ABSTRACT
Fishermen's income is greatly affected by various factors, including
frequent natural disasters, such as strong winds, high waves, and heavy rains.
This phenomenon is of particular concern to fishermen on Atauro Island, as it
can have a significant impact on their livelihoods. This research aims to
analyze the impact of natural disasters on fishermen's income in Atauro Island
and measure the total effect of natural disasters on economic growth in their
livelihood. This research used quantitative methods with data collection
through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was
conducted using simple linear regression, hypothesis testing, and coefficient
of determination analysis. The results show that 17.6% of fishermen's income is
influenced by natural disasters, such as strong winds, high waves, and heavy
rain, with a double R value of 0.176. In contrast, 82.4% of fishermen's income
is influenced by other factors outside natural disasters. This finding
strengthens the research hypothesis that natural disasters have a significant
influence on fishermen's income on Atauro Island, so the null hypothesis (Ho)
is rejected. This research implies that mitigation measures and adaptation
strategies are needed for fishermen in Atauro Island to reduce the negative
impact of natural disasters on their income. Government policy interventions
and community support are essential to improve fishermen's economic resilience.
Keywords: Impact of
Natural Disasters, Development, Fishermen's Lives.
INTRODUCTION
Climate change and the impacts of natural
disasters are becoming an increasing global challenge. Phenomena such as
floods, heat waves, prolonged droughts, and earthquakes are becoming pressing
issues for many countries, especially developing countries (Middleton &
Sternberg, 2013). Climatologists predict that the Southeast Asian
region, including Timor Leste, will face increasingly hot and dry climatic
conditions, accompanied by irregular rainfall that can trigger flooding in
certain areas (Gusty et al., 2024). These changes affect not only environmental
sustainability but also the economic well-being of communities that depend on
natural resources.
Timor Leste, as a relatively newly independent
country in the 21st century, faces severe challenges in establishing economic
and social stability (Lundahl et al., 2019). The vulnerability of its lowland regions to
climate change exacerbates the risk of natural disasters such as floods, which
have significant impacts on the agriculture and fisheries sectors. Floods can
damage infrastructure, reduce agricultural productivity and cause people to
lose their homes and livelihoods (da Fonseca, 2015). On the other hand, the lack
of community awareness and knowledge on climate change adaptation and disaster
preparedness exacerbates the impact of such disasters. Under such conditions,
the sustainability of key economic sectors such as agriculture and fisheries becomes increasingly important to ensure economic stability
and community welfare.
Globally, climate change has led to an increase
in the intensity and frequency of natural disasters, which has a significant
impact on economies and people's well-being. The report (Timotiwu et al., 2021) shows that changing weather
patterns due to climate change have increased the risk of disasters in various
countries, including Timor Leste. The country, despite its abundant natural
resource potential, faces serious challenges in managing disaster risk and its
impact on key sectors of the economy, including agriculture and fisheries.
Fisheries, as one of the key sectors in Timor
Leste, plays an important role in supporting food security, increasing
community income, and providing employment (Lestari, 2014). However, the sector is highly
vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, such as sea level rise, changes in
ocean temperature, and other natural disasters that damage marine ecosystems.
On Atauro Island, known for its beautiful marine biodiversity, fisheries are
one of the mainstays of the local economy (Robie, 2015). However, the impacts of natural disasters such
as high waves and floods often disrupt fisheries activities and impact the
income of fishers.
In addition, agriculture is also an important
sector for Timor Leste's economy. Data from the Ministry of Agriculture and
Fisheries (Williams et al., 2018) shows that around 80% of the country's
population relies on the agricultural sector as their main livelihood. However,
climate change that affects rainfall patterns and soil fertility poses a major
challenge to the sustainability of this sector. As a new developing country,
Timor Leste requires transformation and modernization in these sectors to
support sustainable development (Joseph & Hamaguchi, 2014).
Several previous studies have explored the
impacts of climate change on key economic sectors in Timor Leste. (Lopes, 2021)
highlighted the importance of the agricultural sector in supporting food
security and creating jobs in the country. The
research suggests that the sector's vulnerability to climate change requires
better mitigation and adaptation strategies. Other research by (da Costa, 2024) discusses the impact of flooding on
infrastructure and livelihoods in vulnerable regions, including Timor Leste.
This research emphasizes the importance of community-based approaches in
dealing with disaster risks. However, specific studies on the impact of natural
disasters on fishers' income, particularly in Atauro Island, are limited.
The urgency of this research is high because the
impact of natural disasters on the fisheries sector is not fully understood,
especially in the context of Atauro Island. As a small island with a high
dependency on fisheries, Atauro faces an intensified risk of income loss due to
natural disasters. Furthermore, there is an urgent need to identify effective
mitigation strategies to support the economic resilience of fishers in the
region. By understanding the impact of natural disasters on fishers' income,
this research can make an important contribution to policy planning focused on
the sustainability of the fisheries sector in Timor Leste.
This research has novelty value by exploring the
relationship between the impact of natural disasters and fishermen's income in
Atauro Island specifically. Previous studies have mostly focused on the impact
of climate change on agriculture or fisheries in general. This research fills
this gap by providing a more in-depth analysis of how natural disasters affect
the lives of fishers on a small island, which has unique social and economic
characteristics.
Based on the above background, this research
aims to identify the impact of natural disasters on fishers' income in Atauro
Island, explore the factors that influence fishers' vulnerability to natural
disasters, such as infrastructure limitations, access to information, and local
community adaptation patterns, and develop strategic recommendations that can
be used by the government and other stakeholders to improve fishers' economic
resilience in the face of natural disasters. This research is expected to provide
a scientific basis for designing evidence-based disaster mitigation and
adaptation policies, assist the Timor Leste government and related agencies in
developing intervention programs to support the economic sustainability of
fishers, and provide guidance for local communities on effective adaptation
measures to reduce economic losses due to natural disasters.
RESEARCH METHOD
The research was conducted in the Beloi area, which leads to the sea with a
place that is a tourist attraction near the beach. Tourist attractions include
white sand including various ruins, to attract tourists to the place of Ataúro
Municipality, Ataúro-Vila Administrative Post, Suco Beloi, thus becoming a
tourist attraction for the community. The livelihood of the community is mostly
fishing. In this area the community gets a good income because every day people
go to buy fish in this place, especially tourists who travel in the area.
This place also has calm sea water and help from other places is provided
through information to expand the lives of people in this place. Important
advantages for their livelihoods are raising sea urchins, boek and catching
fish in the sea. The important thing is that it can provide a large income but
if it is not utilized according to needs or good management, it can also have
an adverse impact on life. According to the research it can be seen as follows
on the real coordinate line which is as follows; the longitude is 125.60995 and
the latitude is -8.22149.

