  • 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.

  • Trials and Tribulations in Locating Tree Farmers and Sites for Research and Extension Activities
    15. TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS IN LOCATING TREE FARMERS AND SITES FOR RESEARCH AND EXTENSION ACTIVITIES Edwin Cedamon, Samuel Bernaldez and Jack Baynes The major aim of ACIAR project ASEM 2003/052 is to improve financial returns to existing smallholder tree farms in Leyte through a number of extension activities. In order to identify sites suitable for extension activities, visits were made to some tree farms (either registered or not registered with DENR) in Leyte. For this purpose, the initial aim was to identify at least 30 tree farms representing a range of age classes, species, soil types, elevation and climate. In addition, tree farms should have an area of at least 0.25 ha. Various difficulties were encountered in fieldwork designed to locate these tree farms. The main reason was associated with inconsistencies in the database of registered tree farms compiled by Community Environment and Natural Resources Offices (CENROs) which included information concerning tree farm location, owner, species and plantation area. Specific difficulties encountered in finding sites included nonexistence of some registered tree farms, inability to interview some farm owners because they do not reside near their tree farm, some tree farms have a low stocking against what was listed with the CENRO. Despite these difficulties, 76 tree farms were found during October to December 2004. Seventy one tree farms were GPS referenced and 37 tree farm owners were interviewed. INTRODUCTION ACIAR Project ASEM 2003/052 – titled ‘Improving financial returns to smallholder tree farmers in the Philippines’ involves cooperative research between staff of the College of Forestry at Leyte State University, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and Australian researchers.
