  • Carl Anton Ludwig Maria Schwaner (16 February 1817 in Mannheim – 30 March 1851 in Batavia) was a German geologist and naturalist. He studied geology and mineralogy in Heidelberg, afterwards being associated with the museum of natural history in Leiden. In 1842, on a recommendation from Coenraad Jacob Temminck, he became a member of the Natuurkundige Commissie voor Nederlandsch Indië (Scientific commission of the Dutch East Indies). He arrived in Batavia of the Dutch East Indies in August 1842, and following certain delays, traveled to Borneo in order to conduct geological investigations. From 1843 to 1848, he performed geological, topographical, zoological and ethnographical research on Borneo. From November 1847 to February 1848, he trekked from the southern town of Bandjermasin, through the interior of the island, to Pontianak on its western coast; thus becoming the first European to accomplish such a feat. In 1848 he returned to Batavia in order to evaluate his findings. Here he died three years later from a fever just prior to embarking on another scientific mission to Borneo. He was founder of the Natuurkundige Vereeniging in Nederlandsch-Indië, serving as its president until late 1850. A small portion of his Indonesian collections later became part of the Rijksmuseum in Leiden. The Schwanergebirge (Schwaner Mountain Range) of Borneo is named in his honor. (en)

  • Carl A.L.M. Schwaner (lahir di Mannheim, Jerman, tahun 1817 – meninggal di Batavia, Hindia Belanda (kini Jakarta, Indonesia), 30 Maret 1851 pada usia 34 tahun) adalah seorang naturalis Jerman dengan spesialisasi geologi dan mineralogi. Namanya diabadikan sebagai nama pegunungan di Kalimantan Barat, Pegunungan Schwaner. Setelah menamatkan studi di Jerman, ia bekerja di Museum Kerajaan Leiden, Belanda, di bawah direktur Coenraad Jacob Temminck. Atas saran Temminck ia ditunjuk sebagai anggota dewan sains Hindia Belanda. Setibanya di Batavia, Agustus 1842, ia harus 'menganggur' selama 14 bulan karena ketiadaan anggaran. Baru pada akhir 1843 ia melakukan studi di Kalimantan. Ia mencatat aspek topografi, geologi, zoologi, dan etnografi selama perjalanannya menembus pedalaman Kalimantan. Ia adalah penjelajah Kalimantan pertama, dengan rute dari Banjarmasin (berangkat 2 November 1847) hingga Pontianak (tiba 2 November 1848). Sepulangnya ke Batavia, ia mempersiapkan hasil penelitiannya. Namun sebelum selesai, ia menerima kontrak berikutnya ke Kalimantan Tenggara (sekarang Kalimantan Selatan) pada akhir 1850. Sebelum berangkat ia menikah, tetapi tidak lama kemudian ia wafat akibat demam di saat mempersiapkan keberangkatannya. Istrinya sendiri tewas dalam kecelakaan kapal di dekat Tanjung Harapan dalam perjalanan pulang ke Belanda. Tulisan-tulisannya hanya sebagian yang terselamatkan hingga ke Museum Kerajaan di Leiden. Karyanya ini kemudian diterbitkan oleh Pijnappel, seorang rekannya. Salah satu gunung yang ada di Kalimantan dinamai Pegunungan Schwaner (The Schwanergebirge) untuk menghormatinya. (in)