According to (Sugiyono,
2013), says that population is the general
whole determined by the researcher to research in order to draw conclusions.
Therefore, the place or object of research is the population in Atauro
Municipality. General Population The subjects to be conducted in this research
are communities that have their own initiative to form fish farming groups. The
total community to be interviewed in this research is 211 people.
Sample
According to the scholar (Sugiyono,
2013), giving his definition that the sample is
the entire representative who represents the entire population in the area. Thus the researcher himself has completed the sample in this
research with a population of 211 people whom the researcher took to be the
sample of this research.
Research Methods
The method used in this research is quantitative method. Descriptive
method is a method that has the status of a group of people or objects with an
idea, a set of conditions or classes within a certain period of time. The
purpose of using this quantitative method is to create adequate imagination or
facts about the facts of the relationship between the phenomena under research (Sugiyono,
2013). Quantitative research involves
collecting data to find events and then organizing, tabulating, describing, and
explaining data collection (Waruwu,
2023).
Service Procedure
The type of research procedure used to collect data is by asking
questions to researchers and answering questions from the community.
Data Analysis Method
According to (Sugiyono,
2013) said that the data analysis method used
in this research is simple regression analysis to determine the relationship of
influence between the independent variable (Y) and the dependent variable (X).
Simple regression analysis in this research is an analysis that aims to
determine and identify the independent variable, namely natural disasters (X)
and income as the dependent variable (Y), the dependent variable is an
important factor for the development of fishermen and community life. Atauro

