| Abstrak/Abstract |
This study investigated the influence of land use change and climate change on changes in streamflow in the Bengawan Solo River (BSR, 16,000 km2) basin, Indonesia. We applied the excess water and energy approach to three tributaries of the BSR namely Pidekso, Madiun and Kening River, which represents the up-, mid-, and downstream part of the BSR, respectively. This study used hydrological data from 1982-2013 and land use data for the years 1994 and 2013. The results show that from 1982 to 2013, annual streamflow of the Pidekso and Madiun River has increased, while in the Kening River it has decreased. Based on attribution measures, the increasing streamflow trend in the Pidekso and Madiun River was mainly attributed to land use change, while the decreasing streamflow trend in the Kening River was mainly attributed to climate change. These attribution results were validated by statistical analyses and land use change analysis. |
