Preliminary results of feeding aquatic macrophytes to Penaeus monodon juveniles
Primavera, Jurgenne 
; (Elsevier, 1989)
; (Elsevier, 1989)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (PL<sub>50</sub>) were fed live and decaying aquatic macrophytes and a commercial grow-out pellet (40% crude protein) in 80-l glass tanks over a 30-day period. Growth and survival were significantly ...
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. ...
Effect of different mangrove-to-pond area ratios on influent water quality and WSSV occurrence in Penaeus monodon semi-intensive farms using the greenwater culture technique
Tendencia, Eleonor ; ; Primavera, Jurgenne ; (Elsevier, 2012)
; ; Primavera, Jurgenne ; (Elsevier, 2012)
White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) has been affecting the shrimp industry worldwide for two decades now. It continues to bring economic losses to affected farms. Despite the many studies on its epidemiology, there is no ...
Baseline assessment of fisheries for three species of mud crabs (Scylla spp.) in the mangroves of Ibajay, Aklan, Philippines

; ; Primavera, Jurgenne ; ; (University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, 2007)
Stock enhancement through habitat restoration and habitat release have both been considered as approaches to the management of declining Scylla spp. Prior to stock enhancement trials, the present study was conducted to ...
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)
; Lebata, Ma. Junemie Hazel L. (Taylor & Francis, 2000)
The nursery function of mangroves as shelter has been postulated to explain the positive correlation between shrimp catches and mangrove area. This study was undertaken to document shelter use and other activities in ...
Collection of the clam Anodontia edentula in mangrove habitats in Panay and Guimaras, central Philippines
Primavera, Jurgenne ; Lebata, M. J. H. L. ; ; Altamirano, Jon (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2002)
; Lebata, M. J. H. L. ; ; Altamirano, Jon (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2002)
The mangrove clam Anodontia edentula is highly prized in the Philippines for its flavor and large size. Because this infaunal species is found down to one meter deep in mangrove areas, harvesting the clam reportedly damages ...
A survey of chemical and biological products used in intensive prawn farms in the Philippines
Primavera, Jurgenne ; ; ; (Elsevier, 1993)
; ; ; (Elsevier, 1993)
With attractive prawn export prices and the availability of hatchery fry and commercial feeds, Philippine aquaculture has experienced a shift from milkfish to prawn Penaeus monodon and an intensification from traditional ...
Non-linearity in ecosystem services: temporal and spatial variability in coastal protection
; ; ; ; ; ; ; Primavera, Jurgenne ; ; ; ; ; ; (Ecological Society of America, 2009)
; ; ; ; ; ; (Ecological Society of America, 2009)
Natural processes tend to vary over time and space, as well as between species. The ecosystem services these natural processes provide are therefore also highly variable. It is often assumed that ecosystem services are ...