Research Design
This research design has an explanation related to the theory of
variable X and variable Y which are closely related. Based on the theory that
has been written, this research design is to look at natural disasters (X) and
the income of fishermen (X) who cultivate fish, which are strong variables that
affect community livelihoods. With the development of fisheries.
Based on research on the impact of natural disasters on increasing
fishermen's income on Atauro Island, the research design is as follows:

Figure 2. Research design
RESULT AND
DISCUSSION
Based on research conducted for one and a half
months, there were 211 fishermen respondents, 100% of whom worked as full-time
fishermen, with no other jobs, Figure 3 below explains the employment status of
respondents.

Figure 3. Percentage
of respondents' employment status
Based on figure 3. Eight percent of respondents 100%
are all employed so in figure 4 it can be seen that 100% of respondents work as
fishermen.

Figure
4. Service status as a fisherman
Based
on the survey results from 211 households, 35.5% had 6 household members, 32.2%
had 5 household members, 15.6% had 4 household members, and 10.9% had 7
household members. Household members aged thirteen years and above were given
the date.

Figure

This research also shows results on the budget spent
on food while at sea. Figure 5 below explains that: 96.7% of fishers spend less
than $1 to buy food to take to sea, 2% responded that fishers spend between $1
- 5 to buy food to take to sea.

Result of Data
Tabulation of Income Questionnaire Y
Based on the research results, 211 people became
respondents tabulating data on income variables (Y) a total of three (3) income
questions with components:
1. The fishermen's total income
will be used for operational costs plus monthly income.
2. The income received and
immediately become operational costs during fishing include (1) fishermen,
every day fishing using boats and engines using gasoline / diesel, (2)
fishermen, every day fishing to collect money to buy gasoline / diesel, (3)
fishermen become owners of boats and engines, (4) how many people work together
in fishing boats (assistants),
3. Fishing revenue during
December 2022 ($), (2) Fishing revenue during January 2023 ($), (3) Fishing
revenue during February 2023 ($)
The results showed that (1) fishermen, their
facilities go to sea every day looking for fish using boats and engines that
use gasoline / solar power.
Figure 7 below describes the fishing facilities
using boats and the type of engine used, 99.1% of motorized boat facilities use
gasoline energy, and less than 1% of fishers will use boats with solar energy
and no engine.

Figure 7. Ship facilities and engine types
As a result of having two (2) peskadors, there is no
need to pay for gasoline/diesel ($). Figura 4.6 shows that the facilities of
the fishermen are not limited to the type of machine they use, 57.3% of the
fishermen use gasoline between 11 and 20$, 42.2% of the fishermen use gasoline
between 10$ and 42.2% of the fishermen use gasoline.

Figure 8. Comparison of osan hodi sosa gasoline ba
machina bero nian.
The results show that (3) fishermen become boat and
engine owners, the income of which reflects the fishermen's facilities to catch
fish such as boats and engines. If a fisherman owns a boat and its engine, then
he will earn more income compared to a fisherman who does not have facilities
to catch fish (e.g. renting or leasing a boat and engine).
Figure 9 below explains the facilities of fishermen
who own boats and engines, 58.3% of fishermen own their own boats and engines,
41.7% of fishermen fish with the facilities of boat and engine owners from the
group.

