Abstract

Recent uncertainties in rainfall amount and intensity have increased drought. This situation has prompted the need to assess the intensity of the adoption of the drought mitigation strategy. This study analyzed ten drought mitigation strategies (DMS) among households using the descriptive statistical approach in Tharaka South Sub-County, Kenya. About 397 samples from 18,623 households and 3 key informants were selected as informants. They were selected using cluster random sampling and purposive sampling, respectively. Data collection was done through questionnaires, interviews, and observations. The study revealed that planting drought-tolerant crops (89.7%), crop diversification (84.2%), and rainwater harvesting (78.1%) were among the top three widely adopted DMS for drought mitigation. Community programs (23.2%), irrigation (15.1%), and soil conservation (6.1%) had low adoption among households. The households are more likely to adopt simple strategies. Therefore, policy support is needed for less implemented strategies, such as soil conservation and irrigation.

Abstract

Flooding is the most dominant disaster in Indonesia, with a major case in Greater Jakarta in March 2025, which is the issue of deforestation is highlighted as the main cause of this phenomenon. This study examines the relationship between vegetation canopy and built-up land on flood vulnerability. The analysis was conducted by correlating vegetation and built-up land indices against flood vulnerability maps from the National Disaster Management Agency using the Weighted Overlay method. Results show vegetation has a moderate correlation to flood vulnerability, while built-up land shows a lower correlation. The findings indicate that both contribute to flood risk, but are not a single factor. The study recommends further research with a spatio-temporal approach in smaller areas to be more specific.

Abstract

Amid escalating climate risks, climate literacy is crucial for enabling community resilience. In Indonesia, the core principles of climate literacy are embedded in long-standing local wisdom across diverse cultural landscapes. This study employs a qualitative, literature-based approach to explore how indigenous practices, ranging from forest and coastal conservation to water, soil, and disaster management, embody climate knowledge. Thematic analysis reveals that these practices reflect adaptive, context-specific strategies aligned with sustainability science. However, formal climate policies often overlook or marginalize traditional knowledge due to epistemic biases. The findings advocate for integrating local wisdom into climate education and governance through participatory and co-productive models. Such integration not only validates indigenous knowledge but also enhances the cultural relevance and effectiveness of climate strategies. Recognizing local wisdom as a legitimate foundation for climate literacy offers a path toward more inclusive, resilient, and grounded responses to the climate crisis

Abstract

The Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon is one of the most significant environmental impacts resulting from land cover changes in urban areas. This study aims to analyze the relationship between land cover change and the UHI phenomenon in South Jakarta through the use of remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies. The data used comprise Landsat-8 OLI/TIRS from 2015 to 2018 to generate NDVI, NDWI, NDBI, Land Cover, and Land Surface Temperature (LST) indices. Pearson correlation test was also conducted to determine the variables that most influence the UHI phenomenon. The land cover changes, particularly the expansion of built-up areas and the reduction of vegetation—directly contribute to an increase in surface temperature. The correlation analysis reveals that NDBI consistently exerts the strongest influence on UHI (0.55), followed by NDWI (0.21) and NDVI (0.18). This research underscores the critical importance of land-use regulation as a strategic approach to mitigating UHI in urban environments.

Abstract

Agriculture has long been considered a rural activity. However, rapid urbanization and rural–urban migration have reduced agricultural land and increased urban food demand. Consequently, urban farming has grown, attracting significant research interest. This study sought to analyze the ecological usefulness of urban farming in line with the greening of Nkubu town and waste management. A sample of 95 households practising urban farming was selected using Nassiuma's (2000) sample size calculation formula. Questionnaires, interviews, and remote sensing were used to collect data. The study found that urban farming played a key role in reducing urban waste through recycling and increasing the aesthetic value of the town. The study also revealed that despite the urban residents adopting urban farming at high magnitudes in the town, the urban green spaces have been reducing since 2010. It was evident that the green spaces are losing out to build–up areas in Nkubu town. The study recommends that urban farming be recognized in the county development plan and that urban residents adopt the new urban farming technologies.

Abstract

Kupang Regency has significant wind energy potential, offering opportunities for wind farm development to address electricity shortages and support the transition to green energy. This study aims to analyze the wind energy potential in Kupang Regency for wind farm development. The weighted overlay method used integrates various criteria to determine the feasibility of recommended locations. Parameters such as wind speed, elevation, and land use were processed using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. The results indicate that the southern and northern regions of Kupang Regency are optimal for wind farm development, considering high wind speeds (6 m/s), suitable land use (shrublands or sandy areas), and favorable elevation (highlands). The integrated analysis identified moderately potential, potential, and very potential zones covering 108,734.20 ha, 53,391.24 ha, and 7,198.73 ha, respectively. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for effective renewable energy planning and help address the energy crisis in the region.

Abstract

Cisarua District, situated on the Lembang Fault line, has a high risk due to its proximity to densely populated settlements and its potential for large-magnitude earthquakes. This study aims to analyze the deformation of the Lembang Fault in Cisarua District from 2014 to 2024 using Sentinel-1A and TerraSAR-X imagery data, as well as Digital Terrain Model (DTM) analysis from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, employing the high-resolution Differential Interferometric SAR (DInSAR) method. The deformation levels vary from low to high, with a dominance of moderate deformation levels. High deformation was identified on the north and northeast sides, adjacent to the active tectonic zone. The DTM analysis revealed a steep topographic gradient with an elevation of 975.9–1395 masl. The combination of deformation and steep topography indicates a significant risk of landslides. The results of this study are expected to assist in disaster mitigation in the Cisarua District due to the deformation of the Lembang Fault.

Abstract

This study assess soil mineralogy and prevailing weathering conditions within the Palakkad Gap, 22 surface soil samples (0–25 cm depth) were collected based on geology, geomorphology, lineament patterns, and land use. Samples were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD; model 600) to determine mineralogical composition (Moore & Reynolds, 1997). The diffraction patterns indicated the presence of quartz, feldspar, kaolinite–illite, gibbsite, goethite, mica, chlorite, calcite, and vermiculite. Quartz and feldspar were interpreted as lithogenic minerals derived from the parent rock, whereas kaolinite, gibbsite, and goethite represent pedogenic weathering products formed under variable pH regimes. Thin-section petrography revealed altered feldspar margins and fractures infilled with Fe-oxides, indicating early to moderate stages of chemical weathering. Mineralogical assemblages in the Palakkad Gap reflect the combined effects of lithology, climate, and geomorphic processes on soil and landscape evolution (Ollier & Pain, 1996; Birkeland, 1999).
