Abstract
The study aims to identify how to manage coastal zones, the scope, rationality of coastal development, challenges, frameworks, environmental impacts, and future trends in Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar. This research is based on information from the scientific literature and secondary data. The results of the study inform that currently integrated coastal management in Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar is not mainly used for coastal development strategies. Therefore, this coastal area requires integrated management to build reciprocal interactions between coastal communities, policies, the environment to achieve sustainable development. This coastal zone has a diversity of natural resources, minerals and tourism potential and much more to explore, therefore Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar need to take roles and initiatives in marine governance. Judging from the results of the trend that the status of coastal management in Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar has development opportunities that can reduce coastal poverty and contribute to local economic development.
Highlights
The coastal zones of Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar are geomorphologically and hydrologically dominated by the Krueng Aceh river system and the Malacca Strait in the north and the Indian Ocean in the west
The coastal zones of Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar consist of 11 sub-districts that are directly adjacent to the sea and only 21 sub-districts that are not directly connected to the sea
Intensive literature review related to coastal demographic statistics, coastal development status, coastal management approaches, coastal resources, anthropogenic impacts related to coastal zones, coastal government surveys
Summary
The coastal zones of Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar are geomorphologically and hydrologically dominated by the Krueng Aceh river system and the Malacca Strait in the north and the Indian Ocean in the west. Banda Ache City and Aceh Besar coastal zone (Figure 1) covers an area of 3,030 km or about 5% of the total area of Aceh Province. The coastal zones of Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar consist of 11 sub-districts that are directly adjacent to the sea and only 21 sub-districts that are not directly connected to the sea. Geographical features, the coastal zones of these two areas consist of two parts, namely the western zone and the northern zone [2]. The western region is known as the hilly coast consisting of rocky areas and sandy beaches. Climate change-driven events such as sea level rise, storm surges, coastal inundation, salinity intrusion and soil erosion are major natural disasters [7, 8, 9]
