Abstract

The general event of natural process phenomena on lowland areas is flood as an effect of the overtooping stream water over natural levees and inundate the area of surrounding the river. Most of the lowland surround the rivers is used by man for settlements, agriculture land, high way, and other activities to support their life intensively. Therefore flood is not only the physical phenomena but also a socio – economic phenomena. One of the way to understand the spatial distribution of flood prone areas an be done by means of survey and mapping of the flood susceptibility and hazard using an hydro- geomorphological approach. The fluvial landform units on the lowlands reflect the effet of the geomorphological and hydrological processes in the past. Therefore those phenomena can be applied to explain the recent flood characteristics such as inundation  area, depth and flood duration, as well as flood frequencies and sources of floods. This explanation can be used as the starting point of the existing information which an be used as a basic survey and mapping of the flood suspectibility and hazard. The exiting of the interaction between man and natural event (flood) information, can also be applied as a fundament to define the hazard levels of every landform units own flood susceptibility levels.

Abstract

Five days after the Kelud Volcano eruption of 13 February 2014, lahar occurred in several channels of the Volcano. Rainfall with intensity of 26 mm/hour mobilized pyroclastic material from the upper slopes of Kelud Volcano down the channel during 3.5 hour. Using this eruption as a case study, the aims of this paper are (1) to study the geomorphic impact of lahars and (2) to study future hazards and risks due to the potential of lahar source material and lahar repose area. To reach these two goals, we use both primary and secondary data. The primary data comprises an integration of remote sensing, GIS approach, and fieldwork control, in order to investigate the geomorphic impacts of lahars. Secondary data were collected through interviews and statistical approach in villages, in order to determine their perception to the risk of lahar. Morphogenic processes such as riverbank erosion, channel-widening and riverbed downcutting took an important role in generating the impact of lahar in Kali Konto. The medial and distal areas were affected more largely affected than the proximal area. This major impacts have been river widening and buried crop field inside of the channel. This result allowed us to provide recommendation to population living along those areas at risk, in order to be prepared against the eventuality of potentially large and destructive lahars.
