Borneo Rainforest, Indonesia. A striking representation of the tenacity and majesty of nature, the Borneo rainforest is a symbol of Earth's primordial beauty and biodiversity. This vast region, which includes a significant chunk of Borneo, the third-largest island in the world, has a geographic profile that is as complex and varied as the species it protects. Despite having a unique identity, Borneo is divided politically and is shared by Brunei, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Each of the three parts of this tripartite split has its own distinct features within the larger Borneo rainforest. Situated strategically in Southeast Asia, the island is bounded to the north and northwest by the South China Sea, to the northeast by the Sulu Sea, to the east by the Celebes Sea, and to the south by the Java Sea. Eons of geological evolution have produced the topographical profile of the Borneo rainforest, which is made up of a mix of wide-spread plains, sloping hills, and massive mountain ranges. The Schwaner Mountains, which divide the Indonesian province of West Kalimantan from the Malaysian state of Sarawak, form its central region. Rising to 4,095 meters, the highest peak in Southeast Asia, Mount Kinabalu dominates the northern landscape. The vast system of rivers crisscrossing the rainforest significantly influences Borneo's topography. Among the rivers that nourish the soil are the Kapuas, Barito, and Rajang. They also act as essential transit routes, connecting isolated regions of the island. These rivers sustain many different species and human settlements along their banks, making them more than just bodies of water.
