Abstract

This study examines the impact of land use change, shrimp farming, and climate change on biodiversity and the welfare of fishermen in Lampung from a community perspective. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 70 respondents through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS version 26. The results reveal that land use change and shrimp farming have negative effects on biodiversity, while climate change significantly exacerbates these impacts. Biodiversity, in turn, strongly influences the welfare of fishermen, with reduced biodiversity linked to declining income stability and food security. Regression analysis indicates that environmental factors explain 58.3% of biodiversity variance, while biodiversity accounts for 33.6% of the variance in fishermen's welfare. The findings emphasize the importance of sustainable practices and integrated policies to mitigate environmental degradation and improve community livelihoods.
