Water Disaster

Sintang merupakan salah satu kota di Kalimantan Barat yang berada di pertemuan dua sungai, yaitu sungai Kapuas dan Sungai Melawi. Kelurahan Kapuas Kiri Hilir, Kelurahan Menyumbung Tengah dan Kelurahan Ulak Jaya merupakan kawasan permukiman padat yang sudah ada sejak lama di Sintang, dekat dengan pusat historis Kota Sintang yaitu Keraton Sintang dan tetap eksis sampai sekarang. Sedangkan kondisi dunia yang sedang mengalami pemanasan global mengakibatkan kawasan-kawasan yang berhubungan langsung dengan air rentan mengalami kenaikan permukaan air sungai (pasang air). Mengingat mahalnya harga nyawa manusia maka diperlukan penelitian pada pemanfaatan ruang sirkulasi dan ruang terbuka untuk mitigasi bencana berbasis bencana air ketiga kelurahan tersebut.Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi dan mengilustrasikan model mitigasi bencana berbasis bencana air (hydrometeorological disaster), dilihat dari persepsi masyarakat dan pemanfaatan ruang sirkulasi dan ruang terbuka.Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan pola pikir induktif yaitu berpikir berlandaskan pandangan khusus ke umum. Teknik pengumpulan data, pengolahan data, dan analisis dilakukan dengan membandingkan metode kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Kuantitatif digunakan untuk mengukur persepsi masyarakat akan bencana berbasis bencana air. Sedangkan metode kualitatif mendeskripsikan dalam bentuk ilustrasi pemanfaatan ruang terbuka dan sirkulasi.Hasil penelitian persepsi masyarakat disimpulkan bahwa bencana yang sering terjadi adalah bencana kenaikan permukaan air (banjir/pasang). Masyarakat juga berpendapat walaupun mereka menghadapi kemarau, namun dampaknya tidak terlalu terasa karena mereka sudah mengantisipasi dengan menyediakan tempat penampungan air. Dan berdasarkan kondisi fisik lapangan, model mitigasi bencana berupa jalur sirkulasi berupa titian (papan kayu).Kata-kata Kunci: mitigasi, bencana, persepsi, ruang, sirkulasiTHE PERCEPTION OF RIVERBANK COMMUNITY ON UTILIZATION OF CIRCULATION AND OPEN SPACE AS DISASTER MITIGATION RESPONSE BASED ON WATER DISASTER IN SINTANGSintang is one of the cities in West Kalimantan which lies in the confluence of two rivers, i.e. Kapuas River and Melawi River. Kapuas Kiri Hilir Village, Menyumbung Tengah Village and Ulak Jaya Village have been densely populated residential areas in Sintang for a long time, located close to the historical centre of Sintang i.e. Sintang Palace and still exists today. While the condition of the world that is experiencing global warming has resulted in areas that are directly related to water susceptible to rising water levels (tidal water). Given the value of human life, research is needed on the use of the circulation space and open space for disaster mitigation based on water in the three villages.This study aims to identify and illustrate a model of water disaster-based mitigation (hydrometeorological disaster), seen from the public perception and utilization of circulation and open space.This research was conducted using an inductive mindset, which is thinking based from specific detail to general truth. Data collection techniques, data processing, and analysis were carried out by comparing quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative was used to measure people's perceptions of disaster based on water-disaster. Whereas qualitative method described the illustration of open space and circulation.The results of the research on community perceptions concluded that disaster that often occurs is disaster of rising water levels (flood / tide). The community also believes that even though they face droughts, the impact is not too pronounced because they have anticipated it by providing water reservoirs. And based on the physical field condition, the suitable disaster mitigation model is circulation paths in the form of wooden board.Keywords: mitigation, disaster, percention, space, circulation REFERENCESHaifani, Akhmad Muktaf. 2008.

House Building

This study aims to reveal the lexicons in the Kaili etnic architecture as an effort to protect their ethno-architectural lexicons (houses). Remember the fundamental nature of the house as a necessity for human life, the local wisdom embedded in the Kaili house building reflects the concept of green architecture. This is an inseparable part of the fact that the language and culture of the houses in the Kaili etnics live, namely Palu, Sigi and Donggala as areas that often occur in earthquakes (Palu-Koro strike-slip fault ). Local knowledge that becomes local wisdom that carries the green architecture concept needs to be preserved. This reflects the value of local wisdom that is environmentally sound by upholding customs for the preservation of human civilization. The disclosure of this lexicon is done using a qualitative descriptive method. Language data in the form of lexicons of house buildings were analyzed to explore the description of Kaili etnics houses, their socio-cultural functions, and the concept of green architecture as disaster mitigation efforts. The findings of this study are expected to be able to strengthen research related to disaster mitigation (earthquake) in an interdisciplinary perspective to minimize the impact of disasters on human life.

