Abstract

Aim of this research is to know the composition, community structure and survivality of ground arthropod in restoration area of Talangagung edutourism landfill (TPA Wisata Edukasi Talangagung). Arthopod survey was conducted with four methods, yellow pan trap, pit fall trap, berlesetullgren, and sweep net. The research was done in four different locations with twice repetition. Survey location was devided in three zone, which is zone one with 10 years restoration, zone two with five years restoration, and zone three which not yet restored, and reference site. Abiotic factor which observed in this research such as light intensity, humidity, and air temperature. Analysis of arthropod diversity and community structure in each site was calculated from importance value index (IVI) and diversity index (Shannon Wienner Index). The results show that diversity of ground arthropod in zone one, two, three, and reference site was on medium level which each score 1.9, 1.87, 1.71, and 2.08. Community structure with dominant pattern showed with IVI from Acrididae in zone one and zone three with IVI 67.2 % and 53.5 %. Myrmicidae in reference site dominance with IVI 51.4 % and Formicidae in zone one with IVI 48.6 %. Ground arthropod in zone one and reference site had similarity in community structure which showed in same cluster in biplot analysis and zone two and three was in another different cluster. Keywords : Arthropod, diversity, restoration, community structure

Highlights

The increase of population in the world was affected to increase of total waste which produce every years, especially in urban area
Ground Arthropods was surveyed on four zone, zone one (10 years restoration), zone two, zone three, and reference site
Some Arthropod which found in Tempat Pembuangan Akhir (TPA) WET is familly Acrididae, Carabidae, Culicidae, Formi-cidae, Myrmicidae, Gryllidae, Specidae, etc (Fig. 2)

Summary

INTRODUCTION

The increase of population in the world was affected to increase of total waste which produce every years, especially in urban area. Landfill in Indonesia is still use open dumping system to manage waste. Zone two with five years restoration, and zone three which still used as open dumping area. Restoration activity in landfill former of TPA WET is one of efforts from settlements and local government to reduce environmental contaminant which causeed by open dumping system. TPA WET was provided an installation of methane gas from open dumping waste area as energy source for settlements. Until this day, data from ecological services of restoration activities in TPA WET is still unknown. Aim of this research is to know about composition, community structure, and survival of ground Arthropod in restoration area in TPA WET
