ABSTRACT

SERGE CLAUDIO RAFANOHARANA. Net Primary Production Spatial Distribution in Kalimantan. Under the supervision of HARTRISARI HARDJOMIDJOJO and IBNU SOFIAN.

Net Primary Production (NPP) flux was estimated based on the 16-days data of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) for 10 years from 2001 to 2010 by using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration - Carnegie Ames Stanford Approach (NASA-CASA) model. The values of the yearly average of NPP in Kalimantan from 2001 to 2010 were 762.77 gC m-2 yr-1, 703.74 gC m-2 yr-1, 778.68 gC m-2 yr-1, 745.6 gC m-2 yr-1, 797.54 gC m-2 yr-1, 713.27 gC m-2 yr-1, 790.01 gC m-2 yr-1, 768.53 gC m-2 yr-1, 752.94 gC m-2 yr-1, and 867.65 gC m-2 yr-1 respectively. The results have shown that high NPP was found in the forest area with a value from 1,200 gC m-2 yr-1 to 1,600 gC m-2 yr-1. It was followed by palm oil plantation with NPP of 1,000 gC m-2 yr-1 to 1,300 gC m-2 yr

-1

. For peatland, the value of NPP varied between 200 gC m-2 yr-1 and 600 gC m-2 yr-1. For water body, the results have shown that NPP varied from 0 gC m-2 yr -1 to 100 gC m-2 yr -1. For residential area, NPP was between 0 gC m-2 yr-1 and 700 gC m-2 yr-1. It increased as long as we got far from the center of the city. In term of mining area, the value of NPP was very low varying between 400 gC m-2 yr-1 to 600 gC m-2 yr-1. This high value might be the result from reforestation and from the vegetation surrounding the mining area since the resolution of the MODIS data used is 250-meter. The effect of inter-annual variation of El Nino is not clearly seen. However the NPP is decreasing during El Nino period. On the contrary, NPP is increasing during the La Nina periods. The NPP reached its highest value in March and April during the monsoonal transitional period, and decreased to the lowest in September and October.

Untuk wilayah pertambangan, nilai NPP berada di antara 400 gC m-2 thn-1 sampai 600 gC m-2 thn-1. Nilai NPP yang tinggi di daerah tambang ini kemungkinan dihasilkan dari vegetasi di sekitar daerah pertambangan. mengingat resolusi data MODIS mencakup 250 meter. Efek antar-tahunan variasi El Nino tidak jelas terlihat, namun nilai NPP menurun selama periode El Nino. Sebaliknya, nilai NPP meningkat selama periode La Nina. Nilai NPP tertinggi dicapai pada bulan Maret dan April selama periode transisi musiman, dan mencapai level terendah pada bulan September dan Oktober.

SUMMARY

SERGE CLAUDIO RAFANOHARANA. Net Primary Production Spatial Distribution in Kalimantan. Under the supervision of HARTRISARI HARDJOMIDJOJO and IBNU SOFIAN.

Temperature of the Earth is controlled by the balance between the input from energy of the sun that hits the earth and the loss of this energy reflected back into space. On average, about one-third of the solar radiation is reflected back to space. Of the remainder, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, but most is absorbed by the land and oceans. Study about NPP for tropical forest is very important, because Indonesia is one of the countries located in the tropical area which has large area of tropical forest. Information on net primary production in tropical forests is needed for the development of realistic global carbon budgets, for projecting how these ecosystems was affected by climatic and atmospheric changes.

The objective of this research is to estimate the Net Primary Production (NPP) using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) over Kalimantan between 2001 and 2010 and to validate the estimation of NPP with the ground check.

The research was conducted from March until October 2011. The study area was Kalimantan which is bounded between longitude 108o 40’ 58’’ E and 118o 59’ 45’’ E and latitude 4o 24’ 8’’ N and 4o 22’ 30’’ S with an area of approximately 537,442.55km2. MODIS satellite data was used for this research. The data was collected starting from the year 2001 to 2010. MOD13Q1 type in a Terra platform was used with a vegetation indices product. The data was in a tile fashion with a resolution of 250m and a temporal granularity of 16 days. In addition, FPAR data and different meteorological data such as temperature and rainfall data were downloaded from 2001 to 2010.

NPP in this research was estimated based on the utilization of remote sensing data which is MODIS data to provide information of the monthly NPP flux, defined as net fixation of CO2 by vegetation, which is computed in National

Aeronautics and Space Administration - Carnegie Ames Stanford Approach (NASA-CASA) model on the basis of light-use efficiency. Monthly production of plant biomass was estimated as a product of time-varying surface solar irradiance Sr, and EVI from the MODIS satellite, and a constant light utilization efficiency term emax that was modified by time-varying stress scalar terms for temperature T and moisture W effects.

