This chapter reports on a range of research conducted in CIFOR's research area in Malinau, East Kalimantan. A major emphasis of this work was to begin to document the biological wealth of this area. The main task had three major aspects: 1) finding out what occurs where, 2) assessing to whom it m...
This account summarises studies based on tree data from plots established during the 1930s and 1940s in Budongo, a Ugandan rain forest. The original interpretations of forest change provoked controversies that continue to the present day. Analyses have yielded three categories of results: the fir...
The Malinau watershed in Northeast Kalimantan is essential for local communities both as a source of food and as a means of transport.

Based on an extensive review of the literature, and broad consultation with experts, we have assessed the sensitivity of Bornean vertebrates to the direct and indirect effects of timber harvest. Well-implemented selective logging has a relatively limited direct impact on wildlife populations: few...
