Seismic Hazard Microzonation of Bengkulu City, Indonesia Lindung Zalbuin Mase1*, Nanang Sugianto2 and Refrizon2 Mase et al. Geoenvironmental Disasters (2021) 8:5 Geoenvironmental Disasters https://doi.org/10.1186/s40677-021-00178-y RESEARCH Open Access Seismic hazard microzonation of Bengkulu City, Indonesia Lindung Zalbuin Mase1*, Nanang Sugianto2 and Refrizon2 Abstract It has been known that Bengkulu City (Indonesia) is vulnerable to undergo seismic damage. This study is initiated by measuring horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (H/V) to sites in Bengkulu City using microtremor. The inversion analysis is performed to generate shear wave velocity profile. Hundreds of sites are investigated in this study. The results show that observed H/V is consistent with the theoretical H/V. National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program code is adopted to classify the site class. The results also exhibit that Bengkulu City is dominated by Site Classes C and D. In general, this study could lead local government to consider seismic hazard mitigation for spatial plan.

Terminal ini jika dilihat Redesain dari segi standar Terminal Tipe B pada umumnya yang telah ditetapkan oleh Terminal Kementrian Perhubungan sangat jauh dari standar tersebut, baik dari segi luasan Green architecture lahan maupun dari segi fasilitas yang dimiliki. Hal ini terjadi dikarenakan dari awal gedung ini didesain memang bukan untuk terminal penumpang sehingga banyak terdapat kekurangan. Rencana redesain ini ditujukan untuk mendesain ulang terminal Tipe Kota Banda Aceh agar sesuai dengan standar yang telah ditetapkan oleh Kementrian Perhubungan, karna umumnya di Indonesia pengguna moda transportasi darat dan menggunakan kendaraan umum masih menjadi pilihan yang paling banyak digunakan. Oleh sebab itu memperbaiki prasarana kota yang ada (terminal) demi kenyamanan pengguna merupakan hal penting yang harus dilakukan.

    Marjaana Jauhola Marjaana craps of Hope in Banda Aceh examines the rebuilding of the city Marjaana Jauhola of Banda Aceh in Indonesia in the aftermath of the celebrated SHelsinki-based peace mediation process, thirty years of armed conflict, and the tsunami. Offering a critical contribution to the study of post-conflict politics, the book includes 14 documentary videos Scraps of Hope reflecting individuals’ experiences on rebuilding the city and following the everyday lives of people in Banda Aceh. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh Banda in Hope of Scraps in Banda Aceh Marjaana Jauhola mirrors the peace-making process from the perspective of the ‘outcast’ and invisible, challenging the selective narrative and ideals of the peace as a success story. Jauhola provides Gendered Urban Politics alternative ways to reflect the peace dialogue using ethnographic and in the Aceh Peace Process film documentarist storytelling. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh tells a story of layered exiles and displacement, revealing hidden narratives of violence and grief while exposing struggles over gendered expectations of being good and respectable women and men. It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace. Marjaana Jauhola is senior lecturer and head of discipline of Global Development Studies at the University of Helsinki. Her research focuses on co-creative research methodologies, urban and visual ethnography with an eye on feminisms, as well as global politics of conflict and disaster recovery in South and Southeast Asia.

  • Rapid Disaster Risk Assessment of Coastal Communities: a Case Study of Mutiara Village, Banda Aceh, Indonesia1
    Rapid Disaster Risk Assessment of Coastal Communities: A Case Study of Mutiara Village, Banda Aceh, Indonesia1 Shesh Kanta Kafle2 Disaster Risk Reduction Delegate Canadian Red Cross, Tsunami Recovery Operations Banda Aceh, Indonesia; Email: [email protected] Cell: 08126991283 ABSTRACT A rapid disaster risk assessment was carried out to identify major hazards, assess vulnerabilities and analyze risks of future disasters and recommend key mitigating measures to make prospective communities in Mutiara village resilient to disasters. This paper is prepared based on a rapid reconnaissance survey of the area where Canadian Red Cross (CRC) is planning to build houses for December 2004 tsunami-affected people. Data were collected both from primary sources in consultation with the people residing nearby resettlement area and local leaders, and secondary sources. For the analysis of the hazard and vulnerability of the prospective communities, the crunch and release models were used. Risk analysis was done using risk matrix. The study revealed that earthquake, tsunami, flooding, inundation, river cutting, cyclone, climate change and epidemics were the major natural hazards in the locality. Vulnerability analysis showed that this area had a very high damage potential to tsunami and flooding. Risk assessment based on the hazard potential and vulnerability analysis shows that the area falls within the very high risk zone. However, since no alternatives are available for the resettlement of the December 2004 tsunami- affected people and their strong willingness to stay in the same area due to other socio-economic and cultural reasons; it is strongly advised that risk mitigating measures are employed together with the permanent shelter and other development initiatives.
