Interpretation

Theoretical Background

According to Strahler (1983), the shape of land is the land surface configuration generated by natural processes. Further Whitton (1984) stated that the land forms a morphology and surface characteristics of land as a result of interaction between physical processes and crustal movements by coating the surface of the earth's geology. Under the second definition, it can be concluded that the shape of the land is part of the earth's surface that has a distinctive topographic forms, due to the strong influence of natural processes and geological structures in the rock material in a specific chronological time and space. Or it can also be said that the landform is formed on the surface of the earth as a result of changes in the form of the earth's surface by geomorphic processes operating in the earth's surface. Each landform is characterized by the differences in terms of structure and process geomorphology, relief/topography, and the constituent material (lithology).
Geomorphological structure provides information about the origin (genesis) of the land form. Geomorphological processes mirrored by the level erosion, while the relief is determined by the difference in the highest point with the lowest point and slope. Relief or topography gives the impression of information about the configuration of the surface shape is determined by the state land morphometric. Lithological information types and characteristics of rocks and their constituent minerals, which would affect the formation of landforms.
By looking at very complex the landscape that is in the earth's surface, it must first be classified into landform units. Thus, the classification of landform aims to simplify a complex landscape in the earth's surface into simple units (of land) that have a similarity in the nature.
Verstappen (1983) has classified based on landform genesis into ten main classes, namely:

1. Structural landform origin.
2. Volcanic landform origin.
3. Denudational landform origin.
4. Fluvial landform origin.
5. Marine landform origin.
6. Glacial landform origin.
7. Aeolian landform origin.
8. Solusional landform origin.
9. Organic landform origin.
10. Anthropogenic landform origin.

The earth’s surface composes three rocks types: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Each type of the rocks has a certain characteriristic that is reflected in the relief, topography, drainage pattern, drainage density, the landform and land cover/land use.
Constituent aspects of landform units, rock type and geological structure can be identified from photo or image characteristics such as: tone or color, mottling, texture, pattern, shape, size, shadow, site and geographical situation, which are then carried out field checks. Interpretation of aerial photos will provide an overview geomorphological processes such as erosion, sedimentation, weathering, and rock mass movement. The rocks types and the geological structures data or information can be used as basic data for the other thematic maps construction, such hydrogeomorphologic, morphoconservation and soil maps. Both rock types and geological structures are important factors for land evaluation, hazard assessment as input data for regional planning.

Aim of the exercise
1. to identify the rock types from landsat image
2. to identify geological structure from landsat image
3. to identify the landform unit from landsat image
4. to analyze spatial distribution of the rock type, geological structure and landform unit in relation to landuse or land cover.

Natural resources in landform unit


Fluvial landform has soil type that contains organic matter. It make the soil became to fertile. It seen with the landuse in fluvial landform area is dominated by agricultural land. And in structural and denudational landform is dominated by forestry land. Agricultural and forestry aspect in this area can became to be resourced to increase regional economics.


Natural hazzard potency in landform unit


This area is dominated by hilly relief formation. With the texture of coarse rock which was dominated by sand, so it is possible to be an area prone to landslides. Especially in areas with the formation of denudational landforms. For that, we need the existence of a spatial planning that takes into account vulnerability to disasters, such as not make a planning to build settlement in high vulnerable areas of landslides disaster. In addition, the potential for lowland flooding. That's because the many rivers that flow and leads to the alluvial plains. Those rivers carry water from higher land. For that, we need the a plan regarding drainage to prevent flooding disasters that may occur.

Atmosfer

PENGERTIAN ATMOSFER

Adalah lapisan udara yang menyelubungi bumi sampai ketinggian 300 km, terdiri dari campuran berbagai gas yaitu Niterogen, Oksigen, Argon, dan sejumlah gas kecil lainnya.

LAPISAN ATMOSFER TERDIRI ATAS :


TROPOSFER (ketinggian rata-rata 11 km)

STRATOSFER (ketinggian mencapai 50 km)

MESOSFER (ketinggian antara 50-85 km)

TERMOSFER (ketinggian antara 85-500 km)

EKSOSFER (ketinggian diatas 500 km)

Troposfer

Troposfer merupakan lapisan terbawah dari atmosfer. Ketebalan rata-ratanya 12 km, ketinggian dikhatulistiwa antara 0 - 16 km sedangkan di wilayah kutub berkisar antara 0 -8 km dan 4/5 dari massa udara terdapat pada lapisan troposfer. Semakin tinggi lapisan udara, suhunya semakin turun hingga mencapai -60°C. Setengah dari ketinggiannya terdapat awan dan di lapisan ini seluruh gejala-gejala cuaca terjadi. Pada troposfer setiap naik di atmosfer 100 meter maka temperatur akan turun 0,5°C (khusus Indonesia 0,6°C), terdapat lapisan peralihan antara troposfer dengan stratosfer yang disebut tropopause yang berketebalan ± 2 km

