Esquivias Assistant National Statistician National Censuses Service ISSN 0117-1453 FOREWORD The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015 primarily to update the country’s population and its demographic characteristics, such as the size, composition, and geographic distribution. Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides. -

In this paper we review the results of a regional study that examined the state of demersal fisheries resources in the coastal areas of Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand. In each country time series of scientific trawl survey data (spanning 12–49 years, depending on the area) were used to assess changes in the total biomass of demersal species over time. All countries showed substantial declines in the total biomass. In Malaysia, the declines were greatest in the shallow depths (<50 m) where the biomass declined to 4–20% of the original estimates. In the Gulf of Thailand, by 1995 the total biomass estimates had declined to less than 8% of the 1965 estimates. In the Philippines, changes in the biomass were examined in different bays and fishing areas and the recent estimates of the biomass were 12–64% of the original estimates. -
Part Ii Metro Manila and Its 200Km Radius Sphere
PART II METRO MANILA AND ITS 200KM RADIUS SPHERE CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA 7.1 PHYSICAL PROFILE The area defined by a sphere of 200 km radius from Metro Manila is bordered on the northern part by portions of Region I and II, and for its greater part, by Region III. Region III, also known as the reconfigured Central Luzon Region due to the inclusion of the province of Aurora, has the largest contiguous lowland area in the country. Its total land area of 1.8 million hectares is 6.1 percent of the total land area in the country. Of all the regions in the country, it is closest to Metro Manila. The southern part of the sphere is bound by the provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon, all of which comprise Region IV-A, also known as CALABARZON. 7.1.1 Geomorphological Units The prevailing landforms in Central Luzon can be described as a large basin surrounded by mountain ranges on three sides. On its northern boundary, the Caraballo and Sierra Madre mountain ranges separate it from the provinces of Pangasinan and Nueva Vizcaya. In the eastern section, the Sierra Madre mountain range traverses the length of Aurora, Nueva Ecija and Bulacan. The Zambales mountains separates the central plains from the urban areas of Zambales at the western side. The region’s major drainage networks discharge to Lingayen Gulf in the northwest, Manila Bay in the south, the Pacific Ocean in the east, and the China Sea in the west. -

Chapter 4 Fisheries: the Single Largest Source of Protein in the Philippines
Chapter 4 Fisheries: The single largest source of protein in the Philippines [In the past] Teach a man to fish and he will have food for the rest of his life. [Now] Teach a man to fish and he will resort to unsustainable methods to remain competitive with the overabundance of fishermen. Anonymous IMPORTANCE AND TRENDS OF FISHERIES The Philippine population is highly dependent on fish food. Recorded per capita consumption of the fish, meat and poultry food group is 54 kg/year in 1993 of which 67% is comprised of fish and fish products21. The food group that includes fish is thus the second most important component of the Filipino diet next to rice. On a national scale, fisheries contributed 3.5% to the gross domestic product (GDP) and 16% of gross value added (GVA) in the agricultural, fishery and forestry sectors in 1996, both at current prices. In the same year, exports of fishery products amounted to P15 billion (US$600 million) with the top commodity exports being tuna, shrimp and seaweed, in descending order of importance22. The fishing industry also provides employment to about one million people, roughly 5% of the countrys labor force. Of this, 68% is accounted for by the municipal fishing sector, 28% is accounted for by aquaculture, and the rest by the commercial boats22. Because commercial boats account for 30% of the catch and employ only 6% of the fishing labor force, there are strong sentiments being aired about limiting commercial fishing boats to areas outside of municipal waters. Fisheries production in 1996 totaled 2.8 million t (Table 4.1). -

Francisco1, Nancy A. Dayap1, Lea A. Tumabiene1,*, Ruben A. Francisco, Sr., Mizpah Jay Candole1, Jaye Hanne De Veyra1, Elmer Bautista1 1Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Regional Office No. 08 Maharlika Highway, Brgy. Diit, Tacloban City ABSTRACT Leyte Gulf is among the major fishing grounds in the Philippines with a shelf area of 13, 147 km2 covering the islands of Samar and Leyte. For this reason, it was chosen as the study area in Eastern Visayas under the National Stock Assessment Program (NSAP) which aims to assess the status of fisheries resources. This paper presents the fishery stock assessment results from CY 2001-2011. The annual fish catch from 2001-2011 showed a declining trend. The lowest was in 2008 with 12, 483.52 MT while the highest was in 2003 with 26,367.32 MT. The municipal fisheries had a high catch contribution except in 2001 where commercial catch was higher by 30%. Thirty eight (38) types of fishing gears were identified operating in Leyte Gulf. -
Sea Urchin Management in Bolinao, Pangasinan, Philippines: Attempts on Sustainable Use of a Communal Resource
Sea urchin management in Bolinao, Pangasinan, Philippines: Attempts on sustainable use of a communal resource Liana T. McManus, Edgardo D. Gomez, John W. McManus, and Antoinette Juinio Marine Science Institute University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City 1101 Philippines ABSTRACT The sea urchin, Tripneustes gratilla. is exploited in the reef flats of Bolinao for its roe. A high international demand for brined sea urchin gonads since the early 1980's has led to an overfished resource base. An exploitation level index of 0.6 to 0.7, and slow decline in harvest rates from 1987 to 1989 indicate the extent of overfishing. as of 1988. The adoption of an annual closed collecting season from December to January helped mitigate the status in 1989. Succeeding closed seasons however suffered from lack of effective enforcement. Changing patterns in the manpower structure of the industry from self-employment among fishermen, to one of direct dependence of fishermen on foreign buyers with increasing capital inputs, seem to have exacerbated over-harvest of sea urchins. Although the potential to draw a comprehensive management plan exists within the powers of the municipality of Bolinao, an effective village mobilization program directed at grassroots participation in resource stewardship is the recommended course of action. Introduction The sea urchin industry of Bolinao, Pangasinan, northern Philippines (fig. 1), is a case study of a communal resource which can sustain harvest provided that a comprehensive management intervention is drawn up. Because of an ineffective management measure adopted by the municipal council and because of shifts in the manpower structure of the industry, indices obtained from previous studies and a 4- year monitoring of catch effort statistics from a landing site indicate that sea urchins are an overfished resource, and that total daily harvest is on the down trend.
