Soekarno Km. 21 Jatinangor, Sumedang 45363, Indonesia Abstract Sangiang Island, nestled in the Sunda Strait of Indonesia, is a hidden gem renowned for its unique geological and ecological features. The island is characterized by its volcanic origins, with dramatic coastal cliffs and rugged landscapes shaped by ancient volcanic activity, offering valuable insights into the Earth^s past volcanic processes. A systematic investigation has been conducted in several selected sites on Sangiang Island, including inventory, characterization, classification, assessment, and evaluation. This study aims to assess the potential of Sangiang Island as a geoheritage and geotourism destination. The sites examined include Sangiang Harbour, Begal Hill, Harapan Summit, Panjang Beach, and Bat Cave. Both qualitative and quantitative assessments were conducted, focusing on geoheritage values like Intrinsic and Scientific Value, Educational Value, Economic Value, Conservation Value, and Added Value. The analysis reveals that Sangiang Island^s geodiversity holds promising potential as geoheritage, with final scores ranging from 56.94% to 69.44%. Despite its uniqueness, Sangiang Island remains slightly renowned due to lack of maintenance and promotion. Geoconservation efforts are necessary at all these sites to support research, education, and geotourism.

The Potential of Tropical Sea Salt Farming for the Development of Geo-educational tourism in Indonesia Tukul Rameyo Adi (a), Anwar Kurniawan (b), Mahfud Effendi (c) a) senior salt expert at Kristal Laut Nusantara Cooperation b) Executive Director at Anta Tirta Karisma Company c) Professor at University of Trunojoyo Madura Abstract The production of salt from seawater by communities in Indonesia has been documented since the seventh century in the reliefs of the Borobudur temple. This practice is most prevalent in the islands of Madura and the northern coast of Java. This method of producing salt from seawater is referred to as the Maduris method. Additionally, traditional seawater salt production is observed in various regions of Indonesia, including Aceh, Bali, Nusa Tenggara, and Sulawesi. We propose ^Tropical Sea Salt Farming^ as a potential branding term for seawater salt produced by communities in Indonesia. The term is used to describe the method of salt production on the farm, which is influenced by the surrounding natural conditions. It also refers to the type of salt production and its utilisation, which is generally related to local culture, such as food, health and fitness. It is not used to describe the production of industrial salt chlor-alkali plants (CAPs), which are currently produced on a large scale in Australia, China and India. Despite the tropical sea salt farming industry^s slower development compared to that of CAP salt, the necessity for products derived from tropical sea salt has increased significantly in recent times, particularly in response to the demands of a healthy lifestyle and the growing trend towards a more natural way of living. A number of novel approaches have been initiated with the objective of manufacturing a diverse range of products derived from tropical sea salt farming, with a particular focus on the tourism and creative economy sectors. Amed Salt represents a case in point, being a product of tropical sea salt that has been granted Geographical Indication status. This paper will examine the potential of tropical sea salt farming in the development of more comprehensive geo-educational tourism in Indonesia, with particular reference to previous developments and initiatives, especially those of Trunojoyo University and Kristal Laut Nusantara on Madura Island, Bali Island, Cirebon and Indramayu districts. Furthermore, this paper addresses the constraints and conditions of the social-ecological system (SES) that must be enabled, and it presents a model of geo-educational tourism based on tropical sea salt farming through multi-stakeholder partnerships in which the community plays a pivotal role.

Their efforts have led to the designation of Belitong Geopark as a UNESCO Global Geopark, a new environmentally-based tourism brand. The comfort of the climate, coupled with the natural beauty of the tourist attractions, plays a crucial role in influencing tourists^ decisions to visit a destination. This study delves into the level of climate comfort for tourism using two different methods: the Tourism Climate Index (TCI) and the Thermal Humidity Index (THI). The climate parameters that form the basis of the climate comfort index, such as air temperature, rainfall, wind speed, length of sunshine, and cloud cover, are part of the thermal, physical, and aesthetic aspects of climate comfort weighting. The climate data from 1991 to 2020 were obtained from the H.AS Hanandjoeddin Meteorological Station. According to the THI, the comfortable months are December to February, while the TCI results indicate that the comfortable period starts in January and February. In conclusion, this study recommends that the best time for tourists to visit Belitong Geopark is in January.

Danau Rayo from the geoscience perspective: Is it a product of a meteor crater or fairy circle hydrogen? Marlinda Saria(a), Budhi Setiawan (b*), Idarwati (b) a) Head of Tourism and Culture Agency, Musi Rawas Utara Regency, South Sumatera b) Program Study of Engineering Geology, Faculty of Engineering, University of Sriwijaya *budhi.setiawan[at]unsri.ac.id Abstract Danau Rayo, one of the candidate^s geosites, is located in Kecamatan Rupit, Musi Rawa Utara Regency, and is located in the Kasai Formation, which is a Quaternary volcanic product. This study intends to find Danau Rayo^s uniqueness from the perspective of geoscience from a morphological approach. The shape of the lake, which looks like a perfect circle with a diameter of about 592 meters in the middle of a plain that is not connected to a river, shows its geological uniqueness. The results of 3-dimensional modeling show that there are elevations on several sides, especially the southeast side, allowing the hypothesis that the lake is a meteor fall that formed a crater. On the lake^s west side, Pre-Tertiary hills allow mineral dissolution below the surface. The dissolution process involving microbes that consume more methane can cause a decrease in the land surface in the form of a circle, like the appearance of Lake Rayo.

