Abstract
This paper proposed a simple method and rapid to carry out for organizing city phytostructure. Carbon dioxide sequestration was addressed and referred to population number instead of city area. The unit storage of carbon dioxide, which was nothing less than greenspace area, was determined using equivalent method of determining unit storage of water. For various population number (P) of city area in Indonesia, the greenspace unit (GU) was 29P-0.3-3.2, and the greenspace area (GA) was 29P 0.7-3.2P. Greenspace distribution was preferably on wetlands, river lines, top ground level, and north south direction.

Planning for Urban Green Area and Its Importance for Sustainability: The Case of Jakarta
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science
Population growth and rapid development in Jakarta have caused a reduction in the amount of Green Open Space (GOS) in urban areas. Based on data in 2017, the public GOS managed by the Forestry Agency is only 4.65% and the private GOS can not be counted until now. Although the target of public GOS achievement is 20%, but the green plan is only 7,514.08 ha. The aim of this study is to analyze the extent and distribution of GOS and compare it with green plan. This study used the method of Geographic Information Systems to determine the extent and distribution by comparing the GOS area in year 2011 and 2018.

Ecological function of green open space as water infiltration: study in kalijodo green open space, north jakarta
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019
Kalijodo Green Open Space is a green open space set by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government in 2017. Related to the ecological function of green open space as water infiltration, a literature study was conducted to analyze the condition of Kalijodo green open space based on supporting data sources using descriptive analysis techniques. The results of the analysis show that the Kalijodo green open space has not been able to carry out ecological functions as well as water absorption. Based on the imagery in Google Earth, it is seen that Kalijodo’s green open space is very minimal vegetation and looks barren. This condition has implications for hardening the soil, so that water is difficult to seep into the soil. In the last 5 years, the average rainfall intensity from October 2013 to March 2014 was 134.97 mmph and was a very high level of rainfall intensity. Green open space is included in flood-prone areas. With the condition of the Kalijodo green open space and the high intensity o...
Changes in Land Requirements Analysis for Green Space Needed in Bogor City
International Journal on Advanced Science, Engineering and Information Technology
Bogor City is one of the cities with declining air quality, which increases the risk of air pollution in the city. Improving the air quality requires the addition of vegetation as a green space that can be supported by remote sensing analysis using Google Earth Engine to know the availability of vegetation area in Bogor City. This process takes the median value of Landsat 8 Oli's satellite imagery data for 60 to 91 days of each year and classified by Random Forest Classification and supported by BPS-Statistic of Bogor Municipality data for the number of oxygen users of Bogor City that calculated by the Gerarkis Method to observe the needs of oxygen in Bogor City. The results contain a prediction of the addition of green spaces area needed in Bogor City based on the difference between the Gerarkis Method results and the availability of vegetation area in Bogor City each year. The results show an increased number from 2013 to 2019 because of the increased number of oxygen users each year. The highest number in 2019 shows that Bogor City needs 4,639 Hectares or 40.59% more green spaces area, while the lowest number happened in 2013 with 281.31 Hectares or 2.46% more green spaces area needed. This research could help the growth of development in Bogor City to be balanced between oxygen needs by the public user and urban planning plans.
Plants Potential of Green and Open Space Planning (RTH) to Mitigate CO2 Gas Emission in Ambon
Biotropika: Journal of Tropical Biology, 2021
The urbanization rate may give an adverse effect on a city. For example, it accrues the number of urban dwellers and induces the exploitation of land resources with a quick conversion rate, which leads to the degradation of the quality of the environment. This condition is exacerbated by deescalated green and open spaces (RTH) as a CO2 absorber. CO2 emissions in urban regions can be mitigated by exerting trees, which have a pivotal role in carbon uptake. This research imparts an analysis of plant species that are potential for absorbing carbon and storing biomass in green and open spaces in Ambon. The research method is quantitative by estimating biomass and carbon uptake of trees. Results indicate that trembesi (Samanea saman), linggua (Pterocarpus indicus), mahoni (Swietenia macrophylla), bintanggur (Calophyllum inophyllum), and kerai payung (Filicium decipiens) are typical trees planted in Ambon. The highest CO2 uptake capacity (B = 110.95 tons/ha, CO2 = 191.38 tons/ha) is identified in Trembesi (Samanea Saman), linggua (Pterocarpus indicus), the second-highest with a B = 61.66 tons/ha and CO2 = 106.36 tons/ha, and Akasia (Acacia mangium), the third-highest with a B = 25.24 tons/ha and CO2 = 41.69 tons/ha.

