Water flows without recourse to administrative jurisdictions while 17 spatial planning (which is used to control urbanization) is administered with recourse to 18 administrative boundaries. This study aims to explore urbanization and flood events in the northern 19 coast of Central Java by using river basin as the basis of unit analysis. Urbanization is represented 20 by the land conversion from non-built-up to built-up area based on the premise that population 21 growth requires more land consumption which results in rapid urban expansion. Spatial analysis 22 was applied to investigate land conversion and flood events at the up-, mid-, and downstream of 23 four river basin areas by using Landsat data 2009 and 2018 in combination with GIS-based data 24 analyses. Findings show that urbanization, indicated from the growth rate of the built-up area, is 25 very significant. Besides, land conversion has been expanding from the downstream to the upstream 26 due to changing rain and flood patterns. Proper land use planning and control of the river basin 27 level is an essential instrument for safeguarding urban areas (such as the case study area), and the 28 whole of Java in Indonesia. The emerging discussion indicate that flood phenomena is a 29 consequence of urbanization and river basin interactions; and river basins have dual spatial identity 30 in the urban system (policy and land-use related). It also shows that problematizing urbanizing river 31 basins is an opportunity for an eco-based approach to tackling the urban flood crises. 32 Keywords: Central Java; flood; Indonesia; land use; land-use change; river basins; urban areas; 33 urbanization 34 35 1. Introduction 36 Flood is one of the most frequent disasters happening across the globe [1-4]. Rapid urbanization 37 in low-lying areas creates a higher exposure to various types of floods in addition to the increase of 38 coastal flooding caused by sea-level rise and changing rainfall patterns due to climate change [5-9]. 39 Land subsidence appears as another big issue. It is the densification of the coastal area is not followed 40 by a proper water supply system. Furthermore, sprawling phenomena (which happens due to urban 41 extension) also contributes to the increase in flood events. This happens when the land conversion 42 expands, not only by concentrating in the downstream but also by taking place in the upstream area. 43 For land-use change to accommodate the needs and activities of the growing urban populations, it 44 leads to changes in the hydrological system which then result in dangerous floods [10]. Deng et al. Land 2020, 9, x; doi: FOR PEER REVIEW www.mdpi.com/journal/land Land 2020, 9, x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 23 45 [11] (p. 1341) and Chin [12] (p. 469) assert that urbanization is a significant contributor to the changing 46 of the river system and structure as it usually increases flood risk. 47 The issue of flood and urbanization is complicated. Flood risk is identified based on water 48 system delineation. The delineation is mostly defined based on water (river) flow pattern that is 49 gravity-driven and following landscape ecology, which is then formed as a river basin [13]. 50 Accordingly, a river basin is usually characterized by a land area that consists of various types of 51 land use and a number of watersheds that drains from upstream to the downstream area [14]. 52 Apparently, water flows without recourse to administrative jurisdictions while spatial planning (i.e. 53 land use policy) to control urbanization are examined based on the administrative jurisdiction. In 54 Indonesia, it is common that river basins are in more than one administrative boundary or local 55 government authority. This means that a river basin can be found within and outside the local 56 authority that is responsible for river management.

  • (Pb) Pollution in the River Estuaries of Jakarta Bay
    The Sustainable City IX, Vol. 2 1555 Analysis of lead (Pb) pollution in the river estuaries of Jakarta Bay M. Rumanta Universitas Terbuka, Indonesia Abstract The purpose of this study is to obtain information about the level of Pb in the sediment of the estuaries surrounding Jakarta Bay and to compare them. Samples were taken from 9 estuaries by using a grab sampler at three different location points – the left, right and the middle sides of the river. Then, samples were collected in one bottle sample and received drops of concentrated HNO3. The taking of samples was repeated three times. In addition, an in situ measurement of pH and temperature of samples was taken as proponent data. The Pb concentration of the river sediment was measured using an AAS flame in the laboratory of Balai Penelitian Tanah Bogor. Data was analyzed statistically (one way ANOVA and t-test student) by using SPSS-11.5 software. The results show that Pb concentration in the sediment of the estuaries surrounding Jakarta was quite high (20–336 µg/g). The sediment of Ciliwung River in the rainy season was the highest (336 µg/g). Pb concentration of sediment in the dry season was higher than that in the rainy season, except in Ciliwung River. It was concluded that all rivers flowing into Jakarta Bay make a significant contribution to the Pb pollution in Jakarta Bay, and the one with the largest contribution was Ciliwung River. Keywords: Pb, sediment, estuaries, dry season, rainy season, AAS flame. 1 Introduction Jakarta Bay (89 km of length) is formed as a result of the extension of Karawang Cape in the eastern region and Kait Cape in the western region into the Java Sea (Rositasari [1]).

