Abstract

The intensive agricultural activities in the Cilongkrang Sub-Watershed are causing environmental changes that can lead to various disasters. This study aims to map the spatial distribution of multiple hazards, including flash floods, erosion, and landslides. Three hazards selected because the critical condition of Cilongkrang Sub-Watershed as an upstream area caused the area to be prone to those hazards. The flash flood hazard model was created using the Flash Flood Potential Index (FFPI) method, which uses land use, slope, vegetation cover, and soil texture. The erosion hazard model was created using the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) method with parameters such as erosivity, erodibility, slope length factor, crop management index, and soil conservation index. The landslide hazard model was created using the Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) method, which uses slope, landform, land use, and soil texture. The results showed that the dominant flash flood-prone areas were in the medium class of 1.556 hectares, the erosion tended to be very low, which was 2.699,5 tons/ha/year, and The Argapura Sub-District encompasses multiple regions that are highly susceptible to landslides.
