Abstract
Bamboo can be engineeredfor laminate boards and other sustainableconstruction material. The adhesive type is expected to affect the laminated board’s quality. This study analyzedthe physical (density, moisture content, and delamination) and mechanical (bending and shear strength) properties of betung(Dendrocalamus asper) bamboo laminated boards prepared using various adhesives. The most favorableadhesive for enhancing betungbamboo laminated boardswas read more

Abstract
Kawui tree or Vernonia arborea is a lesser-known woody species, originated from Kalimantan Island, Indonesia. It is one of the potential materials for pulp and paper, which produces high bark residue. Furthermore, its rich background as folklore medicines suggested the medicinal properties of V. arborea. This study aims to explore the chemical extractives of V. arborea bark and their bioactivities. The bark samples were successfully extracted using n-hexane, read more

Abstract
Strychnos lucida R.Br. is a medicinal plant believed to treat various diseases. The study aimed to identify the phytochemical compounds, total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant, and antibacterial activity of the root, seed, stem, and leaf of S. lucida. Antioxidant activity was examined using the DPPH method in the methanol extract. The extract of four parts of S. lucida was tested against three bacteria (Bacillus subtilis Inacc-B334, Staphylococcus aureus read more

Abstract
Chemical and kraft pulp properties of culm were investigated in three bamboo species (Bambusa vulgaris, Bambusa maculata and Gigantochloa atter) naturally grown in four different provenances of Lombok Island, Indonesia. The among-provenance variations of these characteristics were also evaluated. The amounts of chemical components (extractives, ash, Klason lignin, holocellulose, and α-, β- and γ-cellulose) in these three species were in the range of those read more

Abstract
Orangutan population sizes have been declining rapidly during the past decades. Proxies for the status of populations range from simple presence/absence data to estimations of absolute density. A variety of monitoring methods are available, including human observations, camera trapping, acoustic monitoring and aerial surveys. This qualitative review provides a comprehensive overview of population monitoring methods and associated metrics, discussing their strengths, read more

Abstract
Teak (Tectona grandis) is a valuable tropical tree species that is widely planted in more than 65 countries, including extensive plantations on Java Island, Indonesia. Java plays a critical role in global teak production. However, few studies have assessed the genetic diversity and local adaptation of this species using genome-wide sequencing data across its natural distribution and Indonesian landraces. Analysis of genetic structure and local adaptation can read more

Abstract
Mangrove ecosystems are vital for human livelihoods, but ongoing exploitation and natural disturbances have led to significant land use and cover changes. Therefore, this study aimed to identify trends regarding land cover (LC) changes in mangrove ecosystems using remote sensing. LC changes from 1988 to 2024, as observedusing remote sensing techniques. Satellite imagery from Landsat 5 TM, Landsat 7 ETM+, Landsat 8 OLI/TRIS, and Landsat read more

Abstract
Peatland ecosystems play a critical role in conservation of biodiversity and climate regulation, but face ongoing degradation from land-use change, mining, and infrastructure development. In response, peatland restoration has gained global attention. This bibliometric study analyzed 448 publications from the Web of Science (1996–2024) to identify global research trends, influential contributors, collaborative networks, technological developments, and implementation read more

Abstract
Walikukun (Schoutenia ovata Korth.) is a commercially significant wood species in Indonesia. Heartwood, in particular, is important due to the natural durability and aesthetics, while lipophilic extractives play a crucial role in the formation. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the levels of lipophilic compounds in different radial positions associated with the formation of Walikukun heartwood. The results showed that the mean of n-hexane, methanol, read more
