    Spatial Differentiation of the Land and Nutrient Footprints for Kampala: Implications for Urban Food Sustainability

    by Joyfred Asaba, Paul Isolo Mukwaya , Shauib Lwasa, Yazidhi Bamutaze, Fredrick Omolo
    Forum Geografi2024138-152DOI: 10.23917/forgeo.2421
    Abstract Rapid urban growth, together with an increase in urban food demand and rural-urban food flows, effectively transfer the urban footprint to the surrounding cities. In Uganda, where fast urban growth is evident, data on the resultant foodprint is sparse. To bridge this gap in knowledge, this paper quantitatively analyses the flows of the rural-urban cooking banana (matooke) to Kampala, Uganda, and the embedded land and…Read More

    by Francine Hematang, Agustinus Murdjoko , Francina Kesaulija, Jonni Marwa, Antoni Ungirwalu
    Forum Geografi2024189-202DOI: 10.23917/forgeo.4870
    Abstract Land cover is crucial for island management, but the lack of accessible and high-resolution remote sensing data has reduced investigations on small islands, including land cover identification. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate land cover using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology, providing very high-resolution images. Classification and delineation were conducted using automatic segmentation followed by manual…Read More

    Assessment of Low-Cost Tide Gauges to Meet GLOSS 1-cm Precision and Accuracy Standards: A Case Study on Pramuka Island, Indonesia

    by Zulfikar Adlan Nadzir, Irdam Adil
    Forum Geografi2024222-230DOI: 10.23917/forgeo.5182
    Abstract The expansion of the tide gauge network along the coasts is essential for better monitoring of sea-level dynamics. Owing to climate change, the urgency has been exacerbated, especially during the last two decades. However, densification a challenging task because of the lack of affordability of the sensor, especially in the Global South. Further, the precision and accuracy requirements of 1-cm imposed by the Global Sea Level…Read More

    by Sudaryatno Sudaryatno, Josaphat Tetuko Sri Sumantyo, Taufik Hery Purwanto, Muhammad Falakh Al Akbar, Amelia Rizki Gita, Osmar Shalih
    Forum Geografi2024257-265DOI: 10.23917/forgeo.5436
    Abstract The southern coastal area of Java has a high risk of tsunamis. Additionally, the presence of rivers flowing in the south of Java Island poses a greater tsunami threat because these rivers can act as "toll roads" for tsunami waves to enter the land. Therefore, this study was conducted in the coastal area of the Opak-Progo watershed to determine the level of tsunami hazards and plan effective evacuation routes. The hazard map…Read More
