West Papua

The West Papua settlement was enshrined in the Papua of Indonesia Act of Autonomy of 2001, the preamble to which confirms that the integration of the nation must be maintained within the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia by respecting the equal and uniformed social and cultural life of the people of Papua through the formulation of a Special Autonomous region . Article 1 of the agreement then confirms that the Irian Jaya (West Papua) Province is granted special autonomy in the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia . The Article continnes ...

Nutmeg and mace oils from Indonesia, the West Indies and Papua New Guinea showed clear-cut differences in the composition. The oils differed in the composition of the aromatic ether fraction. The most abundant aromatic ether was myristicin in East Indian oils, elemicin in the West Indian oils and safrole in the Papuan oils (Ehlers et al., 1998). Chang Yen et al. (1996) reported that Grenadian nutmeg oils contained more sab-inene and less myristicin and safrole than oils from other geographic regions.

In Table 9 we couple our estimates of the SO2 flux at various arcs (Table 7) with our compilation of the gas chemistry (Table 8) to produce an estimate of the fluxes of a number of volatile species (CO2, N2, N2,ex, me, He and Ar) for 11 arcs worldwide. The largest emitter of volatiles (in an absolute sense) is the arc systems of Papua New Guinea and the South-west Pacific although it must be cautioned that these fluxes are derived using data from the Indonesia arcs—no gas chemistry is yet available for these regions. The northern Pacific arcs (Alaska-Aleutians and Kamchatka-Kuriles) are relatively poor emitters of volatiles, and this presumably reflects the virtual absence of carbonate sediment in this region (see Table 10).
