Assessment of Climate Change Impacts Using Hydrological Drought Index 3rd World Irrigation Forum (WIF3) International Workshop 1-7 September 2019, Bali, Indonesia CLIMATE.02 ASSESSMENT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS USING HYDROLOGICAL DROUGHT INDEX Levina1, Brigita Diaz2 and Waluyo Hatmoko3 ABSTRACT Climate change is altering the characteristics of rainfall and consequently also the river flow. It is important to asses climate change impact on drought, especially hydrological drought in river flow. This paper proposes to quantify climate change impact using hydrological drought index, from the available flow data. Climate change impact on rainfall in the future is projected using the worst scenario Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 8.5 that leading in the long term to high energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions in the absence of climate change policies, as mentioned in the latest IPCC report AR 5. The monthly rainfall is projected until the year of 2045 using ensemble of seven models commonly used by Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics which is statistical-bias corrected by quantile mapping with observation data. Projected river discharge is calculated using an empirical equation between changes in discharge with potential evaporation and rainfall. A set of hydrological drought index are computed using the Standardized Runoff Index (SRI) method with moving average of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Case study of the three irrigation weirs Bodri-Juwero, Notog, and Wlingi in Java confirms that hydrological drought index can be applied to assess the climate change impact in surface water especially at irrigation weirs. It is concluded that the severity and stress of hydrological drought index follow the same pattern of climate change impact on irrigation area affected by drought. The projected hydrological drought index for the next 30 years shows increasing of drought severity with longer drought duration at irrigation weirs. Keywords: climate change, drought, hydrological drought, drought index, irrigation, irrigation weir 1. INTRODUCTION Hydrological system is highly affected by climate change. Water availability characteristics in the future will change substantially. Dry season with decreasing low flow will be in longer duration. In other word, the drought will be more severe, and the duration of the drought will be longer. Drought is a creeping disaster, originate from lack of rainfall or meteorological drought, which cause decreasing flows in the rivers and drawdown of lakes, and becoming hydrological drought. Hydrological drought index is having higher correlation with the irrigation are affected by drought than meteorological drought. Climate change impact assessment using hydrological drought index at the irrigation weir have the advantage of directly related to irrigation drought. This paper proposes to quantify climate change impact using hydrological drought index, which is simple to measure and highly related with drought. Please explain why the case study sites are selected. This concept is validated using irrigation weirs having good long time-series of monthly river flow data as well as the pairing hectares of irrigation areal affected by drought. 1 Researcher Research Center for Water Resources, Ministry of Public Works and Housing, Jalan Ir.

