2004 Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics 2 0 0 4 Republika ng Pilipinas PAMBANSANG LUPON SA UGNAYANG PANG- ESTADISTIKA (NATIONAL STATISTICAL COORDINATION BOARD) http://www.nscb.gov.ph Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics 2004 November 2004 Republika ng Pilipinas PAMBANSANG LUPON SA UGNAYANG PANG-ESTADISTIKA (NATIONAL STATISTICAL COORDINATION BOARD) FOREWORD This is the third issue of the Compendium of Philippine Environment Statistics. The compendium is a compilation of statistical information collected from data produced by various government agencies and from data available in different statistical publications. The compilation of statistical data in this compendium is based on the Philippine Framework of Environment Statistics (PFDES) which in turn is based on the United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics. It covers data for the period 1992 to 2002, whenever possible. Latest figures presented vary depending on the availability of data. The PFDES provides a systematic approach to the development of environment statistics and is an instrument for compiling and integrating data coming from various data collecting institutions to make them more useful in the formulation and evaluation of socio-economic and environmental programs and policies. As in the previous editions, the focus of this compendium is on the five main items of environmental issues, namely: flora/fauna, atmosphere, water, land, mineral and energy and human settlements. The NSCB will strive to further improve the scope and coverage of the compendium in the future. It is hoped that this compendium will serve as a useful and convenient reference on the Philippine environment. With this publication the NSCB fulfills in part its function of providing information to planners, decision makers, researchers and other users towards sustainable development. The preparation of this publication would not have been possible without the valuable assistance and cooperation of the different source agencies. We take this opportunity to acknowledge their continued support towards a more responsive Philippine statistical system. ROMULO A.

  • Food Selection by Northern Yellow-Cheeked Crested Gibbons (Nomascus Annamensis)In Northern Cambodia
    Food Selection by Northern Yellow-cheeked Crested Gibbons (Nomascus annamensis)in Northern Cambodia Naven Hon A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ecology and Biodiversity School of Biological Sciences Victoria University of Wellington New Zealand 2016 i Abstract Tropical regions have extremely high plant diversity, which in turn supports a high diversity of animals. However, not all plant species are selected by animals as food sources, with some herbivores selecting only specific plants as food as not all plants have the same nutrient make up. Animals must select which food items to include in their diets, as the amount and type of nutrients in their diet can affect lifespan, health, fitness, and reproduction. Gibbon populations have declined significantly in recent years due to habitat destruction and hunting. Northern yellow-cheeked crested gibbon (Nomascus annamensis) is a newly described species, and has a limited distribution restricted to Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. The northern yellow-cheeked crested gibbons play an important role in seed dispersal, yet little is currently known about this species, including its food selection and nutritional needs. However, data on food selection and nutritional composition of selected food items would greatly inform the conservation of both wild and captive populations of this species. This study aims to quantify food selection by the northern yellow-cheeked crested gibbons by investigating the main plant species consumed and the influence of the availability of food items on their selection. The study also explores the nutritional composition of food items consumed by this gibbon species and identifying key plant species that provide these significant nutrients.

  • Gut Analysis of Small Non-Volant Mammals of Mt. Makiling, Luzon Island, Philippines Anna Pauline O
    Journal of Environmental Science and Management 17(2): 63-68 (December 2014) ISSN 0119-1144 Gut Analysis of Small Non-Volant Mammals of Mt. Makiling, Luzon Island, Philippines Anna Pauline O. de Guia1 and Ma. Niña Regina M. Quibod2 ABSTRACT Three non-native species (Rattus exulans, R. tanezumi and Mus musculus) of small non-volant mammals were recorded along various elevational gradients of Mount Makiling. Invertebrate remains and plant matter comprised the bulk of their diets based on the food items identifed. The identifed plant matter were leaves and seeds while invertebrates were easily identifable through body parts such as legs, head and antennae. Other contents identifed including vertebrate remains such as hair/fur, feathers and bones, plastics, rubber, stones, and intestinal worms were noted. Based on the calculated relative abundance of each food type, there is no signifcant difference in the diets of the three non-native rodent species. Preliminary results suggest that introduced rodents in Mt. Makiling have broad diets and there are no indications that their main diet includes native wildlife species. Traces of vertebrate remains, however, may indicate potential predation on wildlife species and further studies are needed to clarify this. Key words: rodents, gut analysis, endemic, non-native, elevational gradient INTRODUCTION The complexity of tropical mountain ecosystems endemic species (Rickart et al. 2007; Ong and Rickart 2008). have long provided haven for various Philippine wildlife R. exulans and R. tanezumi have been recorded at altitudes species.