Based on the results of the study showed that in 2016 the Serang ci...
Effect of vegetation and waterbody on the garden city concept: An evaluation study using a newly developed city, Putrajaya, Malaysia
The garden city concept was adopted in the development of a new tropical city, Putrajaya, aimed at mitigating the effect of urban thermal modification associated with urbanisation, such as urban heat island (UHI). WRF/Noah/ UCM coupled system was used to estimate the urban environment over the area and the individual thermal contributions of natural land use classes (vegetation and waterbody). A control experiment including all land use types describing the urban conditions of Putrajaya city agreed well with the observations in the region. A series of experiments was then conducted, in which vegetation and waterbody were successively replaced with an urban land use type, providing the basis for an assessment of their respective effect on urban thermal mitigation. Surface energy components, 2-m air temperature (T2m) and mixing ratio (Q2m), relative humidity (RH) and UHI intensity (UHII) showed variations for each land use class. Overall, an increase in urban surfaces caused a corresponding increase in the thermal conditions of the city. Conversely, waterbody and vegetation induced a daily reduction of 0.14 and 0.39 °C of T2m, respectively. RH, UHI and T2m also showed variations with urban fractions. A thermal reduction effect of vegetation is visible during mornings and nights, while that of water is minimally shown during daytime. However, during nights and mornings, canopy layer thermal conditions above waterbody remain relatively high, with a rather undesirable effect on the surrounding microclimate, because of its high heat capacity and thermal inertia.

Carbon pool analysis of urban parks (Chh. Sambhaji Garden and Chittaranjan Vatika, Pune).
Journal of Basic sciences Vol. 1(1): 20-27, 2015
Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration has been increasing progressively for last two centuries resulting in climate change. There are two alternatives to reduce CO2; one is to decrease carbon emissions and second is to increase carbon sink. Therefore, this study is going to focus on carbon pool, specifically in terms of urban parks vegetation. As we know, urban trees can help to mitigate climate change by sequestering atmospheric carbon. Thus, the need of the hour is to probe ways and means of managing the levels of GHGs in the atmosphere. Urban parks and gardens are considered as lungs of the cities & have the ability to remove significant amounts of air pollutants, therefore improving environmental quality (Nowak et.al, 2006) & providing a wide variety of ecological services. Development of sustainable green cities in the near future is the prior and important need of today’s fast urbanizing world. In this study, GPS Instrument and GIS-Arc view 9.3 to 10.1, - a recent software of Geographic Information System (GIS) were used as measuring the urban forest is one of the first steps toward understanding this resource and developing appropriate management plans. The inventory process yields baseline reports that serve as benchmarks on which future changes in C pool size would be calculated. In both the gardens, it ids found that Indigenous plant species even though present in less number sequester more carbon-dioxide.
Developing a Sustainable City in a Tropical Area to Create a Balance between Vegetation and Water Bodies
International Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2015
This paper aims to investigate the effects of using natural resources that incorporates the basis of a sustainable city design in efforts to improve the urban thermal comfort in a hot and humid climate. Currently, one of the most crucial world environmental issues is urbanization in a hot and humid climate. In tropical areas, if the urban landscape is poorly designed, it will cause outdoor thermal discomfort. Natural plants and water bodies in the hot and humid landscape has a direct influence over the temperature of urban cities. Water bodies, for example, are able to lower the atmospheric temperature; whereas plants also can affect the surroundings passively. The effects of wet surfaces are increased if there is a presence of a shadow. Therefore, vegetation and water bodies are used in designing a sustainable city in order to increase the quality of outdoor thermal comfort in a hot and humid climate. This is hoped to provide a better and more comfortable human living environment.

A Preliminary Study on the Impact of Landscape Pattern Changes Due to Urbanization: Case Study of Jakarta, Indonesia
Land
Urbanization is changing land use–land cover (LULC) transforming green spaces (GS) and bodies of water into built-up areas. LULC change is affecting ecosystem services (ES) in urban areas, such as by decreasing of the water retention capacity, the urban temperature regulation capacity and the carbon sequestration. The relation between LULC change and ES is still poorly examined and quantified using actual field data. In most ES studies, GS is perceived as lumped areas instead of distributed areas, implicitly ignoring landscape patterns (LP), such as connectivity and aggregation. This preliminary study is one of the first to provide quantitative evidence of the influence of landscape pattern changes on a selection of urban ecosystem services in a megacity as Jakarta, Indonesia. The impact of urbanization on the spatiotemporal changes of ES has been identified by considering connectivity and aggregation of GS. It reveals that LP changes have significantly decreased carbon sequestratio...
