Abstract

This research is an application of remote sensing technology for monitoring and evaluation of watershed management, which was conducted is Solo Watershed, Central and East Java. The research objectives were 1) to investigate the capability of photomorphic analysis of Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) and Enhanced Themmatic Mapper (ETM +) imagery as the basic for analyzes of landforms, landuse, and morphometry of the land surface; 2) to calculate the overland flow – peak discharge and erosion – sediment yield as indicators of land degradation of the area; 3) to use the indicators as set of instrument for monitoring and evaluation of watershed management. In this study, visual interpretation by means of on-screen digilization of the digital imagery was carried out in order to identify and to delineate land parameters using photomorphic approach. Based on the photomorphic analysis, several image – based parameters such as relief topography, physical soil characteristic, litho – stratigraphy, and vegetation cover were integrated with other themati maps in a geographic information system (GIS) environment. Estimation of overland flow (C) based on Cook methods (1942) and calculation of peak disccharge (Qmax) based on rational method (Qmax = C. I. A) were applied. Meanwhile, estimation of surface erosion was carried out using Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE, A = R. K. L. S. CP). The sediment yield (Sy) was estimated using seddiment delivery ratio ( SDR) based on the following formula: Sy = [A + (25% x A)] x SDR. Both pairs of C – Qmax and A – Sy, were utilized as the basis for monitoring and evaluation of the watershed. The combination of C – Qmax and A – Sy were also used as the basis for selection of stream gauge setting / AWLR within particular sub – catchment. It was found that the photomorphic analysis is only color/tone, slope aspects, pattern, and texture, unit boundaries between volcanic – origin landscape (Wilis volcanic complex) and folded – hills landforms (Kendeng ridges) can be delineated. Within the volcanic features, coarse – textured units indicating pyroclastic materials with high drainage density (western part of Lawu volcano). In terms of calculated overland flow and peak discharge of 100 sub – catchment within the Solo Watershed, it was found that there are four sub – catchment with relatively high values ( 0.60 and 1200 m3s1 for overland flow and peak discharge repectively), namely Samin (Karanganyar), Keduang (Wonogiri), Dengkeng (Klaten), and Sungkur (Ponorogo). Five sub-catchment might be categorized as having moderate peak discharge (Qmax ranges from 1000 – 1200 m3s1), namely Ketonggo (Ngawi), Keyang (Ponorogo), Gandong – Semawur (Magetan), Pepe (Boyolali), and Soko (Bojonegoro), while the remaining 91 sub-catchments are categorized as having low peak discharge. Based on the calculation of erosion and sediment yield, there was no sub-catchment with moderate category (60 – 180 ton ha1yr1), i.e. Samin (Karanganyar), Gonggong (Magetan), Ngisip and Kedung Cilik (Tuban), and Pepe (Boyolali). The other 95 sub-catchment might be categorized as gentle to good. In terms of values representing overland flow – flood and erosion – sediment yield, there are several sub-catchments require first priority in monitoring and evaluation, and are recommended as suitable sites for stream gauge setting, i.e. Samin (Karanganyar), Gonggong (Magetan), Ngisip and Kedung Cilik (Tuban).

Abstract

Town in veri dynamic area. Growth of populatio, both natural and  migration (urbanization), need area for the settlement and their activities. Neccesity of area for settlement can’t be avoided. As a result, there is a landuse changing from non settlement area (set field, dry field, swamp, pond) to settlement area. This change will influence the hydro system balance in Semarang, for instance the extending of flooding area, etc. This research tries to find the characteristi of landuse change in Semarang. The characteristic involving how is pattern, process, intensity, and tendency. Pattern of landuse changing is sequence of using area before it became the settlement. Process of landuse change is by using the population are able to settle. Tendency is degree of landuse change speed. This research methods secondary analysis method, that is compare the statistic data of the landuse and map in 1980 and 2000. The sampling is by purposive random sampling method. Purposive is used so that all subdistricts in sub urban are represented. The sample area is the from percil in ertain coordinate. Result of this research shows that there is landuse changing rapidly that is decrease in the width of wet field, dry field, swamp, and pond. On the other hand, there is increase in width of settlement area and other dry land with intensity 232 ha every years. Wet field decrease 131,7 ha every years, swamp and pond 31 ha, and dry field 24,2 ha every years. In actually this landuse changing pattern is out of government policy. Semarang conversed. However, wet field is water habitat that is most potential. Tendency of sttlement growth is more facus on accesibility aspect and available city’s facilities only. Number of settlement are built on land which not suitable, such labile land, or high slope. It proves that the government control function is weak. The conclusion from this research that landuse changing has to be ontrolled restrainded, so it will not cause the bad effet in Semarang. Width the wet field is 10% by width town, must be conservation. Because wet field has ecology value and economic value that is rice production and absorb labour in agricultural sector. Therefore, function role of government controll must be actived.

Abstract

The growth of urban population tends to increase constantly but some towns show faster growth than others. Ultimately the urban area extends tremendously, and a new urban environment is created. Graveyard is one phenomenon that an not be neglected from this process. Duc to their strategic locations, some portions have undergone changes in economic, social, and environment values. For the time being lands used for graveyards are constantly increasing. The competition with other uses can not be avoided anyway and land conservation must be carried out concomitantly.

Abstract

The study aims to analyse quality of water from overlandflow in the sub-urban area having high of to houses, in the Sinduharjo, Sleman regency. In the sub urban area, the run off originated from paved and impermeable are which is not uniformaly distributed over the area. Run off is iniated from detention storage and overlandflow. Therefore any water pollution of the runoof begin from overlandflow which dissolves constituent within the soil and rock materials. Land cover also determines the dispersion agent of rain water thus the affect the material dissolved in the water. As an input into the catchment system, rainfall affects overlandflow, quantitative, and qualitatively. Overlandflow from open space in the sub-urban area was evaluated based on physical and chemical characteristics. Overlandflow from urban area has chemical parameters such as C, NO2, NO3, and PO4 are higher than those in overlandflow from rural area which is covered by forest and garden. Overlandflow shows BOD and COD in relatively high concentration. Overlandflow is not recomended to be discharge into infiltration wells, unless it is free from parts having high significant contamination.

Abstract

Spatial rainfall interpolation requires a number of suitable validation samples to maintain accuracy. Generally, the larger the areas which can be predicted, the better the interpolation. In addition, the data used for validation should be separated from the modelling data. Moreover, the number of samples determine optimally proportion the independent sites. The objective of this study is to determine the optimal sample ratio for holdout validation in interpolation methods; the Makassar Strait was chosen as the study location because of its daily rainfall variation. The accuracy of the sample selection is tested using correlation, root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and the indicators of contingency tables. The results show that accuracy depends on the ratio of the modelling data. Therefore, the more extensive the data used for interpolation, the better the accuracy. Otherwise, if the rain gauge data is separated according to province, there will be a variation in accuracy in the portion of independent samples. For rainfall interpolation, it is recommended to use a minimum 75% of data sites to maintain accuracy. Comparison between kriging and inverse distance weighting or IDW methods indicates that IDW is better. Moreover, rainfall characteristics affect the accuracy and portion of the independent sample.
