21.01.2022 THESIS ABSTRACT Rainwater Harvesting to Increase Freshwater Carrying Capacity on small island (Study Case : Pramuka Island) PUGAR SEPTIA GIRDAYANTO... Student ID: S5211895 Split Site DUAL DEGREE MASTER PROGRAM 2020 REGIONAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION HASANUDDIN UNIVERSITY and GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY, Rainwater Harvesting to Increase Freshwater Carrying Capacity on Pramuka Island, Indonesia Student: Pugar Girdayanto, Supervisors: Professor Bofu Yu, Dr Peter Davey, and Associate Professor Ahmad Munir Email: [email protected] Exec Summary Pramuka Island is a small Indonesian island with an area of 16,73 Ha. However, the island is covered with a dense settlement and inhabited by 1.715 people with rapid population growth and increasing tourists visits every year (Cahyadi, 2015). As a result, there is a high demand for freshwater, this usage exploits groundwater as the primary source of freshwater. Freshwater availability in Pramuka Island has declined significantly in recent years. This is because the catchment area of rainwater ihas decreased as the growing population in Pramuka Island has developed green natural areas with new infrastructure like buildings, concrete pavements and asphalt roads. As a result, rainwater infiltration to the water table is hindered, and the groundwater reserves fail to recover. Research conducted by Cahyadi (2015) indicated that groundwater in Pramuka Island is below the minimum standard of drinking water. In addition, the progressive seawater intrusion has degraded the quality of local groundwater and a technology to remove salt, called reverse osmosis, is also not feasible economically. This research will review the effectiveness of the recently installed rainwater harvesting system as a solution to support freshwater carrying capacity in Pramuka Island. The research will analyse several measures to improve freshwater carrying capacity, based on the 'water balance calculation' between the freshwater supply that could be acquired from this rainwater harvesting system and the potential freshwater demands due to increased consumption by residents, tourism and other users. However, the question remains Will the rainwater harvesting meet the increasing freshwater demand from emerging tourism? More precise data will be collected in this study to forecast increasing demand overall for the island's future water supply. Keywords : carrying capacity; freshwater scarcity; small island; and rainwater harvest

ABSTRACT It can be considered that an urban heat island is a by-product of urbanisation. Urban heat island can be categorized into surface urban heat island (SUHI) and atmospheric urban heat island (AUHI). This study focuses on SUHI and aims to disclose the characteristic or urban heat island in Makassar City. This preliminary information is believed to be useful to help planners in formulating better urban policy, such as determining the proper area or urban configuration for future development with the least impact to UHI increase. Keywords: Land Surface Temperature, Remote Sensing, Makassar City.

Lubuk Larangan: Indigenous and Local Knowledge (ILK) as an Alternative Model to Protect Rivers Biodiversity in North Sumatra, Indonesia Student Name : Boboy Andika Harahap Student ID : s5211989... Supervisor: Dr Peter Davey Exec Summary The sustainability of freshwater ecosystems and their services is a Target of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 15 (UN SDG, 2018). Recent reports show that globally only 43.23% of important sites for freshwater biodiversity are covered by protected areas and Indonesia has only 35.49% protected, which is well below the world’s average (UN SDG Tracker, 2019). This trend indicates a demand on other alternatives for amplifying the number of freshwater protected areas. In preventing unsustainable environments, these society have two options; the application of advanced science or indigenous and local knowledge (ILK). Recently, The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) recommended the significance of ILK as a basis in managing the biodiversity and ecosystem (Thaman et al., 2013). There is ample evidence of this important practice with positive benefits for the environment (Thaman et al., 2013), and in a many cultures ILK has been a part of local custom (Díaz et al., 2015). This research, using a 'strategy of diffusion', will demonstrate show How Lubuk Larangan can fit as an alternative model to protect rivers biodiversity in North Sumatra, Indonesia.

03.01.2022 Environmental Community Volunteering (ECV) working 'with' multiple stakeholders is the first step in educating people and gaining hands on skills for more sustainable environments. CLEAN UP AUSTRALIA 2020 Clean Up Australia Day participants, Bulwer Wrecks ... Griffith University Environmental Science Masters of Env students and executive members of Moreton Island Protection Committee (MIPC) spent Friday, 28th February Sunday, 1st March cleaning up parts of Moreton Island. On Friday, MIPC members reorganized seedling tables at the North Point Nursery after many plants died due to water supply problems with the automatic sprinkler system. Friday/Saturday 28/29 Feb A clean up around The Cape by Griffith students on Saturday saw 12 bags of rubbish collected from the beach at Harpers and The Fingers. Much of the rubbish in difficult accessible rocky areas of The Cape is marine debris from trawlers and ships. Asparagus Fern and Prickly Pear was also removed from Bulwer by students. Sunday, 1st March Clean Up Australia Day saw 37 participants register at Bulwer Wrecks as part of the national program. This year was the 30th anniversary of Clean Up Australia. Since 1990, 17.7 million people have participated. It was good to see Bulwer locals Belinda Henzell and Troy, Rhonda and Sophie Darben take part. Almost half a tonne of rubbish was collected from the beach, fore dunes and around Bulwer Township. This included plastic and glass bottles, plastic bags, cans, cigarette butts, polystyrene, fishing line, food packaging, a fridge, fridge motor, mattress, sheet metal and steel pipes. Griffith University vehicles took the rubbish to the Waste Transfer Station. Bulwer Progress and Social Association generously assisted with payment of accommodation for the students and provided lunch at the Bulwer Fire Station. Thanks should go to John Kluba for access to the Fire Station; Karen Kerr, Rod Holloway, Jan and Rob Noble, and Dick Craig for their work in keeping the volunteers fed and watered; and Dr Peter Davey for coordinating the students. The combined effort of all involved has made a difference to Bulwer and Moreton Island. Thanks to MICAT Moreton Island Adventures for assisting with subsidised return fares.
