Description
Summary:Watersheds are complex natural-human systems because they involve various interacting biogeophysical and socio-economic-cultural components. Degradation of forest, land, and water resources and population pressure have caused a decline in watershed sustainability, which is the biggest obstacle to sustainable watershed management in most developing countries in the humid tropics. The purpose of this study was to analyze the sustainability of the Brantas Watershed. Secondary data collection includes water quality. Data collection was carried out at Perum Jasa Tirta 1. Data analysis was carried out based on a sustainability index that included aspects of water quality. The study showed that the water quality of the Brantas River has decreased and is currently at class 4 (lowest) quality. The sustainability of the Brantas River Basin has decreased and, in 2023, will be in the low category.
