METHODS: The value of water resources carrying capacity is derived from that of water availability and the domestic water needs per capita per year. This study aims to analyze water resources carrying capacity before and after the major 2010 eruption of Mount Merapi. The eruption of Mount Merapi in 2010 changed the landscape and community livelihoods due to the redistribution of a large volume of volcanic materials. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Water resources carrying capacity is dynamic and can be influenced by catastrophic volcanic eruptions.
