Here, we assess land use/land cover (LULC) transitions over the last 30 years in Jakarta, Indonesia. Land cover maps were prepared for 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020 using seven categories of Landsat satellite image: bare land, built-up, cropland, green area, mangrove, water body, and pond. LULC changes were assessed through intensity analyses at the interval and transition levels. LULC changes were initially rapid (1990–1995) and then more gradual (1995–2000, 2000–2005, and 2005–2010). Unlike in previous intervals, annual changes were uniformly distributed over time in 2010–2015 and 2015–2020. Driven by high population and economic growth, built-up land was identified as an active gainer in all intervals except 2010–2015. Alongside built-up areas, cropland was the main supplier of other categories, including bare land, pond, built-up, and green areas. The largest transition area occurred in pond and green areas during 2005–2010 and in built-up land during 2015–2020. High demand for built-up land was observed in land changes driven by high population growth triggered by economic necessity. Economic and population growth exhibited a positive correlation (R² = 0.78, t = 9.996). This study elucidates spatiotemporal LULC transition patterns over 30 years in a rapidly growing city.

New Yogyakarta International Airport (NYIA) is being constructed in Temon Sub District, Kulonprogo District. It lies on 587.2 ha area in the southern part of Java Island coastal area. Many areas of Kulonprogro coastal area are used for aquaculture of vanname shrimp. In that case, the aquaculture land needs to be cleared for the airport construction necessity and requires compensation. The value of the compensation needs to be right calculated by both sides, regarding the aquaculture land are local community assets. This study uses spatial analysis and visual interpretation. Whereas, the calculation of the acquisition value and income capital value uses Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method. The result shows the area of aquaculture land which impacted to be cleared is 83 ha, means decreasing of shrimp ponds area in Temon Sub District, Kulonprogo District. The calculation of acquisition value for airport development indicates higher value than the income from the aquaculture activity. The results mean the aquaculture landlords do not incur losses due to the airport development project. These findings can be used for local government and related stakeholders to formulate a policy of aquaculture relocation and to estimate projection for aquaculture land suitability in Yogyakarta coastal area.

This study aimed to determine the composition and catch rate of folded cube fish pots in the seawater of the Tuban Regency. The research was conducted in December 2018 located in the Sokorejo, Tuban Regency, using 30 units of folded cube fish pots with a size of 50x50x50 cm2. The cube folded trap installation was done in 10 times of catch trip and installed in the morning. The catches were collected, identified, and measured for their individual length and weight. The crabs were measured for the length and width of their carapace. The catching result of folded cube fish pots was classified into five types which are fish group (48.97%), crabs group (29.59 %), swimmer crabs (7.1%), Land hermit crab (6.12%), and mud snails (8.16%). The result showed that Two-spined Arm Swimming Crab (Charybdis anisodon) was the most dominant type of catch equal to 29.59% of the total catch, while other types of catch that were quite common are Pig Faced Leather Jacket (Paramonacanthus choirocephalus) (9.18%), and Crescent Pearch (Terapon jarbua) (8.16%). The average catch rate for folding cube was 32%/trip with a weighted average catch of 436.58 gr/trip.

Fishing pot is an environmentally friendly fishing gear that has been used by fishermen in Indonesia with all kinds of shapes and sizes. This study aimed to determine the composition of the catches using a modified cube folding trap and tube folding trap, as well as provide design information material to develop environmentally-friendly fishing gear. The research was conducted in Socorejo Village, Jenu District, Tuban Regency, East Java, in October-December 2018. The method of this research used experimental fishing with 30 units of cube folding trap and 30 units of tube folding trap. Traps were operated long lines at 10 different coordinate points and the results were analyzed further using the T-test with 95% of confidence level. The catch composition of cube and tube folding traps shows the largest catches in percentage are swimmer crab as much 65% and 57%. The value of catches composition cube and tube folding trap is 0.169 and 0.227 which indicate that cube folding trap is more selective. Based on the results of T-test, total and weight of the catches between cube and tube folding trap show no significant difference. The results conclude that the cube folding trap is more effective with more catches.
