Reproduction: A few fishes don’t bring forth suddenly when setting under hostage conditions. Before, fish gonadotropin, a gathering of hormones that invigorate reproduction, was delivered in little sums by extraction and cleansing from unrefined arrangements of thousands of pituitary organs.

Approximately 70 percent of Timor-Leste’s rural population, totaling 840,000 people, faces high vulnerability to climate change, especially due to increased rainfall variability and extreme weather events. Both the remote interior and coastal regions are significantly exposed, with critical infrastructure like water supply systems, embankments, and roads often damaged by intensified climate events, leaving rural communities isolated and without basic services.
With the backing of the Green Climate Fund and UNDP, the Government of Timor-Leste is working to protect vulnerable communities and their assets from climate-induced disasters by addressing institutional, financial, and legislative barriers while enhancing the climate resilience of rural infrastructure.
An estimated 15% of the total population (more than 175,000 people) will directly benefit from more climate-resilient small-scale infrastructure – 38 new water supply systems, 25 irrigation schemes, 216 kilometres of rural roads, and 20 flood-protection infrastructure – as well as approximately 300 hectares of reforested and rehabilitated land, which will act as buffer against climate-induced disasters. The project is also strengthening institutional capacity for climate risk management and integrating climate risk information into planning processes.
These adaptation solutions are aimed at bringing about transformative change in the way in which Timor-Leste plans and develops rural infrastructure, safeguarding lives and livelihoods with social, economic and environmental benefits into the future.

This photo shows the branch of the bush where it changes from one plant species to the other within the one plant. You can see that the branch changes texture and color at the same place the leaves do.
