SUMMARY:The Trees and Forests of Indonesian Borneo
DESCRIPTION:Campbell Webb, Senior Research Scientist, Arnold Arboretum
 Thu June 23, 7:00pm–8:30pmLocation: Weld Hill Research and Administr
 ation BuildingThe giant island of Borneo in Indonesia is probably home
  to more than 5,000 types of trees, but botanists have yet to compile 
 a complete list. Unfortunately, the forests of Borneo are rapidly shri
 nking, and hundreds of species in unexplored regions may disappear bef
 ore they have been collected and recorded. Campbell Webb and his Indon
 esian colleagues have just finished a two-month botanical and ecologic
 al expedition to the heart of the Gunung Palung National Park in West 
 Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo). He will describe some of the remarkabl
 e trees he studied, share his efforts to exchange botanical knowledge 
 with local collaborators, and explain the emerging global ‘semantic 
 web’ of data that science is amassing on tropical forests. He will a
 lso share tales of living in the Bornean rain forest and his plans for
  four future expeditions in this fascinating and vital hotspot of bota
 nical diversity. Free, but registration requested\n\nFor more informat
