It has a total area of 2,450 hectares, with a core area of 600 ha surrounded by a buffer zone. Palm oil plantations surround the reserve on three sides while the other side adjoins a selectively logged dipterocarp forest. An average of 2 metres of rain fall each year, ranging from 1,728 to 3,112 mm.^[1] In 1987, a 50 hectare forest dynamics plot was established in the reserve,^[2] which began as a collaboration between the Forest Research Institute Malaysia, the Forest Global Earth Observatory (ForestGEO; previously Center for Tropical Forest Science),^[3] and the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.^[4] Three censuses of the tree population in the plot have been carried out, the first in 1989, and have counted about 340,000 trees belonging to 800 species in that plot.^[4] The reserve has largely been destroyed by loggers and miners.^{[citation needed]}
