KBDI Analysis of Peatland Drought Index Modification in Liang Anggang Protected Forest Area Block 1
Abstract
Peatlands are a unique and fragile ecosystem, as they are located in a swampy environment. Peatlands play an important role in maintaining biodiversity and climate regulation. Peat soils have high organic levels; when the water in peat soils is reduced, the fibers on peat soils are prone to fire. This study aims to analyze the magnitude of the drought index and map the temporal drought index in the Liang Anggang Protected Forest area. The analysis methods carried out include data collection, namely rainfall data from 2012 to 2021 and maximum daily temperature data, which is then processed using several stages of analysis from the Keech Byram Drought Index (KBDI) model modification in peatland condition. It was concluded that the region has an average high drought index that occurs from July to August, and the greater the value of the drought index, the more directly proportional to the number of fires but inversely proportional to rainfall. Based on the temporal analysis, several conclusions were obtained through various conditions. Drought index levels increased significantly started from May, and the peak of drought in September and beginning to decrease the following month.
