Estimated loss of soil erosion is often difficult due to some factors such as topography, land use, climate and human activities. This study aims to predict soil erosion hazard and sediment yield using the Soil and Water Assessment Tools (SWAT) hydrological model. The SWAT was chosen because it can simulate the model with limited data. The study area is Komering watershed (806,001 Ha) in South Sumatera Province. There are two factors land management intervention: 1) land with agriculture, and 2) land with cultivation. These factors selected in accordance with the regulations of spatial plan area. Application of the SWAT demonstrated that the model can predict surface runoff, soil erosion loss and sediment yield. The erosion risk for each watershed can be classified and predicted its changes based on the scenarios which arranged. In this paper, we also discussed the relationship between the distribution of erosion risk and watershed's characteristics in a spatial perspective.

Untuk keperluan itu telah dibangun tujuh stasiun pengamatan yang dikarakteristikkan dengan tutupan lahan yang berbeda. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan, bahwa tutupan vegetasi bawah berupa rumput dan semak pada penggunaan lahan hutan kota di Kampus Universitas Indonesia memainkan peranan penting sebagai faktor pengontrol pembentukan aliran permukaan dan bawah tanah, terutama signifi kan selama kejadian-kejadian hujan konvektif. Proporsi air hujan lolos pada lokasi tersebut, yang menghasilkan aliran permukaan dan bawah tanah, bervariasi antara 5,3-7,2%. Sementara pada lokasi pengamatan tanpa vegetasi bawah dan lapisan seresah dihasilkan angka proporsi aliran sebesar 12,5-18,9%. Tingginya proporsi aliran permukaan pada lokasi bervegetasi bawah selama bulan Desember-Februari diduga akibat meningkatnya kejenuhan dan muka air tanah, yang selanjutnya menghasilkan aliran permukaan yang meluas (widespread saturation overland fl ow). Secara keseluruhan diperlihatkan korelasi positif yang linear antara air hujan lolos dengan volume aliran permukaan pada lokasi tanpa vegetasi bawah dan lapisan seresah. Pengaruh faktor kelembaban tanah terhadap tingginya aliran permukaan yang terjadi terlihat secara nyata pada lokasi dengan vegetasi bawah dan pertanian tanah kering dan ini terutama signifi kan pada kejadian-kejadian dengan air hujan lolos >40 mm. Abstract Hydrological Study on the urban forest in Campus Area of the Indonesia University, Depok during September 2000 – February 2001 hydrological measurement of urban forest in Campus Area of the Indonesia University, Depok were carried out to identify the effect of land cover on the runoff generation processes. Seven observation station which are characteristised by differenced land cover were build to measure overland and sub surface fl ow. The result of data analysis showed that the grass and litter cover in urban forest fl oor played an important role as a control factor of overland fl ow and throughfl ow production, especially signifi cant during the convective rains. During this events the proportion of throughfall on this area which produced overland fl ow, varied between 5,3-7,2%, while on the area without the grass and litter cover, its about 12,5-18,9%. During December–February the overland fl ow was very high. This is probably closely related to the existence of the widespread saturation overland fl ow. Generally it was shown a very close relationship between throughfall and overlandfl ow on the area without the grass and litter cover. The effect of antecedent precipitation index on the overland and throughfl ow production was identifi ed on the location with grass cover and cultivated area and particularly signifi cant on the events with throughfall >40 mm. Keywords: Overland fl ow, saturation overland fl ow, subsurface fl ow, through fall, antecedent precipitation index

Application of remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) technology can support it's information continuously and accurate. In this study, we attempted to identify the rice planting season during El Nino years of 1997, 2006 and 2015 in the Pringsewu district, Lampung and we compared with meteorological drought index. Spatial information of the RPS obtained through Interpretation of multitemporal Landsat data aquired in 1997, 2006 and 2015 using normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and the humidity index. While standardized precipitation index (SPI) is used as a indicator of meteorological drought. This study has shown that the application of remote sensing and GIS could accurately monitor the rice planting season during the periods of El Nino in 1997, 2006 and 2015. The fallow land dominated during the El Nino years and there were no significant difference between years. While drought information based on SPI values showed different results between years of El Nino events. In this paper we also discussed the relationship between distribution of fallow land and meteorological drought in a spatial perspective.

A survey of the water needs (agriculture and domestic purpose), supply situation (source of water, water discharge and water quality) and issues related to water as perceived by local farmers and community leaders was carried out in both watersheds. Our results show that the availability of water resources in the two watersheds at this time is sufficient for domestic and agricultural needs. Unfortunately, a lot of water available in the study areas was not found in good quality.This occurred especially in the water sources in the Sekular watershed. Efforts have been made by people in the two watersheds for water supply sustainability as reviewed in this paper.

This ecosystem and environmental degradation is due to significant deforestation and land conversion in upstream and central areas. Land conversion which led to erosion in the upstream and sedimentation in the downstream causing changes in river channel. This study aims to analyze the deformation (morphodynamics) of river channel of Komering River in 1990, 1997, 2000, 2010 and 2013. The occurred changes are identified using satellite image interpretation and calculation from sinuosity index based on changes in river channel. Satellite image data are obtained from multitemporal Landsat images to identify changes in the river channel, while sinuosity index is used as an indicator of changes in the river channel. The results of this study showed that during 26 years period (1990-2016), the channel of Komering River changes in eleven locations. There are five locations that indicate tendencies to be straight and six locations show tendencies to get curved. This conclusion is based on the calculation of the sinuosity index value due to changes in land cover.

The rational method is developed mainly for estimating the characteristics of drainage infrastructure instead of estimating water availability. The effectiveness of rational method and Soil-Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) method are compared by testing their performance in estimating water availability in the Upper Cisadane river basin in West Java, Indonesia. The results shows that calibrated SCS-CN model performs better than Rational model with R2 and NSE of 0,62 and 0,37. Result of model validation yields R2 = 0,73 and NSE = 0,52. The result suggests that SCS-CN performs better than the rational model in simulating the character of water catchment area and is suitable for model of choice in water availability estimation.

Industrial growth affects the increasing demand for electricity in various places, this also occurs on the island of Bangka. So far, electricity supply has only been obtained from fossil fuel power plants with inadequate capacity, unstable flow and depending on fuel supplies from outside the island. For this reason, it is necessary to build a Nuclear Power Plant (PLTN) which is believed to be reliable and able to overcome these problems. In order to prepare a safe and economical nuclear power plant site, influential parameters such as population density, cooling system, land clearing, cut and fill, and granite for the foundation have been analyzed. The novelty of this analysis lies in 2 methods which gradually used before come up with a final decision, namely spatial analysis and pairwise comparison using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), respectively. The sco...

Water demand in Bintan is increasing due to both population and economic growth. This paper aims to determine the spatial and temporal rainfall variability over Bintan Island using the daily corrected-CHIRPS (Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data) version two (v2.0) dataset to a ground-based observation dataset (Kijang station) using quantile-base bias correction for period 1 January 1981–31 August 2018. For the analysis process, we used monthly corrected-CHIRPS, NINO 3.4 anomaly index, the DMI (dipole mode index), zonal and meridional wind, and specific humidity from January 1981 to December 2017. Semi-annual, annual, and interannual variations influence monthly rainfall amounts over the island. Two peaks representing equatorial and monsoonal patterns characterize the temporal variability of rainfall. Spatially, the southern part of the island receives more rainfall than the northern part especially in MAM and SON related to the more convergence of moisture. The effects of interannual variation, ENSO (El Niño-Southern Oscillation) and IOD (Indian Ocean dipole), vary with season. ENSO contributes more to rainfall variability than IOD during the period of study.