Stratosfer (lapisan yang berlapis)

Stratosfer terletak pada ketinggian antara 18 sampai 49 km dari permukaan bumi. Didalamnya terdapat molekul gas yang tidak terpakai di troposfer.Lapisan bawahnya sampai ketinggian 35 km mengandung nitrogen yang bila turun ke troposfer dan terkena petir akan mengalami oksidasi nitrat dan dapat membantu pembentukan hujan. Lapisan atasnya mengandung ozon yang berguna untuk menyerap sinar ultraviolet sehingga memungkinkan kehidupan di bumi. Temperatur di lapisan bawah stratosfer dapat naik sampai 55°C. Lapisan bawah ini sering disebut sebagai lapisan Isotermis.

Mesosfer (campuran)

Mesosfer terletak pada ketinggian 49 - 82 km. Pada mesosfer semakin naik maka suhu akan turun mencolok hingga - 73°C, diketinggian 80 km disebut lapisan hangat (dilapisan inilah terbakarnya meteor yang tidak habis terbakar di eksosfer saat bergesekan dengan atmosfer bumi)

Termosfer (disebut juga lapisan ionosfer)

Termosfer terdapat pada ketinggian antara 82 - 800 km. Pada lapisan ini semakin tinggi maka suhu akan naik hingga mencapai 1232°C pada ketinggian 480 km. Perbedaan suhu antara siang dengan sore bisa mencapai ratusan derajat celcius, terdapat juga aurora dan awan pijar malam hari kadang berkilauan pada waktu pagi dan sore dari korona Matahari yang kemudian teralirkan ke kedua kutub bumi. Pada lapisan ini terdapat lapisan ionosfer di ketinggian 80 sampai dengan 360 km yang merupakan lapisan terjadinya ionisasi. Partikel ion yang terbentuk berfungsi sebagai pemantul gelombang suara dan cahaya dari bumi, yang disebut juga Appleton (lapisan F) dalam bentuk gelombang radio,

Gelombang panjang

ketinggian 30.000 - 1.000 meter di lapisan Kennely Heavyside

Gelombang menengah

ketinggian 1.000 - 200 meter

Gelombang pendek

ketinggian 200 - 10 meter di lapisan Appleton

Eksosfer (disebut juga Desifasister)

Eksosfer yang sering disebut sebagai ruang antar planet dan geostationer terdapat pada ketinggian 800 - 1.000 km. Dilapisan ini terjadi gerakan atom - atom secara bebas (tidak beraturan). Lapisan ini merupakan lapisan paling panas dan molekul udara dapat meninggalkan atmosfer sampai ketinggian 3150 km dari muka bumi. Lapisan ini merupakan lapisan yang sangat berbahaya karena lapisan ini terjadi kehancuran meteor dari ruang angkasa.

Susunan Udara

Lapisan udara tersusun oleh masing - masing kelompok zat. Masing - masing zat penyusun, kadarnya dapat berubah - ubah tergantung dari jenis dan intensitas aktifitas hidup manusia dan keadaan cuaca / iklim di bumi. Kelompok zat berupa gas dan rata - rata jumlahnya,

