Indonesia: Threat Of Abrasion On The Northern Coastline Of West Java

A portrait of a local resident standing in front of her house was impacted by seawater abrasion at Pantai Bahagia Village, Muara Gembong District, Bekasi Regency, West Java Province, Indonesia, May 15, 2023. Local folks who live on that area have to live side by side with high tide levels, which frequently saturate their settlement. This phenomenon occurs because of land subsidence. The results of numerous studies say that land subsidence in north Bekasi can reach 20 cm per year, with an average of 10 cm per year. Abrasion impact now haunts local citizens every day to the point that water cannot be used for daily necessities. (Photo by Kevin Herbian/NurPhoto)