  • 2016 Field Report Tracking Jakarta’S Waters
    FreshWaterWatch 2016 FIELD REPORT TRACKING JAKARTA’S WATERS Ir Hendri Sosiawan We are very grateful for your care, let’s keep on training citizen scientists, collecting water samples Dear Citizen Science Leaders, and continue our efforts to disseminate knowledge We really appreciate your enthusiasm and about the importance of caring for water. Together commitment. we can secure a significant step in sustaining water availability and quality. You have put your Citizen Science Leader training in the classroom and in the field to practice by Ir Hendri Sosiawan collecting many water samples along the Ciliwung Agroclimate and Hydrology Research Institute River. REPORT FIELD You all are the ambassadors who care about the environment, especially the river ecosystem. This ecosystem is particularly vulnerable to pollution. You are all environmental researchers. Your commitment, passion and concern for the quality of the river water is admirable, thank you! Amazon Riverboat Exploration—2012 1 HIGHLIGHTS The highest concentration of nitrate and phosphate in the Ciliwung River is found during the dry season (July-October) and when the agricultural practices for vegetable crops is very intensive. We have found that the fluctuations of nitrate and phosphate concentrations in Ciliwung river are not only influenced by agriculture practices, but also depend on rainwater discharge during the rainy season or dry season. In a tropical country like Indonesia the water river discharge is significantly different between the rainy and dry seasons. So the abundance of nitrate and phosphate in the water during the rainy season was diluted by increased rainwater discharging into the river, even though the agricultural practices along Ciliwung river were at their peak.

NOORDUYN BUJANGGA MANIK'S JOURNEYS THROUGH JAVA: TOPOGRAPHICAL DATA FROM AN OLD SUNDANESE SOURCE One of the precious remnants of Old Sundanese literature is the story of Bujangga Manik as it is told in octosyllabic lines — the metrical form of Old Sundanese narrative poetry — in a palm-leaf MS kept in the Bodleian Library in Oxford since 1627 or 1629 (MS Jav. b. 3 (R), cf. Noorduyn 1968:460, Ricklefs/Voorhoeve 1977:181). The hero of the story is a Hindu-Sundanese hermit, who, though a prince (tohaari) at the court of Pakuan (which was located near present-day Bogor in western Java), preferred to live the life of a man of religion. As a hermit he made two journeys from Pakuan to central and eastern Java and back, the second including a visit to Bali, and after his return lived in various places in the Sundanese area until the end of his life. A considerable part of the text is devoted to a detailed description of the first and the last stretch of the first journey, i.e. from Pakuan to Brëbës and from Kalapa (now: Jakarta) to Pakuan (about 125 lines out of the total of 1641 lines of the incomplete MS), and to the whole of the second journey (about 550 lines).

In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat.

This paper discusses hydrological drought monitoring and prediction system in Pemali-Comal River Basin by utilizing a Drought Early Warning System (DEWS) based on Delft-FEWS software. The Standardized Runoff Index (SRI) is applied to river discharges data which is collected through a real-time telemetering system. In case of unavailability of river discharge data, TRMM satellite rainfall data is used to simulate river discharges. A preliminary prototype of DEWS shows that the characteristics of previous drought events can be evaluated, and the simulation shows the possibility of forecasting hydrological drought with time lag of 6 months. © 20152015 The The Authors.

Bogor Agricultural University Abstract The limited supply of clean water led to some residents in the city, as well as business and trade areas using underground water. Optimization of land used in the development of new towns and expanded impervious land surface, thus reducing infiltration capacity, resulting in an increased volume of runoff. The use of underground water and the reduced infiltration of rainwater resulted in a decrease in the underground water table. To maintain the underground water table and preventing land subsidence resulted from the use of underground water as raw material for clean water. The effort required is how doing underground water conservation. This paper discusses the development of new towns to assess the natural landscape as underground water conservation efforts on the development of the new town. The research method uses a quantitative approach to calculate the potential runoff using a soil conservation service, while to analyze the trend of changes in land cover using temporal spatial analysis, using descriptive analysis.
