Increasing physical development and population growth in the city of Banda Aceh has caused various problems such as green open space reduced in the city. This is also followed by an increase in air pollution due to the increasing number of motorized vehicles in the city. One of the solutions to solve the problem of air pollution is to increase the ecological function of green open spaces in the city of Banda Aceh. With an increase in the ecological function of urban green open spaces, it is hoped that it can overcome pollution and improve the quality of the city's environment that is negatively affected. This study aims to analyze the condition of green open space in one of the urban parks in Banda Aceh City, namely the Bustanussalatin park in terms of its ecological function. Quantitative method used to analyze the ecological function of the urban parks and data collection related to the ecological functions of green open spaces is carried out in terms of carbon dioxide absorption, oxygen supply, and groundwater storage. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the Bustanussalatin park in Banda Aceh has limited in its service area for ecological functions in terms of carbon dioxide absorption, oxygen supply, and groundwater storage to serve the city center area. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the quality of the park in order to support the improvement of the ecological function of the urban park. © 2024 Author(s).