In this study, the Enhanced Vegetation Index data were obtained from MODIS. Low EVI was assumed as sparsely vegetated land, high EVI was assumed as densely vegetated land, and EVI where values were equal to or below zero were assumed to be typically caused by water bodies. In October 2005, the amount of monthly mean of EVI reached its highest amount with about 0.55, while the lowest amount was in October 2006, around 0.46. However, during this 10-year period, there were a lot of changes to the proportion of EVI. The value of EVI reached its peak in March 2006, September 2007, March 2008, and


(6)

September 2010 with a value of 0.53, 0.52, 0.53, and 0.52 respectively. However, it decreased rapidly to 0.46 by the end of 2010.

The rainfall data used for this research was derived from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) data which is a joint U.S.-Japan satellite mission to monitor tropical and subtropical precipitation and to estimate its associated latent heating. The rainfall measuring instruments on the TRMM satellite include the Precipitation Radar (PR), an electronically scanning radar operating at 13.8 GHz; TRMM Microwave Image (TMI), a nine-channel passive microwave radiometer; and Visible and Infrared Scanner (VIRS), a five-channel visible/infrared radiometer. Monthly Average precipitation in Kalimantan varied from 44 mm to 376 mm per month. The highest precipitation was found during the months of December and January. At the beginning of each year, the monthly value of precipitation was above 250 mm; while it was less than 200 mm in the middle of each year especially in July. The monthly average precipitation reached its peak in January 2009 where the value was about 376 mm, but a dramatic fall at 107 mm followed it in September 2009. In August 2004, the monthly average precipitation had its lowest amount with about 44 mm.

The temperature data used for this study was from NCEP/NCAR (National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research) at monthly value. The monthly average temperature in Kalimantan ranged between 25.04°C to 26.38°C except in May 2010 where it reached 26.72°C. The pattern of monthly average temperature showed that monthly average temperature in Kalimantan reached its highest temperature value during May and June. The value of monthly average temperature in Kalimantan decreased from November to February for every year from about 25.7°C to 25.1°C. Similarly in July of every year, it fell slightly from about 25.9°C to 25.4°C; and for the other period of the year especially from February to May, an upward trend occurred with a value of about 25.05°C to 26.3°C and reached its peak in May or June. The monthly average temperature had its highest value in May 2010 and its lowest value in January 2009 with a value of 26.72°C and 25.04°C respectively. In general, each year variation’s trend was almost the same over the 10-year period from 2001 to 2010.

The monthly average Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active radiation FPAR could be used to explain about growing season length during normal climate condition or during abnormal climate condition. It measures the proportion of available radiation in the photosynthetically active wavelengths that are absorbed by a canopy. The monthly mean of FPAR peaked around June and July of every year and after that a rapid fall was noticed. However, the each-year FPAR revealed that the value of FPAR is not really stable. There was a lot of variations: many rises and decreases but over the 10-year period, the value of monthly average of FPAR was not generally less than 0.23 except for some cases where the amount was under 0.23 for instance in December 2003, October 2006, February 2008, and January 2009 with a value of 0.18, 0.16, 0.19, and 0.19 respectively.

Estimation of NPP using NASA CASA model has shown that high value of NPP has occurred in April and May of every year and low NPP during September and October. In addition, NPP over Kalimantan ranged from 0 to 1,800 gC m-2 yr-1. The results have shown that high NPP was found in the forest area


(7)

with a value from 1,200 gC m-2 yr-1 to 1,600 gC m-2 yr-1. It was followed by palm oil plantation with NPP of 1,000 gC m-2 yr-1 to 1,300 gC m-2 yr-1. For peatland, the value of NPP varied between 200 gC m-2 yr-1 and 600 gC m-2 yr-1. For water body, the results have shown that NPP varied from 0 gC m-2 yr -1 to 100 gC m-2 yr -1. For residential area, NPP was between 0 gC m-2 yr-1 and 700 gC m-2 yr-1. It increased as long as we got far from the center of the city. In term of mining area, the value of NPP was very low varying between 400 gC m-2 yr-1 to 600 gC m-2 yr-1. This high value might be the result from reforestation and from the vegetation surrounding the mining area since the resolution of the MODIS data used is 250-meter. Geographic and physic condition of the area affected the distribution of NPP. If the region is very mountainous, the value of NPP was very low at about 200 gC m-2 yr-1 and 400 gC m-2 yr-1. However, in the border of Kalimantan, the value of NPP was high reaching 1,400 gC m-2 yr-1 and even 1,800 gC m-2 yr-1. We found out that plenty of forests were still remaining in those areas on the border but we couldn’t verify for the whole area. There was a dramatically drop of NPP in the month of October 2006. It was reported that the 2006 Southeast Asian haze event was caused by continued uncontrolled burning from slash and burn cultivation in Indonesia, and affected several countries in the Southeast Asian region.

