Kegiatan penambangan timah di daratan di wilayah Kabupaten Belitung Timur sudah berlangsung sejak lama terutama di wilayah Kecamatan Kelapa Kampit. Banyak penduduknya bekerja sebagai penambang timah, namun kegiatan penambangan tersebut semakin berkurang seiring dengan adanya kebijakan terkait penambangan yang lebih ke arah pelestarian lingkungan dan adanya kegiatan reklamasi dan revegetasi yang dilakukan di lahan pasca tambang timah. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis gambaran perubahan penutup lahan dan menganalisis pola matapencaharian di Kecamatan Kelapa Kampit. Data penelitian yang digunakan terdiri dari data primer dan data sekunder. Data primer di antaranya berupa citra satelit Landsat TM akuisisi tahun 1995 dan Landsat 8 akuisisi tahun 2015 serta data hasil wawancara penduduk lokal. Data sekunder berupa data data dari pemerintah daerah setempat, dan lain-lain. Metode pemisahan obyek penutup lahan menggunakan teknik klasifikasi unsupervised (klasifikasi tak terbimbing). Setelah dilakukan proses reclass, maka dihasilkan 8 (delapan) kelas penutup lahan diantaranya: Awan (no data), Hutan, Ladang/Semak, lahan tambang, permukiman, perkebunan dan tubuh air. Analisis deskriptif kualitatif dilakukan untuk melihat hubungan perubahan penutup lahan dengan pola mata pencaharian masyarakat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terjadi kondisi yang kontradiktif antara lahan tambang dan hutan dengan lahan perkebunan kelapa sawit. Kondisi luasan lahan tambang dan hutan dari tahun 1994 – 2015 mengalami penurunan, sedangkan luasan lahan perkebunan kelapa sawit mengalami peningkatan yang cukup signifikan. Seiring dengan perubahan penutup lahan tersebut, terjadi penurunan jumlah buruh harian lepas dimana penambang inkonvensional termasuk didalamnya. Terjadi peralihan mata pencaharian yang awalnya mengandalkan penambangan, saat ini menjadi semakin banyak pilihan mata pencaharian yang dapat dipilih oleh masyarakat Kecamatan Kelapa Kampit.

The study deals with the spatio-temporal distribution of heavy metals in the sediments of Chagan lake, Northeast China. The pollution history of heavy metals is studied simultaneously through the 210Pb dating method by analyzing the characteristic of As, Hg, Cd, Cr, Ni, Cu, Pb, and Zn concentration-depth profiles. The potential ecological risk index (RI) and geo-accumulation index (Igeo) were used to evaluate the contamination degree. Principal component analysis (PCA), based on the logarithmic transformation and isometric log-ratio (ilr) transformed data, was applied with the aim of identifying the sources of heavy metals. The element concentrations show that the heavy metals are enriched in the surface sediment and sediment core with a varying degree, which is higher in the surficial residue. The results of Igeo indicate that the Cd and Hg in the surface sediment have reached a slightly contaminated level while other elements, uncontaminated. The results of RI show that the study area can be classified as an area with moderate ecological risk in which Cd and Hg mostly contribute to the overall risk. For the sediment core, the 210Pb dating results accurately reflect the sedimentary history over 153 years. From two evaluation indices (RI and Igeo) calculated by element concentration, there is no contamination, and the potential ecological risk is low during this period. The comparative study between raw and ilr transformed data shows that the closure effect of the raw data can be eliminated by ilr transformation. After that, the components obtained by robust principal component analysis (RPCA) are more representative than those obtained by PCA, both based on ilr transformed dataset, after eliminating the influence of outliers. Based on ilr transformed data with RPCA, three primary sources could be inferred: Cr, Ni, As, Zn, and Cu are mainly derived from natural sources; the main source of Cd and Hg are associated with agricultural activities and energy development; as for Pb, it originated from traffic and coal-burning activities, which is consistent with the fact that the development of tourism, fishery, and agriculture industries has led to the continuous increasing levels of anthropogenic Pb in Chagan Lake. The summarized results and conclusions will undoubtedly enhance the governmental awareness of heavy metal pollution and facilitate appropriate pollution control measures in Chagan Lake.

The advancing of glaciers is a manifestation of dynamic glacial instability. Glaciers in the Tien Shan region, especially in the Central Tien Shan, show instability, and advancing glaciers have been recently detected. In this study, we used Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI remote sensing images to identify glaciers in the Tien Shan region from 1990 to 2019 and found that 48 glaciers advanced. Among them, thirty-four glaciers exhibited terminal advances, and 14 glaciers experienced advances on the tributary or trunk. Ten of the glaciers experiencing terminal advances have been identified as surging glaciers. These 48 glaciers are distributed in the western part of the Halik and Kungey Mountain Ranges in the Central Tien Shan, and Fergana Mountains in the Western Tien Shan, indicating that the Tien Shan is also one of the regions where advancing and surging glaciers are active. From 1990 to 2019, a total of 169 times advances occurred on 34 terminal advancing glaciers in the Tien Shan region; the highest number of advancing and surging of glaciers occurred in July (26 and 14 times, respectively). With reference to the existing literature and the present study, the surge cycle in the Tien Shan is longer than that in other regions at high latitudes in Asia, lasting about 35–60 years. Surging glaciers in the Tien Shan region may be affected by a combination of thermal and hydrological control. An increase in temperature and precipitation drives surging glaciers, but the change mechanism is still difficult to explain based on changes in a single climate variable, such as temperature or precipitation.
