Abstract

Recent climate change and variability together with other anthropogenic drivers have exerted tremendous pressure on the fragile dryland ecosystem of Sokoto, North-western Nigeria. Vegetation phenology is one of the active indicators of the impacts of climate change on the ecosystem. This study aimed to monitor how the ecosystem of the area responds to the challenges associated with climate change in order to provide baseline information for policies and programmes geared towards addressing these challenges. It explored the applications of remote sensing data (MODIS-NDVI), GIS and statistical analyses in achieving this aim. Image processing operations such as data extraction, raster calculations, geometric transformations and creation of the region of interest were conducted using ArcGIS 10.5 model builder while TIMESAT software was used determined the vegetation phenological events such as the start, end and length of the growing seasons. The results indicated a persistent decline in the length of the growing seasons of the major vegetation classes in the area due to late onset and early cessation of the growing season which is positively correlated with rainfall distribution. From the year 2001 to 2016, 36% and 33% declined in the length of the growing season were recorded for shrubs and grasses respectively. These are positively correlated with the annual rainfall distributions in the area, with the correlation coefficient of r = 0.40 and r = 0.36 for the shrubs and grasses respectively. Implications of these on the ecosystem and livelihoods of the people in the area were discussed and ways forward suggested.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to map the vulnerable Javanese language in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, namely in the City of Yogyakarta and in the regencies of Sleman, Gunungkidul, Kulon Progo, and Bantul. Furthermore, it seeks to understand the role of different agents in preserving the Javanese language in those areas. Due to the dominating use of Indonesian language, the Javanese language has decreased in usage in various modes of communication in schools especially Jawa krama (medium-register variety). Making this language vulnerability mapping is important to locate in the context of the region, the language vulnerability that occurs more than other regions. This mapping can be used by the policy makers to strengthen the Javanese language used in the regions. A geographic information system was used to map the language's vulnerability in this region. The findings of this research are, first, there is an even distribution of the level of language vulnerability throughout the region, especially in the declining usage of Jawa krama. Second, schools no longer serve as agents in the preservation of the usage and competence of the Javanese language, especially Jawa krama. Third, family and social environments still hold potential for the preservation of the Javanese language, although mostly for Jawa ngoko.

Abstract

The certainty of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomaly during earthquakes in Java Island was still not clear identified. This research tried to identify any possibilities of SST anomaly during earthquake in Southern Java Island. It used Google Earth Engine datasets including daily NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI): Sea Surface Temperature Version 2 which has resolution of 0.25 arc degrees for 20 years and processed them to depict SST trends in pre-earthquake and post-earthquake situation. The statistic test of t-Test Paired Two Sample was also applied to certain the significant difference of SST in both situations. SST fluctuation during the earthquake was still inconsistent and unclear to consider as an anomaly. There were other complicated factors excluding earthquake to influence SST fluctuation. The earthquake did not trigger directly to fluctuate SST, even not to make it being an anomaly.

Abstract

The Semarang Old City revitalization has changed its physical appearance significantly, from a slum and crowded area to a more organized, pleasant, and attractive one. The revitalization is one of the Mayor's missions after being reelected in 2015 to enhance the Old City’s image as a prominent historical tourist destination. The government established a regulation prohibiting informal activities in the Old City. Informality is considered an interference in urban areas, including spaces that accommodate informal activities through illegal acquisition. However, informal activities persist in the Old City, shifting the physical setting and transforming the spatial utilization. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the transformation of informal spaces in the Old City after revitalization. Quantitative methods were used by distributing questionnaires to informal activity workers and interviews with the Old City manager. The results showed spatial utilization and relation transformations, a close relationship between informal and formal activities, and no conflict regarding spatial utilization. However, the relationship between formal and informal spaces changed after the revitalization. Formal activities prefer clear spatial boundaries, making informal space utilization and pattern more dynamic.

Abstract

Street vending is one of the most visible informal occupations and a notable source of income for the urban poor. Contrary to what is projected in urban planning models, informal sector proliferates in cities of the Global South due to the combined processes of increasing urbanisation and globalization. The present paper is an attempt to measure spatial vulnerability of street vendors in Aizawl City- one of the fastest growing hill cities in India. By using simple random sampling method, 400 street vendors from five prominent street markets were interviewed through scheduled questionnaire. The analysis shows that the socio-economic condition of street vendors and the environmental quality of street markets varies spatially and, low level of vulnerability is associated with presence of proper regulation and provision of basic infrastructures. It also examines how street vendors in the city negotiated, appropriated and adapted to remain in the informal sector and, lastly, it appraises the role of the local government and communities in the process of livelihood protection of street vendors.