The results were validated by doing ground check in three main locations which were South Kalimantan, East Kalimantan, and Central Kalimantan. A sample for water body has been taken on the Mahakam River which is the largest river in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The sample for forest has been taken in different areas. However, some parts of the very deep forest one was in Tandilang Forest, located in the village called Sulang’ai, Sub-district of Batang Alai Timur, Hulu Sungai Tengah Regency, in South Kalimantan Province. The ground check for peatland was done in a vast peatland area called “Jl Asang Permai Gambut”. The ground check for palm oil was done at the “Kebun Kelapa Sawit Pelaihari”, a palm oil plantation owned by PT. Perkebunan Nusantara XIII (PERSERO). Since it was impossible to go through the mining area, we took the point as close as the mining area as possible and we also took some points from some remaining areas and conditions of previous mining activities. For the residential area, it was done in Pangkalan Bun, capital of the Kotawaringin Barat regency, in the western part of Central Kalimantan.

To improve the prediction of NPP, it is recommended to apply more parameter data such as land cover data from high resolution satellite data. It is important to conduct field experiments and observations for advancing our understanding of the interactions between the carbon and nitrogen cycles in the tropics.

I. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Temperature of the Earth is controlled by the balance between the input from energy of the sun that hits the earth and the loss of this energy reflected back into space. On average, about one-third of the solar radiation is reflected back to space. Of the remainder, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, but most is absorbed by the land and oceans (Maslin 2004). Certain atmospheric gases are critical to the temperature balance and are known as greenhouse gases. The existence of greenhouse gases includes water vapor, carbon dioxide, ozone, methane, and nitrous oxide could a blanket effect and would increase the temperature of the earth. Global temperatures have risen by 0.76oC since 1850, with doubled warming rate compare to the past century (Partington 2007).

The increasing concentration of atmospheric greenhouse gases could also threatened the existence of human beings. Understanding the response of ecosystem to climate change would be necessary for human beings to protect the environment and for the production of food and energy. Vegetation could act as carbon source or sink to greenhouse gases (Schimel et al. 2000, Braswell et al.

1997). According to Partington (2007) and also Dutschke and Wolf (2007), it was mentioned that deforestation is considered as the second most important human-induced source of greenhouse gases. This was being responsible for approximately 20% of total emissions. Much knowledge has been gathered on drivers and causes of deforestation and forest degradation at recent years, also methodological tools have been developed to monitor large areas and predict the quantification of carbon benefits from reduced deforestation and forest degradation (REDD).

Net Primary Production (NPP) is defined as the net flux of carbon from the atmosphere into green plants per unit time (Zhiqiang et al. 2004). Annual NPP is the net amount of carbon captured by land plants through photosynthesis each year. Studying the response of NPP to the environment could help understand the functions of ecosystem and its feedback to the changes of climate and social environment. Study on ecosystem productivity is also the key to sustainable


(21)

utilization and development of agriculture and forestry (Lobell et al. 2002, Mingkui and Woodward 1998). Net Primary Production of terrestrial ecosystems is important in estimating land carrying capacity, which is critically relevant to the social and economic development of a country. An objective and critical review of past efforts to estimate forest NPP calls into question the precision and accuracy of such estimates (Clark et al. 2001), new techniques such as eddy flux correlation (Goulden et al. 1996) and more explicit identification of NPP components (Clarck

et al. 2001) have led to improved estimates. Temporal trends lead to differences in estimated NPP and its allocation, depending on stand age or development stage (Kira 1975); hence, comparisons among species of forest types must be done with some caution.

MODIS data could be used to estimate the spatial distribution of NPP. MODIS offers a unique combination of features such as detection of a wide spectral range of electromagnetic energy; measurement at three spatial resolutions and time of measurements take in place. These advantages allowed MODIS to complete an electromagnetic picture of the globe every two days. MODIS’ frequent coverage could complement other imaging systems such as Landsat’s Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus, which reveals the Earth in finer spatial detail, but can only image a given area once every 16 days. The research is aimed to estimate the NPP using MODIS for Kalimantan area.

1.2 Objectives

The objectives of this research are:

- to estimate the Net Primary Production (NPP) using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) - to validate the estimation of NPP with the ground check

1.3 Expected Output

The expected output is the estimation of the total Net Primary Production, based on MODIS data in Kalimantan during 2001 to 2010. We also expect to obtain the spatial distribution of NPP, and validate the estimation with the ground check for several areas.

II. LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Net Primary Production

NPP is a measurement of plant growth obtained by calculating the quantity of carbon absorbed and stored by vegetation. NPP is equal to photosynthesis minus respiration. It is sometimes expressed in grams of carbon per square meter per year. It is a major component of the carbon cycle. Net primary productivity (NPP) is also defined as the net flux of carbon from the atmosphere into green plants per unit time. NPP refers to a rate process, i.e., the amount of vegetable matter produced (net primary production) per day, week, or year. It is a tool for measuring forest productivity and establishing carbon budgets. The data obtained by calculating NPP can be used as the basis for estimating the impact of both natural disturbances and management activities on forest productivity, assessing the effects of climate change on forests, and assessing the role that these forests can play in achieving our greenhouse-gas reduction objectives (Lobell et al. 2002, Mingkui and Woodward 1998). MODIS NPP is an annual value and provides a means of evaluating spatial patterns in productivity as well as interannual variation and long term trends in biosphere behavior (Turner et al. 2006).

