Abstract

This study used the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and Geographical Information System (GIS) to estimate the annual rate of soil loss, map erosion factors, and recommend a suitable pattern of land rehabilitation in Wai Tala watershed, Regency of Western Seram. The research material used in this study were rainfall data for 38 years, Digital Elevation Model Nasional (DEMNAS) Image Map, Rupa Bumi Indonesia (RBI), geology, soil, land use, and watershed boundaries of Maluku Province. Field research was conducted on 187 land units, and each land unit contained RUSLE erosion factors: topography, soil type, and land use. The spatial distribution of erosion factors was processed using the Arc.GIS10.8, and the soil erosion rates were estimated using the RUSLE method, then corrected using the land degradation model developed in small islands in Maluku. The results showed that the level of erosion hazard in the Wai Tala watershed was none to slight (mean = 3.54 t/ha/yr), moderate erosion (21.52 t/ha/yr), high erosion (110.01 t/ha/yr), and very high erosion (252.84 t/ha/yr). The recommended land rehabilitation patterns that can reduce annual soil loss lower than the tolerable limit are maintaining the none to slight erosion areas with the present land uses in particular primary and secondary forests, and with reforestation or agroforestry patterns combined with low to high-density garden plants or with low to high densities cover crop at the moderate to very high erosion areas.

Abstract

The high rainfall, rapid urbanization, and the presence of impermeable surfaces have drastically increased surface runoff, overwhelming river systems with high water volumes. Changes in land use and rapid population growth further escalate flood risks. Analyzing planned discharge rates and flood control building planning becomes urgent to mitigate losses and risks caused by floods in the Wai Ruata watershed. Calculations indicate that for the Q100 Log Normal (2475.17 m3/s, the channel height is 2.50302 m, closely approximating public information (2.5 m), with a difference of 0.00302 m or 0.302 cm. This suggests that the calculated maximum flood water level based on planned discharge analysis using the rational method for Log Normal probability of 2.503 m is reasonably accurate. It can serve as a reference for flood control building design heights, potentially lasting around 100 years in the Wai Ruata watershed. Planned flood discharges in the Wai Ruata watershed are as follows: for a 2-year return period, 505.80 m3/s (Gumbel), 449.27 m3/s (Log Normal), 462.56 m3/s (Log-Pearson Type III); for a 50-year return period, 1868.80 m3/s (Gumbel), 2016.26 m3/s (Log-Normal), and 1837.18 m3/s (Log-Pearson); and for a 100-year return period, 2137.98 m3/s (Gumbel), 2475.17 m3/s (Log-Normal), 2166.93 m3/s (Log-Pearson). Gumbel planned flood discharge data can be used for a 25-year lifespan of water structures, whereas for a 100-year lifespan, Log-Normal planned flood discharge is more suitable.
