Konservasi Biodiversitas, Teori dan Praktik di Indonesia


Book Description

Konservasi Biodiversitas di Indonesia Di tengah era globalisasi, aspek ekonomi seringkali menjadi fokus utama yang melenakan, menjadikan biodiversitas rentan terhadap tuntutan negara-negara maju yang telah lebih dulu menerapkan standar lingkungan yang tinggi pada hasil produksi mereka. Keadaan ini sering kali memaksa kita untuk mengadopsi kebijakan yang sesuai dengan tuntutan global, padahal banyak aspek mendasar yang perlu dipertimbangkan. Dalam buku "Konservasi Biodiversitas di Indonesia," Jatna Supriatna, seorang ahli konservasi sumber daya hayati dengan pengalaman puluhan tahun, menegaskan pentingnya pendekatan baru yang lebih integratif dan membumi untuk konservasi biodiversitas. Ia menyampaikan gagasan-gagasan inovatif tentang bagaimana mengelola dan memanfaatkan kekayaan hayati Indonesia—yang merupakan salah satu yang tertinggi di dunia—tanpa merusak lingkungan. Jatna mengusulkan penerapan teknologi terkini, pengadopsian kearifan lokal, serta inisiasi kebijakan pemerintah yang pro-lingkungan dan masyarakat. Dengan mengintegrasikan metode keilmuan konservasi yang berkelanjutan, buku ini menunjukkan bahwa bukan tidak mungkin Indonesia dapat berjalan seiring dengan tuntutan global, sambil tetap berpegang pada prinsip pembangunan yang berwawasan lingkungan. Buku ini menjadi panduan penting bagi semua pihak yang peduli terhadap keberlanjutan biodiversitas Indonesia, sekaligus menawarkan solusi praktis untuk menjaga kekayaan alam tanpa mengorbankan masa depan lingkungan dan masyarakat.

Tropical Peatlands


Book Description

Tropical peatlands are found mostly in South East Asia, but also in Africa and in Central and South America. They and peat-swamp forests store large amounts of carbon and their destruction, particularly through the development of plantations for oil palm and other forms of agriculture, releases large quantities of greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. They are also complex and vulnerable ecosystems, home to great biodiversity and a number of endangered species such as the orang utan.The aim of this book is to introduce this little known but important and vulnerable ecosystem in a way that explains its long standing interaction with the global carbon cycle and how it is being destroyed by deforestation and inappropriate development. The authors describe the origin and formation of peat in the tropics, its current location, extent and amount of carbon stored in it, its biodiversity and natural resource functions and key ecological functions and processes. Appropriate hydrology is the key to the development and maintenance of peatlands and the unique aspects of tropical peatland water supply and management are also explored. In the same vein the nutrient dynamics and budgets of this ecosystem are explained in order to show how complex habitats can be maintained mainly by rainwater containing very low concentrations of essential chemical elements. Past and present impacts on tropical peatlands in SE Asia are discussed and the need for restoration and wise use highlighted. Finally, projections are made about the future of this ecosystem as a result of continuing human impacts and climate change.




Ecology of Indonesian Papua Part Two


Book Description

The Ecology of Papua provides a comprehensive review of current scientific knowledge on all aspects of the natural history of western (Indonesian) New Guinea. Designed for students of conservation, environmental workers, and academic researchers, it is a richly detailed text, dense with biogeographical data, historical reference, and fresh insight on this complicated and marvelous region. We hope it will serve to raise awareness of Papua on a global as well as local scale, and to catalyze effective conservation of its most precious natural assets. New Guinea is the largest and highest tropical island, and one of the last great wilderness areas remaining on Earth. Papua, the western half of New Guinea, is noteworthy for its equatorial glaciers, its vast forested floodplains, its imposing central mountain range, its Raja Ampat Archipelago, and its several hundred traditional forest-dwelling societies. One of the wildest places left in the world, Papua possesses extraordinary biological and cultural diversity. Today, Papua’s environment is under threat from growing outside pressures to exploit its expansive forests and to develop large plantations of oil palm and biofuels. It is important that Papua’s leadership balance economic development with good resource management, to ensure the long-term well-being of its culturally diverse populace.