2.2 Climate change

Plants capture and store solar energy through photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, living plants convert carbon dioxide in the air into sugar molecules they use for food. In the process of making their own food, plants also provide the oxygen that is very important for human beings. Plant productivity also plays a major role in the global carbon cycle by absorbing some of the carbon dioxide released from the people activities sech as burning coal, oil, and other fossil fuels. The carbon plants absorbed would becomes part of leaves, roots, stalks or tree trunks, and ultimately, the soil.

Climate change is a long-term change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. It may cause a change in the average weather conditions for example greater frequency of rains or longer time of drought season (Maslin 2004). Factors that


(23)

affected the climate are climate forcing such variations in solar radiation, deviations in the earth's orbit, and changes in greenhouse gas concentrations. There are a variety of climate change feedbacks that can either amplify or diminish the initial forcing. Some parts of the climate system, such as the oceans and ice caps, respond slowly in reaction to climate forcing because of their large mass. Therefore, the climate system can take centuries or longer to fully respond to new external forcing.

2.3 MODIS

MODIS (or Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) is a key instrument aboard the Terra (EOS AM) and Aqua (EOS PM) satellites. Terra's orbit around the Earth is timed so that it passes from north to south across the equator in the morning, while Aqua passes south to north over the equator in the afternoon. Terra MODIS and Aqua MODIS are viewing the entire Earth's surface every 1 to 2 days, acquiring data in 36 spectral bands, or groups of wavelengths. These data improved our understanding of global dynamics and processes occurring on the land, in the oceans, and in the lower atmosphere. MODIS is playing a vital role in the development of validated, global, interactive Earth system models to predict global change accurately enough to assist policy makers in making sound decisions concerning the protection of our environment.

The pair of Vegetation Indices from MODIS data highlights some of the refinements of the MODIS Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI, right) over the traditional Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI, left) that has been used with previous satellite instruments. NDVI tends to “saturate” over dense vegetation such as the rainforests of South America, failing to distinguish variability. The MODIS EVI provides a more detailed look at variability within such highly vegetated regions. Production of MODIS NDVI provides continuity with data sets from heritage instruments, while EVI provides detail of global vegetation variability. Neither the NDVI nor the EVI product eliminated all obstacles. Clouds and aerosols can often block the satellites’ view of the surface entirely, glare from the sun can saturate certain pixels, and temporary malfunctions in the satellite instruments themselves can distort an image.

The research was conducted from March until October 2011. The study area was Kalimantan which is bounded between longitude 108o 40’ 58’’ E and 118o 59’ 45’’ E and latitude 4o 24’ 8’’ N and 4o 22’ 30’’ S with an area of approximately 537.442,55 km2. The Figure 1 shows the area of study (inside the red boundary).

3.2 Required Tools

One of the important steps for the study is the selection of the appropriate software. For that, we used GRADS 2.0 and MODIS Tool. In addition, appropriate hardware selection is also important so that its compatibility with the selected software might not cause any problem during all processes. Computers supported with high-speed Internet connection were required for this research. The research was done at the laboratory of Master of Science in Information Technology for Natural Resources Management (M.Sc. in IT for NRM) at SEAMEO BIOTROP.

3.3 Data Source

MODIS satellite data was used for this research. The data was collected starting from the year 2001 to 2010. MOD13Q1 type in a Terra platform was used with a vegetation indices product. The data are in a tile fashion with a resolution


(25)

of 250m and a temporal granularity of 16 days. In addition, FPAR data was downloaded from 2001 to 2010.

MODIS might be so far, the most complex instrument built and flown on a spacecraft for civilian research purposes. The MODIS sensor provides higher quality data for monitoring terrestrial vegetation and other land processes than the previous AVHRR, not only because its narrower spectral bands that enhance the information derived from vegetation, but also because leading scientists are working as a team to improve the accuracy of the data from low level reflectance data, to high level data, such as land cover, fire, land surface temperature, vegetation indices (NDVI and EVI; EVI is the enhanced vegetation index), FAPR / LAI and GPP / NPP (Justice et al. 2002)

3.4 Method

3.4.1 Data collection

MODIS data was used for this study. We login the MODIS/Terra Multiple Data Ordering Page to download MODIS data for our study sites. Since Kalimantan has a wide area, it could not be covered by one single image of MODIS data. In order to cover the whole area of Kalimantan, the MODIS data could be downloaded in a tile fashion, from which each tile covers approximately 10 latitude by 10 longitude.

For Kalimantan area, four images MODIS data was needed for EVI. MODIS Tool and GRADS 2.0 were the software used to process MODIS data. The Figure 2 shows the general methodology adopted for this research.

3.4.2 Data Processing

There was several remote sensing techniques applied in this research. The first step of the work was mosaicking the images. This was done by using MODIS Tool and GRADS. Those software provided interactive capabilities for placing


(27)

non geo referenced images within a mosaic, and automated placement of geo referenced images within a geo referenced output mosaic and conduct the other data processing. The same process was done for MODIS EVI and other data.

