| dc.description.abstract | Indonesia is an archipelagic country consisting of nearly 17,000 islands with a
total coast line length exceeding of 81,000 km. The country borders two oceans
with the sea water flows from Pacific to Indian Ocean passing the archipelago
via the so called Indonesian water through flow. Indonesian sea waters have
large variations of tidal regime, strong tides, and sea level rise (SLR) (Manurung,
2004). Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Affair of Indonesia predicted that more
than 2000 small islands will be lost due to the impact of SLR. SLR is one of the
impacts of global warming and will cause inundation of many small islands and
coastal in Indonesia (BAAPENAS, 2010). Therefore, these islands will suffer from
SLR evidence. | id |
