More Than 1500 species of birds are recorded in Indonesia

Indonesia consists of thousands of islands and more than 1500 species of birds are recorded in the country. Many of these islands are of great biological value. There are hundreds of nature reserves. I will describe a few of these, starting with some on Java, Bali and Lombok. In 1994 my wife and I spent five weeks on these islands. The pressure on bird habitats here is very high and many species are rather scarce as a result of massive capture for the pet trade. But still many places are worth a birding visit.

Bermuda Triangle in Indonesia

 

Bermuda Triangle in Indonesia

 Surely we all know what the bermuda triangle. Triangles are often casualties and cause an accident. Bermuda triangle located in the Americas, specifically in the Bahamas archipelago. However, who would have thought that Indonesia was also having bermuda triangle similar to the triangle. Here's his review ...
Bermuda Triangle (Bermuda Triangle)
Before discussing that in Indonesia it is better if we know beforehand that in America. Bermuda Triangle (Bermuda Triangle) is an area of ​​ocean in the Atlantic area of ​​1.5 million km2 mil2 or 4 million line of triangle forming between P. Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Miami.
This triangle is so special because it often occurs both air and sea accidents in the area. Surprisingly, the kecelakaan2 just happen, they are gone in an instant seakan2 the area. Teori2 that explains many of these events, such as methane gas theory, the unstable weather, black hole / blue hole, hole dimensions, even the theory of UFO / alien, but none have been able to explain the teori2 bermuda for certain events.
Even more surprising turns over the world there are about 5-6 (I forget exactly) similar waters with bermuda triangle. One of them turns out there are in Indonesia.
Masalembo triangle is a triangle similar to the Bermuda triangle in the Bahamas. Masalembo Triangle is located in the Java Sea waters, precisely meeting between the Java Sea to the Makassar Strait. If seen from the picture above, it is more likely Masalembo islands Makassar Strait into the Java Sea compared.
Some strange events and accidents have occurred in the area of ​​the triangle. Still remember the sinking Senopati?? KM lotus?? or even more devastating events of loss of Adam Air?? peristiwa2 occurred in the area of ​​the triangle of death. Not just this baru2, first on January 27, 1981 KM Tampomas II burned and sank in the sea, the scene in this deadly triangle.
"Lotus KM wreck about three miles from the shoreline Majene and six miles from the crash site of Adam Air," Ignatius said in its report to the Minister of Transportation Jusman Syafii Jamal at Sultan Hasanuddin Airport, Makassar, Monday (12/1)
The number of accidents and other strange peristiwa2 in the area make the triangle area into restricted areas in Indonesian waters. Actually what is the cause of this phenomenon Masalembo triangle?
If we see from its geographical position, the triangular area Masalembo current flow of water that are not normal. Collisions between the current Java Sea (from west to east), ocean currents Flores (from east to west), coupled with a split flow of Makassar Strait (from north to south) make Masalembo waters flow into unstable areas.
Collision between three water hardness, coupled with the transport of cold sea water from the Pacific Ocean to Indonesia (15 million meterkubik water per second) and is almost entirely through the Makassar Strait, disebut2 as the most scientific explanation that cause these triangles into restricted areas.
It in terms of marine (ocean currents), how to explain kecelakaan2 air? what just happened to occur in the region Masalembo? or whether the region has mysterious powers such as bermuda triangle?
