Abstract

Forest landscape management in the Wae Batu Merah Watershed (DAS) in Ambon City is a complex and urgent issue, given its strategic role in maintaining ecosystem balance, reducing natural disaster risks, and supporting the sustainability of natural resources for local communities. Forests in this watershed protect ecosystems from erosion and soil degradation and provide critical ecosystem services, such as clean water sources and biodiversity habitats. However, pressures from human activities, such as land-use changes, urbanization, and poorly planned management practices, have threatened the sustainability of forest landscape functions in this area. This study explores stakeholders' views and perceptions regarding forest landscape management in the Wae Batu Merah Watershed, Ambon City. This research employs in-depth interviews and field observations involving key stakeholders, such as the Forestry Department, the Provincial Forestry Technical Unit (UPTD) of Maluku, and the communities of Batu Merah and Soya villages. The results reveal that stakeholders’ perceptions of forest landscape management in the Wae Batu Merah Watershed fall within the moderate category regarding knowledge, understanding, and attitudes. These perceptions vary from full support to rejection. Support is generally associated with initiatives actively involving stakeholders and providing tangible benefits. Conversely, rejection arises when policies or management practices are perceived as harmful or insufficiently inclusive. These findings underscore the importance of collaborative and inclusive approaches to forest landscape management to achieve ecological and social sustainability in the Wae Batu Merah Watershed.

Abstract

Green open space is at least a minimum requirement for an environmentally sustainable city at 30% of the total area. Pressure on green free space, especially the Green belt area in the river border, tends to increase from year to year due to an increase in urban population. Therefore, this study aims to analyze people's perceptions of the green belt vegetation's role in the watershed of the Wae Batu Gajah watershed in Ambon City. The research method uses descriptive methods that describe a situation based on facts in the field and do not treat the object, with the hypothesis testing procedure using Chi-Square. The results showed that the community's socio-economic parameters consisting of age, formal education, and occupation had a significant influence on the understanding of the green border of the river. In contrast, gender and marital status parameters have no significant effect on understanding the green belt border. Formal education can influence attitudes and behavior through values, character, and understanding of a problem built in stages in a person. The type of work a person has for a long time working will affect the environment's mindset and behavior. The poor only have two sources of income, through salaries / informal business surpluses for basic needs.

Abstract

Ambon City is the capital of Maluku Province, which is experiencing rapid growth, which can cause environmental degradation and even ecological damage. Therefore, there is a need for sustainable urban forest management as a way to increase green open space. This study aims to analyze urban forest management's technical and social aspects using rationalistic methods through interviews and observations. The assessment results of the three main criteria with assessment indicators show that the understanding of the parties related to urban forests (1168) is included in the high category (1130-1452). The results of the parties' assessment regarding the existence of urban forests based on their function (511) from the score range (368-513) and indicators of forest harmony and balance are in (score 575) from the score range (441 616), each total score is in the medium category. The results of the study technically and socially showed relatively good results. However, urban forest management towards sustainable forest development has yet to be optimally implemented sustainably.

Abstract

This study evaluates the sustainability of Lake Faunil as the principal freshwater source for Tual City, located in a small-island environment characterised by limited groundwater reserves and increasing hydrometeorological vulnerability. Employing a quantitative–descriptive approach, the research analyses ten years of water-quality data—covering BOD, COD, DO, pH, and TDS—alongside seasonal discharge records to examine spatial and temporal dynamics. The results reveal that pH and TDS remain within the Class II water-quality standards established under Government Regulation No. 22/2021, indicating chemical stability and low salinity. In contrast, BOD and COD have consistently exceeded permissible limits since 2018, suggesting chronic organic pollution primarily linked to unmanaged domestic wastewater inflows. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) concentrations during the dry season frequently drop below 4 mg/L, signalling hypoxic stress and early eutrophication processes. Concurrently, discharge data demonstrate a declining trend, with dry-season flows decreasing to as low as 0.036 m³/s, reflecting the system’s strong dependence on rainfall and declining catchment capacity. A subsequent SWOT analysis substantiates these findings by identifying inadequate sanitation systems, riparian degradation, and weak institutional coordination as major internal constraints, while external opportunities include regulatory support, climate and public financing schemes, and the potential role of traditional institutions such as the Saniri Negeri in ecological governance. The study recommends adopting an Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) framework that integrates nature-based restoration, community-based sanitation and monitoring, and seasonally adaptive water allocation. Collectively, these strategies provide an evidence-based foundation for policy interventions to enhance freshwater security and resilience within climate-exposed island urban ecosystems.

Abstract

This study evaluates the flood vulnerability conditions of the Wae Batu Merah Watershed (Ambon City) through a socio-hydrology approach that integrates upland ecological dynamics with downstream exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. A mixed-methods design combined geospatial analysis and household surveys. Landsat-8 imagery (2013–2023) quantified land-cover change and NDVI trends, while BMKG rainfall records (2012–2023) and BPBD flood archives (2013–2022) captured hydrometeorological variability. Peak discharge measurements (2013–2023) characterized flow response. Social data from 178 households included settlement density, poverty, vulnerable age groups, disability, and institutional participation. All indicators were normalized and integrated using Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) in GIS; vulnerability classes were validated through observed flood-point overlays, distinguishing areal distribution from point aggregation. Results show a ~42% loss of upstream vegetation concurrent with a decline in NDVI from 0.46 (2013) to 0.28 (2023), alongside a ~17% increase in peak discharge, evidenced by a strong negative NDVI–runoff correlation. High-to-very-high vulnerability zones cluster along riparian corridors (Batu Merah–Rijali), whereas >90% of the area falls into medium-to-low classes with fewer flood points. Social vulnerability co-occurs with high density, poverty, limited risk awareness, and weak institutional engagement. The socio-hydrology–MCE framework offers a replicable basis for adaptive risk governance, prioritizing riparian setbacks, vegetation rehabilitation, density management, and capacity-building under increasing climatic pressure.

Abstract

Understanding groundwater flow dynamics through the Master Recession Curve (MRC) is critical in evaluating groundwater behavior following periods of extraction or cessation of rainfall. This study employs the Depuit-Boussinesq model for aquifer flow storage, wherein recession coefficients and constants are primary determinants of the MRC’s shape. This research aims to visualize the MRC using the Depuit-Boussinesq model to assess flow storage in small watershed areas within Ambon City, Maluku Province, Indonesia. The research methodology involved hydrological analysis across five watersheds, namely Wae Tomu, Wae Ruhu, Wae Batu Merah, and others, to model the relationship between recession constants, recession coefficients, and the MRC’s shape. Data collection included groundwater head and aquifer parameters measurements over the study period. The visualization results reveal variations in MRC shapes among the watersheds. The Wae Tomu Watershed exhibits a steeper MRC, indicating a sharp decline in groundwater head. In contrast, the Wae Ruhu and Wae Batu Merah Watersheds display more gradual MRCs, reflecting slower and steadier head declines. The recession constant of the Wae Ruhu Watershed is higher, indicating a larger storage capacity, while the Wae Tomu Watershed has a lower recession constant, representing limited storage capacity. Furthermore, changes in the recession constantly affect the delay in head reduction, influencing the MRC’s shape. This study underscores the significance of the relationship between recession coefficients, recession constants, and MRC shape in understanding groundwater flow dynamics. These findings provide valuable insights for more effective water resource management planning in small watershed areas.