Disaster is a phenomenon that has a destructive effect and arises with or without predictions that always accompany human life. This damaging impact can be in the form of loss of life and / or property loss so that it disrupts the natural and social order. Lombok is one of the islands in the group of islands in West Nusa Tenggara. The island of Lombok is flanked by two large faults, the Flores Back Arc Thrust (FBAT) which extends north of Nusa Tenggara to Bali and Megathrust on the south of Lombok. Seeing from the great potential of earthquake disasters that can occur at any time on the island of Lombok, it is necessary to prepare disaster mitigation well in order to minimize the impact of earthquake disaster risk. From the problems outlined, the researchers plan to create a mobile-based earthquake e-standby application. This study aims to create a mobile-based earthquake e-alert application that can be used to view the latest earthquake information, information for determining the nearest evacuation location and educational media related to earthquake disaster awareness. The stages of the research use the prototype development method with stages, namely the study of literature, collection of needs, data collection, needs analysis, design, prototype implementation, prototype evaluation, implementation and testing and conclusions. The conclusion of this research is the construction of a mobile-based earthquake e-alert application. This application is useful for improving, understanding and public awareness of the risk of earthquake disasters and as an educational media to create disaster resilient communities

Abstract Disasters have just hit Palu, Sigi, and Donggala, resulting in the fall of so many victims, not only humans but also city and village physicals (residential buildings, facilities, and infrastructure). Several villages hit by the disaster were hamlet 3 Vou, Langaleso village, Dolo sub-district, Jono Oge village, Biromaru sub-district, and Sigi district. The village’s condition was damaged, but most of the buildings and plants were lost to the mud. Settlement neighborhoods that should be full of activity are nowhere to be seen, and people become apathetic. They just accept this situation and are always waiting for help. Huntara, a form of assistance provided by funders, temporarily occupy the settlers’ land because the condition of the land or land needs to be cleared for the rebuilding process. The provision of inclusive spaces is one of the efforts to mitigate disasters in residential areas, namely public spaces that can be used by all settlers. These spaces must be safe and provide comfort, easy to reach, and become part of the residential environment. Village arrangement is one way that can be done to minimize the impact of a disaster. Arrangement of buildings, facilities, and environmental infrastructure are necessary not to create chaos in development. Also, aspects of environmentally friendly residential (village) spatial patterns, structural systems, and building construction that meet the requirements (SNI), the application of local and humane wisdom are no less important to consider in the process of procuring inclusive spaces in settlements, structuring villages, especially after a disaster.

The community greenway is a kind of greenway that goes through high-density residential areas in the city and is closely related to residents’ life. However, few scholars focus on how this type of greenways serves the everyday life of the community as an integrated resource. This aspect is important because the everyday life in the public space involves multiple activities. How to coordinate and satisfy these activities relates to the benefits of community greenways. Therefore, this paper takes a representative community greenway in Haizhu District of Guangzhou as an example, to study whether community greenways match the needs of necessary activities, optional activities and social activities. The usage patterns, the evaluation of the current status, the impact on everyday activities, and the importance of different construction factors were surveyed. The applied methods include site observation, questionnaires and interviews. The results show that more than 90% of users are from communities within 1 mile from the community greenway. More than half of the users (55%) are satisfied with the community greenways. Furthermore, the community greenways benefit the everyday activities of residents, such as transportation, recreation, social interaction and also other minor but important everyday activities. However, from the perspective of residents’ requirements for construction factors, the status of service facilities needs to be improved. The characteristics, overall benefits, and construction implications of community greenways are therefore discussed. Community greenways can be important open space for residents and this paper is significant on community greenways meeting the needs of residents’ everyday activities, thus, to provide a better community living environment and to build a better urban open space system.

