Abstract


UNESA Ketintang Street Campus, Surabaya, is the biggest campus in South Surabaya. Academic activity on the UNESA Ketintang Street Campus to some extent contributed to the increase of CO2 concentration in the Surabaya City. The increase of CO2 concentration can be balanced by Green Open Space. This study goal is to determine the adequacy of Green Open Space in Unesa Ketintang Street Campus in reducing CO2.

The study used quantitative research method. The study location was UNESA Ketintang Street Campus, Surabaya. Data acquisition is by observation technique. Observation was carried out for 6 days in July 2021. Analysis Unit uses Box Model. Adequity of existing Green Open Space was analysed by consideration of CO2 reduction, the reduction indicator of CO2 concentration (Net_CO2-Con) in cumulative concentration of CO2 on ambient air.

The result of study shows that from 7 point of observation, the average CO2 concentration on ambient air is around 346 – 570 ppmV. The value of reduction of CO2 concentration (Net_CO2-Con) is around -19,46 to -87,69 ppmV. The minus sign (-) on the reduction value shows that Green Open Space in UNESA Ketintang Street Campus, Surabaya, was adequated to reduce CO2 concentration on ambient air.
