Effect of Land Use Change to the Increasing Land-Based Emission and Urban Heat Island Phenomenon in Bandung City

摘要

In order to fulfill the needs of built areas in Bandung encouraged land use changes in several areas. This land use change is one of the contributing factors to the increasing levels of carbon emissions in the air, which will have a further impact on the increasing urban temperature and Urban Heat Island phenomenon. Thus, this study was aimed to identify the effect of land use change on the increase of land-based emissions and temperatures in Bandung, as well as the trend in the future. This study utilized stock difference analysis method and the value of land-based emissions by using simple regression method. In addition, this study identified the effect of increase in emissions to the increase in temperature. The equation model produced from the regression was applied to identify the trend in 2031. Based on the results of the analysis, it was identified that land use change that occurred in 2003, 2011, 2014 and 2016 had an influence on increasing levels of carbon emissions in Bandung and had a significant influence on the increase in temperature. This temperature trend is projected to increase by an average of 1°C in 2031.
