Abstract

Landslides are natural events that can be worsened by human activities, leading to significant destruction of life and property. In Tawangmangu District, situated on the slopes of Mount Lawu, the landslide risk is amplified due to factors such as volcanic soil, steep terrain, and high rainfall. This research seeks to map landslide hazards in the area by utilizing a Geographic Information System (GIS) and the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), combining both static and dynamic factors contributing to landslide occurrences. The study considers seven critical factors: slope, distance from roads, geology, land use, soil type, rainfall, and proximity to geological faults. Expert opinions are used to assign weights to these factors, which are then integrated into a GIS model to assess susceptibility to landslides. The area is classified into five risk zones. The results show that 21.97% of the region faces high and very high risks, while 39.57% is moderately vulnerable. The highest-risk areas are those with steep slopes and significant human activity, such as road construction and land-use changes for tourism. Model validation, comparing the predicted landslide zones with actual landslide locations, shows that over 75% of landslides occurred in high and very high-risk areas, confirming the model's accuracy. This study underscores the importance of sustainable land use planning, effective infrastructure management, and vegetation preservation in reducing landslide risks. Future mitigation efforts should focus on monitoring land use changes, strengthening vulnerable infrastructure, and enhancing early warning systems to minimize further landslide damage in the region.

Abstract

Effective waste management is one of the key efforts to achieve sustainable tourism development. The purpose of this study was to examine the waste management model in the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park area, particularly in the Sea of Sand. The results of this study are expected to provide normative benefits to all stakeholders managing Bromo as a tourist destination and serve as evaluation material for addressing waste issues in the Sea of Sand area. The study was conducted in May 2022 using a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection methods included observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The sampling technique used in this research was purposive sampling, or criterion-based selection, considering the validity of information provided by specific respondents with relevant expertise. The primary informants consisted of the management of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, government officials, guides, and the local community. The research findings indicate that waste management in the Bromo destination area is still suboptimal. Existing facilities are insufficiently representative, and utilities related to solid waste need further development. Furthermore, the coordination of waste management efforts has not been effectively implemented. Recommended measures for stakeholders in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park to improve waste management include: (1) developing waste management systems; (2) restricting the number of visitors to Bromo; (3) enhancing tourism utilities, such as environmentally-conscious signage systems; and (4) developing and maintaining tourist facilities and infrastructure.

Abstract

The landscape appearance of Srigonco Village is unique. This uniqueness can be used as a means of learning geography. This study aims to analyze the tourism potential and landscape appearance of Srigonco Village as a means of supporting geography learning. The method used is a field survey by making a working map which is then used to identify tourism potential and landscape appearances. Analysis of natural tourism potential was carried out using neighborhood analysis and analysis of landscape appearance using qualitative descriptive. The study's findings indicate that the tourism potential of Srigonco village is dispersed, with clusters of caves and ponor in the center, an elongated area to the south with beaches, and scattered springs around the community. In addition, the research location has fluvial, karst, and marine landscape elements such as caves, rivers, beaches, waterfalls, and biodiversity preservation, can also be utilised for natural tourism. Srigonco Village's topography can be utilized to teach geography, particularly in the study of geomorphology, hydrology, biogeography, disasters, tourism, and socio-culture. The application of geography learning can be carried out through field activities, research, or project-based learning to provide students with the opportunity to learn directly from the environment.

Abstract

Students should be the primary beneficiaries of teachers' TPACK proficiency. This study aimed to investigate the proficiency of pre-service geography teachers in Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) through the lens of student perceptions. TPACK, a framework that integrates technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge, is crucial for effective teaching in the digital age. By understanding students' perceptions, this research sought to identify areas where pre-service teachers excel and where they might need further development. The respondents of this research were public high school (Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri/SMAN) students from Langsa City, Aceh Province. The number of respondents involved was 184 students. They came from SMAN 2 Langsa, SMAN 4 Langsa, and SMAN 5 Langsa where the pre-service teacher was placed during their teaching practice. The research method used is quantitative descriptive based on a questionnaire which aims to measure TPACK proficiency in pre-service geography teachers according to student perception. The results of the study showed that pre-service teachers' TPACK proficiency was very good based on the respondents' perspectives, especially in the aspects of pedagogy and geography content knowledge. However, technological knowledge has results at the good level, which is lower than the other two aspects. Based on these results, the recommendation offered is that the technological capabilities of pre-service geography teachers should to be improved to provide a better learning experience for students.

