The Cipatujah area is part of the Southern Mountains of West Java which has diverse and unevenly distributed lithology. The lithology that dominates the Cipatujah and surrounding areas originate from the volcanic activities such as lava, volcanic breccias, tuffs, and intrusions. While the sedimentary rocks that compose them are limestone and sandstone rocks. The lithology that dominates the southern region is carbonate sedimentary rocks, which are represented by sandstone units. In the northern part, the lithologies are dominated by deposition results volcanic activity consists of various materials originating from andesitic lava units that extend to the east of the research area, while the volcanic breccia deposited from north to the west of the research area. There is a tuff unit layer above the volcanic breccia to the south. In the eastern area deposited carbonate rock units that form the karst landscape. Lithology characterization and determination of rock units in the Cipatujah area were carried out using image processing techniques from color composite bands from Landsat-8 (OLI) data. Geological analysis using SWIR-2 (7), SWIR-1 (6), and blue (2) composite bands and lithology using near-infrared (5) composites SWIR-1 (6), and SWIR-2 (7) bands. Then the analysis results are examined with geological data from the mapping that has been done before. Approach to band composite analysis by verifying geological data taken directly to help improve the identification and validation of better and more measured lithological distribution.
Current sustainability assessment methods are mostly disseminated at global or national scales. However, the sustainability criteria often fail to capture many ecological characteristics that are important to the local population. This article aims to understand the importance of ecological criteria for sustainability by reviewing the literature on issues related to the implementation of ecological criteria on global, national, and local scales. This study uses qualitative content analysis by examining secondary data searches such as journal articles and research reports regarding the topics. We use NVIVO software for theme coding. We also use a case study in the oil palm plantation in Belitung Island and the Indonesian palm oil sector to see how global and national ecological criteria for sustainable palm oil were designed and whether it is adaptable to the local context. This study reveals three main themes namely the function of ecological criteria and indicators, the adaptation of global and regional criteria, and the importance of local characteristics and value. We concluded that although global and national criteria for sustainable palm oil have been established, the characteristics of local biodiversity and social value and its prioritization are needed to ensure sustainability reached the lowest scale.
Environmental damage caused by industrial development is not only a result of industrial activities, but also a result of the demands of human life which require humans to adapt to the environment and all its changes through education and technology. In this case, a change in human behavior in managing natural resources is needed as a solution to these problems. Environmental damage in the PT. X Bojenegara - Banten, which is engaged in the oil and gas industry is still happening. Most of the causes of environmental damage in the region of PT. X such as air pollution, water, and soil as a result of the behavior of workers who don’t have an attitude of environmental awareness in the work. Several factors, namely environmental awareness and Industrial Hygiene program used to see the connection with the behavior of workers at PT. X. This research was conducted at PT. X Bojonegara, Banten in February 2015 to March 2015 by using a quantitative approach. Data were collected by using questionnaires, field observation and in-depth interviews. There are 79 respondents and 5 informants which were analyzed by univariate, bivariate and multivariate statistics. The result shown that there are any relationship between environmental awareness and Industrial Hygiene program with worker behavior (R = 0.292). The correlation value of 0.292 indicates that the relationship between environmental awareness and Industrial Hygiene program with worker behavior is moderate. The conclusion from these results shows that the higher the environmental awareness and the more understanding of the Industrial Hygiene program, the better the behavior of the workers.
This study was conducted to compare the performance of three different spatial analysis models: Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW), Ordinary Kriging, and Regularized Spline interpolation technique to determine the best fit model representing Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) in West Java Province, Indonesia. The three models are commonly used in spatial visualization, but have different calculation methods. The calculations were performed using available formulas while the spatial modeling was conducted using the algorithms in GIS software. Meanwhile, the accuracy of the spatial model and factual calculation was determined through the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The results showed differences for both spatial distribution and maximum and minimum values for each model. However, IDW was observed to be the model which approaches the factual value of the PGA calculation as indicated by its RMSE value of 0.772352 in comparison with the 7.169879 (Ordinary Kriging) and 1.140802 (Regularized Spline).
The lembang fault is active and can potentially trigger earthquakes in the West Bandung Regency area and its surroundings. The lembang fault has two segments, namely the western and eastern segments, with a movement of 3 mm/year. The Ngamprah Raya Special School (SLB) is a school for children with special needs located in the Lembang fault area in the western segment. This condition causes SLB Ngamprah Raya to be in an earthquake-prone area. One of those affected is highly vulnerable to earthquakes, namely children, even more vulnerable, namely children with special needs or inclusion. Children with special needs need education regarding the Lembang fault earthquake and earthquake disaster mitigation. Earthquake disaster mitigation learning based on fun games needs to be done for Children with Special Needs. The purpose of this study is to utilize fun game media for earthquake disaster mitigation education for children with special needs. The method used is participatory observation involving accompanying teachers and students. The sample used is accidental sampling. The study results show that the fun game of snakes and ladders based on disaster mitigation is effective and efficient for children with special needs with mental retardation. In its implementation, game time and participants must be considered and limited to achieve learning. Students get developmental achievements as expected by going through three cycles. Each cycle is carried out with an effective and efficient snake and ladders game adjustment scheme. Learners are more likely to be able to capture interactive material. Snakes and ladders fun game can be an alternative solution in developing earthquake disaster mitigation learning media for mental retardation.Keywords: Fun game, Disaster Mitigation, Children with Special Needs.
