The Mount of Salak is one of the habitat for various species of primates. Mount of Salak is also the area which has the potential of geothermal which can be used for power plant. Since 25 years ago the geothermal power plant has been operating in this area. The information of primates diversity was needed for wildlife habitat management especially in geothermal power plant area, because the primates can be used as an indicator of forest health. This study was conducted to determine the diversity and distribution of primates in geothermal power plant area. We collected the data from April to May 2018 using line transect method. Based on the research indicated four species of primates such as Hylobates moloch, Trachypithecus auratus, Presbytis comata, and Macaca fascicularis with their relative abundance values of 46%, 33%, 15%, and 6%, respectively. Species diversity index value was 1.174 (medium) and evenness index value was 0.846 (fairly even).

  • Plataran Borobudur Encounter
    PLATARAN BOROBUDUR ENCOUNTER ABOUT THE DESTINATION Plataran Borobudur Resort & Spa is located within the vicinity of ‘Kedu Plain’, also known as Progo River Valley or ‘The Garden of Java’. This fertile volcanic plain that lies between Mount Sumbing and Mount Sundoro to the west, and Mount Merbabu and Mount Merapi to the east has played a significant role in Central Javanese history due to the great number of religious and cultural archaeological sites, including the Borobudur. With an abundance of natural beauty, ranging from volcanoes to rivers, and cultural sites, Plataran Borobudur stands as a perfect base camp for nature, adventure, cultural, and spiritual journey. BOROBUDUR Steps away from the resort, one can witness one the of the world’s largest Buddhist temples - Borobudur. Based on the archeological evidence, Borobudur was constructed in the 9th century and abandoned following the 14th-century decline of Hindu kingdoms in Java and the Javanese conversion to Islam. Worldwide knowledge of its existence was sparked in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, then the British ruler of Java, who was advised of its location by native Indonesians. Borobudur has since been preserved through several restorations. The largest restoration project was undertaken between 1975 and 1982 by the Indonesian government and UNESCO, following which the monument was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Borobudur is one of Indonesia’s most iconic tourism destinations, reflecting the country’s rich cultural heritage and majestic history. BOROBUDUR FOLLOWS A remarkable experience that you can only encounter at Plataran Borobudur. Walk along the long corridor of our Patio Restaurants, from Patio Main Joglo to Patio Colonial Restaurant, to experience BOROBUDUR FOLLOWS - where the majestic Borobudur temple follows you at your center wherever you stand along this corridor.

The study was conducted using quantitative approach. The results exhibit travelers' characteristics are dominated by males within 15-30 age range. The average income is generally less than IDR 2,000,000 with monthly travel budget up to IDR 500,000 due to visiting motivation, that is, quiet and natural environment. Most tourists were originally from Central Java region, so transportation used in general is a private motorcycle and travel cars. Tourists’ visitation is for recreation purposes with friends which generally last for two days with about 2 to 5 times annualy. Lastly, travel activity most favored by tourists is camping. KEY WORDS Visitation decision, tourist, national park, mount Merbabu, ecotourism. Forest in national park area possesses natural resources capable to provide various benefits for human life in the surrounding and areas beyond. These populations are affected directly and indirectly. National park tourism is one of such benefits. Along with the increase in population and economic needs, it increases the need for forest resources. There is another supporting aspect in the form of customs, culture, cool weather, and the beauty of natural panorama. The increasing population rises density, routine work and activities which create a sense of saturation.

  • Deforestation of Primate Habitat on Sumatra and Adjacent Islands, Indonesia

Here we present recent data on deforestation rates and primate distribution patterns to argue, yet again, for action to avert potential extinctions of Sumatran primates in the near future. Maps of forest loss were constructed using GIS and satellite imagery. Maps of primate distributions were estimated from published studies, museum records and expert opinion, and the two were overlaid on one another. The extent of deforestation in the provinces of Sumatra between 2000 and 2012 varied from 3.74% (11,599.9 ha in Lampung) to 49.85% (1,844,804.3 ha in Riau), with the highest rates occurring in the provinces of Riau, Jambi, Bangka Belitung and South Sumatra. During that time six species lost 50% or more of their forest habitat: the Banded langur Presbytis femoralis lost 82%, the Black-and-white langur Presbytis bicolor lost 78%, the Black-crested Sumatran langur Presbytis melalophos and the Bangka slow loris Nycticebus bancanus both lost 62%, the Lar gibbon Hylobates lar lost 54%, and the Pale-thighed langur Presbytis siamensis lost 50%.

Mount Merapi and Mount Merbabu are active volcanoes that lies in Java Island. Java island is part of Indonesia region.

SIAM SOC. 61(1): 7–14, 2015 PERSISTENCE OF PRIMATE AND UNGULATE COMMUNITIES ON FORESTED ISLANDS IN LAKE KENYIR IN NORTHERN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA Ding Li Yong 1,2 ABSTRACT As more rivers in Southeast Asia’s forested landscapes are dammed, artificial land-bridge islands are becoming more ubiquitous. While the mammal faunas on these islands are poorly studied, they provide unique opportunities to investigate the impacts of fragmentation and isolation on insular biota. During the course of a 60-day survey of small (<20 ha), medium (20–50 ha) and large (>50 ha) forested islands in Lake Kenyir, Peninsular Malaysia, four primates and three ungulate species were detected on these islands, while the entire complement of six primates were found at nearby mainland sites. Five ungulates were detected on mainland sites. Notably, white-thighed surili (Presbytis siamensis) and white-handed gibbon (Hylobates lar) were found to have persisted on islands as small as 1.1 ha two decades post-isolation, although no ungulates were observed on the three smallest (<10 ha) islands. Observed diversity patterns of primate and ungulate assemblages on forest islands may be the result of patchy, resource-influenced distributions pre-flooding, and differential abilities to disperse across the water matrix post-flooding. Further studies should resample species occurrence, on top of collecting data on abundance, demographics and genetic variability in these isolated mammalian communities. Keywords: dams, isolation, Lake Kenyir, mammals, Peninsular Malaysia, Southeast Asia INTRODUCTION Mammalian communities on tropical land-bridge islands worldwide have been little studied but are increasingly relevant in the light of understanding persistence patterns in small habitat patches as tropical forests become rapidly lost and fragmented globally (RIITTERS ET AL., 2000; GIBSON ET AL., 2013).

To minimize the impact of volcanic eruptions need to monitor the volcanic activity, one effort in monitoring is to monitor the surface changes (deformation) around the volcano. These surface changes can be monitored with InSAR technique. In this study monitoring by analyzing the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and displacement map from result processing using InSAR technique. The accuracy of DEM compare with Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) DEM. These results showed that after the eruption in 2006 led to the deflation that occurred in 2007. In 2010 after the eruption led to deflation in some areas of Merapi volcano. Whereas in 2008 due to the absence of volcanic activity that occurred then the deformation is not so large changing. Test on the DEM from the process of InSAR compare with SRTM DEM produced an accuracy of 96%. Keywords: deformation; InSAR; DEM 1.

It was because there was only one attraction in the temple. After visiting Borobudur, most of tourists move to another place such as Yogyakarta. They know about the temple, but not its past environment when the temple was built. The history and past environment of Borobudur temple could be developed as additional tourist attractions to make them stay longer in that area. Geological condition and the evidences of an ancient lake could be developed as tourist objects. It is very interesting and could be developed to educate visitors in geo-archeology. The aim of this research is to develop archeological (temple) tourism based on geology and past environment. Although many researches on geo-archeology have been done, the results which relate to tourism are still not widely applied yet.