Abstract

The coastal areas of Semarang City have experienced land conversion due to development activities that threaten mangrove sustainability in recent years. The urgency of this research is the need to monitor mangrove density levels to be used as input in its management. The purpose of this study is to analyze changes in mangrove density levels and the occurrence of abrasion in time series using the Google Earth Engine cloud computing model. The research method used visual interpretation and spectral transformation of NDVI and MNDWI to identify spatial distribution, mangrove density and abrasion. The results showed that there was a significant decrease in mangrove area in 2019-2023 with an area of 111.74 hectares. Furthermore, the level of mangrove density is quite dynamic, especially for high density with a decrease in area from 2019 - 2023 with an area of 260.25 hectares, besides that the decline in high density mangroves also occurred in 2015 - 2023 with a decrease in area of 38.73 hectares. Abrasion in the research location was identified in 2 coastal villages, namely Mangunharjo Village with abrasion along 0.88 km (2015 - 2023) and Tugurejo Village with abrasion along 1.04 km, where both areas also experienced a decrease in mangrove area at a high-density level. In conlusion, there has been a decrease in the area and density of mangroves in the study site, one of which has an impact on abrasion.

Abstract

Providing open space in densely populated settlements is challenging due to the lack of open land. In contrast, open space is essential in these settlements as a place for social interaction in highly communal settlements. In addition to these challenges in riverbank settlements, planning open space is also necessary, considering the landscape's characteristics and the settlement's unique culture. This study investigates the potential of alternative spaces as a solution for providing open space. The study began by observing the population's activities to be mapped according to age group and gender. Data were collected in settlements along the banks of the Musi River in Palembang. Identification began by mapping open space on a spatial map showing the location and distribution and the type of open space in the settlement area. Open space is formed informally in various spaces in the settlement. Multiple demographic groups generally use six types of open space. Furthermore, the data was processed using contingency and distribution analysis to see the size of the group in activities in the open space, the activities carried out, and the location of the open space. The results of the analysis show that different needs and patterns of involvement in groups of adults, adolescents, and children must be considered in planning and design. This study concludes that optimizing open spaces according to residents' activity patterns can solve the limitations. Riverbanks have the potential to serve as open spaces, requiring further longitudinal and qualitative research to understand usage patterns and community perceptions.

Abstract

Bali has become Indonesia's leading destination in the global tourism industry, attracting a growing number of investors and privatization efforts. Nusa Dua has been designated as a site for implementing contemporary tourism concepts in Bali, prompting repurposing several areas for new commercial initiatives. The transition has resulted in conflicts among stakeholders over the decades. This study aims to examine methods for addressing conflicts that occur due to Nusa Dua’s spatial changes by identifying the key stakeholders of spatial planning with various interests. The analysis of stakeholders uses qualitative methods that include content analysis, stakeholder analysis, and literature review. DANA software version 1.3.3 is a semi-quantitative analysis used to determine the root cause of the conflicts. The result shows that conflicts over land use decisions are the most contentious in Nusa Dua’s spatial planning policies. This conflict arises due to misunderstanding and misalignment in spatial planning, leading to policy implementation challenges. This study suggests resolving conflicts and enforcing spatial policies by improving stakeholder understanding and communication. A stronger legislative framework for tourism-related development, enhancing stakeholder cooperation schemes, and encouraging sustainable growth are recommended.

Abstract

Bantul is one of the regencies in the Special Region of Yogyakarta that was affected by the damage, losses, and casualties due to the Yogyakarta earthquake disaster in 2006. The current condition with the potential for a Megathrust earthquake in the South of Java Island is a special concern in determining the resilience of an area, determining what needs to be improved in preparedness, and providing alternative non-structural mitigation that can be carried out in dealing with earthquakes. This study was conducted to determine the resilience index in social and economic aspects which were then described into six derivative variables. The method used in this study uses literature studies and sequential data analysis. Secondary data is used to calculate the resilience index with predetermined weightings. The results showed that the resilience index in 2021, 2022, and 2023 in the social aspects of 0.985, 0.981, and 0.979 and economic aspects of 1.05, 1.08, and 1.06. During these three years, the index resilience of the social aspect has decreased so mitigation was needed to increase social aspect resilience and prepare the community to face earthquake disasters. One of the non-structural mitigation efforts that can be done is by providing education or training. The economic aspect also needs to be improved with several non-structural mitigation alternatives such as increasing and creating jobs and developing micro, small, and medium enterprises by maximizing the potential of local resources.
