Eastern Java–Bali montane rain forests
open-in-new
<p>The Eastern Java–Bali montane rain forests <a href="/facts/Ecoregion/MbBgAph9">ecoregion</a> (WWF ID: IM0112) covers the higher elevation mountain rainforests on the eastern side of the island of <a href="/facts/Java/2MNA2rLm">Java</a>, and most of the center of the island of <a href="/facts/Bali/ThlIdDeC">Bali</a> in <a href="/facts/Indonesia/vQnWU3IW">Indonesia</a>. The region has a number of active volcanoes, but is under pressure from growing human populations pushing into higher elevations and more marginal land. With elevations rising from sea level to 3,426 metres (11,240 ft), and precipitation varying between rainforest and drier forest levels, the area has many different forest types – evergreen, deciduous and semi-alpine. </p>
