Practical techniques for mapping small patches of mangroves
; Primavera, Jurgenne 
; ; (Springer, 2010)
; ; (Springer, 2010)
Practical mapping methods employing GPS field surveys and manual image analyses with affordable software were used to assess two mangrove sites in Aklan Province, NE Panay Island, central Philippines. The Jawili mangroves, ...
Distribution pattern of shrimps and fish among Avicennia and Rhizophora microhabitats in the Pagbilao mangroves, Philippines
; ; ; Primavera, Jurgenne (Elsevier, 1999)
(Elsevier, 1999)
For sustainable management of mangrove ecosystems, there is a pressing need to increase our knowledge of fish and invertebrates associated with this system. This study sampled microhabitats (89–258 m<sup>2</sup>) ...
Ethnobiology, socio-economics and management of mangrove forests: A review
; ; ; ; ; ; Primavera, Jurgenne ; ; (Elsevier, 2008)
; ; (Elsevier, 2008)
There is growing research interest in the ethnobiology, socio-economics and management of mangrove forests. Coastal residents who use mangroves and their resources may have considerable botanical and ecological knowledgeable ...
A review of mangrove rehabilitation in the Philippines: successes, failures and future prospects
Primavera, Jurgenne ; (Springer, 2008)
; (Springer, 2008)
From half a million hectares at the turn of the century, Philippine mangroves have declined to only 120,000 ha while fish/shrimp culture ponds have increased to 232,000 ha. Mangrove replanting programs have thus been ...
Seasonal abundance, distribution and recruitment of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in replanted mangroves
; ; Lebata, Junemie H. ; ; Primavera, Jurgenne (Elsevier, 2006)
; ; Primavera, Jurgenne (Elsevier, 2006)
The abundance and distribution of mud crabs were studied in a replanted mangrove forest in Buswang, Aklan, Philippines. Two fishing gears, lift nets and bamboo traps, were used to monitor relative abundance of Scylla spp. ...
Size and diel differences in activity patterns of Metapenaeus ensis, Penaeus latisulcatus and P. merguiensis
Primavera, Jurgenne ; Lebata, Ma. Junemie Hazel L. (Taylor & Francis, 2000)
