ABSTRAK

Aktiviti guna tanah di kawasan lembangan adalah salah satu faktor yang mendorong kepada kemerosotan kualiti air sungai akibat daripada hakisan tanih. Potensi hakisan tanih di kawasan lembangan Sungai Bilut, Raub, Pahang yang menjadi sumber bekalan air minuman utama di daerah Raub boleh ditentukan dengan menggunakan integrasi model Semakan Semula Persamaan Kehilangan Tanih Universal (RUSLE) dan Sistem Maklumat Geografi (GIS). Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan potensi hakisan tanih dan faktor utama yang mempengaruhi kadar hakisan tanih. Kajian ini melibatkan penggunaan data sekunder yang terdiri daripada data hujan, data siri tanih dan topografi bagi menghasilkan faktor kehakisan hujan (R), kebolehhakisan tanih (K), serta panjang dan kecuraman cerun (LS). Faktor litupan tumbuhan (C) dan amalan pemuliharaan (P) pula dijana daripada imej satelit Landsat 8 (2014). Keputusan kajian menunjukkan nilai faktor R di kawasan kajian ialah 8927.68-9775.18 MJ mm ha-1 jam-1 tahun-1, nilai K ialah 0.036-0.500 tan jam-1 MJ-1 mm-1, nilai LS ialah 0-514, nilai C ialah 0.03-0.80 dan nilai P ialah 0.1-0.7. Kawasan yang mempunyai potensi hakisan sangat rendah hingga rendah meliputi 81%, manakala potensi hakisan tanih sederhana hingga sangat tinggi meliputi 19% daripada keseluruhan kawasan kajian. Model yang dihasilkan mempunyai ketepatan sebanyak 81%. Faktor utama yang mempengaruhi berlakunya hakisan tanih di kawasan kajian adalah faktor topografi, litupan tumbuhan dan kebolehhakisan tanih. Keputusan menunjukkan analisis integrasi RUSLE dan GIS berpotensi dalam penentuan potensi hakisan tanih untuk kawasan luas yang mempunyai pelbagai jenis guna tanah, topografi dan jenis tanih.

ABSTRACT

Land use activities within catchment area are one of the factors contributing to deterioration of river water quality due to soil erosion. Potential soil erosion at the Sungai Bilut catchment, which is the main source of water supply in Raub district, can be determined using Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and Geographical Information System (GIS). The aims of this research were to determine the potential soil loss and also to determine the main factors that influence the rate of soil erosion. This study involved analysis of secondary data of rainfall, soil series and topography data to generate factors of rainfall erosivity (R), soil erodibility (K) and length and steepness of slope (LS). Vegetation coverage and conservation practices factors were generated from satellite image of Landsat 8 (2014). The results showed that the R factor value in the study area is 8927.68-9775.18 MJ mm ha-1 h-1 yr-1, K value is 0.0036-0.500 tones h-1 MJ-1 mm-1, LS value is 0-514, C value is 0.03-0.80 and P value is 0.1-0.7. The area that has very low to low erosion potential is 81%, while medium to very high erosion potential is 19% of total study area. The model has an accuracy of 81%. The main factors that contribute to the potential of soil erosion in the study area are topography, vegetation cover, and soil erodibility. The results indicated the potential of integration of RUSLE and GIS analysis in determination of potential soil erosion in wide area consisting of various land use, topography and soil type.
