| Sat Sep 25 | Slide Show | Borneo: Island in the Clouds | Diane Marron | Borneo: Island in the Clouds Please join me on this research expedition into Borneo,s rainforest. The key objective of this research is to maintain biodiversity, ecosystem function and conservation value in the face of climate and land use change. Until the mid-20th century Borneo was almost completely covered with pristine rainforests. Over recent decades these rainforests, particularly the lowland forests, have been subjected to industrial-scale logging and/or cleared to make way for plantations. A small group of us volunteers recently spent 7 days in the leech-infested, densely foliaged jungle taking measurements, soil samples, planting trees and conducting other research in controlled plots along with our scientific guides. Included in this presentation is a visit to a palm oil plantation and ascent of Mt. Kinabalu, the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia at 2095.2 meters. |
