The Effect of Using Biopore on Flood Reduction in District of Besuki, Tulungagung Regency
Get PDFThe District of Besuki is one of the regions in Tulungagung Regency which has karst morphology. The high quantity of rainfall and unpredictable weather in the karst area can increase the risk of natural disasters such as floods and landslides. The technology of making biopore infiltration holes can be used as one of the solutions in flood disaster mitigation efforts. These infiltration holes generally used in dense areas of settlements or regions that have minimal water catchment areas. This study aims to determine the use of biopore to prevent flood in Gambiran, Besole Village, district of Besuki, Tulungagung Regency. This type of research is an experiment. The measure water absorption was utilizing a variety of tools such as double-ring infiltrometer, stopwatch, special ruler measuring the water speed. The results showed that the use of biopore is effective in reducing the impact of flooding in karst topographic areas, especially in Gambiran Hamlet, Besole Village, Besuki district, Tulungagung Regency. This was proven by experiments conducted by making comparisons between treated soils with biopore infiltration holes and soils without any treatment. During one month, with four times the treatment of water absorption can increase more than doubled. If the point without treatment is only able to absorb water as deep as 23 cm / 30 minutes or an average of 0.7 cm/minute, then the treatment point can absorb water as deep as 57cm / 30 minutes or with an average value of 1.9 / minute. With the increasing absorption of groundwater, the use of biopore infiltration holes can reduce the impact of flooding in karst areas, especially in Gambiran Village Besole Village Besuki District Besuki Tulungagung Regency
Identification of Coastal Waste in Pariaman City
Get PDFMarine Debris is a collection of solid materials left behind that intentionally or unintentionally in the sea that have an impact on threatening the sustainability and sustainability of marine ecosystems. This research is a study of identifying marine waste that is on the coast of Kota Pariaman. This study aims to identify marine waste by type and size. The collection of marine waste is carried out in a transect that is stretched to follow the coastline at the lowest tide with a distance of 100 m divided by 20 m each, each 20m each 5m x 5m each (5 meters towards the sea, 5 meters landward). Classification of waste using an LCS or litter classification system. LCS is a marine waste type coding system. This system is used for sampling carried out in its original place and immediately measures the weight and amount of waste. The method used to determine the transect is by utilizing the Geographic Information System (GIS) technology using a quantitative approach. The GIS technology can to geographically collect, manage, manipulate and visualize spatial (spatial) data related to the position of the earth's surface on the map according to the actual position of the earth's surface with coordinates. The results showed that in the coastal city of Pariaman dominated by the basket flakes with 2.67 gr (garbage Meso) or 1.52 types of garbage/m2 and 77.01 gr of beverage bottles (macro) or 0.80 type of garbage/m2
Review of Urbanization Models and its Implication to Reduce Urban Poverty
Get PDFUrbanization in nature has two meanings. Firstly, it means migrating people from rural to urban. Second, it means transforming rural area to urban area. Those meanings have two implications for the population as well. The people who migrate from rural to the urban area tend to make the change voluntarily. They want to change their life better than when they lived in rural. On the other hand, the villagers forced by the situation being too urban tend to be apathetic and they are very difficult to adapt and to change so that they are finally forced to change. This paper aims to explain how urbanization happened in Indonesia and its implication on urban poverty. This study depends on investigating literature and media review. We argue that voluntarily urbanization may lead to the new formation of the urban periphery. This will bring economic and social consequences such as land acquisition, job opportunity and urban poverty. Further, the study indicated that under voluntary urbanization, social and economic pressure were more likely to attach to the indigenous community compared to forced urbanization. The study showed that programs on poverty alleviation need to consider the nature of urbanization. Finally, this paper suggests conducting an empirical study related to urban poverty caused by two types of urbanization
Socio-Environmental Survey and Sustainable Management Planning of a Forest Hamlet Proximate to Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary in the Eastern Himalayas, India
Get PDFThe Himalayas have significant impact on the climate and biodiversity of the Indian Subcontinent. Many hamlets are situated in the Eastern Himalayas and some of them are proximate to the forest areas. Latpanchar (26.7083 N, 88.4268 E) is one of the emerging tourist destinations of the Eastern Himalayas, situated at an altitude of 4200 feet, nestled on the highest part of Mahananda wildlife sanctuary. Latpanchar being home to over 200 diverse varieties of bird species including Rufous Necked Hornbill is a very attractive destination for bird watchers. As a result, the hamlet has developed as an attractive ecotourism destination. Most of the inhabitants of the village are associated with Latpanchar Cinchona Plantation, which was established in 1943. The present study focuses on the physical and cultural environment of the forest and mountain areas in Latpanchar. The survey work integrates the perspectives of social ecology, ecosystem services and sustainable development. Primary data were collected using a mixed-methods approach, collecting background baseline information, scheduling interviews with members of the local villages and field observations. Focus was given on demography, agriculture, livestock management, water management, education, health, waste management, disaster management, biodiversity, ecosystem services, conservation initiatives and human animal conflict. Photographic documentation accompanied every phase of the survey. Policy proposals for sustainable development of the hamlet were discussed for conserving the biodiversity and socio-environmental condition of the village. Extensive study is needed in other mountain areas of the Eastern Himalayas to explore the socio-ecological conditions in the context of climate change

Spatial Model of COVID 19 Distribution Based on Differences an Climate Characteristics and Environment of According to the Earth Latitude
Get PDFThe purpose of this research is to analyze the spread of COVID-19 on the earth's surface. The method used is a spatial method with the Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis technique. The results of this study explain that the spread of COVID-19 very much occurs in the region of moderate latitude. Besides, tropical climate conditions can also make the virus more quickly become unstable. The Coronavirus spreads faster in countries with high latitudes and humid climates. The spread and concentration of the COVID-19 virus increasingly to the poles are easier to develop, current conditions at high latitudes or poles are not significantly affected due to a small population concentration and population activity, so the virus cannot spread, because the body's virus does not find a host (human) to live and develop
