Abstract

The Pelayaran River located in Sidoarjo Regency, East Java runs through residential areas and rice fields. This river is used intensively by the community for irrigating rice fields and fish farming. However, increased human activity and change in land use affects negatively river ecosystem consisted of various aquatic organisms, including phytoplankton. Phytoplankton are highly sensitive to environmental changes, making them useful biological indicators. This study aims to analyze phytoplankton diversity and monitor water quality. This study uses descriptive observation methods at three stations. Phytoplankton diversity is calculated using the Shannon-Wiener formula, and water quality parameters are compared with PP No. 22 of 2021. The study identified 11 genera of phytoplankton across 7 classes. Phytoplankton diversity was 1.721, which is classified as moderate and slightly polluted water. Almost all parameters exceeded the quality standards, with only BOD and pH meeting the criteria.