Figure 9. Fishermen and owners of boats and their
engines
The results show that income
can be measured by (4) how many people work together in the fishing boat
(helper), with the thought that the more people who help, the more expenses are
considered. Figure 4.8 below describes the fisherman and his assistants who
work with him, 100% not more than 5 people. With a capacity of no more than
5 people.

Figure 10. The
fisherman and his assistant who works with him.
Every day fishermen fishing at sea need
ice (ice stone) to preserve fresh fish. The results showed that fishermen spend
money to buy ice 52.6% of the money $1-$5, and 46.9% is a withdrawal of less
than $1.

Figure 11. Fishermen buy ice to preserve the fish they
catch.

Figure 12. Distance of boats used by
fishermen to catch or capture fish.
Figure 12. lists the distance to sea to search
for fish to catch Based on the results, 65.9% use boats and machines to search
for fish with a distance of 2-4 mill, 33.2% of the distance to sea that use
boats and machines to search for fish with a distance of less than 1 mill.
In a
questionnaire sent to the Atauro community, during the month of December 2022,
respondents were asked to respond to the questionnaire with 100% of the total
number of fish in the community.

The income received by fishermen during
natural disasters in December is the result of research based on respondents'
answers showing that most of them received income results 55% received was
$50-$265, and 43% of the income they received was $266-$480. and the income
they could not get was $481-$700 only 2%.

In Figure 14 regarding
fishermen's income in January 2023 in this table respondents stated that in
January the highest percentage they received was 49% with a budget of $80-$253,
and the lowest percentage was 33% with a budget of $254-4. Six respondents also
said that the budget was large but with a small percentage of 18% with a budget
of $427-$600.

Results of Tabulation of
Natural Disaster Questionnaire Data (X)
Based on the results of the research, respondents on
the variable natural disaster data table (X) totaled 211 people, a total of
twelve (12) questions about natural disasters that researchers have prepared to
ask fishermen. The total number of natural disaster variables (X) can be seen
in the following table:
Based on the questionnaire data of natural disasters
that occurred in December 2022, respondents stated that they stopped fishing
activities 99.5% of the time for less than five days due to the large waves
impacted by natural disasters, and the small capacity of the boats, unable to
withstand the large waves.

Natural disasters that
occur on Atauro Island such as heavy rains have an impact on fishermen and
other activities cannot run. according to figure 4.16, 99.5% percentage of the
sea is less than five days. Especially in the field of fisheries, this has a big
impact on fishermen who cannot go to sea at sea.

Statistical Regression Results
Statistical regression results are statistical
methods used to define or analyze the character of the relationship between
dependent and independent variables (Qudratullah, 2013). can be seen in the following table:

