Persebaran Bencana Di Indonesia #kumer Geografi klas XI.

Summary

The video discusses the frequent disasters faced by Indonesia, attributed to its location in the Pacific Ring of Fire and the Alpine belt, alongside a tropical climate. These factors lead to various hazards, including earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, landslides, floods, droughts, and wildfires. The presentation highlights specific high-risk areas and emphasizes the importance of awareness and preparedness for these natural disasters, illustrating the diverse geographical and climatic influences on disaster occurrence in the country.

Takeaways

• 🌍 Indonesia is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, which is prone to volcanic and seismic activity.
• ⛰️ The Alpine Belt also contributes to Indonesia's high disaster risk, with active mountain ranges impacting the region.
• 🌧️ Indonesia's tropical climate results in high rainfall, leading to hydrometeorological disasters like floods and landslides.
• ⚡ Indonesia is situated at the convergence of three tectonic plates, increasing the likelihood of earthquakes and tsunamis.
• 🏖️ High-risk areas for earthquakes include western Sumatra, southern Java, Bali, and parts of Sulawesi and Papua.
• 🌊 Tsunami risks are significant along coastal regions, particularly in western Sumatra and southern Java.
• 🌋 The distribution of volcanoes in Indonesia places many areas at high risk for eruptions, especially in Sumatra, Java, and Bali.
• 🏔️ Landslides are common in regions with rugged terrain, particularly in the Bukit Barisan and parts of Java and Sumatra.
• 🚱 Drought-prone areas include eastern Nusa Tenggara and parts of Java, particularly during dry seasons.
• 🔥 Forest fires are prevalent in Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Papua, often exacerbated by land use practices.

Q & A

What is the primary reason Indonesia experiences frequent natural disasters?

Indonesia is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, which is an area with a high level of tectonic activity, including many active volcanoes and earthquake zones.

How many active volcanoes are there in Indonesia?

There are approximately 139 active volcanoes in Indonesia.

What is the Alpine Belt, and how does it relate to Indonesia's disaster risk?

The Alpine Belt is a zone of active mountain ranges that stretches from the Alps in Europe to the Himalayas and includes parts of Indonesia, contributing to its high seismic and volcanic activity.

How does Indonesia's tropical climate contribute to natural disasters?

Indonesia's tropical climate results in high rainfall, which can lead to hydrometeorological disasters like floods and landslides.

What geological factors contribute to earthquakes in Indonesia?

Indonesia is situated at the convergence of three tectonic plates: the Eurasian, Indian-Australian, and Pacific plates, making it highly susceptible to earthquakes.

Which areas in Indonesia are at the highest risk of experiencing earthquakes?

The areas at the highest risk include the western coast of Sumatra, southern Java, Bali, and parts of Nusa Tenggara and Sulawesi.

What are the primary areas at risk for tsunamis in Indonesia?

The high-risk areas for tsunamis are the western coast of Sumatra, the southern coast of Java, and coastal regions of Bali and Nusa Tenggara.

What contributes to the risk of landslides in Indonesia?

Landslides are primarily influenced by Indonesia's rugged topography and heavy rainfall, especially in regions like the Bukit Barisan mountain range.

What regions in Indonesia are most prone to flooding?

Regions with low elevation, such as central and eastern Sumatra, northern Java, and parts of Kalimantan, are most prone to flooding.

What are the main causes of drought in Indonesia?

Drought in Indonesia is often caused by irregular rainfall patterns and climatic events like El Niño, affecting areas such as Nusa Tenggara and parts of Java.

How do forest fires relate to natural disaster risk in Indonesia?

Forest fires are a significant risk, particularly in regions with peatland forests in Sumatra and Kalimantan, exacerbated by dry conditions and human activities.

What role do tropical cyclones play in Indonesia's disaster landscape?

Tropical cyclones can cause severe weather conditions, leading to floods and landslides, especially along the southern coasts of Java and Nusa Tenggara.