3.4.3 Measuring vegetation: Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI)

In December 1999, NASA launched the Terra spacecraft, the flagship in the agency’s Earth Observing System (EOS) program. Aboard Terra flies a sensor called the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, or MODIS, that greatly improves scientists’ ability to measure plant growth on a global scale. MODIS provides much higher spatial resolution (up to 250-meter resolution), while also matching Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)’s almost-daily global cover and exceeding its spectral resolution. In other words, MODIS provided images over a given pixel of land just as often as AVHRR, but in much finer detail and with measurements in a greater number of wavelengths using detectors that were specifically designed for measurements of land surface dynamics.

Consequently, the MODIS Science Team prepared a new data product– called the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) that improved upon the quality of the NDVI product. The EVI took full advantage of MODIS’ new, state-of-the-art measurement capabilities. The EVI is calculated similar to NDVI, but with corrections for some distortions in the reflected light caused by the particles in the air as well as the ground cover below the vegetation. The EVI data product also does not become saturated as easily as the NDVI when viewing rainforests and other areas of the Earth with large amounts of chlorophyll.

Vegetation indices derived from remote sensing data provide information about consistent, spatial and temporal comparisons of global vegetation conditions which was used to monitor the Earth's terrestrial photosynthetic vegetation activity. For example, the enhanced vegetation index (EVI) provides a measure of greenness of the vegetation that can be used to predict net primary production.

The Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) improves on the venerable NDVI. Derived from state-of-the-art satellite data provided by the MODIS instrument, EVI improves on NDVI's spatial resolution, is more sensitive to differences in


(28)

heavily vegetated areas. The EVI is related to the optical measures of vegetation, a direct measure of photosynthetic potential resulting from composite chlorophyll, leaf area, canopy cover, and structure. It is developed to optimize the vegetation signal with improved sensitivity in high biomass regions and improved vegetation monitoring through a de-coupling of the canopy background signal and a reduction in atmosphere influences. The equation takes the form,

EVI = G * (ρNIR – ρRed) / (ρNIR + C1 * ρRed – C2 * ρBlue + L)

Where,

EVI = Enhanced Vegetation Index G = Gain factor (=2.5)

ρNIR = Near Infrared Reflectance

ρRed = Red Reflectance

ρBlue = Blue Reflectance

C1 = Atmosphere Resistance Red Correction Coefficients (=1)

C2 = Atmosphere Resistance Blue Correction Coefficients (=6.0)

L = Canopy Background Brightness Correction Factor (=1)

The input reflectance to the EVI equation may be atmospherically-corrected or partially atmosphere atmospherically-corrected for Rayleigh scattering and ozone absorption. C1 and C2 are the coefficients of the aerosol resistance term, which uses the blue band to correct for aerosol influences in the red band. The canopy background adjustment factor, L, addresses non-linear, differential NIR and red radiant transfer through a canopy and renders the EVI insensitive to most canopy backgrounds, with snow backgrounds as the exception.

3.4.4 Estimation of Net Primary Production (NPP)

This estimation was based on the value of EVI. The methods for measurement of primary production vary depend on the focus that we would like to calculate, the gross or net production, terrestrial or aquatic system. The approach for estimation of NPP was conducted using relationship of monthly


(29)

production of plant biomass (Potter et al. 2009) which is estimated as a product of time varying surface solar irradiance and EVI from the MODIS satellite, with a constant light utilization efficiency term that is modified by time varying stress scalar terms for temperature and moisture effects. As documented in Potter (1999), the monthly NPP flux, defined as net fixation of CO2 by vegetation, is computed

in NASA–CASA on the basis of light-use efficiency (Monteith 1972). Monthly production of plant biomass is estimated as a product of time-varying surface solar irradiance (Sr) (Kistler et al. 2001), and EVI from the MODIS satellite (Huete et al., 2002), and a constant light utilization efficiency term (emax) that is modified by time-varying stress scalar terms for temperature (T) and moisture (W) effects. The equation to estimate the NPP is defined below.

NPP = Sr EVI emax Tscalar Wscalar

Where,

NPP = Net Primary Production (gC m-2 year-1) Sr = Solar irradiance (W m-1)

EVI = Enhanced Vegetation Index from MODIS emax = Constant Light Utilization Efficiency Term Tscalar = Optimal temperature for plant production

Wscalar = Monthly water deficit

The emax term is set uniformly at 0.39 gC MJ−1 PAR, a value that derives from calibration of predicted annual NPP to previous field estimates (Potter et al. 1993). Tscalar is computed with reference to derivation of optimal temperatures

(Topt) for plant production. Topt setting varied by latitude and longitude, ranging

from near 0°C in the Arctic to the middle thirties in low-latitude deserts. Wscalar is

estimated from monthly water deficits, based on a comparison of moisture supply (precipitation and stored soil water) to potential evapotranspiration (PET).

