  • Climate Change Impacts and Responses in the Philippines: Water Resources
    CLIMATE RESEARCH Vol. 12: 77–84, 1999 Published August 27 Clim Res Climate change impacts and responses in the Philippines: water resources Aida M. Jose, Nathaniel A. Cruz* Climatology and Agrometeorology Branch (CAB), Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), 1424 Quezon Ave., Quezon City, Philippines ABSTRACT: The Philippines, like many of the world’s poor countries, will be among the most vulnera- ble to the impacts of climate change because of its limited resources. As shown by previous studies, occurrences of extreme climatic events like droughts and floods have serious negative implications for major water reservoirs in the country. A preliminary and limited assessment of the country’s water resources was undertaken through the application of general circulation model (GCM) results and cli- mate change scenarios that incorporate incremental changes in temperature and rainfall and the use of a hydrological model to simulate the future runoff-rainfall relationship. Results showed that changes in rainfall and temperature in the future will be critical to future inflow in the Angat reservoir and Lake Lanao, with rainfall variability having a greater impact than temperature variability. In the Angat reser- voir, runoff is likely to decrease in the future and be insufficient to meet future demands for water. Lake Lanao is also expected to have a decrease in runoff in the future. With the expected vulnerability of the country’s water resources to global warming, possible measures to cope with future problems facing the country’s water resources are identified. KEY WORDS: Water resources · GCMs · CCCM · UKMO · GFDL · WatBal · Angat reservoir · Lake Lanao 1.

  • Water Quality in Pampanga River Along Barangay Buas in Candaba, Pampanga
    Presented at the DLSU Research Congress 2015 De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines March 2-4, 2015 Water Quality in Pampanga River Along Barangay Buas in Candaba, Pampanga Carolyn Arbotante, Jennifer Bandao, Agnes De Leon, Camela De Leon, Zenaida Janairo, Jill Lapuz, Ninez Bernardine Manaloto, Anabel Nacpil and Fritzie Salunga Department of Chemistry, College of Arts and Sciences, Angeles University Foundation Mac Arthur Highway, 2009 Angeles City, Philippines *[email protected] Abstract: Pampanga River traverses the provinces of Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, and Bulacan and is the second largest river in the whole of Luzon with a total length of 260 kilometers. It divides into small branches that empty to several fishponds especially in the town of Candaba. This study aimed to initially identify the physico- chemical characteristics of the river using some parameters such as pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, ammonia, nitrates, and phosphates. Dissolved oxygen, pH, and temperature were measured using DO meter, pH meter, and thermometer. Chemical tests were done on site using test kits from Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (API). It was found that ammonia and phosphate concentrations exceeded the maximum value required by the DAO 34 -Water Quality Standard for Class C Water. The DO concentration was below the minimum requirements for river water. Key Words: Candaba; Pampanga; River Water; Community 1. INTRODUCTION the barangay is directly connected to one side of the river and houses are built along the river bank. The Pampanga River with a total length of 260 town is more of a residential area with big factories kilometers, is the second largest river in the whole of not yet locally taking advantage of the river.

  • Flood Risk Assessment Under the Climate Change in the Case of Pampanga River Basin, Philippines
    FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT UNDER THE CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE CASE OF PAMPANGA RIVER BASIN, PHILIPPINES Santy B. Ferrer* Supervisor: Mamoru M. Miyamoto** MEE133631 Advisors: Maksym Gusyev*** Miho Ohara**** ABSTRACT The main objective of this study is to assess the flood risk in the Pampanga river basin that consists of the flood hazard, exposure, and risk in terms of potential flood fatalities and economic losses under the climate change. The Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation (RRI) model was calibrated using 2011 flood and validated with the 2009, 2012 and 2013 floods. The calibrated RRI model was applied to produce flood inundation maps based on 10-, 25, 50-, and 100-year return period of 24-hr rainfall. The rainfall data is the output of the downscaled and bias corrected MRI -AGCM3.2s for the current climate conditions (CCC) and two cases of future climate conditions with an outlier in the dataset (FCC-case1) and without an outlier (FCC-case2). For this study, the exposure assessment focuses on the affected population and the irrigated area. Based on the results, there is an increasing trend of flood hazard in the future climate conditions, therefore, the greater exposure of the people and the irrigated area keeping the population and irrigated area constant. The results of this study may be used as a basis for the climate change studies and an implementation of the flood risk management in the basin. Keywords: Risk assessment, Pampanga river basin, Rainfall-Runoff-Inundation model, climate change, MRI-AGCM3.2S 1. INTRODUCTION The Pampanga river basin is the fourth largest basin in the Philippines located in the Central Luzon Region with an approximate area of 10,545 km² located in the Central Luzon Region.

  • Binanog Dance
    Gluck Classroom Fellow: Jemuel Jr. Barrera-Garcia Ph.D. Student in Critical Dance Studies: Designated Emphasis in Southeast Asian Studies Flying Without Wings: The Philippines’ Binanog Dance Binanog is an indigenous dance from the Philippines that features the movement of an eagle/hawk to the symbolic beating of bamboo and gong that synchronizes the pulsating movements of the feet and the hands of the lead and follow dancers. This specific type of Binanog dance comes from the Panay-Bukidnon indigenous community in Panay Island, Western Visayas, Philippines. The Panay Bukidnon, also known as Suludnon, Tumandok or Panayanon Sulud is usually the identified indigenous group associated with the region and whose territory cover the mountains connecting the provinces of Iloilo, Capiz and Aklan in the island of Panay, one of the main Visayan islands of the Philippines. Aside from the Aetas living in Aklan and Capiz, this indigenous group is known to be the only ethnic Visayan language-speaking community in Western Visayas. SMILE. A pair of Binanog dancers take a pose They were once associated culturally as speakers after a performance in a public space. of the island’s languages namely Kinaray-a, Akeanon and Hiligaynon, most speakers of which reside in the lowlands of Panay and their geographical remoteness from Spanish conquest, the US invasion of the country, and the hairline exposure they had with the Japanese attacks resulted in a continuation of a pre-Hispanic culture and tradition. The Suludnon is believed to have descended from the migrating Indonesians coming from Mainland Asia. The women have developed a passion for beauty wearing jewelry made from Spanish coins strung together called biningkit, a waistband of coins called a wakus, and a headdress of coins known as a pundong.
