Abstract

There are some characteristics and distributions of unconfined groundwater variation in the research area. Those are related to a system of water supply and consumptive use for drinking water. Variation of the groundwater characteristic depends on variation of morphology. Therefore, it is needed to delineate hydromorphology units of the regions as a base on groundwater resources management, especially for drinking water. The aims of the research are: (1) to study of the characteristic and distribution of unconfined groundwater variations base on landform units, (2) to study the factors that affect such variations, and (3) to establish the hydromorphology units of the regions for groundwater resources management, especially for drinking water. The method used in this research is landform approach and field survey. The sampling method is stratified sampling, based on landform as the analysis approach. Result of the research shows that there are some variations of groundwater characteristic at each landform. Landforms which have good groundwater characteristic are Hydromorphology Unit of Fluvio Volcanic Plain of Young Merapi (except Bayat region) and Hydromorphology Unit of Volcanic Foot Plain of Young Merapi. At those units, there are good quality of groundwater, bicarbonate water (hydrochemical type I), having low electric conductivity, shallow of water table, low in fluctuation, and middle to fast class in aquifer permeability. Those units are the most potential unconfined groundwater resources management for drinking water. The units which have poor groundwater characteristic are Hidromorphology Unit in Bayat Region, including Undulating Alluvial Plain, Fluvio Volcanic Plain of Young Merapi, and Swamp Alluvial Plain. Generally, the groundwater quality is medium to poor, the hydrochemical type is Va (initiation process of connate water) and type III (evaporate water), shallow up to medium of water table, and low to middle class of aquifer permeability. The taste of groundwater is brackish to saline with high concentration of chloride.

Abstract

Magma activities on earth surface cause dynamic of volcanic morphology from the volcanic cone up to fluvial volcanic plain. The changing of morphology is always followed by different slope, composition and thickness of material, and break of slope. This geomorphological conditions result in groundwater emerges forming spring belt. Accordingly, wether such phenomena are also the case in the west slope of Lawu volcano is investigated in this reseach. Hydrogeomorphology approach is applied to study of the spring characteristic and distribution in the research area. The result research shows that the distribution pattern of springs in the west slope of Lawu volcano is not like spring belt perfectly, like the strato volcano generally. It is caused by erosion processes, mass wasting intensively, Lawu fault and other faults. Most springs flow on the volcanic slope and volcanic foot morphology.

Abstract

This research was conducted within some villages in the surrounding area that administratively including Arguni Bay District, Kaimana Regency, West Papua. The main objective of this study is to vertically measure resistivity value of aquifer with the intention of recognizing deep groundwater potency as a source of native’s domestic needs. In addition, VES method by Schlumberger electrode array was applied within 18 locations, which expectantly represent the whole area of research. The resistivity data is then interpreted by IP2Win 2.1 Geoelectric Software to entirely describe the aquifer system as well as the occurrence of groundwater. The result indicates that vertically, the aquifer system is dominated by interbedded of claystone and sandstone (argillite group) as a past marine environment mineral. In addition, geomorphological and resistivity sounding interpretation gives a viewpoint that the landforms of the research area may be typified as Structural Mountain with the slope direction is towards the island beaches. Also, structurally, the main groundwater system is fractured aquifer with very limited productivity of groundwater resources. As consequences, this aquifer is more to be an aquitard, rather than an aquifer.

Abstract

Baturagung hill is a folded hill range consisting mainly of Tertiary volcanic rocks which have been undergoing severe faulting, jointing and weathering. Lies on the altitude between 200 and 700 meter from see level, the area is characterized by sloping to steep relief with 30% to >40% of slope, and shallow soils with scattered outcrops. Such geomorphological setting has made the area subject to intense soil erosion and masswasthing. Mining activates has also been accounted for the explanation of the current heightened land degradation in the area. The present paper, accordingly, is intended to identify the land degradation by considering mass movement, bare land, and mining activity parameters. The present paper founds that the Baturagung hill can be divided into three zones, namely: (1) the zone of no to low degradation (hill slope and inter-hill valley); (2) the zone of high degradation rate (within the area having 30 to 40% of slope); and (3) the zone of severe degradation (within the area having slope of more than 45%).

Abstract

Purpose of this research is to study on aquifer hydrostratigraphy that can be a geo-indicator of geomorphological processes on the past, that describe of landform genetic in the research area. The research method is survey. The framework of analysis in this research is landform genetic. The results of the research indicate that: (1) "the forming of aquifer hydrostratigraphy in the research area is controlled by some of main processes in geomorphology, that show of landform genetic specifically". The research area consists of 3 aquifer hydrostratigraphy systems, each of the aquifer system has the typical characteristic, showed by system and pattern of material stratigraphy in the aquifer and variation of groundwater characteristic in the unconfined aquifer. (2) "spatiotemporally, landform genetic in the research area influences on the forming of aquifer hydrostratigraphy in the 3 phases, i.e. the first stage at the end of the Tertiary epoch (end of Pliocene era), second stage at the Quaternary epoch (as long as the Pleistocene period), and third stage at the Holocene era". The genesis and chronology of landform forming in the 3 phases above influence on the forming of system and pattern of aquifer hydrostratigraphy in the research area.
