Sespeñe†･Marla Maniquiz-Redillas･김이형･추연욱 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Kongju National University Cheonan City, Korea (Received : 22 June 2016, Revised: 02 August 2016, Accepted: 02 August 2016) Abstract The Philippines is a naturally water-rich archipelago capable of sustaining its ecological goods and providing services and needs of its people. Several waterbodies have been declared as natural wetlands in the country supporting the needs of community like water and food. In this study, 65 natural wetlands were considered including six sites that were identified as ‘Wetlands of International Importance’ such as Naujan Lake National Park, Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. There are 22 wetland types presented in this research categorizing the Philippine wetlands. Philippine wetlands are now facing tremendous challenges such as land use conversion, abuse of resources, pollution coming from domestic, industrial and agricultural activities, and climate change. This paper provides an overview of Philippine wetlands in terms of their characteristics and components, impacts in the ecosystem, and the challenges they are dealing with.

  • Limnology of Lake Wood: an Ancestral Lake of the Subanen Tribe
    Philippine Journal of Science 150 (5): 1231-1243, October 2021 ISSN 0031 - 7683 Date Received: 14 Dec 2020 Limnology of Lake Wood: An Ancestral Lake of the Subanen Tribe Marjohn Y. Baludo1*, Rey Donne S. Papa3, and Francis S. Magbanua2 1Institute of Environmental Science and Meteorology; 2Institute of Biology University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City 1101 Philippines 3Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science; and Research Center for the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Graduate School University of Santo Tomas, Manila 1015 Philippines Relatively limited information exists on Lake Wood’s limnology and ecology, an ancestral lake of the Subanens. Here, we provide a limnological characterization of the lake – exploring its physical, chemical, and biological features. The data on lake morphometry were gathered using an echosounder; lower depth water samples were collected using a Niskin water sampler for physicochemical analyses while surface water samples were collected at five sampling sites for phosphate (PO4) analysis; and zooplankton samples were collected at several depths through vertical towing in March–April 2019. Lake Wood, located at 320 m above sea level, has an extensive surface area covering 7.38 km2 with a maximum depth of 85 m. Lake water comes from rainfall, small rivers, and groundwater and empties into the Dumanquilas Bay via its only outlet – the Biswangan River. Land use of the lake is predominantly cultivated land. Moreover, based on the trophic state index (TSI), the lake’s current trophic status is eutrophic. During the study periods, thermocline and oxycline formed at 15 m below the surface of the lake.

Cerilles State College, Mati, San Miguel. Zamboangadel Sur, 2 Environmental Biology Division, Institute of Biological Sciences, University of the Philippines Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines Abstract. A pioneering study was done on Lakewood, a freshwater lake located in western Mindanao, Philippines to assess its water quality and fish fauna diversity. The baseline limnology data and environmental conditions of the lake serve as bases to improve local planning, policy formulation and sustainable management of the lake. In situ determination of water quality parameters were done on depth- integrated grab samples using portable probe/digital instruments concerning water temperature, TDS, pH, electrical conductivity, chl a, and a depth profile of DO. Identification of the fish species caught was done to document the aquatic faunal diversity present in the lake in association with the existing physicochemical properties of the water. Depth profiles of WT and DO within a 10-m deep water column gave ranges of 26.6 (10-m) - 28.8 0C (surface); and 5.96 mg.L-1- 7.8 mg.L-1, respectively. The results gave no significant spatial variation. Surface determinations of TDS was 57.44 – 65.11mg.L-1, pH, 7.9-8.8; and EC, 0.07 - 0.09 μS/cm. Chl a that ranged from 0.6 to2.3 mg.L-1; and the BOD, 0.37 – 4.30 ml.L-1 both yielded significant spatial differences.

  • Zamboanga Peninsula Regional Recovery Program 2020-2022
    ZAMBOANGA PENINSULA REGIONAL RECOVERY PROGRAM 2020-2022 Regional Development Council Regional Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council Region IX 15 June 2020 MESSAGE The Corona Virus-19 (COVID-19) pandemic has caught all of us unaware. It has not only disrupted our normal daily lives but also caused damage to our economy, infrastructures, livelihood, agriculture, health and environment , among others. The different national and regional line agencies and local government units (LGUs) have been working relentlessly together to establish health protocols and guidelines to minimize the damage and lessen the impact of COVID-19 to the people and their means of living, and to save lives. The private sector is also doing its share as partner of the government during this crisis. As we are rebuilding our economy, we hope that the lessons we are learning from this pandemic would influence and transform us to a new and better normal way of living. The Zamboanga Peninsula Recovery Program (RRP) is intended to help the region recover from the impact of COVID-19. It will serve as the region’s blueprint towards rebuilding a resilient and better community. It includes an assessment of the extent of damage caused by the pandemic, the government’s response, the framework on how to go about rebuilding, and the proposed programs and projects for recovery. The RRP shall be undertaken through the collaboration among the line agencies, LGUs, the private sector and the citizenry. We recognize the efforts put together by the region’s stakeholders and their contribution in the formulation of the Regional Recovery Program in such a short period of time.

