Abstract

DKI Jakarta area with high CO2 emission and 84,95 % of  built-up areas (year of 2009) cause urban heat island (UHI).  To overcome UHI problems, its characteristics must be known.  Trend analysis of surface temperature areas was conducted by comparison of surface temperature  spatial distribution of 2006 with 2010.  UHI analysis based on geograpical coordinates were also conducted.  High surface temperature of > 34 ºC was on inner city and decreasing to sub urban area.  High surface temperature were especially on high density bulit-up areas. Priority of  solving UHI problems are conducted on high surface temperature areas.

Abstract

Bandung regency is one of the cities with many environmental problems oc like other cities in Indonesia. These problems are the continues increasing the number and density of population, and the increasing increased industrial and transportation. On the other hard, the forest area and green open space in Bandung Regency continues to decline. This causes increased air pollution and air temperature. The problems can be sowed with micro climate reparation in Bandung regency using urban forest in order to improve the climate conditions (amelioration) efficiently and effectively.

Abstract

Oil palm is a strategic mainstay product with a crucial role in the national economy, and it can also be carbon sink to mitigate the negative impact of global warming when managed in environmentally friendly manner. Therefore, management and surrounding community need to have an understanding of the environment, and pro-environmental attitude and behaviour. Action research, which aimed at mitigating global warming through the local action of environmental education (EE), was conducted toward oil palm plantation employee and surrounding community. The EE programme was expected to be able to shape understanding and pro-environmental attitude and behaviour in the target group.  Rapid observation and interview were carried out in collecting data for EE programme development.  A needs assessment was conducted in developing the EE subject; based on local environmental problems and gap of target group’s perception of the problems.  Global warming-related environmental problems found in the location included air temperature increase, drought and difficulty in determining planting season.  Spatial analysis based on 1989 and 2014 satellite imagery showed a decrease of the water body, tree vegetated land and open areas, and an increase in non-tree vegetated land and built land, accompanied by an increase in areas with higher temperature range.  Both employees and the community had a good knowledge of the environment, but less in conservation. The environmental education provided for them had been able to increase their perception on environmental conservation. However, repetition and intensive assistance are still needed to strengthen the perception

Abstract

Acid rain is caused by increasing air pollution. The emission of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide from fossil fuel combustion into the atmosphere, which is followed by a chemical transformation (hydrolysis) into sulphuric and nitric acid, causes acid rain. The study was conducted on four (4) locations with different landuses. The lowest pH of rainfall was on industrial area, whereas the highest pH of rainfall was on vegetation area. pH of rainfall in beginning of rainy season was lower than pH of rainfall in middle of rainy season.Keyword : Acid rain, pH, landuse, rainfal

Abstract

Lead (Pb) concentration in the air emitted by fuel combustion from motor vehicles could be reduced by city green belt through the absorption and adsorption processes. The study was conducted to know the capability of tanjung green belt in Taman Monas in reducing lead (Pb) concentration emitted by motor vehicles fuel combustion. Pb concentration was measured using gravimetric method and analyzed using AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer). The study showed that tanjung stand with 141 tree individuals in 13 rows were able to reduce Pb concentration with reduction rate of 0.26 μg/m3 in the morning, 0.30 μg/m3 in the day time, and 0.41 μg/m3 in the afternoon. Lead concentration in the air would increase with the increase of motor vehicles density. The green belt in Taman Monas could repair micro climate by reducing environmental temperature and increasing humidity.Keywords: Lead (Pb), green belt, tanjung (Mimusops elengi Linn), pollution

Abstract

Based on on the space use general plan of Rengat City year of 2003-2012, one of areas allocated for an urban green space is Danau Raja area. The area can be developed as an urban forest. The urban forest can increase aesthetical value, quality of urban environment and lead to a good image in sustainable development. Urban forest developed in the area is recreation type with the shape of a dispersed thing.Keywords: urban forest, type, shape

Abstract

Gudawang Cave Karst Area is one of the karst area that are located in Bogor. This karst area has the ecosystem service potential that aren’t maximally utilized. This happen because there's no information about what ecosystem service that owned by the manager. This condition leading to the need for identification ofecosystem service potential and its utilization by local community. Research was done at March to June 2013 through field observation, interview, and literature study. The result of this research indicated that from 10 identified cave all of them were natural habitat of wildlife as shown by 19 wildlife species that were discovered inside the cave. All of them were also potentialfor tourism because of the different characteristic in each caveidentified. As many as 8 from them are potential for carbon dioxide absorptionand water supply. Only 3 of all the identified cave that have beenmanaged as tourism object and only 1 of all the identified cave has been used as water supply for local community. Keywords : Ecosystem service potential, Gudawang Cave, Identification, Karst area, Utilization

Abstract

Structure of roadside vegetation was assumed to have effects in reducing lead concentration in the ambient air.  One of the structure factors was number of rows.  The objectives of the research were: (a) to determine the effects of different number of plant rows in reducing lead concentration; (b) to determine the decreasing pattern of Pb particle concentration in the ambient air surrounding the roadside vegetation. Air sample to analyze the concentration of Pb particles in the ambient air was collected on 4 collection point: point emission (roadside), 5 m, 15 m and 30 m behind the roadside vegetation; air samples was also collected from an openspace plot. The results showed that differences of tree row number affected the decrease of Pb particle concentration; the more the number of tree rows, the greater the decrease of Pb particle concentration. Two plant rows of roadside vegetation had same capability with more two plant rows of roadside vegetation in reducing Pb particle concentration.  There was a trend that the increasing distance of the roadside would decrease the level of Pb concentration.   Keywords: Pb particle, roadside vegetation, plant row
