One suggested area for local participation is in the measurement, reporting and veriication MRV of carbon and land cover change. Accurate global MRV is crucial to track deforestation and global carbon luxes to be regulated within REDD+, a climate change mechanism that targets the reduction of carbon emissions through deforestation and forest degradation and seeks to enhance forest carbon stocks through the conservation and sustainable management of forests. My research is conducted with the Center for International Forestiy Research, CIFOR, as part of the “Participator’Measurement, Reporting and Veriication: Addressing the Scales” project. I will study the possibilities for participatory MRV in Indonesia through research in West Kalimantan in the district of Kapuas Hulu. Background research will cover what lessons can be learned hom the implementation and information lows of past participator}’projects. My ield research will include household surveys, key informant interviews, focus groups and participator’ mapping in order to understand what social, economic and historic conditions are necessary for participation in MRV. 108.1 Ms. Mary Elizabeth Felker Warga Negara : Amerika Serikat Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : San Francisco’s Department of Environmen No. SIP : 400SIPFRPSMX2013 109.

Merapi Lama Penelitian : 2 dua bulan mulai 19 November 2013 Mitra Kerja : Fakultas Kehutanan UGM Dr. Budiadi Abstrak There are less damaged and severely damaged site within Cangkringan district. In the less damaged site there are two kinds of land use, one is pekarangan and the other is tegaran. Pekarangan is beside a house and dominated by several kinds of orchards, crops and trees such as avocado Persea Americana, nangka Artocarpus heterophyllus, kopi Cofea sp., mahoni Sweitenian macrophylla and so on.Tegaran is located farer from a house and the number of species is less compared with pekarangan. Most of tegaran is dominated by sengon Paraserianthes falcataria which are planted in a row, as the seedlings were provided by government.In a place on which severely damaged by phyroclasitic low there are few of pteridophyte, grasses and tree species elephant grass and sengon are regenerating on hollows in which water is stranded. Around the severely damaged site, there are pure stands of Acacia mangium is spreading. At the moment we have observed Cangkringan district. Within and around the district there are several types of sites which are diferedin damage. It takes 177 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 longer time to site which were afected phyroclastic low to recover its former vegetation. On the other hand, there has been diference in vegetation of less damaged sites. The diference seemed to be caused by several factors such as distance from home and severely damaged area, which relects possibility of future strike of phyroclastic low. In the future studies we are going to do hearing survey focus on rehabilitative activity of local community and do more detailed survey on vegetation focus on role of fast growing alien species. 110.1 Dr. Tetsuya Shimamura Warga Negara : Jepang Jabatan : Associate Professor Institusi : Ehime University No. SIP : 436SIPFRPSMXI2013 111.

The biological factors for weedy and even invasive behaviour in human-inluenced landscapes are still poorly understood. We want to test the hypothesis that asexual reproduction via seed apomixis is one of the key factors for introduced weeds to reach rapidly dominance in the understory vegetation of plantations, and to invade natural rainforest systems. Uniparental reproduction after long distance dispersal may explain the superior colonization ability of apomictic plants Baker’s law. We will focus on two model systems of widespread invasive species with facultative apomixis Melastomataceae: Clidemia hirta, and Poaceae: Panicoideae. To test the hypothesis that apomictic weeds have a major impact on tropical rainforest transformation systems, we will quantify apomictic vs. sexual seed formation by using pollen-exclusion experiments, population genetic studies and molecular progeny arrays with microsatellite markers, microscopic histological investigation plus low cytometric seed screening. Sampling will follow the general project scheme in two landscapes, with each four plots in palm oil, rubber plantations and in jungle rubber; for natural rainforests we will analyse marginal populations. 112.1 Ms. Nicole Opfermann Warga Negara : Jerman Jabatan : Ph.D. Student 179 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 Institusi : Georg-August-University Göettingen No. SIP : 129SIPFRPSMIV2013 113.Research to Support Conservation in the Tropical Forest of Kalimantan Tujuan Penelitian : Bertujuan menyediakan data untuk mendukung upaya konservasi di wilayah hutan bernilai konservasi tinggi High Conservation Value di Kalimantan, Indonesia Bidang Penelitian : Ekologi Daerah Penelitian : Kalteng Lab.

