ABSTRACT
Marine tourism is authorized in Jakarta Bay’s Angke Kapuk mangrove forest. Maritime vessel activities, maintenance, and land reclamation can pollute nearby aquatic environments and sedimentary deposits. This study examines lead (Pb), a heavy metal, in water and sediment samples to measure contamination. Lead pollution in aquatic habitats can harm aquatic organisms and humans through bioaccumulation in the food chain. The sampling was done twice in August 2023, seven days apart. This technique was done at three stations with different activities. Microwave Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (MP-AES) was used to measure lead amounts in the samples. The water sample analysis showed 0.0022-0.0092 mg/L, matching Indonesian Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021 standards. Conversely, sediment samples showed 0.067-0.200 mg/kg, which is below the quality criteria set by ANZECC&ARMCANZ in 2000 for Australia and New Zealand and CCME in 2001 for Canada. Despite low pollution according to recognized criteria, heavy metals in ecotourism zones require government and public attention. Additional information, in-depth research on water contamination, and heightened awareness of the impacts of heavy metals may be necessary.
