Edward H. Huijbens Examiner: dr. ir. Martijn Duineveld Wageningen University and Research Department of Environmental Science Cultural Geography Chair Group Master of Science in Tourism, Society and Environment i ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Tourism has been an inseparable aspect of my life, starting with having a passion for travelling until I decided to take a big step to study about it back when I was in vocational high school. I would say, learning tourism was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life considering opportunities and experiences which I encountered on the process. I could recall that four years ago, I was saying to myself that finishing bachelor would be my last academic-related goal in my life. However, today, I know that I was wrong. With the fact that the world and the industry are progressing and I raise my self-awareness that I know nothing, here I am today taking my words back and as I am heading towards the final chapter from one of the most exciting journeys in my life – pursuing a master degree in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Never say never. In completing this thesis, I received countless assistances and helps from people that I would like to mention. Firstly, I would not be at this point in my life without the blessing and prayers from my parents, grandma, and family.

  • Birds of Tanjung Puting National Park, Kalimantan Tengah a Prelimanary List
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by KUKILA BIRDS OF TANJUNG PUTING NATIONAL PARK, KALIMANTAN TENGAH A PRELIMANARY LIST by Bohap bin Jalan and Birute M.F. Galdikas (Received 3 October 1986) INTRODUCTION Tanjung Puting National Park is located on the south coast of Kalimantan (Borneo) in the province of Kalimantan Tengah, between 2"35'S and 3° 20'S and 111° 50' and 112° 15'E. Tanjung Puling was first established as a game reserve in two parts during 1936 and 1937 by the Dutch colonial government and the Sultan of Kotawaringin. Consisting of 305,000 ha the reserve was established primarily for the protection of orang utans Pongo pygmaeus, proboscis monkeys Nasalls larvatus and rhinoceros Dicerorhinus sumatrensis with the latter, however, becoming extinct in the 1940's due to severe hunting pressure for its horns. Orang utans and proboscis monkeys still remain plentiful. In 1982 the status of Tanjung puting was upgraded to National park. The park occupies most of the swampy, alluvial peninsula between Kumai Bay and the Seruyan River. The park is very flat with the highest point no more than 30 m above mean sea level. The soils are generally very poor, heavily leached, poorly developed and very acidic. The Park is drained by a number of small black water rivers radiating from its northern and eastern parts. Ground water forms an important part of all habitats and large areas of the Park are flooded for much of the year. VEGETATION a) Lowland Dipterocarp Forest While the vegetation of Tanjung puling is quite varied, approximately 40t of the Park is covered by dryland forest which approximates Lowland Dipterocarp Forest, although it differs in composition from the better known Dipterocarp Forests elsewhere in Borneo; it is forest with a "tropical heath" appearance.

  • Challenge Your Adrenaline by Taking One of These Volcano Indonesia Tours
    Challenge Your Adrenaline by Taking One of These Volcano Indonesia Tours As an archipelago, Indonesia lays on the meeting of several tectonic plates. Geologically, it is the reason why Indonesia has many volcanoes stretched from the West to the East. Though it sounds worrying to remember how dangerous a volcano can be, the area can be the perfect place to explore instead. Volcanoes are known for its fertile land and scenic view. Apparently, volcano Indonesia tour can be found across the country and below are six of the best destinations. 1. Mount Rinjani, Lombok Lombok Island on the Eastern Indonesia has the magnificent Mount Rinjani and its craters. This active volcano has three craters from its past eruption called the Kelimutu Lake. Mount Rinjani is the second highest volcano in Indonesia after Mount Kerinci in Sumatera. The lake has a magical view because each crater has different colors throughout the day. From afar, each of the craters would be seen to have green, blue, and red color. The local people have their own legend of the color of the craters. However, the color change might potentially be the result of the change in oxidation and reduction of the fluid in the craters. It may take around two days and one night to climb the mountain seriously and professionally. However, there are Indonesia tour packages that will offer an easier hiking option for beginners. 2. Mount Batur, Bali Mount Batur in Bali might be the easiest volcano to climb in the Indonesia tour list. In just less than three hours, you can get to the top of this active volcano.
