CEB
Herbarium Celebense
Objective:
Herbarium Celebense (CEB) is one herbariums in Sulawesi which active in collecting and storing plant specimens in Indonesia with total 3791 specimen. The earthquake that occurred on 28 September 2018 caused great damage to several specimens and about 5000 specimens are waiting to be worked on. Based on this, the proposed budget will be invested in improving the CEB database and procces digitizing all available specimens into website herbarium.
Timetable:
This activity will start in 2023 and will continue in the following years because the facilities proposed in this proposal are facilities that can be used in the long term.
Scoring Rubric
Reviewer's name:
Collection Improvement (max. 120 points)
-
Facilitating access to the physical collections by digitization (e.g., data entry, setting up database structure with an outline of the platform to be used, purchasing equipment, and imaging specimens) – up to 30 points.
-
Enhancing physical collections by improving the conservation status of specimens in the herbarium (e.g., better folders, protecting covers, mounting paper, labeling, etc.) – up to 30 points.
-
Curating specimens (e.g., updating families, species identification, identifying types) – up to 20 points.
-
Increasing our understanding of the flora or funga by making new herbarium specimens available, such as processing of backlog or collecting and mounting of new specimens from understudied sites – up to 20 points.
-
Securing collections by distribution of duplicates (or orphan collections) to other regional or international herbaria or shipping endangered collections to another herbarium – up to 20 points.

Methods & Funding (max. 40 points)
-
Match between the proposed budget and methods for the aims described – up to 10 points.

The project will yield durable benefits (specimens, digitized metadata, databases, websites) – up to 15 points.
-
The project involves outreach/mentoring and broad dissemination – up to 15 points.
