The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has begun establishing the Guiuan Marine Scientific Research Station (MSRS) in Barangay Baras, Guiuan, Eastern Samar.<\/p>\n
Once completed, the facility will serve as a dedicated center for marine research, training and scientific collaboration in Eastern Visayas, the DENR regional office here said on Monday.<\/p>\n
The Guiuan MSRS is designed as a hub for the study of marine biodiversity and coastal ecosystems, generating critical scientific data to support the protection, conservation and sustainable use of marine and coastal resources.<\/p>\n
The station will also host capacity-building activities, providing training opportunities for researchers, local government personnel, students, and coastal communities.<\/p>\n
The facility is expected to support science-based policymaking, climate change resilience planning, and the sustainable development of fisheries and ecotourism, with direct benefits for local fisherfolk and nearby coastal communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce operational, the research station will strengthen collaboration among government agencies, academic institutions, and local stakeholders, serving as a venue for inter-agency cooperation, field research, and community engagement focused on marine conservation and resource management,\u201d DENR Regional Executive Director Arturo Salazar said.<\/p>\n
As part of a nationwide initiative, the Guiuan MSRS will rise on a 1,796-square-meter site and will represent one of the country\u2019s six marine biogeographic regions. (PNA)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
