Webinar:
The World of Indonesian Paleobotany
Webinar Description
Paleobotany is a branch of science regarding fossil wood (petrified wood) that is still not very well known in Indonesia, even though fossil wood resources are found in many areas. To support the preservation and dissemination of information about native Indonesian wood fossils, a webinar, "The World of Indonesian Paleobotany," was attended by various Indonesian paleobotany experts and practitioners and supported by the National Geographic Society.
