Abstract

Field research was carried out to elucidate the trajectories of the temporal changes in vegetation and soil faunal diversities in wetlands caused by conversion of forests to oil palm plantations. Soil blocks sizing 30 cm x 30 cm x 30 cm were evacuated from three oil palm fields with three different ages (i.e., 2 years, 6 years, and 10 years old), as well as in secondary forest on peat soils. Fauna found in the blocks were subjected to 70 % ethanol sterilization before hand sorter and identification. The diversity index of earthworm was calculated based on the Shannon-Wiener formula. Quadrats were employed to determine the plant structure (i.e., species abundance). A t-test was employed to assess the differences between treatments. The results showed that the ages of the oil palm cultivation affected vegetation and soil faunal structures. The diversity indexes of earthworm were 0.12, 2.49, 1.77, and 1.73 in secondary forest, 2, 6, and 10 years-old oil palm fields, respectively. Similar trends occurred on diversity of Imperata cylindrica. These findings suggested that the diversities of Imperata cylindrica and soil fauna in wetlands in the tropics increased at early development of oil palm development and decreased onwards.

Abstract

South African wetlands are disappearing at a rapid rate. Considering the vital functions they provide, they require optimal protection and, where appropriate, restoration. In line with protecting and restoring the environment, section 28 of South Africa’s National Environmental Management Act 107/1998 (NEMA) makes provision for the duty of care and remediation of environmental damage (DOC). This enforceable duty rests upon every person (natural and juristic) to, amongst others, prevent pollution or degradation of the environment or to stop, minimise, and rectify such pollution or degradation by taking certain measures. For wetlands, this duty is bound to the idea of 'ecological restoration’ (ER), which is defined as “the process of helping to recover an ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged or destroyed”. This paper, through the selected theoretical framework for ER, sets out the literature to provide the foundation for 1. the international obligation of restoration; and 2. a critical analysis of section 28 of NEMA through the selected ER framework for wetlands ecosystems. The research reveals the gaps in support of the argument that the DOC principle may lack in addressing the full embodiment of ER and providing the consequences of such failure. Thus, calling for the amendment of section 28 of NEMA (DOC) to include the appropriate provisions and the removal of superfluous and confusing provisions such as ‘significant’. However, there is scope for the improvement and development of ER for the 2024 proposed National Joint Wetland Management Policy.

Abstract

Flooding in the city of Palembang is a serious problem for the government because it causes large property losses and continues to spread. Spatial analysis to identify flood-risk areas is very necessary to provide information as a first step in future flood disaster mitigation efforts. This research aims to identify factors that influence flood levels in Palembang City and create a spatial model of flood-risk areas in Palembang City. This research uses two approaches, namely Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Geographic Information System (GIS). The results show that, the parameter that has the highest influence is land use at 37 %, then the rainfall parameter at 21 %, the slope parameter at 17 %, drainage density parameter at 12 %, elevation parameter at 7 % and soil type parameter at 6 %. Based on the GIS method, it is known that the flood-risk very low level covering an area of 1,141,69 hectares (3.17 %), the low flood-risk level covering an area of 4.889,44 hectares (13.58 %). The moderate flood-risk level area (the most extensive level) is 12.125,47 hectares (33.67 %), the high flood-risk level is 9.183,52 hectares (25.50 %) and the very high flood-risk level area is 8.656,54 hectares (24.09 %).

Abstract

The floating markets of Banjarmasin represent a vital cultural attraction in South Kalimantan, yet they encounter challenges in balancing modernization with sustainability. This study examines the role of digital platforms such as social media, websites, and mobile applications in promoting sustainable tourism at these markets. Utilizing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, the paper analyzes existing research on the effectiveness of digital tools in enhancing tourist engagement, expanding market visibility, and encouraging environmentally responsible tourism. The findings indicate that digital platforms can boost the visibility of Banjarmasin’s floating markets, attract a broader spectrum of visitors, and support sustainable tourism practices. Nevertheless, significant challenges persist, particularly regarding the integration of local communities and the preservation of the river ecosystem. This study underscores the necessity for digital strategies that align with sustainability principles, ensuring tourism benefits for both the local economy and the environment. The review offers insights for tourism operators and policymakers on leveraging digital branding to advance sustainable river tourism development in Banjarmasin, and provides practical recommendations for future growth.
