Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides.

  • Socio-Economics, Institutional Support, and Intervention Programs Toward Sustainable Fisheries Management in Lake Mainit, Philippines
    Socio-Economics, Institutional Support, and Intervention Programs Toward Sustainable Fisheries Management in Lake Mainit, Philippines Asuncion B. De Guzman, Alita E. Openiano, Marilou M. Ologuin and Jeanette J. Samson Mindanao State University at Naawan, 9023 Naawan, Misamis Oriental E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Lake Mainit is an important natural resource shared by two provinces in northern Mindanao, Surigao del Norte and Agusan del Norte, notable for being the deepest and the fourth largest lake in the Philippines. This wetland ecosystem supports a thriving freshwater fishery and the livelihood of more than 4,000 fishers. At least 19 types of traditional and ingenious modifications of fishing gears are used. On the average Lake Mainit fishers earn an estimated monthly income of Php4,340 which falls below the poverty threshold for an average family in rural Philippines. Part of a comprehensive resource assessment project in Lake Mainit is a socio- economic profiling and appraisal of the numerous intervention programs in fisheries management and livelihood development introduced into the lakeshore communities in an attempt to improve the ecological and socio-economic situation around the lake. The results of this assessment will provide the scientific basis for formulating a comprehensive fisheries management plan for Lake Mainit that shall, in turn, be integrated into the Lake Mainit Development Alliance (LMDA) development agenda to help restore Lake Mainit fisheries to sustainable levels by addressing issues on declining water quality, regulation of fishing effort, and decreasing fisher income. Keywords: Lake Mainit, socio-economics, management issues, intervention programs, LMDA. INTRODUCTION Lake Mainit is an ecologically important resource within two provincial jurisdictions in the Caraga Region, namely, Agusan del Norte and Surigao del Norte, bordered by eight municipalities that comprise the Lake Mainit Watershed (Fig.

    ANTHROPOLOGICAL PAPERS OF THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY VOLUME XXIII NEW YORK PUBLISHED BY ORDER OF THE TRUSTEES 1925 Editor CLARK WISSLER FOREWORD Louis ROBERT SULLIVAN Since this volume is largely the work of the late Louis Robert Sulli- van, a biographical sketch of this able anthropologist, will seem a fitting foreword. Louis Robert Sullivan was born at Houlton, Maine, May 21, 1892. He was educated in the public schools of Houlton and was graduated from Bates College, Lewiston, Maine, in 1914. During the following academic year he taught in a high school and on November 24, 1915, he married Bessie Pearl Pathers of Lewiston, Maine. He entered Brown University as a graduate student and was assistant in zoology under Professor H. E. Walters, and in 1916 received the degree of master of arts. From Brown University Mr. Sullivan came to the American Mu- seum of Natural History, as assistant in physical anthropology, and during the first years of his connection with the Museum he laid the foundations for his future work in human biology, by training in general anatomy with Doctor William K. Gregory and Professor George S. Huntington and in general anthropology with Professor Franz Boas. From the very beginning, he showed an aptitude for research and he had not been long at the Museum ere he had published several important papers. These activities were interrupted by our entrance into the World War. Mr. Sullivan was appointed a First Lieutenant in the Section of Anthropology, Surgeon-General's Office in 1918, and while on duty at headquarters asisted in the compilation of the reports on Defects found in Drafted Men and Army Anthropology.
