Seram Island
Seram (formerly spelled Ceram; also Seran or Serang) is the largest and main island of Maluku province of Indonesia, despite Ambon Island's historical importance. It is located just north of the smaller Ambon Island and a few other adjacent islands, such as Saparua, Haruku, Nusa Laut and the Banda Islands. Geography and geology Seram is traversed by a central mountain range, the highest point of which, Mount Binaiya, is covered with dense rain forests. Its remarkably complex geology is because of its location at the meeting of several tectonic microplates, which have been described as "one of the most tectonically complex areas on Earth". Seram actually falls on its own microplate, which has been twisted around by 80° in the last 8 million years by the relatively faster movement of the Papua microplate. Meanwhile, along with the northward push of the Australian Plate, this has resulted in the uplift that gives north-central Seram peaks of over 3000 m. On the island, there a ...

Waeapo River
The Waeapo River is a river which flows on the island of Buru, Maluku, Indonesia. It is one of the main rivers of the island, draining towards the Banda Sea in the northeast of the island. History Following the communist purges in the 1960s, thousands of political prisoners were incarcerated in Buru, and they were mostly placed around the Waeapo River valley. This was partly due to the valley's topographic features, being surrounded by continuous steep cliffs. As the river was navigable, it was used to transport prisoners inland. The lower Waeapo valley later became a destination for Javanese transmigrants, with over 20,000 settlers moving into settlements on the Waeapo River's floodplain and establishing rice fields. The Waeapo valley remains the concentration of nearly all rice agriculture in Buru. Since 2012, due to gold mining activities in a nearby mountain, mercury has begun leaching into the river, although 2015 measurements indicated acceptable levels. Further illegal go ...
