Golden whorls on a blue pond - selected as the best image in the Modern NANO-art gallery of ODNN07 (One-dimensional Nanostructures and Nanoarchitectonics 2007). This artistic image shows spiral structures of YBaCuO superconducting film, deposited by pulsed laser deposition. Image courtesy of K. Bagarinao.

Welcome to the Bahay Kubo Research website!

This site was established to recognize the Filipino researchers in various fields of expertise from all corners of the world. As an initial task, a compilation of their short biographies, their current research interests, and list of their publications is undertaken. The information gathered so far are now posted in the Profile section of the site. The Database section contains an online interface where Filipino researchers can add or edit their research profiles. The Saliksik section features articles written by Filipino researchers related to their fields of study. Enjoy surfing and learn more about the talents and achievements of dedicated Filipino researchers!

Research

In aquaculture or the farming of fish in a controlled environment like in fishponds, in land-based tanks, and in net cages in the sea, growth is highly dependent on food availability. Whether the culture system used is extensive, where the fish stocks rely mainly on the presence of natural food, or intensive, where the stocks are largely dependent on artificial feeds, the food factor is a major determinant of success.

Research

In the transition from one culture to another, the value systems of a culture of origin could be challenged by the cultural values of the host society. However, immigrants try to adapt to their environment as a coping strategy in spite of the multiplicity and complexity of challenges in cross cultural transition (Ward, Bochner & Furnham, 2001).

The mobility of aqueous inorganic arsenic in the geothermal environment is influenced by the (1) aqueous arsenic speciation, (2) affinity of arsenic aqueous species to minerals, and (3) stability of mineral host. These factors also dictate arsenic contamination susceptibility in areas with naturally high arsenic concentrations such as in geothermal fields. [Read More] [Add Comments]

The terahertz (THz) frequency region, spanning the 100 GHz to 10 THz range, bridges the gap between electronics (millimeter and sub millimeter waves) and photonics (far infrared). At present, interest in THz research has grown because of the wealth of promising applications in the fields of fingerprint spectroscopy of biomolecules, environment monitoring, semiconductor and medical imaging, and even law enforcement.

Processed satellite imagery and digital elevation models are initially used to define a suite of seven elastic tectonic blocks. Block velocities inferred from GPS observations as well as earthquake slip vectors are then combined in an inversion process to constrain tectonic block velocities and rotations as well as to obtain estimates of slip and locking strain along major faults.

Modification of dietary habits is an important component in the prevention, management, and treatment of chronic diseases. In large scale community-based intervention trials, the use of more precise methods of dietary assessment can be particularly expensive. In this study, a 171-item food frequency questionnaire to measure nutrient intake was developed. [Read More] [Add Comments]
