Sebaran TDS, DHL, Penurunan Muka Airtanah dan Prediksi Intrusi Air Laut di Kota Tangerang Selatan

Abstract

The overuse of groundwater with the management of water sources that ignores the environment can decrease the quantity and quality of groundwater. In the area of South Tangerang City, groundwater quality degradation is caused by the dynamics of development South Tangerang City towards the profile of Metropolitan City. The purpose of this research is to make the water quality zone map based on DHL and TDS parameter, zone map based on decrease of groundwater level and predict the occurrence of seawater intrusion in the South Tangerang City. The research method used is to identify the quality groundwater and a decrease of groundwater level from water analysis using Kepmen ESDM Nomor 1451.K/10/MEM/2000 and make the distribution of water quality and a decrease of groundwater level using the software Surfer 9 and ArcView GIS 3.2, and predict patterns spread of seawater intrusion from water quality analysis using the regression equation. From the identification result and analysis of water quality, South Tangerang City is categorized as a safe zone. Safe zone is the area that meets one of decrease criteria on groundwater quality which are characterized by the increase of TDS that is less than 1,000 mg/l or less than 1,000 DHL μmhos/cm.
