Abstract

The north coast of East Java has high human activities and needs. These human needs include opening new land for housing areas, so that some mangrove areas have begun to be converted into residential areas. This can directly cause ecological impacts that threaten the sustainability of the coastal environment, but on the other hand, mangrove areas on the north coast of East Java are also developed as conservation and tourism areas. The purpose of this study is to determine changes in mangrove area and changes in coastlines in the northern coastal region of East Java during the period 2013 to 2019 based on Geographical Information Systems (GIS) using the Supervised-Maximum Likelihood image classification method. The results of this study showed that the largest change in mangrove forest area was in Sidoarjo Regency by 95%, while the lowest change in mangrove forest area was in Tuban Regency at 7.20%.
