Abstract

Compared to other landforms, karst areas are among those emerging from the dissolution process that have a higher risk of land degradation. The likelihood of karst landforms being harmed is increased by urbanization and other human activities like extensive agriculture. Subsurface streams' water quality gets worse when surface pollutants infiltrate through developed karst features like sinkholes and karst ponors. There is a greater risk of land degradation as more karst features, in this case void size, develop. The purpose of this research is to assess how void development, or the degree of karstification, relates to the potential for karst spring pollution in the event that land degradation occurs on the surface of the Karst Drainage System (KDS). This research was conducted at the KDS of Beton and Gremeng Spring in the Gunungsewu karst area, Indonesia. In addition, this study also provides recommendations related to environmental management on the basis of the level of development of voids at both sites. The degree of karstification represents the phase at which a hydrogeological system has been developing, and this information was later considered in formulating strategies for protecting karst groundwater from contamination. The results show that Beton and Gremeng had a complex discharge regime with degrees of karstification at 8 and 5.5, respectively. Based on flood hydrograph components, it was further confirmed that both areas were in the mature phase. The higher the degree of karstification, the higher the vulnerability to pollution.

Abstract

The study aimed to determine the level of pollution sensitivity associated with fertilization activities in agricultural land in two karst spring catchment areas (Beton and Guntur). The aquifer characteristics of these two springs differ; the Beton Spring has a more developed allogenic channel development, whereas the Guntur Spring has a less developed autogenic system. In this study, the COCKPIT-PLUS and Master Recession Curve (MRC) techniques are combined to define land use zoning and the degree of aquifer sensitivity to pollution. Field sampling and stakeholder interviews were also conducted to assess land management practices and pollutant concentrations in the springs. The results show that due to the influence of more intensive and varied land use, Beton Spring has a higher sensitivity to pollution, as evidenced by higher concentrations of nitrate, phosphate, and Escherichia coli. In contrast, lower pollution levels in Guntur Spring occur due to the narrower recharge zone area supported by a more consistent planting pattern. Various strategies, including vegetative restoration, drainage planning, land use regulation, and communicative education, were formulated using the DPSIR framework. Strategies are critical in areas with high sensitivity, such as the Beton and Jomblangan recharge zones, which also highlight the necessity of land use restrictions based on upstream-downstream interactions. This study emphasized the importance of adapting the protection plan for karst aquifer recharge zones in response to land use intensity and degradation. It proposes an evidence-based integrated management model that focuses on decreasing the effects of land degradation in tropical karst aquifer systems.
