Abstract

Online learning is a relatively new thing for some teachers in South Kalimantan. It was the first time for these teachers to do online learning since the government took the policy of learning from home due to the disaster emergencies and environmental change. This study aims (1) to determine the perception of geography teachers in South Kalimantan who have just done online learning for the first time, and (2) to determine the quality of online learning that has been implemented based on the mean index value of each factor. The research was designed with a quantitative approach through an online survey of 26 geography teachers who teach 10th grade at the high school level. The sample was selected by Cluster Random Sampling. The questionnaire instrument used a modified the online learning quality index based on teachers and learners’ perceptions (OLQ-TLP). The research time was from December 2020 to February 2021. The results showed that teachers' perceptions of online learning were in a good category. Based on the index value, factors that have good quality are Learner content, Learner interaction, Instruction interaction, Social Presence, and Course design. Other factors still need to be improved, namely the factors of Learner satisfaction, Knowledge acquisition, Learning platform, Instruction, Learning support, and Ability of transfer. Therefore, to improve teachers' expertise in online geography learning on lithosphere material, training with an innovative Digital Education Shifting (DES) approach is needed.

Abstract

The establishment of Kulon Progo as a strategic zone must consider the threat of coastal disasters besides aspiring economic growth and development. By employing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for data acquisition, this research modeled flood inundation and developed theoretical contributions on tsunami hazard, vulnerability, capacity, and risk, as well as a procedural planning system for reconfiguring land use that emphasized the mitigation aspects. This study found that the tsunami hazard index in Glagah Village was in a low category, dominated by vacant land and sandy land, accounting for up to 25.38% of the total area. Besides, vulnerability and risk in Glagah Village were mostly in a moderate index, while its capacity was categorized as high since the village already had an evacuation route, a notable tsunami early warning system, and was equipped with safety gear. By combining the index values for hazard, vulnerability, and capacity, the tsunami disaster risk in Glagah Village was categorized as moderate. Spatial planning in Glagah Village recommended that the main facilities related to community activities, such as transportation and housing, be located in areas not exposed to the tsunami. This plan allows everyone to evacuate themselves while being reinforced by a security warning system that stays on alert. Furthermore, detailed spatial maps are expected to be useful as instruments for tsunami disaster mitigation at the pre-disaster stage by recommending better land use configurations.

Abstract

Urban Form has become necessary for city planning management to see the sustainability of a city. A better understanding of different urban forms is imperative to facilitate the evolution of cities towards a more sustainable urban development trajectory in the future. The study aims to analyze the dynamics of urban form and the changes in land cover within the peri-urban area of Surakarta City, which is directly influenced by the development of Surakarta City. The analysis was conducted from a landscape ecology perspective, employing a spatial metrics approach at the landscape level to assess the dynamics of urban form using quantitative descriptive, including a spatial approach. A similar approach was adopted at the class level in order to examine the dynamics of land cover changes. The results of the image analysis were validated using the Kappa index, yielding an image accuracy level of 0.86 (86%). The results of this study show that the urban form in the peri-urban area of Surakarta City tends to move towards a compact urban form. Meanwhile, each land cover, vegetation, and water body become increasingly fragmented, with areas becoming narrower as time passes. Built-up and agricultural land are becoming more compact and concentrated along with development. In conclusion, the dynamics of urban form in the peri-urban area of Surakarta City tends to lead to compact urban form.

