Ecological design of constructed wetlands in cold mountainous region: from literature to experience

Implementation of a Comprehensive Eco-Riparian Concept to Landscape Design of Water Source Area in Macari Village, Batu City

“…The distribution of this vegetation can be seen in Figure 6. As for the vegetation in the buffer zone, there are agricultural plant vegetation, including tomatoes (Solanum Lycopersicum), types of shallots (Allium Cepa), various types of chilies (Capsicum Frutescens), lettuce (Lactuca Sativa), mustard greens (Brassica Rapa) (Stentella et al, 2023). can be cultivated in aquaponics, hydroponics, or through conventional soil media.…”

“…Based on the results of previous literature studies in Table 1, it is possible to synthesize the design criteria for a comprehensive eco-riparian concept from a theoretical and practical perspective. The aim of the eco-riparian concept that will be applied later is wetland restoration and construction activities, as stated (Spieles, 2022;Stentella et al, 2023;Sun et al, 2019). Strategy and design methods are carried out simultaneously through collaborative activities with the community around the location, as stated (Khatulistiyawati et al, 2021;Maulana et al, 2022), carrying out data collection and analysis techniques, as well as synthesizing the design process as stated (Daisy et al, 2020;Prastiyo et al, 2018).…”

Meanwhile, the design criteria were elaborated based on previous research results (Spieles, 2022;Stentella et al, 2023;Zhang, 2022). Then, for translating the design criteria into a design, the digitization method is used, as was done by (Daisy et al, 2020).…”

“…The water sources in the Batu City area must be appropriately conserved so that they are not polluted before flowing into the watershed flow. In this case, we can review research on constructing wetland ecology in mountainous regions (Stentella et al, 2023). This research discusses several technical efforts to improve the ecological quality of land with several mechanisms and cultivating specific vegetation that can bind nitrates in water, create a terraced pond system in which the decontamination process is carried out, and protect water bodies from water seepage from contaminant areas.…”
