Abstrak muhammad iqbal. (2024). keanekaragaman jenis burung pada kawasan green belt gampong baro kecamatan mesjid raya kabupaten aceh besar. [skripsi. universitas syiah kuala]. dibawah bimbingan dr. abdullah, m.si., dan devi syafrianti, m.si. keanekaragaman burung memegang peran sentral dalam menjaga keseimbangan ekosistem. penelitian ini dilaksanakan di kawasan green belt gampong baro, kecamatan mesjid raya, kabupaten aceh besar, selama periode bulan desember hingga april 2023.tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui tingkat keanekaragaman jenis burung pada green belt gampong baro, kecamatan mesjid raya, kabupaten aceh besar telah mengalami perbaikan ekosistem setelah bencana tsunami 2004. penelitian ini mengadopsi pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian deskriptif. data dikumpulkan melalui survei eksploratif (jelajah) di lokasi penelitian dengan menentukan titik pengamatan berdasarkan karakteristik habitat dan frekuensi perjumpaan berbagai spesies burung secara langsung. lokasi penelitian dibagi menjadi tiga stasiun, dengan pengamatan dilakukan selama tiga hari di setiap stasiun. penentuan stasiun didasarkan pada kriteria kondisi lingkungan yang meliputi kawasan pesisir pantai, hutan cemara dan area pertanian/perkebunan. hasil penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa keanekaragaman burung di kawasan green belt gampong baro tergolong sedang, dengan indeks keanekaragaman (Ĥ) sebesar 2,180. hasil identifikasi mengungkapkan 15 spesies burung yang berasal dari 11 famili yang berbeda. di antara spesies-spesies tersebut, lima jenis burung menonjol sebagai yang paling dominan, yakni burung kirik-kirik laut (merops philippinus), burung madu kelapa (anthreptes malacensis), burung merbah cerukcuk (pycnonotus goiavier), burung tekukur (streptopelia bitorquata), dan burung kuntul kecil (egretta garzetta). temuan ini menyoroti potensi tinggi keanekaragaman burung di kawasan green belt gampong baro, yang perlu mendapatkan perhatian serius dalam upaya pelestarian ekosistem. informasi yang diperoleh dari penelitian ini dapat memberikan dasar yang kuat bagi usaha konservasi dan pengelolaan yang lebih efektif terhadap lingkungan alaminya. selain itu, hasil penelitian ini dapat menjadi rujukan penting dalam merencanakan pembangunan wilayah dengan mempertimbangkan aspek keberlanjutan dan keseimbangan ekologi. kata kunci: keanekaragamanan, burung, green belt

ABSTRACT Muhammad Iqbal. (2024). Bird Species Diversity in the Green Belt Area of Gampong Baro, Mesjid Raya Subdistrict, Aceh Besar Regency. [Script. Syiah Kuala University]. Under the guidance of Dr. Abdullah, M.Si., and Devi Syafrianti, M.Si. Bird diversity plays a central role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem. This research was carried out in the Green Belt area of Gampong Baro, Mesjid Raya District, Aceh Besar Regency, during the period from December to April 2023.The purpose of the research is to determine the level of bird species diversity in the Green Belt of Gampong Baro, Mesjid Raya District, Aceh Besar Regency has experienced ecosystem improvements after the 2004 tsunami disaster. This study adopts a quantitative approach with a descriptive type of research. Data was collected through exploratory surveys (exploratory) at the research site by determining observation points based on habitat characteristics and frequency of encounters of various bird species directly. The research location was divided into three stations, with observations being carried out for three days at each station, with observations carried out for three days at each station. Determination of stations is based on environmental condition criteria which include coastal areas, pine forests and agricultural/plantation areas. The research results reveal that bird diversity in the Gampong Baro Green Belt area is classified as moderate, with a diversity index (Ĥ) of 2,180. Identification results revealed 15 bird species from 11 different families. Among these species, five types of birds stand out as the most dominant, namely the Sea Bird (Merops philippinus), Coconut Honey Bird (Anthreptes malacensis), Cerukcuk Merbah Bird (Pycnonotus goiavier), Turtledove Bird (Streptopelia bitorquata), and the Little Egret (Egretta garzetta). These findings highlight the high potential for bird diversity in the Gampong Baro Green Belt area, which needs serious attention in ecosystem conservation efforts. The information obtained from this research can provide a strong basis for conservation efforts and more effective management of the natural environment. Apart from that, the results of this research can be an important reference in planning regional development by considering aspects of sustainability and ecological balance.