C. Methods

a. Landslide Hazard Determination

Determination of landslide hazard considers several parameters that have influence to
landslide hazard occurence. There are 6 landslide hazard determination parameters:
1. Slope
Slope is the level steepness represented in morphology. In general, the greater level of slopes, the further increase the likelihood of landslides in an area. It is also associated with the force of gravity pulling masses of rock from top to bottom. Higher level of slope will be more easily attracted to the bottom resulting in the occurrence of landslides. The steeper of slope in the area, the more potential of landslides occurence. Slope is the most influential factor to the occurrence of landslides, so it is given a weight value of 30%.
2. Type of Soil
Land is the result of rock weathering, with large sand or clay content, have weak
resistance which has low value of cohesion (c) and inside angle of shear (����. In the rainy season, the soil resistance decrease with increasing water content in the soil. The decrease is due to the soil volume expansion due to water content. Qualitatively, the resilience of the soil can be analyzed through the variable soil texture. Qualitative value of the land as a factor contributing to the landslide occurence that is measured based on the texture.
3. Landuse
Landuse can increase the burden that is borned by the lithology. If the burden borned is greater than the strength of lithology, there will occur landslide. Vegetation also affects the level of slope stability. Some vegetation can increase the stability of the slope because the roots can bind the rock mass making it more compact. But some kind of vegetations that have weak roots can actually reduce the level of slope stability which may impact on the landslides occurrence. Too tightly crops planting can result in heavy on the slopes so increasing the driving force of land on the slopes.
4. Rainfall Intensity
Rainfall is one of the determinants of the level of potential landslide hazard in the study area. If value of rainfall is high, it can be ascertained that the region is a region which has the highest potential for landslides. Basically, to find out the potential danger of landslides used daily rainfall data, but data is hard to find then it is used the average annual rainfall calculated based on its intensity. Because the average annual rainfall effect is not too significant to the occurrence of landslides, it is given a value of 10%.
5. Geology
Geology related to type of rock. The weather rock material is not massive and not stable, so with little influence of the movement will cause shift in position or landslides occurence.The more massive the rock without any cracks or fractures, the more resistant to weathering processes. It means that the rate of weathering of rocks getting smaller so the landslide susceptibility levels also getting smaller. Thus, the physical condition of rocks (the massive and the cracks or fractures presence) is one of the factors causing the occurrence of landslides.
6. Geological Structure (Fault)
Geological structure is a weak zone on a rock or lithology, especially fault zone. Fault that is occurred reduce holding capacity of rocks, thereby reducing the level of resistance of rock. In addition, fault form also became the place of entry of water so weathering and erosion run with more intensive. Rocks that have sufficiently intense structures have greater potential for the occurrence of landslides. The more getting close to the fault zone, the greater of this influence.
Landslide Hazard Map Acquisition àWeighted Overlay Operation Weighted Overlay is a technique for applying a common measurement scale of values to diverse and dissimilar inputs to create an integrated analysis. Geographic problems often
require the analysis of many different factors. In this case, determining the landslide hazard areas means assessing such things as slope, soil type, landuse, rainfall, and geological condition. Additionally, the factors in analysis may not be equally important. It may be that the slope is more important in choosing a site than geological structure. How much more important to decide. Weighted Overlay only accepts integer rasters as input, such as a raster of land use or soil types. Continuous (floating point) rasters must be reclassified as integer before they can be used. Generally, the values of continuous rasters are grouped into ranges, such as for slope, or Euclidean distance outputs. Each range must be assigned a single value before it can be used in the Weighted Overlay tool. The Reclassify tool allows for such rasters to be reclassified. You can either leave the value assigned to each range (but note the range of values to which the new value corresponds) and assign weights to the cell values in the Weighted Overlay dialog box later, or you can assign weights at the time of reclassifying. With the correct evaluation scale chosen, simply add the raster to the Weighted Overlay dialog box.The cells in the raster will already be set according to suitability or preference, risk, or some similarly unifying scale. The output rasters can be weighted by importance and added to produce an output raster. The steps for running weighted overlay are select an evaluation scale, add rasters, set scale values, assign weights to input rasters, assign restricted rule(optional), and run the Weighted Overlay tool. If the tool was used for suitability modeling (to locate suitable areas), higher values generally indicate that a location is more suitable. If the tool was used to generate a cost surface (to find out how much it will cost to travel through the landscape for instance), high values will generally indicate higher travel costs. You must understand the scale values you apply to input rasters so you know what the values in the output raster mean. In the illustration, the two input rasters have been reclassified to a common measurement scale of 1 to 3. Each raster is assigned a percentage influence. The cell values are multiplied by their percentage influence, and the results are added together to create the output raster. For example, consider the top left cell. The values for the two inputs become (2 * 0.75) = 1.5 and (3 * 0.25) = 0.75. The sum of 1.5 and 0.75 is 2.25. Because the output raster from Weighted Overlay is integer, the final value is rounded to 2.

b. Landslide Vulnerability Determination

Determination of landslide vulnerability considers parameter that has potential vulnerability to landslide hazard. The potential vulnerability is determined based on possible locations generate victims when landslide occured. The locations like that are lands that are used as settlement, because settlement areas represent that there are human populations in the area. The human populations can become to be victims if landslide occured. So all of settlement landuse are considered to be the vulnerable area, while all of landuse except settlement are considered to be the no vulnerable area. To operate this mapping using data query operation.

c. Landslide Risk Determination


To produce landslide risk map considers landslide hazard map and landslide vulnerability map. The area has landslide risk when the area is a vulnerable area to landslide hazard and located in landslide hazard area. But if the area is a no vulnerable area to landslide hazard, although located in landslide hazard area, so the area has not landslide risk. And if the area located in no hazard area, either vulnerable area or no vulnerable area to landslide hazard, so the area also has not landslide risk. Risk area has the levels of risk based on the levels of hazard. If the area is a vulnerable area and including in high landslide hazard area, so the
area also including high landslide risk area. To operate this mapping using vector overlaying operation.















