- Fisheries Administrative Order No. 233: Series of 2010. Aquatic wildlife conservation.(Department of Agriculture, 2010-04-16)This Administrative Order, consisting of 5 Chapters and 1 Annex, In line with Rule 37.1 of the Joint DENR-DA-PCSD Administrative Order No. 1, Series of 2004, is promulgated pursuant to Republic Act 9147 or the Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act of 2001. It creates several authorities entitled to carry out research, control and manage the aquatic wildlife sector, such as: the National Aquatic Wildlife Management Committee (NAWMC) and establishes their composition, duties and responsibilities. This Order is divided as follows: Structures and Individuals for the Conservation of Aquatic Wildlife (Chap. I); Utilization of Aquatic Wildlife (Scientific Research on Aquatic Wildlife) (Chap. II); Fees and Charges (Chap. III); Fines and Penalties (Chap. IV); Miscellaneous Provisions (Chap. V). The Annex lays down a Preliminary List of Economically Important Aquatic Organisms.
- A multi-framework analysis of stakeholders’ perceptions in developing a localized blue carbon ecosystems strategy in Eastern Samar, PhilippinesQuevedo, Jay Mar D.; Ferrera, Charissa M.; Faylona, Marie Grace Pamela G.; Kohsaka, Ryo (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2024-01-25)Blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) are vital for global climate change mitigation and offer diverse local ecosystem co-benefits. Despite existing literatures on integrating national and international BCE agendas at the local level, the development and implementation of localized BCE strategies often lag behind. To provide insights on this knowledge gap, we present a case study conducted in Eastern Samar, Philippines. Employing a multi-framework analysis- encompassing DPSIR (drivers, pressures, state, impact, responses), SOAR (strengths, opportunities, aspirations, results), and PESTLE (political, economic, social, technological, legal, environmental) frameworks, stakeholder perceptions collected from focus group discussions highlight issues and challenges in developing and implementing a BCE strategy. Findings reveal that the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 in the study sites stimulated conservation efforts and raised awareness, but governance structures and policy enforcement influence the success and longevity of management and conservation efforts. Through the integration of multiple frameworks, this study outlined a potential localized BCE strategy, emphasizing both internal priorities such as stakeholder engagement and alternative livelihoods and external priorities related to policy and technological supports. While developed based on a specific case study in the Philippines, the proposed strategy is presented in a general manner, enabling its potential replication in other provinces in the Philippines or in countries with similar geographic settings.
- Development of autonomous multi-sensor ocean monitoring instrument designed for complex archipelagic watersPurba, Noir P.; Faizal, Ibnu; Valino, Darryl Anthony; Kang, Hooi Siang; Sugianto, Erik; martasuganda, marine kenzi; Abimanyu, A.; Bratasena, T.; Zenyda, K. S.; Prayogo, N.; Ramdhani, F.; Khan, A. M. A. (Springer, 2023-01-22)This paper presents the development of low-cost multi-sensor ocean monitoring instrument to measure oceanographic parameters. The aim of this instrument is to fulfil the monitoring specifically for archipelagic countries with complex waters, and it allows for both vertical and horizontal measurements. The platform contains removable sensors, rechargeable batteries, satellite system, and micro-controller. Inside the instrument, the probes are primarily to measure acidity level (pH), water temperature (°C), salinity (ppt), conductivity (ms/cm), turbidity (NTU), and depth (m). Furthermore, data are stored in an internal SD card and simultaneously transmitted to a website portal data via satellite after it goes to the surface water. For validation, several tests had been conducted in controlled laboratory conditions and field setting, in which the test results had shown satisfactory results. In the future, the system will be upgraded by adding extra units of antenna, chlorophyll sensors, and a power changer made from thrusters. Currently, this instrument is operational and available for use in archipelagic countries with dynamics depth.Development of the ARHEA was funded by AIS (Archipelagic Island State) Grant 2020–2021. This research is a collaboration between MEAL UNPAD, MOCEAN, and PT Robomarine Indonesia. We would like to thank the KOMITMEN Research Group. Arnisa, Sarah, Adli Attamimi, and Jaya Kelvin had been tremendously helpful in ofering scientifc and outreach guidance throughout the project.
