Abstract

Sustainable land and sea use planning aims to balance environmental conservation with socio-economic development. This balance is particularly critical in coastal communities where traditional knowledge is plays a key role in resource management. This study examines land and sea use pattern in Yavusa Navakavu, Fiji, through participatory mapping, geospatial analysis, and landscape metrics. The results indicate that agriculture and forest cover dominate the land cover (53.85%), while the marine area is primarily used for fishing (79.91%). The forested area is characterized by a high level of landscape cohesion (99.07%) and a low level of fragmentation (Edge Density: 72.44 m/ha), indicating strong ecological connectivity and minimal urbanization pressure. The Locally Managed Marine Area (LMMA) system effectively supports conservation within the local community-based governance. However, the effects of climate change and development pressure are still significant. However, the impacts of climate change and development pressures from Suva City remain significant. Therefore, future research should incorporate high-resolution temporal data, socio-economic factors, and ecological monitoring to improve resource management and adaptive coastal planning.

Abstract

The Driyorejo sub-district is a buffer zone for the city of Surabaya due to limited land for the development of residential areas. Many areas are built up due to the influence of the city of Surabaya and that can be called urban sprawl. Urban sprawl is a phenomenon of urban expansion marked by a city’s size increase due to population growth and a rapid urbanization rate, or the movement of people from rural to urban areas. A level of urban sprawl with a high one can be found in the Driyorejo Sub-District, one of the sub-districts in the southern Gresik Regency. This study uses a quantitative method that is analyzed using correlation analysis to determine the relationship that occurs between urban sprawl and the characteristics of the community in the study area. According to the study's findings, three villages have low levels of urban sprawl, four have medium levels, and four have high levels. The relationship between the typology's findings and the neighborhood's social makeup—including its level of education, economic situation, the welfare of its families, and the cost of land—will then be apparent. People with pre-prosperous family status frequently reside in villages with a tall typology of urban sprawl because of the strong correlation between urban sprawl and the Pra Prosperous family. Additionally, those in the agricultural industry are closely related to urban sprawl.  Theoretically, people working in agriculture are more likely to select the same location for their primary residence and employment.
