Analisis Indeks Kekeringan Meteorologis Lahan Gambut Di Kabupaten Pelalawan Menggunakan Google Earth Engine (GEE)
Meteorological drought is a type of drought caused by low precipitation, measured based on the level of dryness relative to normal or average conditions, as well as the duration of the dry period. This study aims to analyze the meteorological drought index on peatland in Pelalawan Regency using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform and utilizing satellite precipitation data. One of the sources of precipitation data used is the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite. The research location is in Pelalawan Regency, which predominantly consists of peatland, particularly in the districts of Kuala Kampar, Teluk Meranti, Kerumutan Pelalawan, and Bunut, all of which are highly vulnerable to fires. The calculation of the meteorological drought index is conducted using the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) method based on monthly rainfall data. The results of the SPI index are then correlated with hotspot occurrences and mapped using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). This study finds that the SPI drought index for each period shows a nearly similar pattern, with insignificant differences, and there is no overlap between dry and wet periods. Peatland fires appear to be influenced not only by the meteorological drought index, as fires continue to occur even when SPI values indicate wet conditions. Additionally, while some identified fire events are indeed influenced by SPI values, they are more significantly affected by SPI values from previous periods.