Abstract

This research is a social study by capturing several problems in the oil and gas sector combined with literature studies that have relevant themes. This study aims to determine the social, economic, cultural and health impacts of the oil and gas company's exploration activities in the Tuban Oil and Gas Field. Data collection was in the form of primary data and secondary data in semester II of 2018. The methods used in this study were qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative methods taken from primary data, namely observation and interviews. Primary data were obtained through direct observation and interviews with respondents selected by purposive sampling. The quantitative method uses secondary data obtained from research documents and reports relating to government agencies and companies. Primary data and secondary data were combined and then conducted interviews to obtain deeper information using the forum group discussion (FGD) method. The final data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. The results of the study show that there are jobs for local workers, but the information is still not transparent and most of the jobs are temporary projects. Most people know and feel the benefits of the presence of oil and gas companies in their area. The community expects the company's attention to reduce people's concerns about oil and gas activities. Conflicts often occur due to delays in the disbursement of compensation funds and the implementation of CSR, as well as several oil and gas company activities that have a direct impact on the community. The company's efforts to boost the local economy by increasing employment opportunities and increasing wage rates. Meanwhile, in terms of public health, it cannot be determined with certainty whether there is a correlation between disease and the activities of oil and gas companies. In general, oil and gas companies have a positive impact on the community around the working areas of oil and gas companies.

Abstract

Hypertension is one type of Non-communicable Disease (NCD) that is a burden on the government in disease control every year. Hypertension is caused by various risk factors. Most of the risk factors for hypertension are lifestyles that can be changed. This study aims to determine the pattern of distribution of hypertension cases based on risk factors, social factors, health care facilities. The spatial approach was used to determine the spatial relationship between hypertension risk factors and hypertension cases in the Jakarta province. The spatial approach was used to determine the spatial relationship between hypertension risk factors and hypertension cases in the Jakarta province. The results showed that the screening program variable had a spreading pattern with a negative spatial relationship and there was a spatial interaction between the screening program variables and hypertension cases. Improving the quality and quantity of Non-communicable Disease Integrated Assistance Post activities of local health centers, which are the front line in preventive and promotive activities is expected to be the key to successful control of hypertension cases in the Jakarta.

Abstract

Warmer temperature than normal has been observed in the central part of Java Island-Indonesia during the monsoon transition in 2019. To explain the environmental process related to temperature variability, this research aims to characterize the process related to temperature anomaly and explain the contributing factors in terms of radiation balance and latent heat flux. This research uses the data from two meteorological stations from the Indonesian Bureau of Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) and the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP/NCAR) Reanalysis Project to explain the temperature anomaly. Several parameters, such as near-surface air temperature and humidity, cloudiness, solar and longwave radiation, as well as latent heat flux are obtained from the reanalysis data. This study focuses on descriptive time-series data analysis to explain the factors that contribute to the April 2019 temperatures. The results of this study show the effect of the Madden–Jullian Oscillation (MJO) on weather anomalies. The increase in humidity when the study area is traversed by the MJO causes an increase in humidity followed by intensive cloud formation and the release of latent heat in the cloud. The release of latent heat contributes significantly to the increase in temperature compared to the effect of the shortwave and longwave radiation balance. Thus, atmospheric phenomena in the tropics need to be studied further concerning warmer temperatures because they can be significantly affected by climate change.

Abstract

Traffic accidents are a major and crucial problem worldwide. The development of a traffic accident simulation system applied by using a geographic information system and multiple logistic regression with clustering can provide drivers with safe routes as well as guidelines for assessing the risk points of accidents in each subdistrict. This research is based on case-control study design. The data were collected by using two types of questionnaires: a questionnaire for 35 community leaders and a questionnaire for 580 community residents based on the distance at which main routes pass through the subdistrict area. The data were analysed through multiple logistic regression with clustering, and the standardized coefficient of the selected variables was then added to the equation as a weight in the traffic accident simulation system. The results of the study indicated that 11 variables affected traffic accidents. These factors were evaluated in order to predict traffic accidents (Pseudo R square=0.5906). Standardized coefficient of variables was applied in a geographic information system to simulate traffic accidents on roads. This study was distinctive for its analysis, which examined the clusters of variables that were the subdistrict-level data, including surroundings and road conditions at the riskiest location in each subdistrict. The data were analysed based on their quality as subdistrict data clusters. The analysis results were then applied as the weight of variables used in the GIS to obtain the values appropriate to the data clusters’ quality for the GIS to properly simulate traffic accidents in each area.
