Abstract

Area in the active volcano is blessed with abundant land resources. Mt. Kelud eruption in 2014 directly changes the arrangement of land resources. The changes in the land surface conditions must be balanced with the new management to enable the communities enjoying the benefits. The research has aim to identify the landform changes and to get an appropriate management in the dynamic land resource in active volcanic area. The research conducted through field survey method based on physical environment. The field survey proposes to identify the distribution of land resources. We interpret the distribution of land resources based on topographic map, land use/land cover data, and Landsat imagery. In deep interviews were done to get information about social life of the community, risk perception of Mt. Kelud eruption and benefits of Mt. Kelud eruption. The results showed that land resources in Mt. Kelud are dynamic due to the eruption. The dynamic occurs in the arrangements of land resources in the area of Mt. Kelud. The new arrangement of land resources consists of new landscape and new material. We found that the new resource has a high value for the local community welfare. For example, the local community in Mt. Merapi utilize te material and new landscape to improve their welfare. We offer integrated strategy to manage the new land resources. The integrated strategy manages the sustainability of the land resource and improves the community welfare.
