Risk analysis of landslide disaster in Pati Regency, Central Java Province

Abstract

Abstract Landslide is one of the disasters that often occurs in Pati Regency. This study aims to analyze the risk of landslides in Pati Regency. The landslide risk index in Pati Regency is carried out by analyzing three components: the hazard index, vulnerability, and capacity according to BNPB head regulation No. 2 the year 2012 concerning General Guidelines for Disaster Risk Assessment. The results showed a high landslide risk index in 49 villages out of 406 throughout Pati Regency. The sub-districts with the highest landslide risk index are Sukolilo District with nine villages and Gunungwungkal with seven villages. The high-risk index in the area is influenced by the high danger of landslides and the lack of existing capacity. The recommended recommendations include installing EWS, socializing knowledge on disaster preparedness, improving emergency response management, increasing community participation, evaluating RTRW, and reviewing vegetation types.
