Impact of Excessive Groundwater Pumping on Rejuvenation Processes in the Bandung Basin (Indonesia) As Determined by Hydrogeochemistry and Modeling Hydrogeology Journal https://doi.org/10.1007/s10040-017-1696-8 REPORT Impact of excessive groundwater pumping on rejuvenation processes in the Bandung basin (Indonesia) as determined by hydrogeochemistry and modeling Ahmad Taufiq1,2,3 & Takahiro Hosono1,4 & Kiyoshi Ide1 & Makoto Kagabu5 & Irwan Iskandar6 & Agus J. Effendi7 & Lambok M. Hutasoit2 & Jun Shimada 1 Received: 22 March 2017 /Accepted: 15 November 2017 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract In the Bandung basin, Indonesia, excessive groundwater pumping caused by rapid increases in industrialization and population growth has caused subsurface environmental problems, such as excessive groundwater drawdown and land subsidence. In this study, multiple hydrogeochemical techniques and numerical modeling have been applied to evaluate the recharge processes and groundwater age (rejuvenation). Although all the groundwater in the Bandung basin is recharged at the same elevation at the periphery of the basin, the water type and residence time of the shallow and deep groundwater could be clearly differentiated. However, there was significant groundwater drawdown in all the depression areas and there is evidence of groundwater mixing between the shallow and deep groundwater. The groundwater mixing was traced from the high dichlorodifluoromethane (CFC- 12) concentrations in some deep groundwater samples and by estimating the rejuvenation ratio (R) in some representative observation wells. The magnitude of CFC-12 concentration, as an indicator of young groundwater, showed a good correlation with R,determinedusing14C activity in samples taken between 2008 and 2012. These correlations were confirmed with the estimation of vertical downward flux from shallower to deeper aquifers using numerical modeling. Furthermore, the change in vertical flux is affected by the change in groundwater pumping. Since the 1970s, the vertical flux increased significantly and reached approximately 15% of the total pumping amount during the 2000s, as it compensated the groundwater pumping. This study clearly revealed the processes of groundwater impact caused by excessive groundwater pumping using a combination of hydrogeochemical methods and modeling. Keywords Over-abstraction .

  • Urban Tourism Development for Bandung City, Indonesia: a Preliminary Study
    International Journal of Business and Society, Vol. 19 No.1, 2018, 73-86 URBAN TOURISM DEVELOPMENT FOR BANDUNG CITY, INDONESIA: A PRELIMINARY STUDY Pri Hermawan Institut Teknologi Bandung Rikantini Widiyanti. Institut Teknologi Bandung Lidia Mayangsari Institut Teknologi Bandung Santi Novani Institut Teknologi Bandung ABSTRACT Tourism is undergoing fundamental changes regarding the market, industry structure, and the product or services offered. Motivations and preferences in experiencing a destination have been proliferating in number and range, thereby challenging conventional models of tourism management and planning. Likewise, cities as the key destinations of urban tourism are also constantly changing which intensifies the links between the tourism industry and the urban dynamics. The fundamental concern is understanding tourist motivation and preferences as the input of city features improvement process to actualize an ideal urban tourism symmetrical from bottom- up to top-down interests. The shifting phenomenon to urban tourism as well takes effect in Bandung city. Modernization has an evolutionary effect on tourism activities from cultural-historical tourism towards a more consumptive pattern such as shopping-culinary activities. Thus, this preliminary study employs factor analysis method to explore the variable relationships reasoning the complexity of experience emerged from tourists while visiting a destination. The factor analysis discovers a finding that multiple observed variables have similar patterns of responses in the light of Bandung city tourism: social expression and interactive learning. In addition, this study also applies cluster analysis to strengthen the segmenting of each city feature reflecting to the characteristics of the tourists. It is confirmed that there are five classification of tourist visiting Bandung city: unexplored, light, minded, socialist, updated.

Raya ITS, Keputih, Kec. Sukolilo, Kota SBY, JawaTimur 60111 Abstract.The vulnerability of land in an area to earthquake ground motions is one of the factors causing damage caused by the earthquakes. The city of Surabaya, which is crossed by two active fault segments, needs an assessment to reduce the risk of being affected by an earthquake that might occur. The aims of this study are (1) to find out the distribution of Seismic Site Classes, (20 to know the distribution of the value of Seismic Amplification, and (3) to know the potential of liquefaction in the city of Surabaya. Surabaya city, which is geologically dominated by alluvium deposits, consists of soft soil (SE) and medium (SD) sites based on N-SPT30 and Vs30 data. The level of soil amplification against earthquakes ranging from 1 to 4. This occurs because the physical properties of the Surabaya City soil layer are dominated by alluvium deposits. Regions with more than 2 amplification values are located around the coastline on the North and East coasts of Surabaya City. Based on the potential liquefaction index value, Surabaya City is included in the region with a high potential for liquefaction with a potential liquefaction index value of more than 5. 1 Introduction The National Earthquake Study Center found that the location of Surabaya is geographically Surabaya is the second largest city in Indonesia, located on a fault, which is estimated to be still which has an area of 33,048 ha, of which 60.17% of active and is presumably one day likely to cause a the area is in the form of built-in areas and the large earthquake in Surabaya.
