Abstract

In general, hydrological cycle in forested areas is a complicated phenomenon. In Himalaya the vegetative cover plays a vital role in determining several hydrological characters. For the experimental study of oak and pine forests hydrology, two representative basins are selected in the Central Himalaya. After evaluating the hydrological properties of oak and pine forests, it is decoded that both the vegetation types have different hydrological characteristics. However, with the destruction of vegetation and top soil, rainfall quickly runoff as stormflow instead of soaking into the soils.

Abstract

This paper examines the role of rainfall in the urban development of Kenya. The rainfall characteristics have been analysed and their influence on agricultural and urban development assessed. It is noted that since Eldoret is one of the rapidly expanding towns in Kenya located in highly potential agricultural region, variability of rainfall and drought can seriously affect urban development as farmers in the hinterland will abandon their farms and migrate to the town thus creating food shortage. Secondly, in times of drought, the water supply problems in the town will be exacerbated as it depends on surface water source. The tempo of rural-urban migration will be speeded up and this will create more socio-economic problems.

Abstract

Water supply in Yogyakarta municipality is mainly originated from two main sources, the pipe water and groundwater. The pipe water which is operated by the local drinking water authority does not suffice for the water demand of the people in the city. Tire second source is groundwater, which is used by most people in the city by traditional system. The aquifer of the Yogyakarta which consists of volcanic materials erupted by Merapi volcano is fairly good, however the expansion of the city area toward the northern and north eastern area may reduce groundwater recharge. The rapid growth of population and other city facilities such as hotels may cause groundwater supply to decline. Groundwater quality in certain area may subject to pollution by domestic wastes, assigned by the high content of chemical substances such as iron and sulphate, besides high content of coliform bacteria, and nitrite. Heavy metals were undetected in the groundwater of the area

Abstract

This study deals with an application of SPOT satellite data for mangrove forest inventory in Cimauuk Delta West Java (Indonesia). Mangrove of the area (7100 Ha) has been gradually decreasing by human pressure especially for fisheries purposes. In fact, mangrove here is a result of afforestation since1960, with Rhizophora mucronata and R. apiculata as main planted species. Other species are Lunmitzera racemosa, Excoecaria agallocha, Bruguiera gymnorhiza and Avicennia which grow naturally. SPOT data were digitally analysed using Didactim software. A color composite image was analysed. A barycentric supervised classification and textural analysis were applie.d. As an intermediate data, infrared color aerial photographs at 1130,000 (1981) were interpreted manually.At least two mangrove types of mangrove could be identified from the SPOT image. Dense mangrove was found in Petak 7, Petak 8, Petak 9 and Petak 12. In the other Petaks, mangrove were less than 20% of their surface. Mangrove of Rhizophora in 26 Petaks covered 290 Ha only.

Abstract

Indonesian volcanism is related to the subduction (genie zones of the Lido-Australian and the Pacific-Philippine plates at the contact with the Asian plate. Rows of volcanoes perpendicular to the plate movement point to steepening of the subduction zone. with time. Strafo volcanoes and also ignimbrite plateaus associated with socalled "volcano-tectonic" depressions Of deep-seated faiths are major features. •Fluvio-volcanic flows and slopes arc common due to the humid tropical climate. Large volcanic landslides and debris flows causing rupture of crater or caldera rims and the collapse of slopes also arc important volcanic geomorphological features.The role of geomorphological survey and the use of aerospace technology in volcanic hazard zoning is emphasized

Abstract

Although over 70 per cent of the labour force is engaged in agriculture, Africa is loosing the capacity to feed itself. Drought, a fast growing population, widespread deterioration of the countryside, as well as a chronic undereinvestment in agriculture, have all contributed to declining yields and a vicious cycle of poverty from which the peasant farmer and African countries have increasingly found it difficult to escape.The need therefore is most urgent for African governments to reexamine their food and agricultural policies to tumble them provide more food for their growing population. Encouragement of large and Medium scale commercial farming, land reform, environmental management, reduction of population growth, improvement in storage and transport facilities as well as pursue political stability and a cessation of the violent conflicts that have characterized the continent, will reduce the food problem in Africa.