Detail Geosite Mapping: Issues and Challenges in Malaysia Che Aziz Ali1,5, Abd Rasid Jaapar2,6,*, Mohd Faruq Syahmi Md Aripin1, James Bachat3 and Mohd Sazaly Basarian4 1Geoscience Consult Sdn Bhd, Selangor, Malaysia 2Geomapping Technology Sdn Bhd, Selangor, Malaysia 3Borneo Geoscience Sdn Bhd, Sarawak, Malaysia 4Borneo Earth Science Technology Sdn Bhd, Sabah, Malaysia 5National Committee for Geopark Development, Malaysia 6Institute of Geology Malaysia Abstract Abstract: Geosites are the building blocks of a geopark which determine its uniqueness as well as the identity. Distribution of geosites also very crucial in delineating geopark boundary. In most geoparks, geosites are not properly evaluated let alone properly mapped. This phenomenon occurs due to lack of understanding of the basic concept of geosite and the realization of its importance. Geosites in most geoparks are marked as points on geopark maps without clear boundary. This has caused some geosites being lost due to encroachment and infrastructure development as the authorities do not have any clue as to what the areal extent of a given geosite is. Hence geosite mapping is very crucial not only it can provide a guide for infrastructural development but also for geosite management, development and conservation. In Malaysia, the geosite mapping drive has been started that focus on detailed mapping of geodiversity features of most important geosite to determine geodiversity distribution which is important for demarcate the geosite boundary. The map also will be used to determine geotourism potential and how to develop and conserve each geosite. This paper presents several challenges in carrying out detail geosite mapping that we are facing- among others are rough terrain conditions, land ownership and lack of professional personals who really understand the basic geosite mapping concept.

This interest increased particularly after the discovery of petroleum in the area, making it the only oil field operating on Sulawesi Island. In this region, a rather rare geological phenomenon occurs: obduction, which has brought ophiolite rocks from the eastern arm of Sulawesi (East Sulawesi Ophiolite belt) into collision with the Banggai-Sula microcontinent. This obduction process has resulted in various rock exposures related to the formation of the Luwuk landmass, the presence of nickel minerals, and the emergence of petroleum. The local government of Luwuk Regency then proposed to designate this area as a geopark with the aim of conserving its various rock exposures, developing earth science-based education, and empowering the community through tourism enhancement. Based on field observations, there are three geosites related to ophiolites, two geosites related to the Banggai-Sula microcontinent, two geosites related to post-collision sedimentation, and two geosites related to obduction and fault zones that will be proposed as geoheritage sites. All of these sites are located in areas with good access, beautiful views, and highly unique exposures. They could all become attractive locations for conservation, study, and development into tourist destinations.

Diponegoro No 57, Bandung, West Jawa, Indonesia, 40122 Abstract Geopark is a sustainable development concept based on geological diversity, geological heritage, cultural diversity and biodiversity for conservation, education, and sustainable economic development. The Global Unesco Network has validated the Kebumen Geopark and its status as an aspiring UNESCO Global Geopark. Geopark management prepares the geotrail at the beginning before validation. Geotourism is a tourism activity based on ABC components in the form of geological diversity (Abiotic), geological heritage (Abiotic), biological diversity (Biotic), and culture diversity (Culture), which are related to geological diversity. Geotrail is a geotourism route arranged with a certain theme to connect ABC components and become a fun/melodic and educational tourist route. One of the geotrails being prepared is in the Karangsambung area, a trace of the ancient subduction zone with its rich geodiversity. The Karangsambung area is the best evidence of plate tectonic theory, along with the oldest rocks in Java. The True Mother Earth of Java means that the oldest rocks in Java are exposed and can be used for geotourism about the concept of plate tectonics. Geotrail creation is carried out based on the results of scientific value analysis, potential education value, tourism value and degradation risk. It is hoped that by following this geotrail, tourists can gain an exciting experience in understanding the concept of plate tectonics combined with cultural and biological diversity.

