Studi Kenyamanan Untuk Aktivitas di Lanskap Hutan Kota UGM Studi Kasus: Klaster Agro UGM
Abstract: The phenomenon of
global warming has caused discomfort activity in urban area. Greening in open
space of Gadjah Mada University campus has been developed as urban forest
landscape that supporting good environment produced high comfort for activity
and enhancing urban conservation. The research objectives were to observe the
comfort for activity in urban forest landscape, to observe the canopy coverage
of urban forest and to reveal the effect of tree canopy coverage to the comfort
for activity. Data collection was carried out by visual observation,
questioner, micro climate measurement, and hemispherical images of the tree canopy
coverage. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics. The tree canopy
coverage was calculated by the Sky View Factor (SVF) of hemispherical images.
Research results showed that activity types in the urban forest landscape were
study (10%), sitting (37%), meeting (39%), others (14%) at spread of sitting
areas. Some factors that affect the comfort for activity in urban forest
landscape were aesthetic, lower temperature, fresh air, inspirited area, and
listened bird voice. The respondents (82%) said that the urban forest landscape
was comfort for activity at whole time of 07.00 - 17.00 by the condition of
local climate presented by air temperature at 29.7 - 32.6°C, normal humidity at
61.5 -74.1% and breeze wind velocity at 0.6 - 2.8 m/s. Tree canopy of urban
forest landscape had covered more than 50% identified by Sky View Factor (SVF
0.026-0.446). The tree canopy coverage of urban forest created tree shaded
areas for the activities which showed thermally comfort because of microclimate
controlled by urban forest.
