24. BIOINDIKATOR adalah organisme, baik spesies
maupun kelompok spesies) yang dapat memberikan
informasi lokasi, kondisi tertentu maupun kualitas
lingkungan

25. BIOINDICATOR
(Cairn et al., 1993 dalam Jamil, 2001 )
1. indikator pemenuhan (compliance indicator) yang
didesain untuk mengetahui restorasi kualitas
ketercapaian;
2. indikator diagnostik (diagnostic indicator) untuk
investigasi penyebab gangguan); dan
3. indikator pemeringat awal (early warning
indicator) untuk memberi pertanda adanya
gangguan sebelum indikator lain terpengaruh.

26. Early warning indicator
1.anticipatory: should occur at levels of organisation, either
biological or physical, that provide an indication of
degradation, or some form of adverse effect, before important
‘serious’ environmental harm has occurred
2 sensitive: in detecting potential important impacts prior to
them occurring, an early warning indicator should be sensitive
to low levels, or early stages of exposure to the stressor
3 diagnostic: should be sufficiently specific to a stressor, or
group of stressors, to increase confidence in identifying the
cause of an effect
4 broadly applicable: alternatively, an early warning indicator
should predict potential impacts from a broad range of
stressors
5 correlated to actual environmental effects: knowledge that
continued exposure to the stressor, and hence continued
manifestation of the response, would eventually lead to
important environmental effects is important
