Abstract

The series of eruptions from Mount Sinabung in recent years caused significant damage to the surrounding villages. This led to the implementation of a relocation policy. Three villages were relocated to the Siosar Relocation Area in the first stage, while four other villages were given the freedom to choose their new homes in the second relocation stage. The villagers moved from their hometowns to new places to start fresh lives. This raised questions about the relationships and social status of the relocated communities. The villagers lost their agricultural land. The government provided 0.5 hectares of land for farming for those who were moved to the Siosar Relocation Area and cash amounting to Rp. 20,000,000 for the second stage. However, the new land had different edaphic conditions, steeper topography, cooler temperatures, and new marketing arrangements. This raised questions about how these new conditions affected the economy of the relocated communities in both the first and second stages. Using a qualitative approach, this study applied in-depth interviews and direct observations. The findings showed differences in the social and economic conditions of the relocated communities between the two stages. Overall, the economic and social conditions of the people moved to the siosar relocation area were better compared to those who received cash in the relocation stage.

Abstract

The need to analyse environmental geography reference books in tertiary institutions sets the stepping stones for the book writer’s consideration. Students’ needs are essential in investigating the initial key stages of developing a new reference book. This study aimed to analyse the needs of content preferences, geography skills, and design formats of Environmental Geography reference books. It employed a quantitative descriptive method with an online survey through Google Forms. Using the snowball technique, the research subjects were students enrolled in Environmental Geography courses in Indonesia during the odd semester in 2022. Data were analysed descriptively. The findings indicated that Environmental Geography knowledge, geography skills, and design were key requirements for developing reference books. The students were primarily concerned with content-based and geography skills in environmental geography, not with lectures. The development of digital technology has no impact on students because of the prevalence of printed versions of reference books. Implications of the results were the key to integrating content, skills, geography, and design in creating learning resource products in Indonesia.

Abstract

One of the challenges in using student worksheets lies in their limited visual appeal, minimal interactivity, unclear instructions, and lack of technological integration, all of which fail to promote higher-order thinking skills and consequently reduce the effectiveness of learning and its relevance to contemporary students’ needs. This study aims to develop electronic student worksheets (e-student worksheets) based on the Assemblr Edu QR code that are valid and practical for students. This research employs the ADDIE model, which comprises five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The selection of the Research and Development (R&D) method was based on the need to design, validate, and produce a feasible digital learning product that aligns with the demands of technological innovation in the geography learning process. The study involved 184 Grade X students of SMAN 8 Banjarmasin, with data collected through observations and questionnaires. The research instruments included validation and product-effectiveness sheets. Validation was conducted by experts in materials, language, and media/learning technology, while teachers and students implemented effectiveness testing. The developed QR Code–based Assemblr Edu LKPD obtained material validation of 90.90% (very feasible), language validation of 95% (very feasible), and media/technology validation of 95.83% (very feasible). Product effectiveness reached 95.29% from teachers (very feasible) and 78.02% from students (feasible). These results indicate that the QR Code–based Assemblr Edu LKPD is highly appropriate for use in learning, particularly in geography instruction.

Abstract

Geography learning grounded in an ecopedagogical approach plays an important role in fostering students’ ecological intelligence, particularly in the context of contemporary environmental challenges. This study aims to examine the implementation of ecopedagogical approaches in geography learning, analyse students’ levels of ecological intelligence, and investigate the influence of ecopedagogical approaches on students’ ecological intelligence. This research employed a survey method with a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design involving 7 geography teachers and 206 students. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, Pearson correlation analysis, and simple linear regression. The results indicate that: (1) the ecopedagogical approach was implemented effectively at a high level (mean scores ranging from 1.88 to 1.95), although the indicators related to the use of the environment as a learning setting (1.90) and as learning materials (1.88) showed the lowest scores; (2) students’ ecological intelligence was also categorized as high (mean scores ranging from 1.59 to 1.98), with relatively lower performance in ecological systems understanding (1.59) and sustainable practice skills (1.86); and (3) correlation analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between ecopedagogical approaches and ecological intelligence (r = 0.430; p < 0.05), with a contribution of 18.5%.

Abstract

The high population growth in Jambi City has resulted in land conversion from vegetation to built-up land and settlements, and the use of motorized vehicles has increased the release of carbon emissions which also increase air temperature in Jambi City. To better understand and identify the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon, spatial and temporal analysis is needed using remote sensing data with a long series from 2000 to 2024. This study aims to examine the intensity of UHI in Jambi City by measuring the surface urban heat island index (SUHII) and the urban thermal field variance index (UTFVI) by utilizing the Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) products. Correlation analysis shows that Jambi City is an area with the highest LST and the lowest EVI index compared to the surrounding areas. The SUHI intensity in Jambi City has a positive value between 0.2 - 2.5 °C. Meanwhile, the intensity of AUHI between urban and suburban areas ranges from -0.2 - 0.3 °C during the day and -0.1 - 0.1 °C at night. The UTFVI index is in the range of 0.01 - 0.07. Although the intensity of SUHI and AUHI is not too large and the decrease in EVI value can be an indicator of UHI in Jambi City. The correlation test between LST and air temperature of the station has a sufficient category except for the correlation between LST and air temperature of the Kerinci Meteorological Station which has a very weak category.

