimbang. Spices zone is in Kecamatan Jiput, Panimbang and Cigeulis. Fish
pond culture is in Kecamatan Panimbang, while mangrove and silvo-fishery and
coastal tourism are in Kecamatan Labuan, Pagelaran, Panimbang and Cigeulis.
Marine tourism, coral reef, floating net (KJA) and sea grass cultures are in
Kecamatan Labuan, Pagelaran, Panimbang and Cigeulis. Preservation zone is to be
managed stt-ictly only for science and research purposes, conservation zone is for
limited utilization, and development zone is to be managed for optimal economic
development by considering commodity, sector and infrastructure which are existing
and being developed. Strategies for western coastal zone management in Kabupaten
Pandeglang include increasing of existing probabilities in line with decreasing
weakness and challenges. | id |