METHODS 2.1 Case Study: Irrigation Weir Notog, Kragilan and Wlingi Bodri Juwero river gauging station is in the Bodri river right on Juwero weir, Central Java Province. Juwero weir is supplying the irrigation area with an area of 8,861 ha which covers Kendal Regency, Central Java. Notog river gauging station was at the Notog weir of the Pemali river. Notog weir irrigates an irrigation area of 15,180 ha which covers Brebes Regency, Tegal Regency, and Tegal City, Central Java Province. Different from Bodri-Juwero and Notog river gauging station which located in the Central Java region, Wlingi river gauging station is located in East Java around the Wlingi Dam. The Wlingi Dam is an intake from Lodoyo irrigation area with an area of 15,228 ha covering the areas of Blitar and Tulungagung Regencies. The location of the three irrigation weirs are in Figure 1. Figure 1. Location of Bodri-Juwero, Notog, and Wlingi Irrigation Weirs Source: Ministry of Agriculture Indonesia (2018) 2.2 Climate Change Projections and Datasets Climate change impact on rainfall in the future is projected using the worst scenario Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 8.5 that assumes high population and relatively slow income growth with modest rates of technological change and energy intensity improvements, leading in the long term to high energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions in the absence of climate change policies, as mentioned in the latest IPCC report AR 5. The monthly rainfall is projected until the year of 2045 using ensemble of seven models commonly used by Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics, those are CNRM CM5, CNRM RCA, CNRM v2 RegCM, CSIRO MK3,6, EC EARTH, GFDL ESM, and IPSL. Data were divided into two groups consists of baseline periods (1981-2005) and projection period (2006-2045). Projection rainfall data is bias-corrected by using statistical bias corrected methods, quantile mapping. We use CHIRPS dataset as observation rainfall data. CHIRPS data has high resolution and long data sequences so able to cover blank areas, disconnected data, and data inconsistencies in Indonesia area (Sutikno et al (2014) in Fadholi & Adzani, 2018)). To project discharge, empirical projection method is used with observation rainfall and potential evaporation obtained from Potential Evaporation Climatic Research Unit Time Series (CRU TS) version 4.01 (University of East Anglia, n.d.). The empirical 2 3rd World Irrigation Forum (WIF3) International Workshop 1-7 September 2019, Bali, Indonesia CLIMATE.02 methods assumed that changes in discharge for each month are caused by changes in monthly rainfall and potential evaporation. Empirical methods steps to make the discharge projection is further explained in Risbey & Entekhabi (1996) and Fu, Charles, & Chiew (2007). In the projection period, year of 2006-2015 is used as the control period to compare the results of discharge projections with gauging station observational data. Furthermore, for the SRI calculation, we use projected models from seven models and the average of the seven models. 2.3 Hydrological Drought Index Based on the seven projected discharge models, a set of hydrological drought index are computed using the Standardized Runoff Index (SRI) method with moving average of 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. This method applies the concept employed by McKee et al. (1993) for the SPI in defining a standardized runoff index (SRI) as the unit standard normal deviation associated with the percentile of hydrologic runoff accumulated over a specific duration (Shukla and Wood, 2008). The procedure for calculating the SRI includes the following steps: (1) A retrospective time series of runoff is obtained by simulation, and a probability distribution is fit to the sample represented by the time series values. (2) The distribution is used to estimate the cumulative probability of the runoff value of interest (either the current accumulation or one from a retrospective date). (3) The cumulative probability is converted to a standard normal deviation (with zero mean and unit variance), which can either be calculated from a numerical approximation to the normal cumulative distribution function (CDF) or extracted from a table of values for the normal CDF that is already available in statistics text books or on the World Wide Web (Shukla and Wood, 2008). 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1 Climate Change Projections As shown in Figure 1, at high discharge level the seven models give overestimate value with the discharge measured by gauging. The difference between projection with observation is especially shown at the high discharge at Wlingi Weir. As with the probability value of 10%, the average value of the seven models reaches 300 m3/s, while the observation value only ranges from 190 m3/s. At Juwero Weir there is also a significant difference between the calculated discharge and what happens in the field where the probability value of 10% the discharge projection is at the value of 70.4 m3/s while the observation discharge value is 51.65 m3/s. But at Notog Weir from the seven models there are several models that can provide results that are closer to the discharge observation value at high discharge values, such as the EARTH EC model and GFDL ESM. While at the low discharge value, the projection discharge can give better results with the observation discharge value of each station gauging. At Q50% value the value tends to be very close (Wlingi Gauging Station discharge average 110.86 m3/s, observation 108.75 m3/s, Juwero Gauging Station discharge average 21.49 m3/s, observation 22.24 m3/s, and Notog Gauging Station discharge average 52.36 m3/s, observation 52.21 m3/s). Whereas the Q80% discharge projection tends to underestimate two stations and overestimate one station (Wlingi Gauging Station discharge average 42.08 m3/s, observation 62.17 m3/s, Juwero Gauging Station average discharge 7.57 m3/s, observation 11.14 m3/s, and the average Notog Gauging Station discharge is 19.60 m3/s, observation is 16.52 m3/s). But in general, the projection debit of the seven models can provide good results on the average discharge value to low discharge. 3 3rd World Irrigation Forum (WIF3) International Workshop 1-7 September 2019, Bali, Indonesia CLIMATE.02 Due to the fact that the projections give better results in Q50% value, then for comparing value between 2006-2015, 2026-2035, and 2036-2045 average value Q50% will be applied.

Because of the lack a feeling of importance of groundwater, especially, in the late 20th century, groundwater has been significantly damaged by human activities, resulting in groundwater issues, such as land subsidence, seawater intrusion, and groundwater pollution by toxic substances, that have become remarkable problems in everywhere in the world. The countries in the East and Southeast Asia have been also faced the many groundwater problems which are needed international cooperation to be solved. Since the establishment of the organization in 1966, geological and geophysical surveys have been carried out by the CCOP under the cooperative schemes in the East and Southeast Asia for offshore natural resources. These data have been distributed to member countries as printed maps and publications. As for a groundwater project, “Groundwater database in East and Southeast Asia͇had been compiled under the DCGM Phase IV project of CCOP from 2001 to 2004. The following project, named “Groundwater Assessment and Control in the CCOP Region by CCOP-GSJ/AIST Groundwater project” from 2005 to 2008, had been started from a point of view of finding a solution of issues on an exploration and an exploitation of a groundwater resource.

