Rafael Dineros Guerrero III
Dr. Rafael D. Guerrero III is currently an Academician of
the National Academy of Science and Technology and a Professorial
Lecturer at the University of the Philippines’ School of Environmental
Science and Management (Los Baños). His specialization is PhD

Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (1976 - 1981), and
Executive Director of the Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine
Research and Development (1983).
He was recognized because of his scientific and technological contributions to the
development of sex reversal and hatchery techniques that led to the commercial production of high
yielding market-size tilapia in the Philippines and other countries, which is considered a milestone
in world aquaculture. In 1994, the Civil Service Commission bestowed upon him the Presidential
Lingkod Bayan Award for excellent public service. He was named one of The Outstanding

environments. However, many consider his most significant contribution to marine biodiversity
conservation to be the Philippines first artificial coral reef system (1977).
