Abstract

Some upper air atmospheric parameters measured during period of 2011-2016 by means of radiosonde located at Hasanuddin International Airport were examined for characterization of boundary layer over Makassar, Indonesia. These data, combined with surface atmospheric parameters were used to calculate some boundary layer parameters using AERMET model which based on Monin-Obukhov similarity theory. The obtained Monin-Obukhov length which reflecting atmospheric stability then converted into traditional Pasquill-Gifford stability classification. Examination of wind characteristics of wind showing clearly their dependence of the day, season and height. Winds dominantly flows from the southeast during the daytime with the relatively larger velocity and from the northwest with smaller velocity during the nighttime. Interpretation of monin-obukhov length using Pasquill-Gifford stability classification showing that the atmosphere was dominantly unstable during the daytime and dominantly stable during the nighttime. These atmospheric stabilities were also varied during seasons. The height of convective boundary layer (CBL) was start to rise in the morning and reaching its maximum in the afternoon (18:00) at the mean value of 2 km. Meanwhile, the height of mechanical boundary layer (MBL) during the day time forming parabolic curve with its maximum value of 1.2 km at noon. These indicated that any released pollution from the stack will be less dispersed during the nighttime due to the fact of lower mixing height, lower wind speed, atmosphere become more stable, and it dispersed in different direction compare to the daytime.

Abstract

Characteristics and distribution of bottom sediment is one of the important parameters in determining the management plan and land use in coastal areas. The purpose of this study was to determine the condition of the distribution of bottom sediments and to compare the changes that occurred in the distribution of bottom sediment before and after the reclamation of the Center Point of Indonesia (CPI) in Makassar City. Sediment sampling was carried out using a grab sampler at four stations, namely stastions on the island adjacent to the reclamation area and two other stations in the water around the reclamation area. The results showed that the bottom sediment in the waters around the reclamation area consisted of coarse sand and medium sand with an organic matter content of 14.92% in the sediment. On the islands adjacent to the reclamation area, the bottom sediments are move varied, consisting of coarse sand, medium sand and fine sand with lower organic matter content of 4.92% to 5.38%.