Raya Jakarta – Bogor Km. 46, Cibinong, Bogor 16911 2Faculty of Geography, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Sekip Utara, Bulak Sumur, Yogyakarta Corresponding E-mail: [email protected] Abstract River discharge quantity is highly depended on rainfall and initial condition of river discharge; hence, the river discharge has auto-correlation relationships. This study used Vector Auto Regression (VAR) model for analysing the relationship between rainfall and river discharge variables. VAR model was selected by considering the nature of the relationship between rainfall and river discharge as well as the types of rainfall and discharge data, which are in form of time series data. This research was conducted by using daily rainfall and river discharge data obtained from three weirs, namely Sojomerto and Juwero, in Kendal Regency and Glapan in Demak Regency, Central Java Province. Result of the causality tests shows significant relationship of both variables, those on the influence of rainfall to river discharge as well as the influence of river discharge to rainfall variables. The significance relationships of river discharge to rainfall indicate that the rainfall in this area has moved downstream. In addition, the form of VAR model could explain the variety of the relationships ranging between 6.4% - 70.1%. These analyses could be improved by using rainfall and river discharge time series data measured in shorter time interval but in longer period.

Water is a necessity of life for creatures in this world. No water, no life. The existence of water, other than according to the hydrological cycle, at a particular place, at a particular time, and in particular quality as well as quantity is greatly influenced by a variety of natural phenomena and also by human behavior. Properly managed water and its resources will provide sustainable benefits for life. However, on the other hand, water can also lead to disasters, when it is not managed wisely. Therefore, it is highly necessary to conduct comprehensive and integrated water resources management efforts, or widely known as “Integrated Water Resources Management”. In the same way, river management efforts as part of the river basin integrated water resources management, include efforts on river utilization, development, protection, conservation and control, in an integrated river basin with cross-jurisdiction, cross-regional and cross- sectoral approach. This book outlines how water resources development and management in several river basins are carried out from time to time according to the existing situations and conditions, Besides, it covers various challenges and obstacles faced by the policy makers and the implementers in the field, The existing sets of laws and regulations and the various uses and benefits are also discused.

  • Coasral Aggreilory in WESTERN II{DONESIA CONTENTS
    Bulletin of National Institute of Geology and Mining, Bandung (BulI. NIGM Bandung), v. l, Ilo. 1, p. L5-45, August 1968. coASrAL AggREIlory IN WESTERN II{DONESIA ' lr; '-(' {'"" 1). H.,D. TJIA 1), SU*ENDAR ASIKIN 1), and R. SOERIA ATMADJA ABSTRACT Coastal accretion has been found to be important for Sutnatra's East coast and Java's North coast, rcspectively amounting to 60-50O m/ yr and 55 - Zl4 m/yr near the mouths of large streams. Elsewhere on the same coasts the yearly accretion rates are respectively 15 m and less than 30 m. The annual accretion in the vicinity of Padang (Sumatra's West coast) is less than 10 m. In the Landak region of West Kalimantan a rate of 110 m/yr is known. Data are wanting for other coasts of Indonesia but it seems hardly probable that higher accretion rates are present, except presumably for the Mahakam river, East Kalimantan. Comparing accretion rates on Java's North coast from maps surveyed in the period around 1850 till 1946 (aerial photographs), it was found that aggradation rates most commonly have been accelerating since 1920- This rise is undoubtedly due to an increase in denudation rate through vast. deforestations by the growing population and the partial clearance of estates during the Pacific War and the ensuing armed revolution It may also indicate an absolute lowering of sea level and/or tectonic uplift of the land. Positively favourable for coastal growth are the following factors : High denudation rate in the drainage basins through scanty vegetation, high relief, heavy rainfall and the presence of easily er.odible rock like marl; tectonic uplift; clastic volcanic activity; rhizophora growth in the coastal swamps; low springtides; quiet and shallow sea.

  • Evaluation of Watershed Carrying Capacity for Watershed Management (A Case Study on Bodri Watershed, Central Java, Indonesia)
    MATEC Web of Conferences 195, 05003 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201819505003 ICRMCE 2018 Evaluation of watershed carrying capacity for watershed management (a case study on Bodri watershed, Central Java, Indonesia) Ignatius Sriyana1,* 1Civil Department, Faculty of Engineering, Diponegoro University, Semarang, Indonesia Abstract. Excessive land use without any concern towards land and water conservation codes of conduct has a great potential to cause inevitable erosion and sedimentation, flood, drought, and decrease in vegetation coverage and accelerated land degradation, leading to change in watershed carrying capacity. This study aimed at evaluating the watershed classification, dealing with its carrying capacity, which is fundamental for planning in the watershed management. During the research, the author performed field surveys, questioner dissemination, and laboratory tests for suspended sediment quality. Data collected during the observation were subject to further analysis under five predetermined criteria. The study found that the Bodri Watershed carrying capacity was at 96.7, covering percentage of critical land, percentage of vegetation coverage, erosion index scored 10, respectively. The classification for the Bodri Watershed according to carrying capacity was considered moderate and classified as “to be improved” instead of “to be maintained”. 1 Introduction Watershed Management is a human action aimed at ensuring the use of watershed resources, through an integrated ecosystem approach [1], to maintain the sustainability
