Abstract :
The purpose of this research was to know the
condition of vulnerability of Gorontalo City to flood
inundation, based on land slope through a hydro
geomorphology study approach. The sampling method by
dividing the research area size 250 x 250 m2 (based on the
grid). Land unit approach was used in the analysis
technique. The results of this study concluded that the
area of Gorontalo City, (1) slope of 3507.84 Ha or 52.6%
of the total area with very flat class-details (class L1, L2,
L3 and L4), (2) Class Flat to very sloping class this slope
of the region 0-7%; (3) Very flat-sloped class or of this
52.6%, potential to floods of 965.8 Ha (27.5%) of the plain
area or 14.4% of Gorontalo City (4) Class is quite steep
(Class L5> 8%) area of 2782.18 ha in the form of hills /
mountains
