Abstract

Form factors and volume models are often be used in the estimation of tree volumes. However, a few studies have developed and evaluated the accuracy of form factors and volume models for estimating tree volumes of community forests. This study aimed to formulate form factors and volume models and assess their prediction accuracy for estimating tree bole volumes of mahogany at community forests in Central Java. This study used 120 sample trees with diameters of 6–38 cm to formulate artificial and absolute form factors and to develop tree bole volume models. These form factors coupled with bole height and total height were used in simple volume equations. Regression analyses were used to develop volume models using the diameter and total height as predictors. The simple volume equations and volume models' prediction accuracy was evaluated using a cross-validation dataset and independent dataset (30 sample trees). The artificial form factor (0.68 ± 0.11) of mahogany, which was higher than the absolute form factor (0.46 ± 0.09), provided accurate estimates of tree bole volumes when it was used with the bole height instead of the total height. The volume model that uses diameter and total height produced the most accurate estimates, while the volume model that uses diameter alone provided the most practical yet reliable tool for estimating tree bole volumes of mahogany. The results of this study are useful for improving community forest management.

Abstract

Forest and land fires are a high source of emissions in South Sumatera. In line with the national policy, South Sumatera Province commits in reducing emission, include emission from the forest and land fire. This research was aimed to assess carbon loss affected by fire in the year of 2015 that covered 3 districts in South Sumatera i.e Musi Banyuasin, Banyuasin, and Musi Rawas. The research was conducted by remeasurement of carbon stocks plots on 4 forests and land type i.e. secondary peat swamp forest, secondary dryland forest, bushes swamp, and forest plantation. Carbon stocks measuring are conducted on sample plots in a rectangular shape of 20 m x 50 m of size for various types of natural forest and a circle shape in the radius of 11.29 cm and 7.98 cm respectively for forest plantation of < 4 years and > 4 years old. Furthermore, carbon stocks in each plot are measured for 3 carbon pools of above-ground biomass, deadwood and litter. The result shows that carbon loss was varying on each forest and land type. The largest number of carbon loss occur on secondary peat swamp forest of 94.2 t/ha that equivalent to the emission of 345.4 t CO2eq. The second largest of carbon loss occur on secondary dryland forest of 36.3 t/ha following by forest plantation and bushes swamp of 18.5 t/ha and 13.5 t/ha.

Abstract

Biomass estimation of secondary forests is required to support the emission reduction of carbon dioxide through an enhancement of forest carbon stocks. Commonly, forest biomass is indirectly estimated using tree biomass allometric models that are developed based on a destructive sampling of sample trees. The availability of biomass allometric models for secondary forests in Indonesia is still limited, particularly for secondary forest ecosystems in eastern Indonesia. This study aimed to develop allometric biomass models for mixed-species trees in a secondary forest of East Halmahera, North Maluku, and to compare their accuracies with some other allometric biomass models that commonly used for estimating biomass of secondary forests. The tree biomass measurement was conducted by using a destructive sampling of 18 mixed-species trees (with diameter range of 5,4 – 36,9 cm) in a secondary forest. The samples of each tree component (stem, branch, twig, and leaf) were analyzed in a laboratory to determine the biomass of each sample tree. Allometric models were developed by using a non-linear regression analysis, which were then compared with other allometric models. This study revealed that the biomass of mixed-species trees in the study area could be estimated accurately using the M7 model that used diameter, height, and wood density variables. Such local allometric model was more accurate than other allometric models commonly used for estimating tropical forest biomass. Alternatively, the M3 model that used diameter and height variables could also be used when wood density data was not available. The local allometric models from this study can enrich the availability of biomass allometric models for secondary forest ecosystems in eastern Indonesia.

Abstract

Forest quality plays a crucial role in sustaining the functions of forest ecosystems. This study aims to develop a valid and reliable model for assessing forest quality through six dimensions: forest productivity, forest structure, soil factors, climatic conditions, topography, and anthropogenic factors. Vegetation data were collected from 138 sample plots using a stratified purposive sampling method. Soil, topography, and climate data were obtained from the SoilGrids, DEMNAS, CHIRPS, and NASA POWER websites, respectively. Anthropogenic data were derived from Sentinel-2 imagery. The forest quality assessment model was developed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Results showed that forest structure, forest productivity, soil, and anthropogenic factors are valid and reliable in assessing forest quality, with forest productivity as the primary determinant. However, topographic and climatic factors were not valid for assessing forest quality due to the low variation in topographic and climatic data within the study area. The goodness-of-fit model evaluation indicated a good fit based on criteria including the chi-square, RMSEA, GFI, SRMR, AGFI, TLI, CFI, NFI, and CMIN/DF. Based on the relative weights of each dimension and indicator and using linear additive equations, a mathematical equation for the forest quality index is derived, providing a practical framework for assessing forest quality at the landscape scale, particularly in heterogeneous tropical ecosystems.

Abstract

Monitoring land cover change is essential for sustainable spatial planning in regions undergoing rapid development. This study aimed to evaluate Land cover changes in Central Bengkulu Regency during the 2008–2024 period were analyzed using the Maximum Likelihood Classification (MLC) method, which identified nine land cover classes with moderately good accuracy (Overall Accuracy of 66.7% and Kappa coefficient of 61.3% for Landsat 5 imagery in 2008, and 58.0% OA and 50.1% Kappa in 2024). Significant land cover dynamics were observed, with notable increases in shrub and plantation areas, and substantial decreases in primary dryland forest, rice fields, and open land. Change Vector Analysis (CVA), combining NDVI and NDBI indices, proved effective in detecting both the magnitude and direction of land cover change. The largest change category was "Stable/Not Significant" (±65,000 ha), followed by "Rehabilitation/Recovery" (±24,700 ha), and "Urban Development" (±10,800 ha). These changes reflect the strong influence of socio-economic drivers such as population growth, land conversion for oil palm plantations, and settlement expansion, as well as ecological factors such as degradation and natural succession. The results indicate that the integrative approach of CVA and spectral indices can serve as a reliable spatio-temporal analysis tool to support spatial planning and sustainable land management policies, particularly in newly established regions vulnerable to land conversion.

Abstract

Private timber distribution in Ciamis faces efficiency challenges due to high operational costs, limited spatial information, and middleman dominance in the supply chain. This study aims to (1) identify timber trade institutions, (2) determine spatially optimal distribution routes, and (3) design an efficient distribution model. Methods include institutional surveys, slope- and elevation-based spatial analysis, and Linear Programming optimization via Excel Solver. Results show that optimal routes combine high safety percentages (88.27% recommended routes) with minimal transportation costs. The optimization model increased profit by IDR 32.17 million/month while reducing operational costs by 1.45%. This integrated spatial-optimization approach enhances logistical efficiency and supports sustainable private forest management.