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

Soil moisture indicates the dryness of the ground surface. This phenomenon is directly tied to vegetation quality and Land Surface Temperature in a specific place. As a result, these characteristics indirectly describe the dryness of the ground surface. This study assessed agricultural drought in Niger River in Nigeria. Data used include MODIS driven MOD13Q1 (NDVI), and MOD11A2 (LST) datasets obtained from Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center. These datasets were used to compute Vegetation Condition Index (VCI) and Vegetation Health Index (VHI) in Niger River Basin, Nigeria. Additionally, correlation and regression analyses were used to check the relationship between LST and NDVI. Results revealed that the mean NDVI for the year 2002 is 0.494, 0.477 in 2007, 0.468 in 2012, 0.458 in 2017 and 0.430 in 2022. The mean LST in Niger River Basin for year 2002 is 32.28 oC, 32.12 oC in 2007, 32.35 oC in 2012, 33.20 oC in 2017 and 33.41 oC in 2022. For the statistical relationship between NDVI and LST, results exhibited negative correlation, with -0.33 in 2002, -0.43 in 2007, -0.42 in 2012, -0.36 in 2017 and -0.27 in 2022. For the VCI results, findings revealed that the mean VCI in the basin was 83.73 in 2002, 64.26 in 2007, 56.76 in 2012, 45.32 in 2017, and 14.93 in 2023. Also, the VHI results revealed that the mean VHI in the basin was 75.44 in 2002, 69.54 in 2007, 61.02 in 2010, 37.22 in 2017 and 18.87 in 2022. The study therefore concluded that vegetation is decreasing in the basin, while land surface temperature is increasing.

Abstract

Erosion was a process that led to decreased land productivity and soil layer depletion. Four factors affected erosion, including erosivity, erodibility, slope and land cover. This study aimed to assess erosion predictions based on the results of field measurements or terrestrial surveys and the RUSLE method. Precet Forest Park was the location of the research facility. Erosion prediction was conducted by measuring slopes using Total Station. The RUSLE technique with five variables was used to calculate erosion values. These factors included the slope factor (LS), plant management index and ground cover vegetation (C), soil erodibility (K), rain erosion (R), and soil conservation measures (P). The calculation results indicated that the erosivity value (R) was 254.5, the K value was 0.46, the average LS value is was 8.39, the C value was 0.1, and the P value  was 0.9. Calculations using the RUSLE method yielded an average value of the amount of eroded soil in Precet Forest Park of 86.37 tons/ha/year with a soil solum depth of >90 cm. Based on the erosion classification, the grade was classified as class II (Medium). In general, erosion was categorized as high to very high in the middle slope areas of the mountain. This was due to land cover characterised by thick vegetation. In addition, the soil management practices also reduced the value of erosion in Precet Forest Park.

Abstract

The destruction of houses and facilities by landslide causes deaths. In this context, the level of destruction and subjective description of the characteristics can be examined through landslide parts determination. Therefore, this study aims to determine potential landslide hazard zone and houses potentially affected. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) are morphometric surveys combined with surface morphodynamics to show potential hazard zones of landslide parts. Meanwhile, Data Elevation Model (DEM) is used to delineate relict landslide and the concept is verified by field observation and orthophoto. Morphometric measurements are collected at each slope gradient by GNSS and surface morphodynamics are investigated on the entire relict landslide area by direct observation and orthophoto data. The combination of morphometric and morphodynamic data describes hazard zone of relict landslide. In addition, the integration of orthophoto and landslide hazard zone data is used to determine potentially affected houses. This study was conducted on landslides 1 and 2 with zone classifications of very high, high, low and very low. The results show that there are different conditions and the most hazardous parts of landslides 1 and 2 are the foot and body, respectively. A total of 75 and 50 houses were potentially affected by landslides 1 and 2, respectively. Identification of hazard zones based on landslide parts determines the boundaries of the area affected. The addition of surface activity processes determines the level of hazard in each of parts, while the combination of morphometric and morphodynamic data shows landslide zone.

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

Gunungkidul Regency, one of Indonesia's karst regions, frequently experiences droughts. This study aims to investigate the causes of drought disasters and provide adaptation strategies for disasters that may occur near karst areas in Gunungkidul Regency. We used Google Scholar to identify drought causes on the study site. The next stage is making appropriate adaptation strategies using a qualitative and comparative analysis technique. The three main components that cause drought disasters in Gunungkidul Regency include climate characteristics, hydrogeological characteristics, and anthropogenic factors. Some proposed adaptation strategies to address the impacts of drought disasters include planting crops with low water requirements, adopting conservation agriculture and utilizing organic farming, applying structural adaptation strategies, developing agroforestry, giving farmers financial assistance, paying compensation to drought-affected families, distributing knowledge about drought adaptation strategies, reducing family food demand, suggesting seasonal migration, and reducing livestock. Working with multiple stakeholders is essential to putting these adaptation strategies into action.
