Zonation of The Waters of Spermonde Archipelago Base on Nutrient Concentration and Its Impact to Coral Reef Ecosystem

The Spermonde Archipelago is divided into four zones, the division of zones based on distribution coral reefs, distance from mainland, and water depth, but this condition tends to change as a result high anthropogenic activity in Islands. Based this, it very necessary re-zoning Waters nutrient distribution. research method uses integration remote sensing data analysis, field surveys, secondary which are then analyzed using Boleean for re-zoning. results showed that nutrient, case, chlorophyll-a, was concentrated deep zone (near mainland) concentration higher during rainy season, affected reef cover these conditions, Islands waters three namely inner with conditions benthic dominated by fleshy macroalgae, middle low crustose coralline dominance, outer algal turf dominance alga/corals.
