Penelitian Pendahuluan Angkutan Sedimen Melayang Sub-Das Citarik Hulu = (Suspended Sediment Transport in the Upper Citarik Sub-River Basin: A Preliminary Study
No full textApart from its function as a soil cover, forest also plays a positive role in preserving water and sediment in a river basin. Rain water which is abundant in the rainy season is caught and stored underground, so that the erosion and flood hazard can be eliminated. In the dry season groundwater becomes reservation to minimize and even eliminate the risk of water shortage. This preliminary study is to monitor suspended sediment transport with respect to the forest area of upper Citarum River Basin at upper Citarih Sub - River Basin. On the basis of the preliminary study results, it can be said that for a river basin where percentage of the forest area is smaller (i) the suspended sediment concentration is higher and (ii) the total sediment per area unit is greater. These indications were found during the study period, from September 1987 to February 1988. The preliminary study was conducted in a sub-river basin where the soil type is a mixture of andosol and brown regosol, and the terrain is undulating, hilly to mountainous with slope more than 15 percent
Penggunaan "USEMAP" Untuk Analisis Perubahan Bentuk Penggunaan Lahan = The Use of USEMAP for Landuse Change Analysis
No full textCurrent information of landuse and landuse type change within a certain period of time is chiefly needed in a landuse planning. The information of landuse type change is obtainable through overlapping landuse maps of one period. However, the common problem is inavailability of the latest maps, especially those of the areas where the landuse change is rapid. The aerial photographs and remote sensing image can be used to solve the problem. Nevertheless, another problem which is not less important is the need for rapid analysis with high accuracy. For this purpose, computer well-known as Geographical Information System (GIS) is used . One of the GIS components is software, while USEMAP is one of the various hinds of software. The use of USEMAP for landuse change analysis is very effective, especially for the quantitative one. However, USEMAP has some shortcoming, namely this can only be used to analyze seven landuse types
Memantau Toponimi Dan Permasalahannya Di Indonesia
No full textPublications on toponimy in Indonesia are still small in number. The term toponimy has not been widely known by the .society, although the problems that can be observed are among others: inaccuracy in providing geographical names, change in spelling, a great number of local languages, change in names in foreign languages into Indonesian, all of which have given rise to various difficulties, obstacles or confusion in identifying geographical features.

Sebuah Pandangan Mengenai Mater! Pelajaran Geografi Di Pra-Perguruan Tinggi = An idea on Geography Subject at the Pre-University
No full textEducation of geography for SLTA students (secondary school) is aimed at teaching students to behave as members of a modern Indonesian society with self-confidence and capable of solving a variety of daily-life problems both at pesent and in the .future. Some problems which arise in the Indonesian society are both of a social and physical nature. For that reason, attention should be paid to these problems in the reaching and learning materials for the SLTA, especially during the geography lessons. Moreover, geography based on the study of social and physical phenomena on a national and international level, should widen the scope of perception of the students. Concerning the criteria for lesson materials, on the one hand the geography subject should comply with the SLTA. curriculum and on the other hand, the physical and human aspects of the subject should reflect daily life realities. The materials should be taught as a whole package, not as separated fragments of physical and human aspects, to satisfy the geographical paradigm. Another aspect which should be given due consideration, is the continuation of the geography education from nursery school up to the university, with the teaching materials adjusted to the respective school levels. A well-designed balance of geography education in the school curricula and lesson materials is thought to intensify logical deductive thinking and stimulates character development of the students. It is therefore the right moment for geography teachers to reconsider the geography education in the SLTA curriculum, to improve the teaching package whenever necessary and publish books on geography topics
