Abstract
Adanya aktivitas pembangunan Megaproyek PLTU Batang diduga akan menurunkan kualitas lingkungan perairan khususnya di sekitar Megaproyek PLTU Batang. Salah satu organisme penting bagi ekosistem perairan adalah fitoplankton yang memaninkan perairan dalam produktivitas primer. Fitoplankton adalah mikro organisme autotrof yang dapat dijadikan sebagai indikator kualitas perairan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui struktur komunitas fitoplankton di Perairan Pantai Megaproyek PLTU Batang. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif eksploratif sedangkan penentuan stasiun digunakan metode purposive sampling. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan sebanyak 3 periode waktu pada November 2020 – Februari 2021 di 3 stasiun. Letak stasiun menjorok ke arah laut yaitu dengan stasiun 1 merupakan perairan paling dekat dengan Megaproyek PLTU Batang, stasiun 2 berada di perairan antara Megaproyek PLTU Batang dengan laut dan untuk stasiun 3 berada di laut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 19 genus fitoplankton berasal dari 2 kelas yaitu 15 genus dari kelas Bacillariophyceae dan 4 genus dari Dinophyceae. Kelimpahan fitoplankton berkisar antara 2.581-10.137 sel/L dengan indeks keanekaragaman 1,61-2,59 tergolong sedang.

期刊介绍:
The Journal of Marine Research publishes peer-reviewed research articles covering a broad array of topics in physical, biological and chemical oceanography. Articles that deal with processes, as well as those that report significant observations, are welcome. In the area of biology, studies involving coupling between ecological and physical processes are preferred over those that report systematics. Authors benefit from thorough reviews of their manuscripts, where an attempt is made to maximize clarity. The time between submission and publication is kept to a minimum; there is no page charge.
