Abstract

Rock lithology modeling of flood-prone areas has been carried out using the Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) method in Rawa Makmur village, Bengkulu city. Field data acquisition using a stretch length of 160 with the MAE X612-EM Geoelectric tool forming a straight line. VES method, using Excel software for resistivity variations with depth and Progress lithology modeling. This research aims to determine the subsurface condition of flood-prone areas and the characteristics of rocks that make up flood-prone areas. The results of this study can be concluded that the Rawa Makmur village is dominated by sand (0,2-50 Ωm), silty sand (1-35 Ωm), gravel sand (20-150 Ωm) and clay (65-250 Ωm) at several points. VES 1, VES 2, VES 3, VES 4, VES 5, VES 8, and VES 9 have a shallow water table of 1-10 meters, close to the Rawa Makmur river and have a rock structure that is saturated with water so that it cannot absorb moisture on the surface and becomes a flood puddle. The characteristics of rocks that make up flood-prone areas are porous stones such as sand and gravel saturated with water. Sites that are not prone to flooding in the Rawa Makmur village at points VES 6 and VES 7 are dominated by the rock structure of sand (20-65 Ωm), gravel sand (100-200 Ωm), and dry gravel (100-1000 Ωm).

Abstract

Abrasion disaster in the coastal area of Padang Betuah Beach has a high level of abrasion in Central Bengkulu. The local community utilizes abrasion in the coastal area as a tourist attraction and becomes local revenue in the research location. The location that becomes a tourist attraction is decreasing because the coastal area’s land has been abraded. After conducting research using the electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) method in 2D and 3D, it was found that claystone dominated the coastal area at the research location with a resistivity value of 16-200 Ωm at a depth of 15-20 m. The coastal area in Padang Betuah Beach is composed of clay shale rocks (207-220 Ωm), and the depth is 2-14.8 m. Clay shale rocks are not abraded in stones with resistivity values >250 Ωm. This is caused by clay shale, which has low porosity, so it has a compact rock density. Seawater is identified at a depth of 21-63 m with a resistivity value of 2.225-10.2 Ωm. The depth of seawater determined follows the average height of the cliffs in the research location. The abrasion process can be slowed down by making jetties, water breakers, and mangrove cultivation.
