Peson Subah II Nature Reserve is a conservation area designated through the decree of the Minister of Environment and Forestry No. SK. 359/Menhut-II/2004. Peson Subah II Nature Reserve is an area of ±10 Ha located in Gondang Village, Subah District, Batang Regency. The ecological processes of a nature reserve generally reflect the natural characteristics of the original ecosystem, with typical or indigenous species forming its constituent communities. Since its establishment during colonial times until now, the Peson Subah II Nature Reserve has not yet had complete information, especially regarding the types of trees that make up its ecosystem. This research aims to determine the quantitative structure, composition, and diversity in the forest community of Peson Subah II Nature Reserve.
This research uses a systematic sampling method with a nested plot design spaced 50 meters apart. Data collection includes tree species at various growth stages, including the number of individuals, the diameter at breast height (dbh)/circumference size, and height. Data analysis includes calculating the Important Value Index (Indeks Nilai Penting; INP) and the level of species diversity using the Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index formula.
The results of this research show that the Peson Subah II Nature Reserve is an old successional lowland forest with a forest ecosystem that is still intact and natural with a composition consisting of 47 tree species divided into 22 families with a Side Intensity (IS) of 16%. According to the INP value results, at the seedling level, it is dominated by Girang (Leea indica) with an INP of 34.09%, Dluwak (Microcos tomentosa) at the sapling and pole level with an INP value of 46.989% and 76.5% respectively, and the tree level is dominated by Kedoya (Dysoxylum gaudichaudianum) with an INP of 52.608%. The results of the Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index calculations at various levels of tree growth in the Peson Subah II Nature Reserve forest have H' values, namely the seedling level of 2.785; saplings of 2.294; poles of 2.664; and trees of 2.833.
