The 7 Lakes of San Pablo City Research Project

This project has generated various researches and thesis for

both undergraduate and graduate students work. The studies focused
on water quality assessments which considered the physico-chemical
analyses of the water, the identification of biological indicators to
pollution, sediment analyses, phytoplankton inventory and colliform
contamination. Other than water quality assessments, are researches
on nutrient availability and dispersion, bathymetry and soil analyses.
The impacts of aquaculture being a major livelihood program of the
lake shore communities, domestic and agricultural activities are
studied and correlated with the sustainability of the lakes. The ES
Department has actively adopted the lakes not only as research areas
by also for social service and extension work with emphasis on
community development through information dissemination. Recent
collaborative work with the Ateneo Innovation Center looked into the
use of solar-powered temperature and dissolved oxygen sensors to
immediately identify changes in water quality. The set up provided an
early warning system for the fisherfolks on the occurrence of a fish
kill in the lake.
