About
The Laboratory of Water Resource Management consists of two sub-laboratory, the Aquatic Ecology sub-laboratory, and the Fisheries Resource Management sub-laboratory. Activities in this laboratory support the rational, responsible, and sustainable management of fishery resources, including research educational activities, and community service. Various studies have been conducted at this laboratory. Research in the sub-laboratory of Aquatic Ecology includes the identification, inventory, and distribution of fish resources, vertebrates and invertebrates, seaweed, mangroves, and other aquatic biota. Zoogeography of fish and other aquatic biota in the river waters of the Yogyakarta region, the biological aspects of fish and management in public waters (lakes, reservoirs, rivers) based on ecosystems, waste management, and the development of conservation areas for fishery resources. In addition, research related to the domestication efforts of endemic fish has also been conducted as part of conservation efforts. Research in the sub-laboratory of Fisheries Resource Management is more focused on the collection of information regarding the distribution of fish and fish larvae in river estuaries and estuarine waters, the development of public waters, and the zoogeography of marine nematodes for the development of biological markers. The laboratory also provides consultation or analysis services for water quality such as dissolved oxygen (DO), free carbon dioxide (CO2), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), alkalinity, hardness, salinity, pH, temperature, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorophyll content, phosphate, and nitrate. In addition to water quality analysis, the laboratory provides identification of aquatic organisms/biota through morphological, meristic, and molecular methods, including plankton, benthos, hydrophytes (water plants), fish, vertebrate and invertebrate aquatic organisms, macroalgae/seaweed, and seagrass. Collaboration has been established among laboratories within the Department of Fisheries, laboratories at other universities both domestically and internationally (Kochi University, Toyohashi University, Swinburn University, etc.), companies, partners, NGOs, and fisheries and marine research institutions in Indonesia. The implementation of the tridharma of higher education in the field of community service, the Laboratory of Aquatic Resource Management provides extension services and training related to the conservation and management of fishery and marine resources. The services are provided both indoors (in the laboratory) and outdoors (during visits) at the activity location.
