Abstract

The north coastal Java located in the West Java, especially in Cirebon, Indramayu, and Subang, occurs loss and forming new land by abrasion and accretion processes. Observation using satellite imagery can be used as an initial stage to determine the distribution of abrasion and accretion around the north coastal area. Observation of land changes was assigned using Landsat imagery from 1978 to 2020. The result shows that inland change was controlled by abrasion and accretion. It is occurred in Indramayu and Subang, especially in several areas around large rivers e.g. Cipunegara and Cimanuk Rivers. Estuary changes in the Cipunegara and Cimanuk Rivers were controlled by the high flux sediment deposition of the river mouths affecting the new land forming due to the accretion process. Monitoring through Landsat satellite imagery on the Cipunagara River from 1978 to 2020 shows that there was 205 Ha of new land. Remote sensing analysis in the Cimanuk River area shows that the estuary line from 1978 to 2020 experienced accretion or new land forming for 629 Ha.
