South Kalimantan is one of the provinces in Indonesia which has a high risk of flood disasters seen from its physical condition, which geographically is mostly located below sea level. In 2021, 11 out of a total of 13 districts and cities in South Kalimantan were affected by flooding on a large scale, which caused tens of thousands of residents to suffer losses and even lost family members. IBFWS (Impact Base Forecast and Warning Services) is present as the latest innovation from the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency as an impact-based weather forecast information service. To determine the accuracy of the IBFWS service information, it is necessary to validate the prediction results issued by IBFWS with the actual situation. By using spatial analysis methods, it is hoped that it can describe which areas are potentially affected by flooding and continued with the calculation of the contingency table so that the accuracy value of IBFWS is obtained in predicting areas potentially affected by flooding in South Kalimantan. IBFWS validation results in predicting areas potentially affected by flooding in South Kalimantan during the rainy season range between 0.85 – 1.00 which mean 85% - 100% the IBFWS prediction results are correct, during the transition season in general is 0.77 which mean 77% the IBFWS prediction results are correct, and during the dry season it ranges between 0.92 – 1.00 which mean 92% - 100% the IBFWS prediction results are correct.
The impact of the mining process including the emergence of Total Suspended Solids (TSS), either directly or indirectly can disrupt the life of aquatic biota, damage environmental sustainability, and threaten the welfare of humans who depend on the water for various daily purposes. To reduce the burden of pollution on water bodies due to coal mining waste, one of the technologies often chosen is the Wastewater Management Plant (WWTP) system, which generally involves the use of settling ponds. This study aims to analyze the total suspended solids in the settling pond, analyze the total suspended solid capacity, and compile recommendations for total suspended solid management efforts to meet environmental quality standards. The total suspended solids (TSS) values in October and November measurements at the inlet were 339.00 mg/l and 712.00 mg/l while the outlet decreased to 42.50 mg/l and 55.00 mg/l. The total suspended solid (TSS) value during the measurement period of January – December 2023 shows that the TSS value at the inlet and outlet for 12 months shows a value below the quality standard. The first settling pond with a capacity of 15,000 m, and the second to sixth settling ponds have a capacity of 3,000 m3 each. To maintain the capacity of the settling pond at around 60% of its maximum capacity, the volume of TSS deposited ranges from 9,000 m3, while in the second to sixth settling ponds, the volume of TSS deposited each ranges from 1,800 m3.
Hiyung Village is part of Tapin Tengah District, Tapin Regency, South Kalimantan. Besides rice, superior agricultural commodities in this village is Hiyung Cayenne Pepper. High demand and prices have caused more and more cayenne pepper to be cultivated. Hiyung Cayenne Pepper Cultivation is expected to increase farmers' income, so efforts are needed so that agricultural activities can continue. The sustainability of agricultural can be maintained if they are managed well. Appropriate management actions can be implemented if the soil and land characteristics are known. Soil is one of the things that really determines the success of an agricultural business, especially the availability of nutrients. Analysis of the secondary mineral composition of soil (sand) is very important in order to determine the nutrient reserves in the soil. Information about nutrient reserves in the soil can be used as a basis for good soil management so that it meets plant needs and does not cause damage to the soil and the environment. The specific aim of this research is to determine the composition of primary minerals (sand) to identify nutrient reserves in the soil. This research was carried out using a survey method to obtain data or information on soil and land characteristics and current management. Observations and soil sampling in the field were carried out at 5 locations with a distance of 1 km between locations. Sand mineral analysis uses a polarizing microscope to determine the mineral composition. Primary minerals (sand) at the research location are dominated by rock fragments and quartz. The weatherable mineral content is very small so the potential for nutrient reserves is very small.