Suwido Limin, MS Abstract The OuTrop-CIMTROP collaborative long-term multi-disciplinary research project aims to provide data to support and enhance locally-led conservation eforts in High Conservation Value Forests in Kalimantan, Indonesia. This will be achieved through studies designed to i improve our knowledge of the natural ecology of these forests and resident species’ behaviour; and ii elucidate the impacts of human activities on this, including both anthropogenic threats to the ecosystem and forest management activities. These studies will build upon data collected in Kalimantan by OuTrop and CIMTROP team members over the last ten years, enabling us to maintain and extend our existing data sets, and collect new data sets, to continue our analyses of ecosystem change in these important forests and provide information to support conservation policy decisions. To achieve this, our three-year research programme will incorporate studies on loral and faunal biodiversity and ecological interactions, including trees, birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, ish and invertebrates; forest structure and dynamics; lagship conservation species, including orang-utans, gibbons, red langurs and use of camera traps to survey cats; communities; ecosystem services; threats to the forest and conservation measures to counter these threats; and 180 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 trials of the efectiveness of forest regeneration and reforestation techniques. As part of this programme, my research has been focussed on Theme 4.2 of the OuTrop-CIMTROP RISTEK proposal: Forest Regeneration and Restoration. The overall objective for our research in this area is to identify species that would be suitable for large-scale reforestation projects. These species should be able to grow quickly to form a closed canopy, thus creating shade to make the habitat more hospitable to other tree species, and attracting seed-dispersing fauna to the area. This will help to speed up the rate of natural unassisted regeneration and, in the long-term, help to re-establish a forest that resembles its original state. We aim to identify species that are naturally suited to grow under harsh conditions: direct sun light “sun-lovers” or light-tolerants, high water levels, been underwater for a long period of the time each year lood-tolerant, and the combination of both, living and growing in a looded forest edge for more than 6 months per year with direct sun light that increases the water temperature. Main objectives are: • To identify peat-swamp tree species that can successfully survive and grow in the deforested area. We aim to identifying tree and shrub species that are native, light-tolerant and lood-tolerant. • To document the efectiveness of any supplementary planting conditions, e.g. fertilisation, minimum planting height, supporting stakes. 113.1 Ms. Cathryn Anne Freund Warga Negara : Amerika Serikat Jabatan : Master Student Institusi : Columbia University No. SIP : 01EXTSIPFRPSMI2013 113.2 Mr. Pau Brugues Sintes Warga Negara : Spanyol Jabatan : Project Manager Institusi : University of Barcelona No. SIP : 072SIPFRPSMIII2013 181 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 113.3 Ms. Claire Juliet Neale Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 182SIPFRPSMVI2013 113.4 Ms. Samantha Kate Tesoriero Warga Negara : Australia Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 183SIPFRPSMVI2013 113.5 Ms. Marina Mulligan Warga Negara : Irlandia Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 184SIPFRPSMVI2013 113.6 Ms. Emma Claire Jackson Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 224SIPFRPSMVI2013 113.7 Ms. Helene Birot Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Research Intern 182 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 225SIPFRPSMVI2013; 86EXTSIPFRPSMXI2013 113.8 Dr. Mark Edward Harrison Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Managing Director Institusi : OuTrop Orangutan Tropical Peatland Project No. SIP : 47EXTSIPFRPSMVI2013 113.9 Ms. Amanda Rae Hoepfner Warga Negara : Amerika Serikat Jabatan : Ph.D. Student Institusi : University of Utah No. SIP : 52EXTSIPFRPSMVI2013 113.10 Mr. Lucas Alexander Ward Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Independen Researcher No. SIP : 53EXTSIPFRPSMVI2013 113.11 Ms. Amy Sylvia Oxley Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Independen Researcher No. SIP : 54EXTSIPFRPSMVI2013 183 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 113.12 Mr. Robert Levent Durgut Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Student Institusi : OuTrop Orangutan Tropical Peatland Project No. SIP : 249SIPFRPSMVII2013 113.13 Ms. Elizabeth Jane Barrow Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Student Institusi : OuTrop Orangutan Tropical Peatland Project No. SIP : 255SIPFRPSMVII2013 113.14 Mr. Matthew Adam Williams Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Researcher Institusi : OuTrop Orangutan Tropical Peatland Project No. SIP : 256SIPFRPSMVII2013 113.15 Ms. Constance Jane Tremlett Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Master Student Institusi : University of Leeds No. SIP : 381SIPFRPSMIX2013 113.16 Ms. Melanie Do Australia Jabatan : Individual Researcher Institusi : OuTROP No. SIP : 430SIPFRPSMXI2013 184 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 113.17 Ms. Claire Juliet Neale Warga Negara : Inggris Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 84EXTSIPFRPSMXI2013 113.18 Ms. Samantha Kate Tesoriero Warga Negara : Australia Jabatan : Research Intern Institusi : OuTrop No. SIP : 85EXTSIPFRPSMXI2013 114. Resilience against frequent eruptions of Mt. Merapi and vegetation restoration by local Javanese people Tujuan Penelitian : Meneliti teknik dan pengetahuan masyarakat lokal dalam melakukan restorasi vegetasi dengan pembuatan ekosistem buatan di lereng Gn. Merapi Bidang Penelitian : Ekologi Daerah Penelitian : DI Yogyakarta Sleman, Magelang Lama Penelitian : 12 dua belas bulan mulai 8 Maret 2013 Mitra Kerja : DI Yogyakarta Sleman, Magelang Abstrak Mt. Merapi is a volcano that located approximately 30 km north from Jogjakarta, a capital city of Jogjakarta Special Region, where 2.4 million people are living in. Javanese people have settled on the slope and they have utilized natural resources taken from not only natural ecosystems, but also artiicial ecosystems such as dryland and homegardens. Mt. Merapi is also well known as one of the most active volcano in the world and its eruption in 2010 heavily damaged surrounding forest 185 Sekretariat Perizinan Penelitian Asing Kementerian Riset dan Teknologi DIREKTORI PENELITIAN ASING DI INDONESIA 2013 and villages include dryland and homegardens. This catastrophic eruption forced villagers to move temporally to some refuges. Nevertheless, most of evacuated villagers have strong willing to come back and cultivate crops and plant trees in the destructed land although eruptions of Merapi would repeat again. On the other hand, vegetation restoration after the eruption is required to take both ecological and economic beneits. Local Javanese people on the slope of Mt. Merapi have restored their destructed land in their own ways against frequent eruptions. Thus, it would be very useful for us to learn how the local people have established their dryland and homegardens after the eruptions to fulill their needs. This study aims to investigate the knowledge and the techniques of local Javanese people for vegetation restoration by establishing artiicial ecosystems such as dryland and homegardens on the slope of Mt. Merapi. Vegetation survey for landscape will be conducted to reveal the current situation after the eruption in 2010 in where local people are doing some activities for their livelihood. Interview survey with local people will also be carried out to investigate their knowledge and techniques in term of re-establishment of dryland and homegarden. 114.1 Mr. Akito Yanai Warga Negara : Jepang Jabatan : Master Student Institusi : Graduate School of Agricultural Sciences, Ehime University No. SIP : 073SIPFRPSMIII2013
