ABSTRACT
In December 2019, a novel coronavirus
called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak
was reported for the first time in Wuhan, Hubei province, China. This
coronavirus has been referred as Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19 by World
Health Organization (WHO). The spread of COVID-19 has become unstoppable,
infecting around 93.5 million people worldwide, with the infections and deaths
still increasing. Today, the entire planet has changed due to the greatest
threat on the planet since the introduction of this lethal disease. This
pandemic has left the world in turmoil and various measures have been taken by
many countries including movement control order or lockdown, to slow down or
mitigate the infection. Since the lockdown has been implemented almost in all
affected countries, there has been a significant reduction in anthropogenic
activity, including a reduction in industrial operations, vehicle numbers, and
marine-related activities. All of these changes have also led to some unexpected
environmental consequences. As a result of this lockdown, it had a positive and
negative impact on the environment including the aquatic environment. Hence
this review will therefore focus on the good and bad perspectives of the
lockdown toward the aquatic environment.
Keywords: Anthropogenic; aquatic
environment; COVID-19; lockdown; pollution
ABSTRAK
Pada Disember 2019, satu koronavirus baru yang dikenali sebagai SARS-CoV-2 telah merebak dan dilaporkan untuk pertama kalinya di Wuhan, Wilayah
Hubei, China. Koronavirus ini telah dinamakan sebagai Coronavirus
Disease 2019 atau pandemik COVID-19oleh Pertubuhan Kesihatan Dunia (WHO). Penyebaran COVID-19 ini tidak dapat dikawal dan dihentikan dan telah menjangkiti hampir 94.5 juta manusia di seluruh dunia dengan kadar jangkitan dan kematian masih meningkat pada hari ini. Kini, persekitaran bumi telah berubah kerana ancaman terbesar sejak kemunculan wabak ini. Pandemik ini juga menjadikan seluruh dunia menjadi panik dan pelbagai langkah telah diambil oleh kebanyakan negara termasuk perintah kawalan pergerakan untuk memperlahankan dan mengawal jangkitan ini. Sejak perintah ini dilaksanakan di kesemua negara yang terjejas di seluruh dunia, aktiviti antropogen telah berkurangan secara signifikan, termasuk aktiviti perindustrian, jumlah kenderaan di jalan raya dan juga aktiviti berkaitan dengan laut. Semua perubahan ini turut membawa kepada perubahan persekitaran yang tidak dijangka oleh manusia. Hasil daripada kawalan ini, ia memberi kesan positif dan juga negatif terhadap alam sekitar termasuklah persekitaran akuatik. Oleh itu, ulasan ini akan menumpukan kepada perspektif baik dan buruk perintah kawalan pergerakan terhadap persekitaran akuatik.
Kata kunci: Antropogen;
COVID-19; kawalan pergerakan; pencemaran; persekitaran akuatik