Abstract

The search for appropriate methods for valuing natural resources and monctising externalities is a pressing problem facing many governments, particularly those of the developing countries. While the Nigerian government allocates 2% of its annual gross income for ecological damage restitution (The Ecological Fund), experiences arising from incessant disputes in the oil producing areas, fishing sites, increasing incidence of soil erosion and flooding and other environmental problems, all point to the need to supplement the Ecological Fund with money from other sources.Most environmental degradation resulting from mithropogenic prococcrs in water resource projects can be ascribed to the "common property" perception of water and associated natural resources. Moreover, in deciding which environmental regulations, and water resource projects and programmes are desirable or otherwise, it is imperative to weigh the negative socio-economic impacts, againts the very real beneficial effects. Such a process will entail better monetary quantification of the cost-benefit analysis of the projects and programmes, particularly during environmental impact assessment process.This paper focusses on the use of the willingness-to-pay (WTP) approach for determining the amount of money that people in selected large-scale irrigation and dam project areas in the Sudano-Saludian zone of Nigeria are willing to forego for the sake of environmental protection in the watershed. After a general description of the problems and approaches to valuing and monetising environmental resources and their protection, the details of the study findings and policy implications are discussed.

Abstract

This paper highlights the result of a study carried out to examine the Geographic determinants of import traffic distribution at the Port Harcourt Port. A substantial aspect of the study involved building a regression model to estimate import distribution from the Port. The import function was specified in log-linear form. The adequacy of the model was then tested; this, involved statistical experiments to obtain the R-squared, as well as t and f values. Further test on the adequacy of the nwdel was conducted through diagnostic exercises designed to check for inulticollinedrity and heteroscedasticity, in the data used. Results obtained show that road distance and manufacturing industries are significant Geographic determinants of import Cargo distribution at the study Port. It is therefore important to lake the two variables into account in any policy or planning exercise at Port Harcourt Port.

Abstract

Economic geographers have become increasingly interested in the importance of the 'cultural economy' to cities and regions, but rarely have results been sought or discussed for Southeast Asia or nations in the developing world. This article responds to this lacuna by charting an economic geography of cultural production in Indonesia, examining two sources ofpublicly available data: the United Nations Statistics Division's COMTRADE database of trade statistics, and DISb2b Indonesia (a commercial database of business location details in Indonesia). Results are discussed for the period 1996- 2002, for which reliable data are available. While both sources are limited (and such limitations are discussed here), they provide enough insight for some conclusions about the character of 1ndonesia's cultural economy to emerge. In contrast to studies of cultural economy in overseas contexts, Indonesia's culture-related exports are dominated by emphasis on hardware and manufacturing output, rather than intellectual property or 'symbolic' content. In keeping with overseas examples though, the geography oflndonesiak cultural economy displays high levels of metropolitan primacy. Results suggest that theories of cultural economies must be re-shaped to include consideration of regional and international flows, in addition to locally-unique class, cultural and economic dynamics in particular cities and regions.

Abstract

The seasonal variability of Indonesian rainfall is almost entirely controlled by the Asian monsoon and so displays two distinct seasons, i.e. wet and dry seasons with transition periods in between. The onset of the monsoon varies with places, therefore, when dealing with seasonal rainfall, different researchers/authors have different way referring to the seasons. Hence, one definition may not be appropriate for all places. This problem creates a necessity for identifying the period of the season so that it can be used for Indonesia as a whole.This paper examines the spatial variation of the seasons over the Indonesia region and demonstrates the application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to solve the above mentioned problem, namely to identify the period of the seasons in Indonesia as a unity. The analysis is performed using monthly rainfall data from 63 stations spread across the country covering the period of 1947 to 1999 (52 years).The results support the fact that the wet season onset starts early in the northwestern part of Sumatra and propagates eastward and southward. It is not surprising if the north-western part of the country experiences a longer wet season than the east-northern part does. It is also shown that PCA is a useful tool for identifying the period of the season in Indonesia. Through the analysis, it is found that there are three types of rainfalls which have important influence on the year to year variation of the annual rainfall, i.e: the wet season (December to March), the dry season (May to September), and the dry-to-wet transition (October to November).
