Abstract

This study used the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and Geographical Information System (GIS) to estimate the annual rate of soil loss, map erosion factors, and recommend a suitable pattern of land rehabilitation in Wai Tala watershed, Regency of Western Seram. The research material used in this study were rainfall data for 38 years, Digital Elevation Model Nasional (DEMNAS) Image Map, Rupa Bumi Indonesia (RBI), geology, soil, land use, and watershed boundaries of Maluku Province. Field research was conducted on 187 land units, and each land unit contained RUSLE erosion factors: topography, soil type, and land use. The spatial distribution of erosion factors was processed using the Arc.GIS10.8, and the soil erosion rates were estimated using the RUSLE method, then corrected using the land degradation model developed in small islands in Maluku. The results showed that the level of erosion hazard in the Wai Tala watershed was none to slight (mean = 3.54 t/ha/yr), moderate erosion (21.52 t/ha/yr), high erosion (110.01 t/ha/yr), and very high erosion (252.84 t/ha/yr). The recommended land rehabilitation patterns that can reduce annual soil loss lower than the tolerable limit are maintaining the none to slight erosion areas with the present land uses in particular primary and secondary forests, and with reforestation or agroforestry patterns combined with low to high-density garden plants or with low to high densities cover crop at the moderate to very high erosion areas.

Abstract

This study aims to determine physical and clay mineral properties of soils and how they affect the occurrence of erosion in the IAIN Campus Ambon. The results indicated that the two soil profiles shows a variety in soil properties. the largest distribution of soil particle density is 2.63 at soil layer P2L3 and the smallest is 2.26 at P1L1, the largest soil pore distribution is 60.12% at P2L1 and the smallest is 29.36% at P1L3, while the largest soil pores ratio distribution is 1.51% at P2L1 and the smallest is 0.42% at soil layer P1L3. The soil porosity reflects the level of the soil ability to pass water flow (permeability) or the speed of water flow to pass through the soil mass (percolation). By the decreasing of soil porosity and pore ratio in layers 3 and 4, the permeability is also slower. The major clay mineral found in both soil profiles is kaolinite, an unwell consolidated secondary clay mineral type 1:1 mixed with quartz, the most weathering resistant primary minerals. These two minerals have lower friction resistance due to the increasing of clay content in the lower soil profiles. The physical and hydrological soil properties as well as the presence of kaolinite and quartz in the lower soil layers are considered to be the cause of the erosion occurrence in the study area (IAIN campus).

Abstract

The earthquake that occurred on September 26 2019 caused considerable damage to residential buildings in Ambon City, Central Maluku District and West Seram. This research was carried out in the villages of Liang, Tulehu and Waai, Salahutu District, Central Maluku Regency, which experienced the most damage, namely 5,406 houses were lightly damaged, 1,483 were moderately damaged, and 866 were heavily damaged. This study examines the characteristics of residential buildings, and analyzes the relationship between the level of damage to residential buildings and the distance from the epicenter. Coordinates and data on the level of damage to residential buildings (slight, moderate, very heavy) were obtained from BPBD Maluku Province, data on building characteristics including building construction, basic building conditions, building materials, building age were collected through field surveys and interviews with building owners based on damage level data building. The results showed that the level of damage to residential buildings was related to age/length, structure/construction, and materials used for building walls. The damage is even more severe if the building is old (> 20 years), the construction is boneless and unbuttoned (only the bricks are stacked), and the brick material is made of sea sand. Meanwhile, houses built with plastered masonry walls are more resistant to earthquakes. There is a relationship between the level of damage to residential buildings and the epicenter, the closer to the epicenter the damage is more severe, while the farther from the epicenter the level of damage is mild to moderate.

Abstract

The characteristics and quality of land resources are important things that must be considered in the planning, utilization and management of land for agricultural purposes. The purposes of this research were to describe land characteristics and quality, and to determine the suitability class, subclass, and limiting factors for clove (Zysygium armoticum), banana (Musa sp), and cassava ( Manihot esculenta Crant.) crops in Wai Ela Watershed. The method used in this study was a survey with land units as a fieldwork map which resulted from overlying four components, namely slope class, lithology formation, soil, and land uses. Field data collection was conducted following the observation lanes at 15 selected sample areas representing 72 land units. Data analysis was carried out by using a geographic information system (GIS), involving: (1) SRTM image analysis to produce topography class, (2) maps overlay to produce land units, and (3) attribute data processing to produce land suitability class. The study results showed that the land suitability for clove consisted of the suitable class of S2 (21.91 ha) and S3 (327.89 ha), and not-suitable, N (1069.85ha), with limiting factors being flooding, soil depth, and slope steepness. Land suitability for bananas consisted of the suitable class of S3 (501.70 ha), and not-suitable, N (686.99 ha) with limiting factors being flooding, erosion, and slope steepness; whereas land suitability for cassava consisted of the suitable class of S3 (501.70 ha) and not-suitable, N (917.96 ha), with limiting factors being flooding, slope steepness, and erosion.

Abstract

Forest areas are designated as protected forests if they function as a provider of clean water reserves, erosion control, city lungs or other functions. Disruption of forest land resources has an impact on changes in the physical properties of the soil and soil degradation due to erosion. Objectives of this study were: 1) to examine the relationship between soil physical properties, 2) to determine soil degradation due to erosion, 3) to examine the relationship between soil physical properties and the level of soil degradation due to erosion, 4) to determine recommendations for land rehabilitation. Research observations were made based on 15 sample areas representing 212 land units. All analyzes were carried out based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The physical properties of the soil studied included texture, structure, pore distribution, permeability, particle density and oven dry mass density; whereas soil degradation analysis was based on RUSLE: A=RKLSCP (Renard et al., 1997), and correction of the erosion model A=0.2547RKLSCP (Talakua S.M. and Osok, 2017. The rehabilitation recommendations analyzed were erosion tolerance, potential erosion and CP-maximum. Study results were: 1) The correlation between physical properties was significant (P-value = 0.000*-0.018*) with a positive correlation coefficient (0.163-0.999) and negative one (0.199-0.998); 2) The average erosion rate was: light 3.60 t/ha/year (1425.20 ha), moderate 32.03 t/ha/year (410.28 ha), heavy 108.95 t/ha/year (946 .2 ha), very heavy 426.83 t/ha/year (457.44 ha); 3) There was a significant correlation between the physical properties of the soil and the amount of erosion with a P-value = 0.000*–0.029* with a positive (0.152-0.161) and a negative (0.150-0.151) correlations; 4) Recommendation for rehabilitation are agroforestry patterns combined with tillage and planting of plants according to contour lines on slopes of 0–8%, planting grass in strips, planting low ground cover on high density plantation crops and maintaining secondary and primary forests.