Based on the results of regression statistics
Multiple R value to measure the relationship between the dependent variable and
the independent variable (Bhirawa, 2020), it is said that 17.6% of fishermen's income is influenced by natural
disasters they encounter during fishing, including natural disasters: strong
winds, high waves, and heavy rain. This research produces a multiple R value of
0.176 (Susanto, 2005) which can answer that we accept the hypothesis we have
prepared, that 17.6% of fishermen's income on Atauro Island is influenced by
natural disasters, strong winds, strong waves, and heavy rain, and 82.4% is
influenced by other factors (not natural disasters) that are not measured in
this survey.
This research produced an R Square value of 0.031
(Susanto, 2005) which means the square of the Multiple R value which means that
the income of fishermen on Atauro Island during December 2022 to February 2023
is 'e 3.11 explained by natural disasters, in other words 96.88% is explained
by other factors.
This research produced a standard error of 357.102
with a standard deviation of 361.055 (Susanto, 2005). The result of the
standard error value of 357.102 is lower than the standard deviation value of
361.055, meaning that the results of this regression model are feasible to use
as a model to estimate the income of fishermen on Atauro Island with the
estimated natural income. disaster.
Explanation of analysis
Linear regression analysis of variance is a
statistical analysis that tests for differences between means and groups. Anova
was invented by a statistician named Ronald Fisher (Fisher & McDonald, 2014). The meaning of Anova Analysis of Variance, as a statistical test
procedure, but the difference of Anova is that it can test the difference
between two groups.
Anova is used as an analytical tool to test the
researcher's hypothesis, the final result of anova is to see, and compare the
results of the Fsura and Ftabel values, using the fundamental basis for making
a decision to accept or reject the null hypothesis (Ho).
The basis for accepting or rejecting the F test is
as follows:
a. If the F statistical value
is smaller than the F table value at the 5% error level, then Ho is accepted.
b. If the F statistical value
is greater than the F table value at the 5% error level, it is rejected.
Based on the research results in Table 2, the
following comparison of the F statistical value (6.65) is greater than the F
Significance value (0.01) which indicates that this research rejects Ho (or
accepts H1) with the intention that the income of fishermen on Atauro Island
may be influenced by natural skills.
This research provides the results of the t test,
whose function is to see or evaluate the effect of the independent variable
(natural disasters) on the dependent variable (fishermen's income). The value
of t statistic in this research (-1.65) (see Table 4.2) is compared with the
value of t table at 211 respondents with 5% error rate (1.652). This result
indicates that the linear regression model obtained is feasible to predict
fishermen's income in Atauro Island using the natural disaster factor.
Table 2 of the results also shows the P value to
evaluate the significance of the statistical model formed by the regression.
The terms of using the P value for model evaluation are based on the following
notice:
a. If the P value is less than
0.05, the model is significant and we can reject Ho (or accept H1).
b. If the P value is greater
than 0.05, the model is not significant and we can accept Ho (or reject H1).
The research results in Table 2 show that the P
value of the natural disaster variable (0.01) is lower than the value of 0.05. so it can provide evidence that the regression model of this
research is appropriate for estimating fishermen's income based on natural
disasters.

The
ANOVA results of this research can form a simple linear regression equation as
follows:
Y = a + b1*X1
Fishermen's Income = -1,590.10 + 206.85*Natural Disaster1
The equation explains that if the value of natural disasters = zero
(no natural disasters), then the income of fishermen on Atauro Island is
constant with a value of -892.15$. However, if there are 12 points of natural
disasters (strong winds, heavy rain, big waves, dutante three months in a row)
the income of fishermen on Atauro Island affected is less than 1,590.10$. This
equation starts in quadrant 4 with a significant minus value (-1,590.10). Table
4.3 and Figure 4.22 below can further explain the relationship of fishermen's
income in Atauro Island with its natural disaster variables as factors
affecting the income. Fishermen's income on Atauro Island can
start to be positive if the natural disasters they face are only 4 points with
a value of $64.74.

Figure 26. Regression Line of the Impact
of Natural Disasters on Fishermen's Income on Atauro Island
CONCLUSION
The
conclusion of this research is that natural disasters occurring in the Atauro
Island region significantly affect fishermen's income. The results of simple
linear regression analysis showed that fishermen's income decreased by -1590.10
(negative) on average when natural disasters occurred intensively (12
consecutive points). In contrast, in situations where natural disasters occur
in low intensity (4 points), there is an increase in income of +64.74
(positive). The data from the questionnaire confirmed that disasters with an
intensity of no more than five points allowed fishermen's income to remain in
normal condition. Thus, this research proved that the intensity and frequency
of natural disasters are factors that directly affect the economic stability of
coastal communities in Atauro Island.
This
research makes an important contribution to the development of disaster
mitigation and adaptation policies, particularly in coastal areas dependent on
the fisheries sector. The findings underscore the need for the Timor Leste
government to develop a more integrated disaster risk management strategy,
including strengthening fisheries infrastructure, providing income insurance
for fishermen, and training programs to improve the adaptive capacity of local
communities. In addition, this research opens up opportunities for further
studies, such as analyzing the long-term socio-economic impacts of disasters on
the fisheries sector or developing technology-based disaster risk prediction
models to improve community preparedness.