&lt;p&gt;For sustainable future I plan various activities, workshops, local IIT visit, Planetarium and Science center visits, arrange film screening, simulation exercises, Virtual trips, quizzes on various topics and map work, independent research for better understanding, conducting observations and finding out answers/reasons for their findings. The very purpose is to broaden their horizons and make them global citizens. According to me a class can be how the teacher wants it. If you have compassion and if you are passionate about your work then most of the work is done. While teaching Science, I always try to correlate things with day-to-day life and make students reaffirm their accumulated knowledge through nature&amp;#8217;s very own perspective.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of my favorite topics is Water in our ecosystem. Today, as we all are aware of, sea levels are rising across the world due to global warming and glacial melting as a result thereof. Yet another catastrophic form of the wrath expressed by nature is in form of Flash Floods. It is a rapid flooding and an almost sudden surge in water levels within a few hours or, at times, minutes of the rainfall that causes a catastrophic loss of life and material wealth. Instances of these flash floods are increasing in number and intensity, not only in India but every elsewhere of the world. The question here is, that was it inevitable or could we have done something to prevent these. However, since the times can&amp;#8217;t be averted, there is no use of crying over the milk that we have spilt ourselves. The spotlight today should be on ways of preventing these self-invented calamities. Since there is no &amp;#8216;Undo&amp;#8217; button in life, it calls for some out of the box thinking and putting self-restraints on some deep-rooted human habits, to be able to set aside these ill effects our past misdeeds.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The vast amount of water, which comprises our oceans, plays a crucial role in stabilizing the climate, making our earth&amp;#8217;s atmosphere hospitable for human life. Land which is closer to the ocean is subject to more frequent shifts in weather, however, water acts as an environmental shock absorber.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Teaching Earth Sciences at middle school level is an opportunity to make projects on Flash floods and carry it out by complex analysis of the rain gauge, geological, geophysical, predictive, diagnostic, descriptive and geodetic information available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students work in small groups of 4-5 and find out information about local weather and climatic conditions, together with the river basin geography and geology as part of computer-generated models to simulate combinations of conditions to see the impact on water level. What they learn is applied to the design of data structures to control flood waters. They also find out about disastrous flash floods, lists and map them out, by year or by location. It&amp;#8217;s involves a multidisciplinary approach as they write a report on it in their language subjects (Hindi and English), find the ways to control it (Science), location, mapping and affected area (Geography).&lt;/p&gt;

Disaster mitigation has been undertaken to reduce the impact of loss or damage caused by the earthquake. For disaster mitigation purpose, it is necessary to conduct a local geological assessment. The horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) of microtremor analysis is very popular in the context of seismic micro-zonation. Microtremor method is cheap, data acquisition is easy, and does not cause noise, so suitable for use in residential areas. This research aims to determine the distribution of the natural frequency value, the amplification factor value, and the soil vulnerability index value. This study was conducted geographically between 7°26'17.45" – 7°26'53.16" S and 111°47'14.76" – 111°48'7.06" E. Data processing using HVSR analysis method on Easy HVSR software. The results showed that the natural frequency (<em>f<sub>o</sub></em>) values range 0,95 Hz to 8,3 Hz and the amplification factor values range 2,05 to 8,67. From the result data of the natural frequency and the amplification factor, the soil vulnerability index can be calculated. The vulnerability index (Kg) value ranges from 1,09 to 68,33. The northeast side of the study area is indicated as a weak zone where have high potential to damage when the earthquake occurred.

Abstract The role of public open space as one of the city elements can give its own character, and in general has the function of social interaction for the community. Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk is one of the public open spaces that is used as a waterfront recreation area in Banda Aceh City. The location of the Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk is on the riverbank of the Krueng Aceh river which flows through the center of Banda Aceh City and is a strategic area of the city as the center of the Old City. Before transformed into a Culinary Peunayong Riverwalk, this area is abandoned and used as a slum empty space due to the impact of different orientations. Currently the river transportation orientation route is starting to be abandoned which causes increased access to circulation route on the land. The construction of Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk has shift the image of the city to be much better. However the government of the city is still yet optimally developed the Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk which can be seen from the availability of several facilities that have not been fulfilled, for instance is the lacking of parking lot which force the visitors to use the road as a parking lot and results in traffic jam. This is one of the causes of the poor quality of Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk as a public open space and will have an impact on the quality of urban space and the image of the city as a whole. With those problems at hands, this article will discuss further regarding the quality of Peunayong Culinary Riverwalk as a successful public open space based on four PPS criteria, namely uses & activities; access & linkages; comfort & image; and sociability [9]. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The data from this research were obtained from the results of field observations and will be analysed by coding.

The cultural heritage is a potential resource for ensuring quality of human life and sustainable development. The urban environment, in which we live, is not frozen, it is constantly developing. Each time it leaves footprints in the space that can enrich or downgrade its architecturally compositional expression. The environment is constantly changing due to human ambitions, errors and actions. For the preservation of cultural space and development, interdisciplinary cooperation and understanding is required. Identity maintenance of the urban space of Bauska is mainly associated with identification, restoration and preservation of cultural and historical sites as well as care and protection of the landscape space specific to this site. Under the impact of the green cover of the river bank it is visually hard to see the place of rapids. This also applies to the balanced green area in the town's historical centre.
