Abstract

The problem of riverbank degradation due to erosion and landslides is an important problem in river basin management, especially in the Krueng Meuh Sub-watershed. Bamboo plants have a strong root system and a dense clump structure, so they have great potential in soil and air conservation on riverbanks. This study aims to identify the types of bamboo that grow on riverbanks and analyze their role in riverbank conservation in the Krueng Meuh Sub-watershed. This study is a descriptive exploratory study by exploring the riverbank along 50 meters from the left and right banks of the river. The methods used include direct observation of bamboo morphology, collection of plant characteristic data, and assessment of conservation potential based on clump density and root system strength. The results of the study found five types of bamboo in the Krueng Meuh Sub-watershed, namely Duri Bamboo (Bambusa bluemeana), Talang Bamboo (Schizostachyum Brachcladum), Betung Bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper), Ampel Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris), and Regen Bamboo (Gigantochloa pruriens). Each species has different morphological characteristics and root systems, and contributes to the stability of riverbanks. The bamboo species with the highest potential in protecting riverbanks are Dendrocalamus asper and Schizostachyum Brachcladum based on root strength and clump density. In conclusion, betung bamboo and talang bamboo have the highest effectiveness in protecting riverbanks due to their deep roots and dense clump structure. Riverbank vegetation management by considering local bamboo species can be an effective and sustainable conservation strategy.

Abstract

River Watersheds (DAS) in Indonesia have an important role in the hydrological cycle and ecosystem, but many are in critical condition due to high deforestation. This research focuses on the Peusangan watershed in Aceh Province, which has experienced significant levels of deforestation in recent years. The aim of the research is to analyze the rate of deforestation in the Peusangan watershed in 2022-2023 and understand its impact on the local ecosystem. The method used involves analyzing land cover data using Geographic Information System (GIS) technology with satellite image data. The research results show that there was forest loss of 1,066 hectares during this period, with a deforestation percentage of 1.49%. These findings provide a real picture of the forest damage that has occurred and the importance of conservation measures to maintain the sustainability of the Peusangan watershed ecosystem. It is also hoped that this information can increase public awareness about the negative impacts of deforestation and encourage active participation in forest conservation efforts.
