The study analyzed data from 514 smallholder farmers involved in Climate-Smart Villages in Guatemala and Honduras. 

The findings show that trust among farmers is a key factor in increasing the likelihood of knowledge sharing about climate-smart agricultural practices. 

The research found that mutual support is particularly important in communities with low levels of trust, helping to sustain the flow of knowledge among farmers. 

Blanco de Piura, a native fine-flavor cacao variety recognized for its white beans and high sensory quality, achieved yields of 1,500 kg of dry beans per hectare, comparable to those of high-yielding commercial varieties. 

Renewing trees through grafting with selected native plant material increased production by 59% in just three years. 

The findings show that it is possible to increase productivity and farmers' incomes while conserving the genetic diversity of native cacao. 

Researchers and divers at the Alcatrazes Archipelago Wildlife Refuge have recorded evidence that sand tiger sharks use the site not only for mating, but also for gestation.

Researchers analyzed samples of sediment preserved in stalagmites to reconstruct the region’s climatic history. The 20th century saw one of the highest frequencies of extreme events in the last 7,500 years.

The statistical analysis, based on the Wilcoxon test with a significance level of p < 0.05, confirmed substantial improvements across all participant groups. Overall, the ability to distinguish between hypocenter and epicenter increased by 45.39%; understanding of seismic magnitude improved by 39.01%; and the visual identification of structural vulnerabilities increased between 25% and 38%, with moderate to large effect sizes.

A 24-year study in Fray Jorge National Park in northern Chile shows how climate variability can reshape predator-prey relationships. By analyzing 16,932 owl pellets collected between 1990 and 2015, researchers found that changes in rainfall and temperature influenced the diets of three owl species and altered the structure of their food web. The findings highlight the importance of long-term ecological research for understanding how semi-arid ecosystems may respond to climate change.
