Although the name Winter Course might confuse one in the Philippine context, something serious is going on with climate change. The goals of the Winter Course might be described as: Getting to know your counterpart student from a different country and a different discipline; Getting to understand what ‘integrated water management’ and ‘river basin management’ looks like in practice. The Rijnland District Water Control Board feels an obligation in sharing knowledge on the subject of integrated water management. With the millennium goals in mind, we understand that sharing knowledge does not limit itself to the boundaries of your country. Our cooperation with Leiden University led us to the Philippines and in this case specifically to the Isabela State University and the Centre for Cagayan Valley Programme on Environment and Development (CCVPED) and the Mabuwaya Foundation. In this booklet you find the experiences of the group of students participating in the Winter Course 2016. We are proud of the results and the fact that we could contribute to this activity. We can now speak of a tradition, and I am confident that this sixth Winter Course in a row will not be the last one. I sincerely hope that many more Winter Courses may follow! Timo van Tilburg Head of the Policy Department The Rijnland District Water Control Board Leiden, the Netherlands 4 Acknowledgements The present booklet is the outcome of the work done by 10 Dutch, 1 Belgian, 1 Hungarian and 12 Philippine students during the sixth international water course that took place in the Philippines from 5 – 31 January 2016.

  • Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030
    Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan 2005—2030 Regional Development Council 02 Tuguegarao City Message The adoption of the Cagayan Riverine Zone Development Framework Plan (CRZDFP) 2005-2030, is a step closer to our desire to harmonize and sustainably maximize the multiple uses of the Cagayan River as identified in the Regional Physical Framework Plan (RPFP) 2005-2030. A greater challenge is the implementation of the document which requires a deeper commitment in the preservation of the integrity of our environment while allowing the development of the River and its environs. The formulation of the document involved the wide participation of concerned agencies and with extensive consultation the local government units and the civil society, prior to its adoption and approval by the Regional Development Council. The inputs and proposals from the consultations have enriched this document as our convergence framework for the sustainable development of the Cagayan Riverine Zone. The document will provide the policy framework to synchronize efforts in addressing issues and problems to accelerate the sustainable development in the Riverine Zone and realize its full development potential. The Plan should also provide the overall direction for programs and projects in the Development Plans of the Provinces, Cities and Municipalities in the region. Let us therefore, purposively use this Plan to guide the utilization and management of water and land resources along the Cagayan River. I appreciate the importance of crafting a good plan and give higher degree of credence to ensuring its successful implementation. This is the greatest challenge for the Local Government Units and to other stakeholders of the Cagayan River’s development.

South Pacific Commission, Nouméa, New Caledonia The Oceanic Fisheries Programme of the South Pacific Commission is currently pursuing a research project on age and growth of two tropical tuna species, yellowfm tuna (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus). The daily periodicity of microincrements forrned with the sagittal otoliths of these two spceies has been validated by oxytetracycline marking in previous studies. These validation studies have come from fishes within three regions of the Pacific (eastem, central and western tropical Pacific). Otolith microincrements are counted along transverse section with a light microscope.

  • 18 Special Habitats and Special Adaptations 395
    THE DIVERSITY OF FISHES Dedications: To our parents, for their encouragement of our nascent interest in things biological; To our wives – Judy, Sara, Janice, and RuthEllen – for their patience and understanding during the production of this volume; And to students and lovers of fishes for their efforts toward preserving biodiversity for future generations. Front cover photo: A Leafy Sea Dragon, Phycodurus eques, South Australia. Well camouflaged in their natural, heavily vegetated habitat, Leafy Sea Dragons are closely related to seahorses (Gasterosteiformes: Syngnathidae). “Leafies” are protected by Australian and international law because of their limited distribution, rarity, and popularity in the aquarium trade. Legal collection is highly regulated, limited to one “pregnant” male per year. See Chapters 15, 21, and 26. Photo by D. Hall, www.seaphotos.com. Back cover photos (from top to bottom): A school of Blackfin Barracuda, Sphyraena qenie (Perciformes, Sphyraenidae). Most of the 21 species of barracuda occur in schools, highlighting the observation that predatory as well as prey fishes form aggregations (Chapters 19, 20, 22). Blackfins grow to about 1 m length, display the silvery coloration typical of water column dwellers, and are frequently encountered by divers around Indo-Pacific reefs. Barracudas are fast-start predators (Chapter 8), and the pan-tropical Great Barracuda, Sphyraena barracuda, frequently causes ciguatera fish poisoning among humans (Chapter 25). Longhorn Cowfish, Lactoria cornuta (Tetraodontiformes: Ostraciidae), Papua New Guinea. Slow moving and seemingly awkwardly shaped, the pattern of flattened, curved, and angular trunk areas made possible by the rigid dermal covering provides remarkable lift and stability (Chapter 8). A Silvertip Shark, Carcharhinus albimarginatus (Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae), with a Sharksucker (Echeneis naucrates, Perciformes: Echeneidae) attached.

  • HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT of the MUNICIPALITY of SAN PABLO, ISABELA Philippine Copyright © 15 January 2018
    Republic of the Philippines Province of Isabela ISABELA TOURISM OFFICE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF SAN PABLO, ISABELA Philippine Copyright © 15 January 2018 In recorded history, the oldest existing pueblo of the Province of Isabela since its foundation up to present time is the town of San Pablo. The territory of what is now the Municipality of San Pablo, Isabela was originally incorporated in the territory then known as La Irraya. Irraya (Addaya and Yrraya in other manuscripts) region comprised the vast area from Tuguegarao in Cagayan province up to the present Gamu town in Isabela province. Irraya was also the term used for the native’s name and their dialect. Irraya is an Ibanag word which means “upriver”. In the Gaddang dialect, the term “dirraya” also means “upriver”. In 1607, the provincial chapter of the Holy Rosary Province (or Dominicans) ordered Frays Luis Flores and Francisco Minaio to the Irraya speaking Pilitan (now a barangay of Tumauini town) and its adjoining communities, to exert all efforts that the natives must learn to speak Ibanag and to minister to them in the said language. In short, Ibanag (Ybanag) was made the official language in the valley. Ultimately, the distinct Irraya area, its people and the dialect became extinct with the whole area, its residents and tongue now known in the modern world as Ibanag. Only a handful from barangays Tallag and San Bernardo in Cabagan town can still remember some Irraya phrases. As a result of the historic Irraya Revolt on November 8, 1621, a new town was organized by Dominican missionary, Fray Pedro de Santo Tomas, gathering the Irrayas from the former Christian missions of Pilitan, Abbuatan, Bolo and Batavag and named it “Maquila” which was situated at the junction of the Cagayan and Pinacanauan Rivers of Tuguegarao.

  • Dante M. Aquino2 Introduction the Forests in the Sierra Madre
    , n/ ORKSHOP IN POLITICW:/TfiEOHY AND POLICY ANALYSIS 513 NORTH PARK INDIANA UNIVERSITY BLOOMW3TON, INDIANA 47408-3188 NON-TIMBER FOREST PRODUCTS UTILIZATION IN A TOWN IN THE SIERRA MOUNTAINS1 Dante M. Aquino2 Introduction The forests in the Sierra Madre Mountains SeT& major sourcegof income for the subsistence of many households within the uplands. They are the sources of sawlogs, fuelwood, and other products in various forms. Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) , more commonly called "minor forest products" in the past, abound in these mountains. Because of the great demand for NTFPs as raw materials for handicrafts (basketry, wood carvings, & wooven items) and furniture, and because of the recent restrictions in logging, exploitation pressures on them are becoming strong. In the forest areas, the very survival of the people is inextricably tied to the productivity of these areas (Briones, 1989) . Their dependency ends when the forest resources are depleted (Ramirez, 1988). It is therefore necessary to come up with policies so that forest utilization can be rationalized and be managed on a sustainable basis. Objectives This paper was derived from a portion of the study undertaken by the author for his MS Environmental Studies program. The study was conducted at San Mariano, Isabela, -a town within the Sierra Madre Mountains, where some major non-timber forest products (NTFPs) were highly commercialized and have a significant influence on the livelihood of the people. The objectives of this paper are: (1) to describe the utilization system of the two NTFPs significantly contributing to 'Paper presented during the International Association for the Study of Common Property (IASCP) Fourth Annual Common Property Conference on June 16-19, 1993, Philippine Village Hotel, Metro Manila, Philippines.
