摘要
Abstract Plastic litter had become world major concerned since 2015 and Indonesia had been placed as the second contributor after China. Around 200,000 metric tons of plastic wastes discharged from Indonesia rivers mainly from Java and Sumatra Islands every year. This surge of waste then become a serious threat to ocean and coastal ecosystem, as well as marine biota conservation in Indonesia. Therefore, it is very important to study the seasonal pattern of marine debris and monitor the dispersion within Indonesian water in near real time. By year 2020, an initiative action has been taken by The Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries of Indonesia. More than 20 drifters were released on 3 selected rivers’ mouth in Indonesia namely Cisadane, Bengawan Solo and Musi. Results indicated that marine debris are drifted away, influenced by wind and current from time to time. The simulation will forecast the time and location where the marine debris expected to traverse and stranded in each season. This information will be ve ry important to provide the baseline information of marine debris movement, locally and even beyond of Indonesian. Also, it will improve the mitigation, better coordinative action plan and encouraging further marine debris research in Indonesia.
