The rapid development of Yogyakarta has made city development increase. This construction continues to expand the reach of impervious surfaces. As a result, the surface runoff and maximum discharge have increased, overflowing up to urban drainage. This study aimed to analyze the maximum discharge of the watershed based on design storms with 2, 5, 10, and 25-year return periods, used for flood control considerations. The urban flood was modelled using HEC-HMS. The results showed, the contribution of discharge flow in each segment is influenced by the dominance of land use, in which the segment dominated by dense settlements has a high contribution to the maximum discharge. The flow contribution is due to the high CN value which corresponds to the high surface runoff.
Sempor Reservoir is used for irrigation, domestic, industrial, and tourism purposes, as well as hydroelectric power plant and inland fish farming in pens. The land use in its catchment area is mainly plantation (74%) and, followed by, rice field (8.13%), dry farmland (7.74%), and settlement (5.69%). Agricultural activities, both in irrigated and rainfed farming systems, apply fertilizers to maintain crop quality, but when these substances washed away by surface runoff and transported through the drainage system, they end up increasing nutrients in water bodies. Excess nutrients like nitrate and phosphate induce a rapid growth of algae and aquatic plants, disrupting the ecosystems. This study was designed to identify the spatial distribution of nitrate and phosphate in Sempor Reservoir by field observation, water sampling, and laboratory analysis. The water was collected from 25 sampling points distributed at the outlet (close to the spillway), in the middle and the upstream of the reservoir, and around the fish pens (near the check dam). The results showed that nitrate was present on the reservoir water surface and at a depth of 1 meter at varying concentrations, i.e., <0.01-0.36 mg/L. The phosphate levels were <0.01-0.31 mg/L on the surface and <0.01-4.78 mg/L at a depth of 1 meter. The upstream had very high nitrate concentrations both on the surface and at a depth of 1 meter, while the outlet had very high content only at a depth of 1 meter. As for phosphate, very high concentrations were identified in the middle surface of the reservoir (near the pier) and at 1m depth around the fish pens.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