The PAR values are actually restricted to just a portion of electromagnetic spectrum from 0.4 to 0.7 micrometers ( m) which is comparable to the range of


(30)

light of human eye can see. Therefore, this value was assumed to be approximately 0.5 of the incoming solar radiation (Rasib et al. 2008) and it was used for this research.

Tscalar is estimated using the equation developed for the terrestrial ecosystem

model (Raich et al. 1991). The equation for Tscalar is:

Tscalar = [ (T – Tmax) (T – Tmin) ] / [ (T – Tmax) (T – Tmin) – (T – Topt)2 ]

where T is the observed temperature (oC) and Tmin, Tmax, and Topt are minimum,

maximum, and optimal temperature for photosynthesis with a value of 20oC, 40oC, and 30oC respectively.

Wscalar is the effect of water deficit on plant photosynthesis, and is

estimated as a function of rainfall, run off, groundwater reserves and potential evapotranspiration. The equation for Wscalar is defined below:

Wscalar = 0.5 + [ 0.5 * (EET / PET) ]

where EET and PET are estimated and potential evapotranspiration, where Wscalar

ranged between 0.5 (dry) to 1 (wet). Therefore, the function in Wscalar can be

described as below:

PPT > PET => EET = PET PPT < PET => EET = PPT

where PPT is the total precipitation. Water run-off and groundwater reserves are ignored and where PET is calculated based on Priestley and Taylor (1972) with the equation:


(31)

where Rn is the net-radiation (MJ m-2 month-1), G is the heat flux at ground level

assumed to be 0, γ is the constant psychometric with a value of about 66 Pa K-1. and α are the latent heat of evaporation and the empirical factor of with values 2.5 MJ Kg-1 and 1.26 respectively. Δ is calculated using the following mathematical equation:

Δ = 2504 * exp [(17.27 * T) / (T + 237.2)] / (T + 237.3)2

where Δ is the slope vapour pressure curve (KPa oC-1) and T the air temperature (oC).

3.4.5 Validation with the ground check

The result of the calculation should be validated with the ground check. Validation of the NPP is an essential step in establishing its utility; however, validation is challenging because of a variety of scaling issues (Morisette et al.

2002, Turner et al. 2004). Site-level validation of MODIS NPP has been more limited because of the logistical constraints of measuring NPP and scaling it to the size of a MODIS grid cell (Turner et al. 2004, 2005). These efforts have likewise found site-specific differences in the degree of agreement between ground-based and MODIS-based NPP estimates. The MODIS NPP algorithm requires the computation of autotrophic respiration (Ra) based on inputs of leaf area index (LAI) and temperature, along with look-up table values for constants and the base rate of respiration (Running et al. 2000). Specific problems with the Ra component of NPP have been identified in some cases (Turner et al. 2005).

It is widely known that tower flux measurements of Net Ecosystem Production (NEP) can be used for model validation at the small site scale. Nevertheless, we have not included comparisons of tower-based NEP to NASA-CASA modeled NEP in this island study, because tower eddy flux estimates are not designed to represent large-scale (e.g., 8 km) NEP fluxes that we model with NASA-CASA.

NEP is named ecosystem carbon sink (positive value) or carbon source (negative value). It is a key characteristic to measure ecosystem carbon uptake or


(32)

release. Theoretically, when an ecosystem matures, e.g. climax, it is in equilibrium with the climate and soil environment, so the carbon uptake and release are balanced, and NEP approximates to zero. But if the environmental conditions, such as climate, changed, the ecosystem carbon budgets were not balanced.

In any year over the past nine years, net ecosystem production can be very large in one location but very small or negative in another location because of the spatial heterogeneity of vegetation, soils and climate. Locations with large positive annual NEP are often those that receive a high amount of precipitation. In contrast, locations with negative NEP are often those that receive little precipitation. Year-to-year changes in spatial pattern of NEP were most probably caused by changes in the spatial pattern of precipitation, which can be changed dramatically by the El Nino events (Vörösmarty et al. 1996).

For this research, different samples from different areas for ground check were considered. The first area was related to the place where the highest value of NPP is found. The second area was a place where the lowest value of NPP is found. For that, we checked on the ground what kind of features exists exactly in the area, and how can we come up with a conclusion based on what we found in the area with our system.

A sample for water body has been taken on the Mahakam River which is the largest river in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, with a catchment area of approximately 77,100 km2. The catchment lies between 2˚N to 1˚S latitude and 113˚E to 118˚E longitude. The river originates in Cemaru (Van Bemmelen 1949) from where it flows south-eastwards, meeting the River Kedang Pahu at the city of Muara Pahu. From there, the river flows eastward through the Mahakam lakes region, which is a flat tropical lowland area surrounded by peat land. Thirty shallow lakes are situated in this area, which are connected to the Mahakam through small channels.

