Hydrology and ecology-related aspects of managing the Agusan marsh

Abstract

This paper presents the basin hydrology of Agusan Marsh and the Agusan River Basin. Also presented are basic considerations in the management of the Agusan River Basin environment and discussions on the interaction of hydrology, geomorphology and ecology. In the last few years, there have been interest and plans for water resources developments in the Agusan River Basin. The paper likewise discusses the implications and impacts of these developments on the hydrology, geomorphology and ecology of Agusan Marsh and Agusan River Basin.
