Introduction to Laguna Lake

To understand the uses and changes of wild-caught fish, we conducted 30 semi-structured interviews with fishers of Laguna Lake, Philippines.

The physical, chemical, and biological dynamics under changing atmospheric conditions of Laguna Lake, Philippines were analyzed from intensive observations.

Laguna Lake, the largest freshwater lake in the Philippines, is permanently subject to nutrient-driven eutrophication and pollution and experiences harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) periodically with serious socio-economic implications.

obtained from water samples of Laguna Lake, Philippines, and its tributaries for the purpose of source-tracking fecal contamination.

To evaluate the accuracy of proposed method, Laguna Lake, one of the largest lakes in Southeast Asia, is selected as the validation target.

As an initial step to deal with uncertainties, the Laguna Lake Development Authority allowed the operation of floating solar farms on a pilot scale for one year subject to certain requirements including the monitoring of essential water quality parameters in the pilot sites to determine the impacts.

Laguna Lake is an economically important resource in the Philippines, with reports of declining water quality due to fecal pollution.

Laguna Lake is the largest inland freshwater body in the Philippines.

In this study, Escherichia coli was isolated from the largest freshwater lake in the Philippines, Laguna Lake, to detect antibiotic resistance and the presence of ARGs.

Fecal pollution is a major contributor to the progressive degradation of Laguna Lake, the Philippines’ largest inland lake used for aquaculture, recreation, and as a source of irrigation and domestic water.

Six Physicochemical parameters; Biological Oxygen Demand, Minimum Dissolved Oxygen, Level of Acidity or pH, Nitrate, Phosphate, and Ammonia from Laguna Lake and its tributary rivers were examined from the year 2016 to 2019.

In this article, I examine the shifting political ecologies of governance of Laguna Lake, Philippines, in the context of historical and contemporary populist political rhetoric.

This chapter deals with the watershed and water resource management of Laguna Lake in the Philippines.

Laguna de Bay or Laguna Lake is one of the six major lakes in the Philippines to be in close contact with population activities due to the expansion of urban settlements in the immediate cities surrounding the lake, thus pushing the population to settle upon its shores.

Laguna Lake is significant to its surrounding cities and municipalities as it serves multiple purposes: flood basin, aquaculture, water source for irrigation and domestic use, among others.

This study aims to assess the applicability of Sentinel-3 OLCI for estimating chlorophylla (chl-a) concentration in Laguna Lake.

Eight Sentinel-3 images from different acquisition time and coincide in-situ measurements over Laguna Lake waters of Philippines were utilized to conduct the model training and testing.

Regular monitoring of water quality in Laguna Lake is important for it supports aquaculture and provides water supply for Metro Manila.
