Abstract

Golf courses are green open spaces created for golfing recreation with dominant vegetation in the form of grass. In Indonesia, as one form of green open space landscape, golf courses are widely criticized for their development, resulting in fragmentation and loss of wildlife habitat, two significant causes of biodiversity loss. To address the problem, the golf industry is moving towards more sustainable golf course management to support Sustainable Development Goal 13 on climate change. Through this study, Permata Sentul Golf Club (PSGC) in Bogor Regency, Indonesia was selected to be studied and analyzed to determine its ability to maintain and utilize ecosystem services. PSGC was a natural forest ecosystem in a hilly area that has now been converted into golf course because of a land conversion process without much change to the original condition. This golf course consists of 25% tree-covered rough areas and 54% open areas for gameplay. Located in Tangkil Village, a rural area with extensive rice fields, the course occupies 8% of the village's area. The average air humidity at PSGC is 70.3%, with an air temperature of 27.7°C. Trees at PSGC can store 19.83 tons/ha of carbon, which is included in the low category with carbon absorption of 1.33 tons/year/ha. The dominant tree vegetation types on the PSGC golf course are Mimusops elengi, Acacia mangium, and Schefflera actinophylla. Through the presence of the PSGC golf course, its contributions include providing a microclimate and diverse vegetation, which help create a cooler urban environment and serve as a habitat for various wildlife. However, its carbon storage capacity is still relatively low compared to other green open spaces, especially primary forests. Based on the research findings, strategies can be implemented to optimize the ecosystem services provided by the PSGC golf course. These strategies include enhancing collaboration with various stakeholders from governmental and non-governmental organizations and educating both internal and external parties about the importance of working together to support environmentally friendly programs on the golf course.

Abstract

The Nature Conservation Area of the Forest Park in Riau Province is Tahura (Forest Park) Sultan Syarif Hasyim (SSH). SSH Forest Park is a natural tourist destination located near urban areas, offering great potential for development. However, the management of Forest Park and natural tourism in SSH Forest Park is currently considered not optimal. Indonesia's biodiversity and ecosystems play a crucial role in human life, and therefore, they must be managed sustainably. One way to conserve Indonesia's biodiversity is through the sustainable use of the area, achieved through the assessment and analysis of Objects and Natural Tourism Attractions (ONTA). This research aims to conduct an assessment and analysis of SSH Forest Park Objects and natural tourism attractions, and compile the development of natural tourism and ecotourism in SSH Forest Park.  The methods employed include a literature review, field observations, assessments of the nature reserve, and interviews. The tourist attraction in Sultan Syarif Hasyim Forest Park consists of both physical and biotic aspects, with a high assessment classification (feasible) developed. The proposed natural tourism development includes wildlife tourism (primarily primate tourism) and thematic plant collection parks, featuring typical plant collections of Riau Province, plant collections of the Dipterocarpaceae family, collections of medicinal plants, and collections of fruit-producing plants.

Abstract

Pertambangan batubara berperan penting dalam pertumbuhan perekonomian Indonesia, meskipun aktivitas tersebut berdampak negatif bagi lingkungan. Meminimalisir hal tersebut, pemerintah Indonesia mewajibkan reklamasi di lahan bekas tambang dengan salah satu indikator nya adalah keberhasilan tutupan tajuk. Saat ini belum ada metode terukur yang dapat menentukan tingkat keberhasilan tutupan tajuk pada lahan reklamasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengembangkan metode pengukuran berbasis data remote sensing dengan pendekatan Forest Canopy Density (FCD) yang dilakukan di wilayah izin pertambangan PT. Multi Harapan Utama, Kutai Kertanegara. Pemodelan FCD dilakukan dengan mengintegrasikan 4 indeks biofisik dari pengolahan citra Landsat 8 OLI TIRS selama 2013–2021. Hubungan antara nilai FCD terhadap tutupan tajuk di lapangan menggunakan regresi linier untuk memperoleh nilai keberhasilan tutupan tajuk berdasarkan nilai FCD. Hasil pemodelan FCD menunjukan tren kenaikan setiap tahunnya, khususnya pada 2 tahun pertama setelah penanaman. Analisis regresi menunjukan hubungan kuat antara nilai FCD dengan nilai tutupan tajuk dengan R2=0,775 dan mendapatkan nilai FCD 75,35 merupakan batas keberhasilan tutupan tajuk di lahan reklamasi. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan FCD dapat diterapkan untuk menentukan tingkat keberhasilan reklamasi lahan bekas tambang

Abstract

Mangrove forests in Teluk Lembar, West Lombok, have an important role in ecological balance and socio-economic benefits. However, these ecosystems face pressure from land conversion for ponds, illegal logging, and pollution. This study aims to describe the condition of mangroves, analyze the socio-economic aspects of the community and the role of stakeholders, assess the value of direct benefits of mangroves, and formulate sustainable management strategies. The results showed significant biodiversity, with 14 species of mangroves and 53 species of fauna, including 44 species of birds. The bird ecological index showed diversity (H') 32, uniformity (E) 0.8, and dominance (D) 0.7, which signified ecosystem stability. However, a serious threat comes from the conversion of land for ponds, houses, factories, and ports. Of the 1703.19 ha of the total area area, only 179.44 ha (10.54%) of mangrove forests remain. Waste pollution, such as mercury and copper levels that exceed the limit, also negatively impacts the ecosystem. Based on the SWOT analysis, the proposed mangrove management strategy includes: (a) strengthening community capacity in mangrove management through training and education, (b) increasing collaboration between stakeholders to strengthen regulation and law enforcement, (c) optimizing economic benefits through the development of mangrove-based ecotourism, and (d) implementing sustainable management practices to maintain a balance between conservation and utilization

Abstract

Maintaining vegetation can contribute to environmental impacts by producing exhaust gases and chemical residues. Therefore, to control it, it is necessary to trace impacts using the life cycle assessment approach. The aim of this research is to inventory inputs and outputs, calculate the magnitude of the impacts caused, and formulate recommendations scenarios for controlling environmental impacts from maintaining vegetation in City Park 1 BSD. Vegetation maintenance stages are identified based on the type of input and amount of output which is calculated using the basic formula: Emissions = activity data x emission factor. Vegetation maintenance has inputs in the form of petrol, diesel, electrical energy, manure, pearl fertilizer, curacron, furadan, dry leaves, and felled trees, while the output produced is CO2, N2O, CH4, SO2, NO2, NO3, NH3, and PO43-. Acidification emissions resulting have the highest value with hotspots in the form of electricity use and watering tankers. Impact control that can be done is reducing the use of watering tankers, reducing the use of blower machines, and composting dry leaves resulting from sweeping. The life cycle assessment approach can be used as a learning resource to strengthen environmental science education