The samples for forests have been taken in different areas. However, some parts of the very deep forest one was in Tandilang Forest, located in the village called Sulang’ai, Sub-district of Batang Alai Timur, Hulu Sungai Tengah Regency, in South Kalimantan Province.


(33)

Over the past decade, the government of Indonesia has drained some peat swamp forests of the island of Borneo for conversion to agricultural land. The dry years of 1997-8 and 2002-3 saw huge fires in the peat swamp forests. A study for the European Space Agency found that the peat swamp forests are a significant carbon sink for the planet, and that the fires of 1997-8 may have released up to 2.5 billion tonnes, and the 2002-3 fires between 200 million to 1 billion tonnes, of carbon into the atmosphere. Much of the emissions from peatlands in Borneo are due to changes in their hydrological regime, caused by drainage from nearby plantations (particularly oil palm). Peatland conservation and rehabilitation are more efficient undertakings than reducing deforestation (in terms of claiming carbon credits from REDD initiatives), due to the much larger reduced emissions achievable per unit area and the much lower opportunity costs involved (Mathai 2009). Indonesia contributes 50 percent of tropical peat swamps and 10 percent of dry land in the world. The ground check for peatland was done in a vast peatland area called “Jl Asang Permai Gambut”.

Deeper analysis in Indonesia suggests that oil palm development might be a cover for something more lucrative: logging. Recently much has been made about the conversion of Asia's biodiversity rainforests for oil-palm cultivation. Environmental organizations have warned that by eating foods that use palm oil as an ingredient, Western consumers are directly fueling the destruction of orangutan habitat and sensitive ecosystems. However, oil-palm plantations now cover millions of hectares across Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand.

Palm oil became the world's number one fruit crop, trouncing its nearest competitor, the humble banana because of its crop's unparalleled productivity. Palm oil is the most productive oil seed in the world. A single hectare of oil palm may yield 5,000 kilograms of crude oil, or nearly 6,000 liters of crude. The ground check for palm oil was done at the “Kebun Kelapa Sawit Pelaihari”, a palm oil plantation owned by PT. Perkebunan Nusantara XIII (PERSERO).

Mining sector in South Kalimantan Province is dominated by oil, natural gas and coal, but oil and natural gas is inclined to have decreased, coal precisely have very fast increasing amount. Coal has been blamed as a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. The South Kalimantan Province is an area with


(34)

abundant deposits of coal and contributes 16.36 % to the national coal stock. Coal mining is a profitable business. It creates employment, generates value, and improves the foreign investment of a country or region. However, coal mining has its disadvantages including not to mention the impact to the environment. Since it was impossible to go through the mining area, we took the points as close as the mining area as possible and we also took some points from some remaining areas and conditions of previous mining activities.

For residential area, the ground check was done in Pangkalan Bun, capital of the Kotawaringin Barat regency, in the western part of Central Kalimantan. This is the entry point to reach Tanjung Puting Park in the southern part, and the Dayak villages in the north of Central Kalimantan Province.

IV. RESULTS

4.1 Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI)

The enhanced vegetation index (EVI) was developed to optimize the vegetation signal with improved sensitivity in high biomass regions and improved vegetation monitoring through a de-coupling of the canopy background signal and a reduction in atmosphere influences. In this study, the Enhanced Vegetation Index data were obtained from MODIS. Low EVI is sparsely vegetated land, high EVI is densely vegetated land, and EVI where values are equal to or below zero are assumed to be typically caused by water bodies.

Figure 3 Time series of monthly mean of EVI in Kalimantan

Figure 3 illustrates changes in the average value of EVI in Kalimantan between 2001 and 2010. In October 2005, the amount of EVI reached its highest amount with about 0.55, while the lowest amount was in October 2006, around 0.46. However, during this 10-year period, there were a lot of changes to the proportion of EVI. In the beginning of 2001, the value was about 0.51 then 0.55 in March 2001, but a dramatic fall was noticed in November 2002 (around 0.48). A big variation was seen until July 2005: the EVI varied between 0.49 and 0.53. On the other hand, a small variation was noticed over the next five years (2006-2010). The value of EVI reached its peak in March 2006, September 2007, March 2008, and September 2010 with a value of 0.53, 0.52, 0.53, and 0.52 respectively. However, it decreased rapidly to 0.46 by the end of 2010. Overall, Figure 3 shows how big is the variation of EVI during the first 5-year period and the last 2 years.

Figure 4 compares the monthly mean of EVI and the Climatology Process in Kalimantan for 10 years. As can be seen in Figure 4, the proportion of EVI varied between around 0.46 to 0.55 while the monthly average of 10 years was around 0.49 to 0.54. In the beginning of 2001, the monthly average of 10 years was by far lower than the proportion of EVI: it was only about 0.52 while the EVI was about 0.54. However, at mid-2001, the amount of EVI declined dramatically to almost 0.50 which was almost similar to the monthly average of 10 years. During the 10-year period, the proportion of EVI varied a lot. In general, the value was more than 0.50 except at the end of 2002 and 2006, from the middle of 2009 until mid-2010, and by the end of 2010. The monthly average of 10 years for EVI, on the other hand, showed a small variation. Even if there are many upward and downward trends happening throughout the period, the value was not lower than 0.49. Overall, Figure 4 showed that the proportion of EVI was much more stable from 2001 to mid 2009 except in October 2006 and was quite low from mid-2009 to mid-2010.

