Abstract

Tourism is one of the ways for residents at the village to gain income and aslo a contributor to the national economy. The tourism that is found in every village nowadays favors the potential of the surrounding nature. Pacitan Regency is known to have tourism potential related to the advantages of its karst landscape. Pacitan also got the nickname "1000 Goa" because there are many karst caves found there. Villages in Pacitan Regency have developed a lot of eco-karst tourism. Dersono Village is a village located in Pringkuku District, Pacitan Regency. There is one leading eco-karst tourism in the village that is currently being managed, namely the Maron River. Although it has similarities with other tourism in Pacitan Regency, which is the same theme of eco-karst, however Maron River certainly has its own attraction which made tourists who come to Pacitan Regency decided to visit the Maron River This study aims to analyze the potential for tourism attraction of Maron River based on the 4A tourism components. The method used in this study is descriptive research with data collection through observation and interviews. Based on the results of the study, the study found that the tourism attraction of Maron River based on 4A has met the parameters. However, it still needs to be developed so that the number of tourist visits continues to increase and can be expanded with new eco-karst attractions.

Abstract

Every object in the form of an earth element or man-made feature has a name with various origins. The origins of place names can be categorized based on geography, history, folklore/culture and language so that their spatial distribution can be known. This research explores the spatial distribution of the origins of naming earth elements and man-made features in the Giritontro District. The study begins by identifying the aspects of the earth's appearance and man-made features and then finding the meaning of naming each identified element. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interviews. Determining the sources used the snowball sampling method. The results of the research show that the toponymically identified objects are dominated by man-made features with a spatial distribution of 92% in Giritontro Village, 72% in Pucanganom Village, 52% in Tlogosari Village and 78% in Jatirejo Village. The remainder is dominated by the earth's elements of the Karst Area, such as caves, hills, and springs, with a spatial distribution of Bayemharjo Village at 63%, Ngargojarjo at 53% and Tlogoharjo Village at 66%. Meanwhile, the spatial distribution of toponymy in Giritontro District, whose origin is dominated by language, is known to be spread across Giritontro District with a percentage of 60%. Apart from that, the toponymy found was predominantly geographically dispersed across Pucanganom Village with a portion of 40%, Tlogosari Village at 60%, Jatirejo Village at 61%, Bayemharjo Village at 61%, Ngargoharjo Village at 57% and Tlogoharjo Village 46%. The geographical conditions referred to are those attached to the object or the object's proximity to geographical things (associations) which are dominant in the Karst Area.

Abstract

Abstrak. Artikel ini mengkaji toponimi di kawasan karst Kecamatan Giritontro, Kabupaten Wonogiri, Jawa Tengah. Penelitian ini berfokus pada bagaimana proses penamaan tempat di wilayah karst mencerminkan karakteristik geografi, sejarah, dan budaya masyarakat setempat. Toponimi tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai penanda geografis tetapi juga sebagai cerminan interaksi manusia dengan lingkungannya. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan pengumpulan data melalui observasi lapangan, dan wawancara mendalam. Data yang dikumpulkan mencakup nama-nama objek alam seperti bukit, gua, dan mata air, serta nama-nama buatan manusia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penamaan tempat di kawasan karst Giritontro banyak dipengaruhi oleh karakteristik morfologi dan hidrologi karst. Misalnya, istilah seperti "giri" dan "gunung" digunakan untuk menyebut perbukitan dan kubah karst, sedangkan "luweng" dan "telaga" digunakan untuk menamai doline atau lubang runtuh. Selain itu, istilah penamaan hidrologi juga digunakan seperti istilah “Teleng”, “Sumber/Mber”, “Dung” dan “Kali”.  Proses morfologi kata seperti blending, coinage, dan compounding ditemukan dalam pembentukan toponim di wilayah ini. Penelitian ini menyoroti pentingnya pemahaman tentang sejarah dan kearifan lokal dalam konservasi lanskap karst, yang unik karena struktur hidrologi dan morfologinya. Hasil kajian ini juga menunjukkan bahwa toponimi dapat menjadi alat penting untuk memahami dan mendokumentasikan perubahan lanskap dan penggunaan lahan di kawasan karst, serta dapat menginspirasi masyarakat untuk menjaga warisan geologi dan budaya mereka. Abstract.  This study explores toponymy in the karst region of Giritontro District, Wonogiri Regency, Central Java, focusing on how place-naming processes reflect the local community's geographical, historical, and cultural characteristics. Toponymy acts as both a geographical marker and a representation of human-environment interaction. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through field observations and in-depth interviews. The data includes names of natural features, such as hills, caves, springs, and man-made locations. Findings reveal that the naming of places in the Giritontro karst region is strongly influenced by its unique morphological and hydrological characteristics. For instance, terms like "giri" and "gunung" refer to hills and karst domes, while "luweng" and "telaga" denote dolines or sinkholes. Hydrological terms such as "Teleng," "Sumber/Mber," "Dung," and "Kali" are also commonly used. Additionally, word formation processes such as blending, coinage, and compounding play a significant role in toponym creation. This study underscores the importance of understanding local history and wisdom in conserving karst landscapes, renowned for their unique hydrological and morphological features. Furthermore, it demonstrates that toponymy is a valuable tool for documenting and understanding landscape changes and land use while inspiring communities to safeguard their geological and cultural heritage.

Abstract

Landslides are natural events that can be worsened by human activities, leading to significant destruction of life and property. In Tawangmangu District, situated on the slopes of Mount Lawu, the landslide risk is amplified due to factors such as volcanic soil, steep terrain, and high rainfall. This research seeks to map landslide hazards in the area by utilizing a Geographic Information System (GIS) and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), combining both static and dynamic factors contributing to landslide occurrences. The study considers seven critical factors: slope, distance from roads, geology, land use, soil type, rainfall, and proximity to geological faults. Expert opinions are used to assign weights to these factors, which are then integrated into a GIS model to assess susceptibility to landslides. The area is classified into five risk zones. The results show that 21.97% of the region faces high and very high risks, while 39.57% is moderately vulnerable. The highest-risk areas are those with steep slopes and significant human activity, such as road construction and land-use changes for tourism. Model validation, comparing the predicted landslide zones with actual landslide locations, shows that over 75% of landslides occurred in high and very high-risk areas, confirming the model's accuracy. This study underscores the importance of sustainable land use planning, effective infrastructure management, and vegetation preservation in reducing landslide risks. Future mitigation efforts should focus on monitoring land use changes, strengthening vulnerable infrastructure, and enhancing early warning systems to minimize further landslide damage in the region.
