Merapi is one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia. Some of the rivers that the origin is located at Mt. Merapi have a large amont of sediment resorces after erption in October-November 010. The total volme of sediment is estimated at 130 million m 3.The deposited sediment s to the downstream area as a debris or bed load transport in high density. Few stdies considered downstream change along volcanic rivers de to a high density of bed load transport. Using nmerical simlation, the impact of high concentration of bed-load transport is applied in Progo River, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The reslts show that the high bed-load transport rate increases the mid-channel bar grow rate and the bed degradation near the bank toe. The increase of bed degradation is an important parameter of bank erosion process. Frthermore, the bed morphology on the downstream after 010 erption of Mt. Merapi shold be considered intensively. 015 The Athors.

The presence of debris increases the possibility riverbank erosion in some river reach, casing significant damage to varios infrastrctre and river strctres. Hence, the secondary disaster in term of rainfall indced debris may occr in long term period. Using nmerical model, this research is to investigate lahar occrrence as a spply of bed-load transport and its impact on riverbed deformation near the bank toe. The bed degradation at the vicinity of the bank slope which increases in the relative river bank height has a significant inflence on the stability of the bank. 1.. Stdy Area The watershed area of Progo River is arond 17,43 sqare kilometers. Several tribtaries of Progo River are located in the Mt. Merapi. The irrigation water of Sleman and Klon Progo Distric is taken from the river. Many strctres, for example, bridges, railway bridges, cross the river. Therefore, the sstainability of the river shold be monitored by Yogyakarta government. De to the major erption in October 010, the sediment spply is more than the eqilibrim condition. The river reaching of Progo River and located in Bantaris chosen in order to examine the interaction of channel geometry, sediment spply and bed deformation. Fig. 1 shows the Progo River system..

Simlation Model 3.1. Simlation Data Figre 1 shows the grain size of riverbed material. The discharge for all simlation is 115 m 3 /s. The bondary of downstream model end is the water stage with the initial condition is at the normal depth. 3.. Simlation Scenario Fig.. Grain size distribtion of riverbed material The river bed deformations were compared by applying three conditions of bed-load transport spply at the pstream model. First condition is the bed-load spply which is same as the potential eqilibrim sediment transport rate, qb. The volme is 100% qb namely Case1. The second and third conditions are the bed-load transport that is more than qb. The bed-load transport spplies are 15% qb and 150% qb and named as Case and Case 3, respectively. The first case describes the river when there is no sediment spply from the pstream area. The second and third cases represent the river when the has sediment spply from deposited sediment at the pstream area. To evalate the bed deformation along the vicinity of bank slope, the changes of elevation near the bank toe are investigated. The grid is developed to represent the initial channel topography.

Reslts and Discssions Figre 4, 5 and 6 show the long profile of the right bank toe in Case 1, Case and Case 3, respectively. The solid line indicates the initial elevation and the dash line indicates the elevation after 1 hor simlation. At the 00 m distance from pstream end model (see the circle dash line), comparing to Case 1, the bed degradation in Case and Case 3 is deeper. It may be de to the impact of a mid-channel bar growing at arond this station. It means that the possibility of river bank will not only collapse bt also increase. Arond station 600 m, the aggradations process de to sediment spply can be seen clearly..4 m (a) Elevation after 1 hor Fig. 4.

On the left bank toe, the deformation is a similar phenomenon comparing to the right bank toe. Some locations are aggravated de to a large of sediment spply. Moreover, the occrrence of bed degradation is deeper than when the sediment spply is in eqilibrim condition. Elevation after 1 hor Fig. 7.

10 Pji Harsanto / Procedia Environmental Sciences 8 ( 015 ) Conclsions According to the simlation reslts, after the erption of Mt. Merapi in 010, Progo River has not only sedimentation problem bt also bed degradation. The bed degradation is the main parameter in bank erosion process. Frthermore, the changes of river morphology (bank erosion) shold be considered by the government to manage the river strctre, for example bridge abtment, revetment, and so on.
