Abstract

Labuan Bajo is an emerging coastal tourism destination in Indonesia, which is also part of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Komodo Biosphere Reserve located in the East Nusa Tenggara region. Recent tourism developments have transformed Labuan Bajo from a rural area into an urban area, and significant land use changes have followed. This new urban area development will attract tourists as well as population migration. The ongoing issue is to develop the urban infrastructure and facilities of Labuan Bajo in an integrated and sustainable way, considering the carrying capacity following the high demand for tourism and migration. This study investigates the transition pattern from rural to urban areas on coastal tourism. It calculates existing carrying capacity based on the availability of attractions in Labuan Bajo tourism as a coastal destination, including the Komodo National Park area. The study results in Labuan Bajo's carrying capacity have yet to exceed its limit calculated based on the number of existing visitors and as projected in the tourism master plan. However, Labuan Bajo has already shown the urban typology characteristics required to transform the sub-district into a small city. Tourist visits must be distributed outside the Komodo National Park area and to other destinations in the East Nusa Tenggara archipelago to balance the growth and impact of tourism and its supply chain. Environmental, economic, and sociocultural carrying capacity shall be considered in destination management to guarantee measurable sustainable tourism practices in the long run.

Abstract

Measuring the national and sub-national progress in achieving such globally adopted development agendas as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is particularly challenging due to data availability and compatibility of indicators to measure SDGs, especially in Indonesia. This paper attempts to measure the performance of sustainable development at the regional level in Indonesia by newly constructing a multidimensional composite index called the Regional Sustainable Development Index (RSDI). RSDI comprises four dimensions, covering comprehensive economic, social, environmental, and governance indicators. By applying factor analysis, the paper assesses the uncertainty of RSDI and the sensitivity of its composing indicators, then further investigates the relationship between RSDI and the Human Development Index (HDI). RSDI is proven to have high precision with low uncertainty. A significantly positive relationship between RSDI and HDI suggests a consistent direction between both progresses (0.7726). RSDI in Indonesia can be categorized as medium-high level, with two provinces (East Nusa Tenggara and Papua) having low RSDI. RSDI helps identify provinces with the latest progress in SDG performance, allowing the government to prioritize interventions for provinces lagging behind.

Abstract

Sea urchins, soft-shelled invertebrates (Echinoderms), crucially contribute to cleaning the ocean bottom. However, sea urchins in tropical waters like Indonesia have not yet been fully disclosed. This study was conducted at Hutumuri and Rutong waters, Ambon City. This study assessed physical-chemical parameters, sea urchin species composition, classification, and community structure. Employing the Line Transect method with 5x5 m quadrants and 50m transect spacing, data analysis included density, relative density, frequency of presence, diversity, uniformity, and dominance indices. Results indicated normal temperature and salinity at both stations, supporting sea urchin life, with rocky and sandy substrates deemed suitable. A total of 1,772 sea urchins were identified, led by Echinometra mathaei and lowest in Echinothrix calamaris. Classifying sea urchins revealed four species from three families: Echinometridae (Echinometra mathaei), Toxopneustidae (Tripneustes gratilla), and Diadeimatidae (Echinothrix calamaris and Diadema antillarium). Echinometra mathaei dominated Station 2 with 879 individuals, while Echinothrix calamaris was least abundant at Station 1, Echinometra mathaei density peaked at Station 1, while Echinothrix calamaris had the lowest at Station 2. Station 1 showed the highest diversity, Station 2 exhibited the highest uniformity, and Station 1 had the highest dominance. These findings offer insights for sustainable marine resource management in the studied area.

Abstract

A study on the viability of implementing sustainable reporting in Indonesian agricultural cooperatives is exceptionally uncommon, given the underlying concerns raised by the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Regulation No. 51/2017. In order to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, this project intends to investigate the potential of indicators of economic, ecological, and social sustainability. Employing the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) method, this study analyzes the content of 85 sustainability reports using the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G4 reporting framework to determine the correlations between different sustainability categories and how they affect agribusiness and evaluate the impact on the business. The majority of agricultural firms exhibit a strong positive association between economic, environmental, and social performance measures, as demonstrated by the results and discussion. However, the environmental and human rights categories have a weak and marginal correlation in economic practices, employment, and decent work. These results suggest that improved economic performance can contribute to agribusiness's environmental and social performance. This study confirms the feasibility of implementing sustainable reporting in Indonesian agricultural cooperatives. This study emphasizes the necessity of a thorough and uniform reporting structure that successfully incorporates sustainability's social, environmental, and economic facets. The results provide valuable insights for Indonesian agricultural cooperatives who want to improve their sustainability practices and contribute to sustainable development. Cooperatives are encouraged to adopt sustainability reporting practices to improve transparency, accountability, and overall impact on economic, environmental, and social dimensions.

Abstract

The developments of the global economy and society impact resources and the environment. This condition requires an alternative to find new, safe, and sustainable energy types. The conversion of cellulose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) has become a significant area of research interest. It has triggered the development of research directions related to biomass and energy because it can be an intermediary source for making polymers, solvents, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels. The primary objective of this study is to give a bibliometric analysis of 1753 reports on the development of research on cellulose conversion to 5-HMF from 1965 to 2021. The data were gathered from the Scopus database using the keywords “conversion of cellulose” and “5-HMF”, and they were then subject to content and bibliometric analysis. VOSviewer is a software used for data analysis that can visualize the linkages and map the outcomes of particular study objects. The results show increased annual publications in the last five years with cross-disciplinary collaborations in scientific fields. In terms of publications, the United States tops other nations (550 documents), whereas Indonesia is rated 34th (15 documents). Based on VOSviewer analysis, the overlay visualization of research trends by year shows that the keyword of the process of converting cellulose to 5-HMF is a relatively recent study topic compared to other cellulose topics. By identifying specific suggestions and strategies for the development and utilization of biomass energy based on the analysis of the relationship and interaction between the utilization of biomass energy and the environment, this work is beneficial for researchers to choose future research topics.

