Peatland Hydro-Climatological Parameters Variability in Response to 2019–2022 Climate Anomalies in the OKI Regency
Peatlands in OKI Regency are highly flammable during extreme dry seasons and experience flooding during extreme rainy seasons. Research related to peatlands is important to be carried out in disaster mitigation efforts on peatlands. In this study, we aimed to examine the impact of climate anomalies...

description | Peatlands in OKI Regency are highly flammable during extreme dry seasons and experience flooding during extreme rainy seasons. Research related to peatlands is important to be carried out in disaster mitigation efforts on peatlands. In this study, we aimed to examine the impact of climate anomalies occurring between 2019 and 2022 on the Rainfall (RF), Groundwater Level (GWL), and Soil Moisture (SM) in this region. We analyzed data collected at the CJ2 station to understand the dynamics of these parameters throughout the occurrence of the ENSO and IOD phenomena in 2019–2022. The findings of this study indicate a positive correlation between RF and GWL. Specifically, a higher amount of RF resulted in a stronger correlation. Moreover, the rate of the GWL decline was 0.24 mm/d, while the rate of the SM decline was 0.06%/day. Furthermore, the soil moisture in CJ2 OKI must be maintained at a minimum of 20% to prevent fires. In addition, an empirical equation was derived to express the relationship between GWL (m) and SM (%) as SM = 49,044 GWL + 59,142. The findings of this study provide valuable in-sights for all stakeholders involved in efforts to mitigate the impact of natural disasters on peatlands. |