Jati Agung, Lampung Selatan, Lampung, Indonesia (d) Teknik Geologi, Universitas Jambi Jl. Jambi - Muara Bulian No.KM. 15, Mendalo Darat, Kec. Jambi Luar Kota, Kabupaten Muaro Jambi, Jambi, indonesia Abstract Suoh is an area of very high geological uniqueness located in the Semangka pull-apart depression. Geopark designation requires a comprehensive understanding of the natural and cultural elements that contribute to its uniqueness and sustainability. Therefore, it is necessary to characterize the geotourism potential (geodiversity, biodiversity and cultural diversity) that exists in the Suoh Aspiring Geopark area. This research tries to identify and develop this potential by using a spatial and regional complex approach. Technically, the method used is the Modi&#64257-ed Geosite Assessment Model (M-GAM) combined with Hot-Spot Analysis to obtain spatial and non-spatial groupings of geotourism potential. Clustering is done using K-Means Cluster Analysis. The results showed that the existing geosites spatially form a cluster and can be used to determine the theme of tourism activities to strengthen the pillars of the geopark. Geopark development is hampered by several obstacles, including poor access and geosite management. In general, strategies to strengthen stakeholders and optimize research are needed to strengthen geopark pillars. In addition, it is also important to establish linkages between geodiversity, biodiversity and cultural diversity to increase the importance of Suoh Geopark.

Strengthening people literacy by using an art and culture-based approach to the public education action on Geopark Yanti Heriyawati (a), Kirana Kejora (b), Tukul Rameyo Adi (c), Sudiyanto Satjahdiningrat (d) a) Director for Postgraduate Program, Institute of Indonesia Arts and Culture, Bandung b) Founder of Elang Nuswantara Community c) Executive Director for Barunastra Foundation d) Chairperson of Pena Nusantara Community Abstract Public education represents a crucial element in geopark development, with the objective of fostering peoples literacy regarding to the significance of geoparks, encompassing geological, biological, and cultural values. Enhanced peoples geopark literacy results in heightened public awareness of the existence and distinctive characteristics of geoparks, facilitating a more nuanced comprehension of the geological processes, biodiversity, and cultural values inherent to geoparks. The term of PEOPLE LITERACY ON GEOPARK is defined as the level of awareness and understanding of the interrelationship between society and geoparks. It is therefore anticipated that public education about geoparks will foster a sense of belonging and responsibility for the preservation of geoparks, while also encouraging community participation in the management and development of geoparks. The application of an arts and culture approach to strengthen public literacy has been employed in numerous global initiatives, including the ocean literacy action within the framework of the IOC Ocean Decade of Science programme, with the objective of realising OUR OCEAN, OUR FUTURE, and climate literacy action based on a local community and indigenous people (LCIP) platform within the global climate change agenda. A comparable approach is employed in the 30 by 45 global conservation agenda through the Other Effective Area Based Conservation Measures (OECM) initiative with the objective of preserving the planet^s environment and biodiversity. This paper proposes an arts and culture approach to be applied in public education actions, based on the findings of prior research and studies, particularly those related to maritime cultural literacy, as conducted by Indonesia Art and Culture Institute of Bandung (ISBI) with the support of the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education between 2021 and 2023, and the writerpreneur program spearheaded by the Nusantara Eagle Community with the support of the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy since 2016. This approach draws inspiration from Indonesias situation as an archipelagic state that has a diversity of cultures, environments and resources. This paper also examines the constraints and socio-ecological conditions that require attention and presents insights gleaned from the analysis to inform policy recommendations and public education programs on geoparks, with a particular focus on policies and programs tailored for islands region.

MORPHOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE WAIRUHU RIVER WATERSHED IN QUARTERLY, TERTIARY, AND MESOZOIC AGED ROCKS IN THE FRAMEWORK OF ENCOURAGING ASPIRING GEOPARKS IN AMBON CITY, MALUKU PROVINCE Nabila Kalsum Tuanany -Emi Sukiyah - Ghazi Oktavidi Muslim - Dicky Muslim - Najmuddin Haikal Fikri Department Geological Engineering, Geological Enginerring, Sumedang, Jatinangor Abstract Maluku Province is a region that does not yet have a serious geopark, due to the lack of research and publications that support the needs of a region in developing geoparks. Wairuhu watershed is located in Ambon City, Maluku Province. Research using the morphometric method is intended to determine the morphometric characteristics of the watershed and sub-watersheds in Quarternary, Tertiary, and Mesozoic rock with 8 sub-watersheds. The method used in this research is the calculation of Sub-Watershed Dimensions, Linear Morphometry, and Area Morphometry. Linear Morphometry uses the parameter of Branch Ratio (Rb), while the Morphometric Area uses the parameters of Drainage Density (Dd). Analysis of the result of dimension analysis show that the largest sub-watershed sequences are Mesozoic, Tertiary, and Quaternary age. The results of the calculation of the Branching Ratio (Rb) show that rivers are influenced by structure and some are not, large river branches are influenced by lithology with Rb values 2 - 6. Drainage Ratio (Dd) shows that tertiary-aged rocks have high permeability due to their lithology of volcanic breccias and tuffs with relatively mild resistance levels with Dd values 1.97 - 4.64. This geomorphic index data will help submit geopark assessments and supporting data for disasters.
