Of the 30 days of the month, there were 26 in which the maximum temperature in San Juan exceeded 90 °F and five in which it reached or exceeded 95 °F.

With 20 extreme heat advisories and 27 extreme heat warnings issued, June 2023 set a precedent as one of the hottest months in Puerto Rico's climatological history.

San Juan, August 1, 2023 - The Inter-American University of Puerto Rico signed collaboration agreements with four universities in India aimed at developing educational efforts with an emphasis on science, research and technology. The respective agreements were established with Chhatrapati Shahu Ji Maharaj University (CSJMU) in the city of Kanpur, with GLA University (GLAU) in Mathura, Marwadi University in the city of Rajkot in the western state of Gujarat and Kanchi Mamunivar Centre in southern India. 

The study began in February and has since been dedicated to conducting the first high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys over the island and its surrounding waters.
A series of studies funded with more than $1 million in U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) funds will map the local geology and update Puerto Rico's seismic hazard map, which has not been updated in 20 years.

Environmental microbiologist Elizabeth Padilla Crespo is the first Puerto Rican to be included in a book by the prestigious organization.

As a young girl, when her interest in science began to blossom while studying in the urban center of Mayagüez, Elizabeth Padilla Crespo did never imagined that her name would occupy the same pages as those dedicated to the greatest in the field, such as the Dutchman Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, recognized as the "father of microbiology".
