Coastal Inundation at Spring Tide 2012

4.3.5. Projection Until The End of Long Term Development Plan

As the result to be accordance with development planning, the time of projection inundated area that made has in line with development planning. Former data shows that sea level has been increase linearly by the time and predicting will continuous increase in the future.. Based on that assumption, sea level until the end of long term development planning RPJPRencana Pembangunan Jangka Panjang of Semarang City can be predicted. In next ten year 2021, real sea level value will reach 79.956 cm above zero, in next fifty 2.98 4.01 4.48 2.91 3.42 4.20 year 2026 will reach 92.632 cm above zero and in next twenty year 2031 will reach 105.308 cm above zero. All land area near coastline will affecting by this rise in term of flooding. Land area that lower than 79.956 cm will be converting into submergence area in next 10 year, land area that lower than 92.632 cm will be converting into submergence area in next 15 year and, land area that lower than 105.308 cm will be converting into submergence area in next 20 year. The illustration of projected inundated area in 10, 15 and 20 years to go can be seen in figure 4.10 Figure 4.10. Projecting submergence area in next 10, 15 and 20 years from now The impact of submergence area in projected year will be huge because more than 690 Ha of settlement will be totally covered by seawater in 2021, more than 887 Ha in 2026, and more than 1,549 Ha in 2031. So that with ±649 Ha of building and it surrounding that will covered permanently in 2021, ±846 Ha in 2026 and ±857 Ha in 2031. That just the landuse which utilized by human primarily, not secondarily to fulfill their need. Complete properties that will be covered permanently by sea water in next 10, 15, and 20 years can be seen in table 4.6. Table 4.6.
