Abstract

One of the areas in South Kalimantan that is prone to land fires is the Banjarbaru area, especially on peatlands. The fire in Banjarbaru is important because of the vital object of Syamsudin Noor Airport. Mapping of fire vulnerability was important for the Banjarbaru area, which had repeated fires throughout the year. The objective of the study was to analyze the vulnerability of forest and land fires in Banjarbaru, South Kalimantan Province. This study used Landsat 8 Oli Tirs imagery to obtain NDVI data and land cover maps from INA-Geoportal. The analysis of data used the scoring and overlay of the two maps. The level of vulnerability was dominated by the high vulnerability. The high level of vulnerability in Cempaka District was 81.9 %, in Banjarbaru Selatan District was around 99.5 %, in Banjarbaru Utara District was around 95.3 %, in Landasan Ulin District was around 94.1 % and in Lianganggang District was around 88.9 %. Land cover in the form of agriculture, plantations, and shrubs with moderate-high density caused the land to be more prone to fires.

Summary

Pendahuluan

Kebakaran hutan dan lahan menjadi penyebab utama ancaman terhadap ekosistem hutan. Efek negatif dari kebakaran hutan dan lahan adalah pemanasan global, kesehatan manusia (Harrison et al, 2009; Sahani et al, 2014), kehilangan atau pengurangan keanekaragaman hayati, vegetasi, tanah (Certini, 2005), hidrologi dan kabut lintas batas. Kebakaran hutan dan lahan dapat dideteksi melalui citra satelit berdasarkan data hotspot (Razali et al, 2010; Sitanggang et al, 2013). Dampak dari kebakaran hutan dan lahan terhadap kehidupan manusia dan lingkungan sekitarnya adalah terjadinya penurunan kualitas lingkungan, dan berpengaruh terhadap kehidupan sosial, budaya dan ekonomi masyarakat (Jawad et al, 2015). Kebakaran ini juga berpengaruh terhadap kehidupan flora dan fauna, seperti terjadinya penurunan keanekaragaman hayati, dan terjadi kerusakan pada lingkungan flora dan fauna (Endrawati et al, 2018). Faktor manusia terjadi akibat adanya pembukaan lahan untuk perkebunan atau pertanian oleh masyarakat ataupun perusahaan
