Abstract

Abstract: The West Java southern waters - Banten is among the skipjack tuna Katsiuwonus Pelamis distribution areas. It is well known that the skipjack tuna potential distribution is influenced by the environmental circumstances of the waters. This study was performed to establish the potential distribution of skipjack tuna in the West Java southern waters– Banten to support the potential management program of marine fishery resources. The data used consisted of skipjack tuna catch position, sea surface temperature, and chlorophyll-a concentrations from June 2019 to August 2019. Descriptive analysis and maximum entropy (maxent) model were applied to analyze skipjack tuna's potential distribution. The results revealed that the potential area of skipjack tuna is scattered in parts of the southern waters of West Java - Banten, with a validation test of the model performance of 0.92 (excellent).