Calimbo, 2Bryan Gel S. Larede and 1Jasper B. Locson 1Zamboanga del Sur Provincial Government College, Aurora, Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines 2Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office, Zamboanga del Sur *Corresponding author: [email protected] Date received: September 11, 2019 Date accepted: December 10, 2019 Date published: December 22, 2019 ABSTRACT In this study, research on the fish composition and abundance in the freshwater ecosystem of Mount Timolan Protected Landscape, Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines is presented. The Mount Timolan Protected Landscape is reported as a forest reserved because of its watershed importance. However, studies on fish fauna on its freshwater ecosystem have never been studied. Monthly sampling of fish fauna was conducted in the four established stations in the MTPL from December 2018 to May 2019 revealed a total of 2,422 individuals representing 12 species from 9 families. Shannon-Weiner Diversity Index (‘H) and Simpsons Dominance (D) was found to be high with values of 2.59 and 1.02, respectively. Interestingly, this study revealed an established population of native of species in Upper Nilo stream with no other introduced species found. Monitoring study is further recommended to evaluate the current status of the fish species of freshwater ecosystem of Mount Timolan Protected Landscape. Keywords: dominance; ichthyofauna; introduced species; fish species monitoring; native species. INTRODUCTION Freshwater ecosystem to-date face challenges worldwide and there have been no comprehensive global analysis of freshwater biodiversity available compare to those recently completed for terrestrial ecosystems and even basic global mapping of inland water to estimate changes in the degree of lakes, rivers and wetlands is deficient (Myers et al., 2000; Dudgeon et al., 2005).

Cudal, email: [email protected] Abstract Study on physicochemical properties and freshwater fish was conducted in Lake Duminagat, a lone small crater lake of Mount Malindang Natural Park with a total area of 8.04 hectares. Temperature, pH, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), electrical conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and total dissolved solids of (TDS) were the water parameters analyzed. The survey was undertaken in May 2013. The pH, turbidity, and DO in Lake Duminagat fall within the permissible limit for Class AA water body classification intended primarily for waters having watersheds that are declared as protected areas, whereas temperature and TDS were below the standards. Not all of the water parameters analyzed showed significant relationship with water depth. A total of six species of freshwater fish belonging to three families was collected. Diversity Index was found to be high (1.63). The most abundant species in the lake are the native Barbodes binotatus (34.43%) and the exotic Xiphophorus helleri (21.31%), whereas the native Anguilla marmorata (4.92%) was found to be the least abundant.

This study was conducted to describe the body shape variations in Poecilia reticulata from three selected rivers in Mindanao Island, Philippines. Landmark-based geometric morphometrics were utilized to analyze the patterns of body shape variations within and between populations of P. reticulata. 20 landmarks were selected and digitized on the left side of 90 males and 80 females adult fish. Relative warp analysis was conducted on Procrustes-fitted landmarks and the generated relative warp scores were used as variables for multivariate statistical analysis of variations within, between and among sexes and populations. Results showed sexual dimorphism in body shapes within populations of P. reticulata. Females showed downward bent body shapes, while the males showed upward bent, except for fish collected from Tubod, Lanao del Norte, where body shapes between sexes are in the opposite. Variations in body shapes between populations were also observed in the head, midsection of the body, caudal peduncle and insertion of the anal and dorsal fins. It is argued that the morphological variations observed between populations could be attributed to differences in environmental conditions in the selected rivers. Key Words: procrustes, landmarks, relative warps, geometric morphometrics, canonical variance analysis. Introduction. Guppies, Poecilia reticulata (Peters 1860) commonly known as “million fish”, or “rainbow fish” are small benthopelagic, live-bearing fish, that are occupying a wide range of habitats, such as estuaries, lakes, ponds, ditches and canals (Page & Burr 1991).
