Abstract

Coastal area is the most vulnerable area to climate change. Cirebon coastal land in Western Java, Indonesia is low-lying coastal area which is one of the potential areal for fish culture and farming. There are also major transportation facilities for western Java province to the whole area in the island (Java) through this area. As low-lying landscape, populated and developing city, Cirebon should be considered vulnerable to future sea level rise. Geomorphology, geo-electric and remote sensing study were conducted during 2008 and 2009 in coastal land of Cirebon. The result showed that most part of coastal area in Cirebon was eroded in various scales which vulnerable turn to worst. Sea water was penetrating throughout several kilometres inland. Valuation on various land-uses would project 1,295,071,755,150 rupiah/ha/year of loss while sea level were rose 0.8 meters that would inundate various land-uses i.e., Shrimp, fish and salt ponds, rice fields and settlement in the area.Keywords: vulnerability, coastal, climate change, sea level rise

Abstract

The coral reef ecology of the Natuna Islands has been studied over 10 years. However, none of those studies produced a coral reef map. Maps of coral reef ecosystem are important for planning, management and monitoring tool. The present study integrates the 115 field data and the ALOS satellite data, using depth invariant index algorithm to generate coral reef ecosystem classes. Those classes are: life corals, dead coral and rubble aggregates, mixing of substrates and sand. The algorithm that composed of three visible bands is applicable at clear water rather than at turbid water environment. Hence, vegetation coverage as well as seagrass, seaweed and macro algae which are in small extent and usually covered by fine sand materials and associated with turbid water, cannot be classified.The aim of this research, which is funded by Critic Coremap – LIPI, is to produce map of coral reef ecosystem in the Natuna Islands.
