ABSTRACT
DAVIK (M1A113014).Study Of Infiltration And Soil Permeability In WatershedWanggu Province Southeast Sulawesi (Guided byLA ODE ALWI andUMARODE HASANIas mentors first and second).
The watershed serves as a regulation of te hydrological cycle that isaffected by land use. Land use can increase infiltration and soil permeability ratesand reduce surface flow to minimize flooding in watersheds. The purpuse of thisreseach is to knoe the ability of infiltration rate and soil permeability in watershedWanggu province southeast sulawesi. The determination of the poin of land uselocation is done by purposive sampling. The results of this study indicate thehighest infiltration rate is forest land agroforestry. For the infiltratian and soilpermeability with lowest criteria is the land use agriculture, underbrush andhousing. The infiltration and soil permeability in effection by the situation soilthat soil characters, the like presentation organic, bulk density, rate of water, soilporosity and texture.
Key Word: Watershed, Infiltration Rate, Soil Permeability, Land Uses.