Figure 5 shows the anomalies for the EVI in Kalimantan from 2001 to 2010. It is clear that the values varied between -0.04 and 0.05 during this 10-year period. In October 2005, it reached its peak with a value of 0.05, whereas in October 2006, it had its lowest value at -0.04. For the other years, the variation was around -0.03 to 0.02. During the first 5 years, all values are positive except in September to December 2002, April 2003, and August 2004 to June 2005, where the variation of the anomalies showed a downward trend. Similarly a downward trend was also noticed over the last 5-year period. However, some of the values are above 0 in February to June 2006, January and May 2007, September 2007 to March 2008, August to December 2008, February and April 2009, and September to November 2010 before a rapid decline by the end of 2010 with a value of -0.03. Overall, Figure 5 indicates that there was a difference between the variations of the values of the anomalies of EVI from 2001 to 2005, and from 2006 to 2010.

4.1.2 Spatial distribution of Enhanced Vegetation Index

Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) data were obtained from the MODIS sensor. It corrects for some distortions in the reflected light caused by the particles in the air as well as the ground cover below the vegetation. The EVI data product also does not become saturated as easily as NDVI when viewing rainforests and other area of the Earth with large amounts of chlorophyll. The EVI data are designed to provide consistent, spatial and temporal comparisons of vegetation conditions, and it offers


(38)

the potential for regional analysis and systematic and effective monitoring of the forest area.

The EVI values were resulted from 10-year estimation. The values vary between -0.2 as minimum to 1 as maximum. The EVI values equal to or below zero were assumed to be typically caused by water bodies. The low EVI values were sparsely vegetated land meanwhile the high EVI values were densely vegetated land. Estimation of EVI values over Kalimantan terrestrial from 2001 to 2010 are shown in the Table 1.

Figure 7 Monthly average temperature over Kalimantan from 2001 to 2010

Figure 7 gives information about changes of the monthly average temperature in Kalimantan between 2001 and 2010. The monthly average temperature in Kalimantan ranged between 25.04°C to 26.38°C except in May 2010 where it reached 26.72°C. The pattern of monthly average temperature showed that monthly average temperature in Kalimantan reached its highest temperature value during May and June. It is evident that the value of monthly average temperature in Kalimantan decreased from November to February for every year from about 25.7°C to 25.1°C. Similarly in July of every year, it fell slightly from about 25.9°C to 25.4°C; and for the other period of the year especially from February to May, the figure showed an upward trend with a value of about 25.05°C to 26.3°C and reached its peak in May or June. The monthly average temperature had its highest value in May 2010 and its lowest value in January 2009 with a value of 26.72°C and 25.04°C respectively. In general, each year variation’s trend was almost the same over the 10-year period from 2001 to 2010.

Table 2 reveals the general pattern of monthly temperature in Kalimantan from 2001 to 2010. It is showed that for the Min, the highest value was in May 2010 at 22.68 oC; while the lowest proportion was in August 2004 at just 20.74 oC.

4.3 Precipitation

The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) is a joint U.S.-Japan satellite mission to monitor tropical and subtropical precipitation and to estimate its associated latent heating. TRMM was successfully launched on November 27, at 4:27 PM (EST) from the Tanegashima SpaceCenter in Japan. The rainfall


(42)

measuring instruments on the TRMM satellite include the Precipitation Radar (PR), an electronically scanning radar operating at 13.8 GHz; TRMM Microwave Image (TMI), a nine-channel passive microwave radiometer; and Visible and Infrared Scanner (VIRS), a five-channel visible/infrared radiometer. TRMM data was used in order to derive the precipitation.

Figure 8 Monthly average precipitation over Kalimantan from 2001 to 2010

The Figure 8 reveals the monthly average precipitation in Kalimantan over 10-year period from 2001 to 2010. Monthly Average precipitation varied from 44 mm to 376 mm per month. The highest precipitation was found during the months of December and January. At the beginning of each year, the value of precipitation was above 250 mm; while it is less than 200 mm in the middle of each year especially in July. The monthly average precipitation reached its peak in January 2009 where the value was about 376 mm, but a dramatic fall at 107 mm followed it in September 2009. In August 2004, the monthly average precipitation had its lowest amount with about 44 mm, but generally the graph showed an upward trend in September 2004 with an amount of 204 mm.

Table 3 shows the general pattern of monthly precipitation in Kalimantan for 10 years from 2001 to 2010. As can be seen in the Table 2, the Min had its maximal proportion mostly during the months of October, November, and December with about 105 mm, 120 mm, and 111 mm respectively; while it had its minimal proportion generally in February, March and July to August of every year.
