Settlement Areas Located in Riverbed which are Exposed to Flooding Hilly Areas which are Exposed to High Winds Areas which are Exposed to Land Movement, Landslides, and Abrasion

2.2.2. Settlement Areas Located in Riverbed which are Exposed to Flooding

Residential areas located in flood plains areas are also classified as areas vulnerable. The following figure is the map of settlements around the banks of the major rivers in Semarang City. Figure 2.12: Residential Areas in Riverbed of Semarang City 23

2.2.3. Hilly Areas which are Exposed to High Winds

As a result of extreme weather, high winds also often provide a serious threat to Semarang City. There is no accurate record of the intensity of this event. However, strong winds incident was encountered by some sub-district in the hilly area of Tembalang District, such as Sendangguwo, Bulusan, and Tandang. On the other hand, high winds in the lowland areas have occurred in Tugurejo Sub-district, Tugu District and Tanjung Mas Sub-district in North Semarang District. However, the most intense incident located at Tandang Sub-district. Figure 2.13: Areas Prone to High Winds in Semarang City 24

2.2.4. Areas which are Exposed to Land Movement, Landslides, and Abrasion

A more intense rainfall in the wet season due to climate change could exacerbate the possibility of land movements and landslide in some hilly areas of Semarang City, while the wave circulation leads to abrasion in western part of coastal areas. The following figure shows areas of Semarang City which are prone to soil movement, landslides, and abrasion based on a study that have been conducted by CCROM IPB 2010. Figure 2.14: Area Prone to Land Movement, Landslide, and Abrasion The result of sector studies FT PLTR UNDIP, 2010 recommend a specific site which are crucial to be managed to deal with catastrophic landslide. These locations are priority to handle because: 1 the 25 settlements have a slope above 25, 2 at the same time they do not have an appropriate drainage network, and 3 the location itself is in the high vulnerability category based on the VA study. The following map is the specific site in question.
