The Effect of Regional Capacity on Environmental Losses Due to Drought Disaster in Regencies / Cities in Indonesia

Indonesia, which is in a tropical monsoon climate that is very sensitive to the E1 Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) climate anomaly, causes pm 48 million hectares or 25 of Indonesia's land area to be affected by the danger of drought. Regional capacity becomes the measure of a region in efforts to reduce losses due to disasters. This study aimed to measure the effect of regional capacity and drought hazard variables on reducing environmental losses due to drought. The analytical method used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis. The results of this study indicate that the r square value of the results of multiple linear regression analysis is 0.533, so that the independent variable affects the dependent variable simultaneously by 53, while the variables that have a significant effect on environmental losses due to drought include regional capacity (t=-1,981), the area of drought hazard (t= 2.861) and the area of scarcity of regional aquifers (t=6.193), the three independent variables have a value of t more than t table so that they have a partial significant effect on environmental losses due to drought. © 2020 IEEE.
