Ecological Potential Analysis of Green Open Space (GOS) for the Karebos Field Complex Before and After Revitalization

Abstract

The study of cities and their relation to green open spaces is a topic that has received much attention in research, and green open spaces have become an essential element in urban models oriented toward sustainable cities. The development of green open spaces, both new and existing ones, and then developed or revitalized, is seen by various parties as much detrimental in terms of the ecological function of these green open spaces. Therefore this study aims to analyze changes in the ecological potential of the Karebosi Field Complex Green Open Space after revitalization, this study uses a survey method with descriptive analysis, the measuring instrument used to calculate the ecological potential with a table that contains a comparison of the ecological potential before and after revitalization, the value of water absorption potential, production oxygen, and carbon dioxide reduction per unit area was adopted from the results of previous studies. It was found that there was a decrease in water absorption by 3,087 M3/year, an increase in oxygen production by 8,573.91 tons/year, and a reduction in carbon dioxide of 11,745.69 tons/year after revitalization. Another beneficial result after the revitalization is that there are no more stagnant water in the rainy season and the existing green open space is much more representative than before the revitalization
