Abstract

The different between permanent and non permanent mobility lies with the will or will not intend to settle at the destination residences. If someone move to another residences and does not intend to settle permanently then this kind of movement is called circular migration. Migrant motivation usually has economic motive, urban-migrant is bigger than rural-migrant in quantity. Rural-migrants are generally the transmigrants whose activity is in farming sector. Circular migration is much more than permanent migration. Such a thing is caused by centripetal and centrifugal force of same power. Population is faced with the problem of selection, to settle at the rural with hard economy condition or migrate to another region. To solve the problem, then, they usually decide to move to the other region performing circular mobility. Circular mobility gives a positives  effect in economic condition, education, and development to the region where the migrants come from. The presence of consigment and new ideas transfered to the rural. Such a thing will bring the workers rural development.

Abstract

Jayapura City is situated in the eastern tip of Indonesia and borders the neighboring country Papua New Guinea (PNG).  Its geographical conditions are very diverse dominated by hills leading to the formation of separated urban areas. Currently, there are two major urban areas, Jayapura and Abepura. Historically, Jayapura and Abepura were two old towns established in the Dutch rule, namely Hollandia Haven and Hollandia Binnen. They are detached by Skyline hills that hinder their complete physical merger.  The presence of two separated urban areas in Jayapura City is also reinforced by the image perceived by the residents regarding with the powerful visual image of those cities. It however forms unique and distinctive properties in the spatial structure of Jayapura City. This study examines how the influence of geographical conditions on the spatial structre of Jayapura City. Data collection was done through direct observation and interviews with respondents of Jayapura and Abepura. Direct observation was conducted to obtain data on the use of land that form patterns in Jayapura City area. While collecting data through questionnaires conducted to determine the image of residents of Jayapura City on the spatial structure of the city. The results showed that the geographical conditions in Jayapura City affect the formation of two separate parts of the city.  The geographical condition is also an element forming a strong spatial structure as a characteristic reinforces the visual impression of the existence of two cities in a “single city”.

Abstract

Ocean dynamics is affected by atmospheric conditions. Surface wind is one of atmospheric variables that has an important role in the ocean dynamics. This study was conducted to determine impacts of extreme weather on sea surface temperature in the western waters of Sumatera and the southern waters of Java in June 2016. Daily surface wind (2007-2016), sea surface temperature (1987-2016), sea wave height (1-10 June 2016) and surface current (1994-2016) were analyzed using anomaly analysis to assess the impact of surface winds on surface ocean. The result showed that in June 2016 extreme weather occurred in these waters that was characterized by sea wave height reached 2.6 m. Impacts of extreme weather in these waters cause upwelling intensity weakened that was marked by increase of sea surface temperature. The increases of sea surface temperature in the middle to north of western waters of Sumatera reached 0.9 OC, in the middle to south of western waters of Sumatera reached 1.8 OC and in the southern waters of Java reached 1.6 OC.

Abstract

This research aims at development of Participatory Evacuation Map Making (PEMM) for Kotagede, Yogyakarta – Indonesia. The research area is one of an important cultural heritage sites in Indonesia which is subjected towards earthquake hazard. The preliminary observation revealed that the area is a densely populated area, which characterized by dense wooden building structure, narrow street and minimum information of evacuation route which increase their vulnerability potentials. This leads to the idea of developing the PEMM to improve their awareness and preparedness during disaster events and creates sustainable condition for local livelihood security. The method develops within this research is actually a lesson learn from Ritsumeikan University, that has developed CSR for integration disaster management into heritage sites at Kyoto Prefecture. Their CSR covers several activities such as developing disaster information via vending machine and tourism map. Since Yogyakarta and Kyoto are engaged in “Sister City Development Program”, hereafter Universitas Gadjah Mada tries to do similar thing. Map making is an alternative prior to community experience in map making is rather frequent compare to vending machine habit. The preliminary finding of this research indicates that the Kotagede community has been involved in several map making activity, such as “Green Map” and “Rehabilitation Sites Map”.  However, they have not yet any experience to create any map which includes information such as evacuation route, fire extinguisher, shelter information center and important meeting points. An improved critics from this research is to include meeting points level. As we all aware off, each meeting point have significant carrying capacity, thereby in the future a research on similar topics should add level and or category of meeting points. This is an important steppingstone for the research to conduct further research.

Abstract

Secara umum pemanfaatan ruang dapat diklasifikasikan menjadi dua, yaitu sebagai kawasan budidaya (pertanian maupun non pertanian) dan kawasan non budidaya (lindung, daerah bahaya alam, dsb). Permasalahan yang muncul adalah sebaran kawasan-kawasan tersebut seringkali saling baur (campur), sehingga menambah rumit di dalam pengelolaannya, lebih-lebih pengelolaan dengan sistem pengendalian dan pengawasan yang belum jelas benar wewenangnya atau masih cenderung terlalu mudah untuk diintervensi oleh penguasa (tunggal) daerah dengan kebijakan "mudah diatur".
