Abstract

Telah dilakukan identifikasi potensi kejadian petir di Sulawesi Utara dengan menggunakan data hasil pendeteksian kejadian hari petir sejak tahun 2000 sampai 2008. Pendeteksian kejadian hari petir dilakukan oleh BMKG Sulawesi Utara di stasiun Manado, Bitung, Tondano, Naha dan stasiun Gorontalo. Data yang telah diolah disajikan dalam bentuk peta Iso Keraunik Level (IKL) yang menggambarkan tingkat potensi petir masing-masing daerah pengamatan. Diperoleh hasil bahwa Sulut banyak mengalami kejadian hari petir sepanjang tahun 2000-2008 khususnya Bolaang Mongondow Utara, Tondano dan Manado. Tingkat potensi petir tertinggi meliputi Bolaang Mongondow Utara dan Gorontalo sebesar 48% disusul Tondano 42% lalu Manado sebesar 38%, Bitung 17% dan terakhir Naha 11%. IDENTIFICATION OF THE POTENTIAL FOR LIGHTNINGOCCURRENCE IN NORTH SULAWESIABSTRACTIdentification of the potential for lightning occurrence in North Sulawesi using the data detection result from 2000 until 2008. The detection of lightning events were conducted by BMKG stations of Manado, Bitung, Tondano, Naha and Gorontalo. The processed data were presented in the map of the isocronic level that described the lightning potential level in each observation location. The results indicated that North Sulawesi experienced many lightning events during 2000-2008, especially in North Bolaang Mongondow, Tondano and Manado. The highest potential level of lightning was North Bolaang Mongondow as well as Gorontalo (48%), followed by Tondano (42%), Manado (38%), Bitung (17%), and the lowest was Naha (11%).
