Estimation of net primary productionusing the NetPro 1.0 model Case study: Cidanau watershed, Serang

Abstract

A payment for environmental services scheme is held in Cidanau watershed, Serang. Cibojong and Citaman are villages chosen for payment model. The scheme was intended to maintain water supply mainly for the industry in Cilegon. The watershed also has a swamp forest protected as a natural preserve, the Rawa Danau preserve. It is also important for the Cidanau river water supply. Rawa Danau as well as private garden managed for this scheme have carbon sequestration potency. This potency is described using net primary production (NPP) estimated using the NetPro v. 1.0 model. Inputs for the model for this research were Landsat 7 NDVI 2002 and 2004 data, 2002 and 2004 daily radiation data, and 2002 and 2004 daily minimum and maximum temperature.
