Abstract

The construction of a sea wall in the coastal area of Semarang City and Demak Regency is a government effort to reduce the disaster hazard due to tidal inundation and beach erosion in the coastal area of Semarang City (Genuk District) and Demak Regency (Sayung District). Instead of reducing hazard, the sea wall wich is integrated with the Semarang-Demak toll road also has the potential to cause environmental impacts. This will make the mangrove ecosystem inside the embankment disappear, as well as the potential for greenhouse gas impacts due to transportation activities and the growth of built-up areas around the embankments and toll roads. The greenhouse gas effect is usually characterized by an increase in the surrounding land surface temperature (LST). The aim of this research is to formulate a regression model based on spatial data that can be used to measure the impact of transportation activities and building intensity on LST. The data used in this study are the number of motorized vehicles crossing the main roads in Semarang City, and the LST obtained from the thermal infrared sensor band from Landsat 8 in 2013 and 2019. This model will be used to predict the environmental impact of the sea wall and Semarang-Demak Toll Road in the future. The regression model shows that the increase in the number of motorized vehicles and building intensity has a high contribution to LST. Every additional 1000 passenger cars on a road will make LST increase from 0.0150C to 0.0380C, whereas every 10% increase in land intensity will make LST increase by 0.030C. Based on the regression model, the existence of the sea wall and the Semarang-Demak toll road will have an environmental impact on the surrounding of the toll road, as indicated by an increase in the LST value of 300C from 260C previously. This model is expected to provide input for each stakeholder to mitigate the potential environmental impacts of the Semarang-Demak sea wall and toll road in the future, and hope that the Semarang-Demak sea wall and toll road will not have a systemic impact on the environment in the future
