Abstract
This research aimed to observe the feasibility of the seaweed K. alvarezii cultivation site based on the physicochemical and biological parameters in Indari waters in West Bacan district, South Halmahera Regency in North Mollucas Provinces Indonesia. The calculation of physicochemical parameters towards the depth, clarity, flow velocity, temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, and water sample for analysis on nitrate, phosphate, and the abundance of phytoplankton was conducted in the rainy season and dry season. The measurement of temperature,
pH, salinity, and dissolved oxygen by using a water checker. The depth waters used a depth meter and clarity used a Secchi disc. The analysis of nitrate was conducted by applying the salicylate method, and the analysis of phosphorous was by applying spectrophotometer by means of ascorbic acid. Meanwhile, the charge of suspended solids was calculated using gravimetric method, and calculation of phytoplankton was conducted using filtration method. Furthermore, the feasibility study on site was conducted using a set of Geographic Information System (GIS) of Arc View 3.3. The procedure of the assessment of feasibility level of seaweed K. alvarezii cultivation site was conducted using the feasibility and weighting matrixes. The results of the research showed that all physicochemical parameters of waters, except biological parameter (abundance of phytoplankton), were feasible to support the seaweed K. alvrezii cultivation. As shown from the result of the feasibility study on the seaweed K.alvarezii cultivation site, the potential site in the rainy season was at 47,975.80 m2 (4.79 ha) and in dry season wasat 68,355.64 m2