Abstract

Land subsidence is a phenomenon that always occurs due to natural factors as well as human actions. Land subsidence has an even impact on all fronts. Land subsidence occurs continuously, therefore it is necessary to observe the phenomenon of land subsidence periodically using the GNSS method, which requires a benchmark that serves as a reference point for observation. With the need for a new benchmark devoted to observing land subsidence, it is necessary to do spatial modeling which is useful for finding out the suitability of the location where the subsidence observation point will be made. Spatial modeling was carried out using land cover data and lithology type to then be given weight and score and determined the soil movement vulnerability class into three, namely low class, medium class, and high class. The results of the spatial modeling of subsidence vulnerability show that the area12292.60 square kilometers is low grade, 20230.64 square kilometers represents medium class and 540.32 square kilometers is high class. Based on these results, the planning of the location of new observation points was carried out in areas with moderate to high levels of vulnerability with a total of 87 points scattered throughout the cities in Lampung.

Abstract

The Tirtomoyo sub-watershed is characterized by highland topography and is currently under considerable pressure from anthropogenic activities. Such conditions have contributed to significant soil erosion, which poses a major threat to land productivity and environmental sustainability in the area. The main objective of this research is to analyze the potential soil loss within the sub-watershed. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) method was applied, as it provides a systematic approach to understanding the relationship between soil loss and the contributing factors of erosion. These factors include soil erodibility (K), slope length and steepness (LS), land use (C), land management practices (P), and rainfall erosivity (R). The unit of analysis was based on land mapping units, allowing for spatially detailed assessment of erosion vulnerability. The results of the study indicate that the Tirtomoyo sub-watershed exhibits varying degrees of erosion susceptibility, with moderate erosion being the most dominant class. The physical condition of the area, consisting of rolling to steep terrain, combined with insufficient vegetation cover and limited conservation practices, has exacerbated soil loss. Field observations also identified the presence of gully erosion, where concentrated surface runoff has carved deep and wide channels, highlighting the severity of land degradation in certain locations. These findings emphasize the urgency of implementing appropriate land management strategies to reduce the erosion rate. Measures such as vegetation restoration, terracing, and improved soil conservation practices are essential to maintain land productivity and minimize environmental impacts.

Abstract

Indonesia's role is very important in preventing global temperature rise because Indonesia is considered the "lungs of the earth". Deforestation produces emissions that contribute to global warming. Most of the forest destruction in Indonesia is caused by illegal logging activities. Forests need to be protected. The purpose of writing this research is to analyze criminal law policies in protecting Indonesia's forests by conducting a study of criminal acts of forest destruction in Medan, North Sumatra. This research is normative or doctrinal legal research. This research concludes that the forest protection criminal law policy implemented by the Indonesian government involves the creation of legal and regulatory norms that regulate actions that constitute forestry crimes, accompanied by sanctions in the form of imprisonment and fines. These regulations are contained in the Forestry Law. In enforcing it, the Public Prosecutor also applies the Corruption Law to prosecute perpetrators of forestry crime. Protection of Indonesia's forests is not only carried out through the implementation of the Forestry Law but also through the implementation of the Corruption Law. By implementing the Corruption Law, perpetrators of forestry crimes are not only punished with imprisonment and fines. However, they are also required to pay compensation, which also takes into account the perpetrator's assets.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digitalization across Sub-Saharan Africa has created new opportunities for economic development, yet its impact on environmental sustainability remains unclear. This study investigates the relationship between digitalization and environmental quality in 41 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa over the period 2004–2023. Digitalisation is measured through internet usage, mobile subscriptions, and a composite ICT index, while carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions serve as the indicator of environmental quality. Prior to estimation, a collection of diagnostic tests was conducted to ensure methodological rigour and guide model selection. Employing a dynamic two-way fixed effects framework that accounts for both country-specific and time-specific effects, the findings indicate that digitalization contributes to improved environmental quality through reductions in CO₂ emissions. Renewable energy consumption is also found to mitigate environmental degradation, whereas economic growth, trade openness, and foreign direct investment tend to increase emissions. Notably, the Dumitrescu–Hurlin panel Granger causality test confirms a bidirectional causal relationship between ICT and CO₂ emissions, suggesting a feedback mechanism between digitalisation and environmental outcomes. Overall, the findings suggest that digitalization can support environmental sustainability in Sub-Saharan Africa when complemented by renewable energy expansion and appropriate environmental policies. The study provides policy recommendations for promoting environmentally sustainable digital transformation in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract

Land use and land cover (LULC) change driven by human activities has become a major factor influencing environmental dynamics, particularly in rapidly urbanizing areas. This study aims to analyze LULC changes in the Ciliwung Watershed, DKI Jakarta, during the period 2010–2025 and to project future trends up to 2030. The study utilizes Landsat imagery with a spatial resolution of 30 meters, combined with a Geographic Information System (GIS) approach and the Cellular Automata–Markov (CA-Markov) model. LULC classification was categorized into six classes, achieving an overall accuracy of 80% and a Kappa coefficient above 75%, indicating strong agreement. The results show a significant increase in built-up areas by 81.83% by 2030, accompanied by a decrease in open land by 18% and forest areas by 13.53%. Agricultural land and shrubland show slight increases of 1.57% and 0.82%, respectively, while water bodies remain relatively stable at 2.07%.  The expansion of built-up areas exerts considerable pressure on green spaces and reduces water infiltration capacity, thereby increasing the potential risk of flooding in the study area. These findings highlight the importance of implementing adaptive and sustainable spatial planning policies to control LULC changes and mitigate future environmental impacts.