Abstract

Metropolitan cities face escalating reliance on private transportation, exacerbating traffic congestion and air pollution. To address these issues, promoting eco-friendly alternatives like Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), and electric vehicles is crucial. This study aims to explore the integration of green transportation to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), utilizing bibliographical analysis with VOSviewers tools. Scopus-indexed articles (2010-2022) were scrutinized using keywords: "Green Transportation," "Manila," "Bangkok," "Jakarta," and "Sustainable Development Goals."Findings reveal the adoption of green transportation in Manila, featuring electric motorbikes, bicycles, and the transformation of private transport into e-jeepneys. Bangkok showcases electric ships for water transport and student bicycle usage, fostering an eco-conscious campus. Jakarta highlights dedicated pop bike lanes and widespread use of MRT and BRT, offering cost-effective alternatives to private transportation. These successful implementations position the cities towards achieving SDGs. This study's outcomes serve as a reference for future research, guiding endeavors to replicate successful green transportation initiatives in metropolitan settings. The hope is that these interventions will mitigate traffic congestion, air pollution, and carbon emissions in urban environments.

Abstract

The South China Sea research agenda has increased over the years. However, no scientometric studies have been performed on this topic, which has helped analyze the research on the South China Sea throughout many years. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the global findings of previous research on the South China Sea, development trends, and trending issues surrounding the sea. Literature was extracted from the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database, and the CiteSpace software was used to visualize the data analyzed. The survey included 12,755 articles. Overall, the number of publications increased annually. Acta Oceanologica Sinica and the Chinese Academy of Science are the journals and affiliations with the most relevant studies, respectively. China is at the forefront of research regarding the South China Sea, with more than four times as many articles as the USA. The most common keywords were variability, ocean, model, evolution, circulation, and water. The most recent keywords were East Asian monsoon and metabolite, indicating a shift in research priorities. This study is the first to perform a scientometric analysis of the South China Sea. This study is expected to assist researchers, academics, and investigators in exploring potential research directions in the South China Sea. The study also hopes to contribute towards Sustainable Development Goals 11 and 14, Sustainable Cities and Communities, and Life Below Water.

Abstract

Indonesia has 17,204 islands registered, named, and coordinated by Geospatial Information Agency (BIG). The number of islands can threaten maritime boundary disputes between provinces, districts, and cities. One of the disputes is the claim over Pulau Tujuh, which is mutually contested for ownership by the Province of Bangka Belitung and the Province of Riau Islands. This study aims to analyze the marine management zone of the Pulau Tujuh claim. It is carried out using the cartometric method. This study of regional boundaries refers to the Regulation of The Minister of Home Affairs of The Republic of Indonesia 141 of 2017, where the withdrawal of sea boundaries uses a normal baseline. A province can claim 12 nautical miles of maximum sea area. Furthermore, the boundary is drawn using the median line principle if two areas face each other fewer than 24 nautical miles. Three scenarios determine marine management zones: Pulau Tujuh is status quo, Pulau Tujuh is included in Bangka Belitung and Riau Islands. The first scenario shows that the marine management zone of the Bangka Belitung has an area of 37,157.84 km2, and the Riau Islands have an area of 92,853.55 km2. The second scenario results in Bangka Belitung having 39,644.96 km2. In the last scenario, Riau Islands has an area of 95,340.67 km2 maritime management zone. Pulau Tujuh does not significantly influence the marine management zone of each province, whereas Bangka Belitung (6.27%) and Riau Islands (2.61%). General allocation funds or Dana Alokasi Umum (DAU) increase would be 3.36% for Bangka Belitung and 2.25% for Riau Islands if Pulau Tujuh included Rp 22,800,736,812. This result implies that each province wants to defend its argument that Pulau Tujuh falls under its administrative territory.

Abstract

Climate change and other environmental problems have become a global concern. Intrinsically, this creates higher education institutions such as Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) taking part in various green campus measurements to address this problem. This study analyzes the factors of how higher education institutions such as UMY and USM initiate green campuses and sustainable universities. It assumes these two universities align with the implementation of green campus initiation despite their different university status. This research is qualitative research using a comparative study between UMY and USM. This research data uses interviews from the university website, especially university leaders and all related stakeholders, and secondary data such as relevant documents and articles related to this study. Therefore, in this study, the authors use the framework theory of planned behavior, which systematically analyzes the factors that influence the behavior of stakeholders, especially university leaders, by looking at three factors: environmental motive and concern, educational university programs, and promotional activities. By employing planned behavior analysis, it was found that both universities have initiated to become green campuses by implementing various programs and collaborating with stakeholders such as Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), communities, and other academic communities. In addition, participating in green campus measurements demonstrates the role of UMY and USM in contributing to good university governance. It reflects their role as universities in mitigating the impact of climate change caused by using non-environmentally friendly energy and waste. All in all, the two universities, UMY and USM, have vital initiatives in the practice of sustainable university.
