  • How HERO Did It
    How HERO did it. Now it can be told. HERO is the Ham Emergency Radio Operations formally launched upon the unveiling of the logo design contest winner during the 82nd Anniversary of the Philippine Amateur Radio Association (PARA) Inc. – the Philippine national association for the amateur radio service. Preparations HERO was activated on December 4, 2015 when it became imminent that typhoon Hagupit (local name Ruby) will make landfall somewhere in the Visayas region. It was to be a live test for HERO with Super Typhoon Yolanda in mind. Upon its activation, a lot of traffic was devoted to trying to muster hams on the 40-meter band (the PARA center of frequency on 40 meter is at 7.095 MHz). Members were advised to start building up on their redundant power supplies such as generators, solar panels, batteries and other imaginable means available as power sources. Owing to the large swathe of typhoon Ruby, it was expected to be almost like Haiyan/Yolanda. There were striking similarities. Initially, Districts 4, 5 and 9 as well as Districts 6, 7 and 8 were alerted. Both Ruby and Yolanda came from the lower quadrant of the typhoon belt. Both were packing winds more than 200 kph near the center. Both had huge footprint or diameter, with Ruby estimated to be around 600 kilometers. Both were expected to generate 3 to 6 meters storm surges and were definitely considered dangerous to lives and properties. Government was not leaving anything to chance and there were plans to forcibly evacuate people along the typhoon track especially those in the coastal area.

Nine 20x20m plots and 18 line transects were established for the floral inventory. The faunal assessment was conducted in transects laid in three sites within Paranas. Secondary data was collected from published articles regarding biodiversity in Samar Island Natural Park (SINP). The list shows 99 plant species representing 63 genera and 44 families. Eighteen species were identified as non-endemic and 38 species were Philippine endemics. New island records of Tectaria calcarea (C. Presl) Copel., Artocarpus rubrovenius Warb. and Hancea wenzeliana (Slik) S.E.C.Sierra, Kulju & Welzen were also reported. Eleven plants are listed as endangered in the IUCN Red List and/or DENR DAO 2017-11.