E. Conclusions
1. Determination of landslide hazard areas is done by considering the parameters that
influence the landslide occurrence, each of those parameters has a weight factor that
describes the level of influence on the the landslide occurrence.
2. Hazard area mapping using weighted overlay analysis due to the weighted factors and
restricted rules consideration.
3. Result of landslide hazard area mapping shows that the potentially landslide hazard in
study area have percentage of 47.12% of total area.
4. The most extensive high level of landslide hazard is located in the Girimulyo district,
Kulonprogo (with percentage 36.66% of the entire area has high hazard).
5. To determine the risk map, it is needed information about the vulnerability map, the
vulnerability map is a map of the location of settlements which represent exciting
conditions of vulnerable populations to disasters occured.
6. Based on the hazard map and vulnerability map, risk map can be compiled using vector
overlay analysis due to it will be analyzed geometric size, related area measurement.
7. Result of landslide risk area mapping shows that the potentially landslide risk in study area
have percentage of 39.84% of total area.
8. The most extensive high level of landslide risk is also located in the Girimulyo district,
Kulonprogo (with percentage 52.46% of the entire area has high risk).

Teori Lempeng Tektonik Kaitannya Dengan Persebaran Gunung Api Serta Daerah Gempa Bumi di Indonesia

PERSEBARAN GUNUNG BERAPI DI INDONESIA

Pinggiran lempengan India-Australia bertabrakan dengan lempengan Eurasia,lempengan tersebut longsor jauh kedalam bumi.suhu yang sangat tinggi telah melelehkan pinggiran lempeng sehingga menghasilkan magma.Kemudian magma ini muncul melalui retakan di permukaan bumi dan membentuk gunung-gunung api



KAITAN LEMPENG TEKTONIK DENGAN PERSEBARANG G.BERAPI DAN GEMPA BUMI



Lempeng India-Australia sedang didorong ke bawah lempengan Eurasia. proses ini dinamakan penujaman. Tabrakan kedua lempeng tersebut membentuk pegunungan Himalaya, yakni busur gunung api di Indonesia, parit Sunda dan Jawa, serta tanah tinggi Nugini. Australia bagian utara telah didorong ke arah bawah sehinga membentuk teluk Carpentari dan Laut Timor serta Laut Arafuru.



Ketika pinggiran lempengan India-Australia bertabrakan dengan lempengan Eurasia, lempengan tersebut longsor jauh ke dalam bumi, di bawah Indonesia. suhu yang sangat tinggi melelehkan pinggiran lempengan sehingga menghasilkan magma. kemudian magma muncul melalui retakan di permukaan bumi dan membentuk gunung-gunung api. Busur gunung api di Indonesia terbentuk dengan cara seperti itu.


Di indonesia terdapat 400 gunung berapi, tapi yang masih aktif kira-kira 80 gunung saja. gunung-gunung tersebut di golongkan atas 3 barisan :
1. sumatra-jawa-nusa tenggara-sekitar laut banda
2. halmahera dan pulau-pulau disebelah baratnya
3. sulawesi utara-pulau sangihe-pulau mindanao

Ada 3 sistem pokok persebaran pegunungan yang bertemu di Indonesia, yaitu:
1. sistem sunda
sistem ini dimulai dari Arakan Yoma di Myanmar sampai ke kepulauan banda di Maluku dengan panjang kurang lebih 7000 km. terdiri dari 5 busur pegunungan :
a. Busur arakan yoma berpusat di Shan Myanmar
b. Busur Andaman Nicobar berpusat di Mergui
c. Busur Sumatra-Jawaberpusat di anambas
d. Busur Kep. Nusa Tenggara
e. Busur Banda berpusat di Banda

2. sistem busur tepi asia
sistem in dimulai dari Kamsyatku melalui Jepang, filipina, kalimantan, dan Sulawesi. di fillipina busur ini bercabang tiga yaitu:
a. cabang pertama dari pulau lauzon melalui pulau palawan ke kalimantan utara
b. cabang kedua dari pulau Luzon melalui pulau samar ke mindanau, dan kep. Sulu ke kalimantan utara
c. cabang ketiga dari pulau samar ke mindanau dan pulau sangihe ke sulawesi

