Abstract

The Batanghari River, located in Sumatera, has experienced many anthropogenic pressures which caused sedimentation and changes in the river's water quality. Plankton and benthic communities are organisms that are very sensitive to changes in environmental quality. This study aimed to investigate and update the spatial variation of water quality, plankton, and macrozoobenthos diversity in the Batanghari River. The results show that nitrite, ammonia and total phosphorus concentrations are quite high in the waters with a low clarity level. The highest diversity index and abundance of phytoplankton were found in Batanghari Tabir. Bacillariophyceae dominated the phytoplankton found in the Batanghari River. Zooplankton found in this study came from Cladocera, Rotifera, and Protozoa. The highest diversity index and abundance were found in Batanghari Tebo. The most common type of macrozoobenthos came from the Oligochaeta group. In general, phytoplankton was categorized as of a moderate diversity. Even zooplankton’s and macrozoobenthos’s diversity was relatively low in diversity.
