PENENTUAN JENIS TUMBUHAN PENCIRI PADA EMPAT KOMUNITAS TUMBUHAN DI KAWASAN KARST MAROS-PANGKEP SULAWESI SELATAN
Abstract: The study aims to
determine the distinguishing plant species within a plant community forest in
the karst area of Maros-Pangkep. Plots of 20 meters by 20 meters were
purposively established on 40 different locations representing proportionally
facies of massif, porous, leyered and metamorphosed carbonate rocks. Tree
dimensions in terms of height and diameter of trees in every plot were
measured. The data were examinated through table method and principal component
analysis (PCA). The study indicated that the distiguishing plant species
determined by table method, only could diffrenciate between the group of
communities over massif, porous rock facies and the group of communities over
layered, metamorphosed rock facies. Whereas, determining plant species
characteristic by PCA method gave sharper interpretation about the
distiguishing plant species of plant communities among massif, porous, layered
and matamorphosed rock facies.