3. sistem sirkum australia
sistem ini dimulai dari selandia baru melalui keledonia baru ke irian jaya (papua). bagian utara dari sistem ini bercabang dua yakni :
a. cabang pertama dari ekor pulau irian melalui bagian tengah sampai ke pegunungan charleslois di sebelah barat
b. cabang kedua dari kepulauan bismarck melalui pegunungan tepi utara irian ampai ke kepala burung menuju halmahera



Daerah Persebaran Rawan Gempa Bumi Di Indonesia


Indonesia merupakan daerah pertemuan rangkaian Sirkum Mediterania dan rangkaian sirkum Pasifik, dengan proses pembentukan pegunungan yang masih berlangsung. Oleh sebab itu di indonesia banyak terjadi gempa bumi. Pusat gempa di dalam bumi disebut hiposentrum di indonesia terdapat hiposentrum yang dalamnya lebih dari 500km, contohnya di bawah laut flores yang dalamnya kira-kira 720km. Pusat gempa pada permukaan bumi disebut episentrum. Kerusakan terbesar yang diakibatkan oleh gempa terdapat di daerah episentrum, di indonesia episentrum banyak terdapat di bawah permukaan air laut.



Pada peta gempa ada beberapa macam garis yang di kenal yaitu:
1. homosiesta : adalah garis yang menghubungkan tempat-tempat yang dilalui gempa pada waktu yang sama
2. isosiesta : adalah garis yang menghbungkan tempat-tempat yang dilalui oleh gempa yang berintensitas yang sama
3. pleistosiesta : adalah garis yang mengelilingi daerah yang mendapat kerusakan terhebat dalam gempa bumi. pleistoseista ini mengelilingi epsentrum, karena daerah sekitar episentrum mengalami kerusakan yang paling parah. isoseista yang pertama juga merupakan pleistoseista.

Proses perambatan gempa bumi melalui tiga macam getaran yaitu:
1. getaran longitudinal atau merapat-meregang
Getaran ini berasal dari hiposentrum dan bergerak malalui dalam bumi. kecepatan getaran ini besar sekali, yaitu 7-14 km/jam. getran ini datang paling awal dan disebut getaran primer, getaran ini belum menimbulkan kerusakan.

2. getaran transfersal atau naik turun
Getaran ini berasal dari hiposentrum dan bergerak melalui bagian dalam bumi. kecepatan getaran ini antara 4-7 km/jam. getaran ini datang setelah getaran longitudinal dan merupakan getaran pendahuluan kedua dan disebut getaran sekunder,getaran ini belum menimbulkan kerusakan.

3. getaran gelombang panjang
Getaran ini berasal dari episentrum dan bergerak melalui permukaan bumi. kecepatan getaran ini antara 3,8-3,9 km/jam. getaran ini datang paling akir, tetapi merupakan getaran pokok,getaran ini yang menimbulkan kerusakan.

Gempa bumi ada yang mempunyai kekuatan besar dan ada yang berkekuatan kecil. dilihat dari intensitasnya ada dua macam gempa yaitu :
1. makroseisme yaitu gempa yang intensitasnya besar dan dapat diketahui tanpa alat
2. mikroseisme yaitu gempa yang intensitasnya kecil sekali dan hanya dapat diketahui dengan menggunakan alat saja.


Menurut sebab terjadinya gempa ada tiga macam yaitu:

1. gempa runtuhan atau gempa guguran
terjadi karena gugurnya atu runtuhnya tanah. daerah yang terjadi gempa guguran adalah daerah tambang yang berbentuk terowongan, pegunungan kapur, atau lubang. umumnya gempa runtuhan terjadidalam skala kecildan terjadi dalam wilayah lokal.




2. gempa vulkanis
terjadi karena meletunya gunung api. jika gunung api akan meletus, timbullah tekanan gas dari dalam sumbat kawah. tekanan ini menyebabkan terjadinya getaran yang disebut gempa bumi. gempa ini hanya terdapat disekitar gunung api yang meletus. bahaya gempa bumi ini lebih besar dari pada gempa bumi runtuhan, namun lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan gempa tektonik.





3. gempa tektonis
terjadi karena gerak lempeng tektonik dan merupakan akibat dari gerak orogenetik. daerah yang seringkali mengalami gempa ini adalah daerah pegunungan lipatan muda, yaitu daerah rangkaian mediterania dan rangkaian sirkum pasifik. bahaya dari gempa ini dapat besar sekali karena lapisan bumi dapat mengalamilipatan, retakan, patahan atau bergeser. karena gempa ini selalu mengakibatkan pergeseran muka bumi, maka gempa ini disebut juga gempa dislokasi.
