ANALISIS MITIGASI KONFLIK GAJAH SUMATRA (Elephas maximus sumatranus, Temmick 1874) DI TAMAN NASIONAL BUKIT BARISAN SELATAN
The conflict between elephants and humans occurs because elephants' habitat is undergoing land conversion to community plants that elephants like. Which causes elephants to enter estate plantations and settlements at night especially when the community's crops are ready to be harvested. This study was conducted to analyze conflict mitigation of elephants and human in Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park. Data was collected by interview survey to the national park officials, conservation partners and affected communities, then this data was analyzed using descriptive analysis. The research was conducted from April to June 2021 at Pemerihan Resort Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park. The results showed that the mitigation carried out by officials, conservation partners and the community was quite effective in driving elephants away from plantations and settlements in the short term. Conflict mitigation is carried out by installing a GPS Collar to monitor the movement of Sumatran elephants so that when the wild elephants approach plantations and settlements, expulsion can be carried out immediately using firecrackers. This mitigation was chosen because it did not injure the elephants. Planting plants that do not like elephants can be done to reduce the occurrence of conflict, in addition to monitoring and further research related to conflict, mitigation needs to be done in order to determine its effectiveness
FOREST COVER CHANGE DETECTION IN PAKTIA PROVINCE OF AFGHANISTAN USING REMOTE SENSING AND GIS: 1998-2018
Monitoring changes in forest cover is important to address issues like biodiversity conservation, sustainable management, and climate change. The study has been conducted in the Paktia province of Afghanistan to assess the changes in different forest classes which occurred together with political changes by using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS). The change was analyzed for a period of two decades, i.e., 1998 to 2018. Landsat TM and OLI satellite images of 30m resolution for the years 1998 and 2018 were used respectively. The overall classification accuracy of the mapping was estimated as 82.67% and the kappa coefficient was estimated as 0.8081. The study area was delineated via visual image interpretation technique into 11 LULC classes’ viz., closed forest, open forest, forest scrub, grassland other classes (Agriculture, Agroforestry, horticulture, habitation, waterbody, wasteland, and snow). The comparison of maps 1998 and 2018 revealed that the total area under closed forest, open forest, showed an increase of 0.43%, 0.73%, respectively. While the areas under forest scrub, showed a decline of 0.30%, during the study period (1998-2018)
ANALISIS KONFLIK MANUSIA DENGAN GAJAH DI SEKITAR RESORT PEMERIHAN TAMAN NASIONAL BUKIT BARISAN SELATAN BERDASARKAN PERSEPSI MASYARAKAT KECAMATAN BENGKUNAT KABUPATEN PESISIR BARAT
Human-elephant conflict occurs due to the release of elephants from forest areas and into human settlements so that there is no balance between human and elephant welfare. This research was conducted to determine how people's perceptions of human-elephant conflict that occurred around the Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park forest area during October 2020-November 2020. Structured interviews were collected for data collection, 45 respondents were selected by purposive sampling based on the slovin formula. Data analysis was performed using a Likert scale. The results showed that most of the community agreed with the indicator if human-elephant conflict was detrimental to humans (4.75) and reduced the community's economy (4.6). The conflict between humans and elephants creates negative perceptions of the community towards elephants, which are animals that eat and destroy plants. However, the community still has an awareness of the preservation of elephants so that they have a positive perception of elephants in the form of animals that need to be protected and can be used as tourist objects. The community will carry out a blockade and blockade if the elephants will enter the residential area to suppress the amount of conflict that occurs.
