How effective have been guerrilla occupation and protected areas in avoiding deforestation in Colombia?

Luisa Fernanda Lievano-Latorre, Fernanda T. Brum, Rafael Loyola

Summary: The study found that only large Colombian PAs were effective in avoiding deforestation over the last 17 years, while the presence of FARC increased deforestation in the country. The results show that establishing PAs alone is not sufficient for positive conservation outcomes. Colombia faces challenges in reducing its deforestation rate and enhancing the impact of PAs in preventing deforestation.

Assessing Brazilian protected areas through social media: Insights from 10 years of public interest and engagement

Carolina Neves Souza, Joao A. G. R. Almeida, Ricardo A. Correia, Richard J. Ladle, Adriana R. Carvalho, Ana C. M. Malhado

Summary: Social media platforms, such as Twitter, provide valuable data for studying public interest in nature and conservation, as demonstrated in this study on Brazilian protected areas. The findings indicate a steady mention of protected areas in tweets, but a significant increase in engagement from 2018 onwards and particularly during a change in the Brazilian government. The study also highlights the uneven distribution of public interest across different categories of protected areas, with national parks receiving the most attention. The research emphasizes the potential of monitoring social media content and engagement as an early warning system and source of data for supporting policy and management of protected areas.

El Nino Modoki can be mostly predicted more than 10 years ahead of time

X. San Liang, Fen Xu, Yineng Rong, Renhe Zhang, Xu Tang, Feng Zhang

Summary: This study shows that the El Nino Modoki phenomenon, which has lower forecast skill than the classical models, can actually be predicted more than 10 years in advance by tracing the information flow from solar activity 45 years ago to sea surface temperature. Using a multidimensional system based on this causal structure, accurate predictions of events 12 years in advance have been achieved through a causal AI approach.

Time and risk preferences of individuals, married couples and unrelated pairs

Maria Bernedo Del Carpio, Francisco J. Alpizar, Paul Ferraro

Summary: Married couples and unrelated pairs show similarity in risk preferences, but exhibit a group effect on time preferences. The study finds that joint decisions of couples and pairs display more impatience compared to individual decisions, with this difference being similar for both types of pairs. This suggests the presence of only a group effect on time preferences.

Credibility crisis in agricultural economics

Paul J. Ferraro, Pallavi Shukla

Summary: This study provides empirical evidence of research practices in agricultural economics that can undermine the credibility of empirical research. The findings reveal that in four popular journals, most studies are underpowered, leading to unreliable and exaggerated effect sizes due to publication bias. The problem is further worsened by selective reporting of statistically significant results and multiple hypothesis testing without adjusting statistical inferences. Survey respondents also reported engaging in practices consistent with these findings. Addressing these issues requires a change in the norms and incentives for authors by editors, reviewers, and donors.

High discount rates by private actors undermine climate change adaptation policies

Francisco Alpizar, Maria Bernedo del Carpio, Roger Cremades, Paul J. Ferraro

Summary: Adaptation is influenced by discount rates, and the role of private discount rates in shaping adaptation investments is often overlooked. This study demonstrates the negative correlation between household discount rates and investments in water storage tanks in Central America. High private discount rates hinder private adaptation investments, but strategies such as offering long-term loans or adjusting costs can help overcome this barrier.
