Boreal peatlands store large amounts of carbon, but warmer and drier conditions caused by climate change may turn these ecosystems into carbon sources. Equipped with drones and thermal cameras Julia Kelly, who recently received her doctorate at the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC), has studied what factors affect the CO2 fluxes in peatland ecosystems. Boreal forests and peatlands

It is still unclear how much students and staff will be on campus in the autumn, but a gradual return is being planned. Discussions are also being held as to whether technical and administrative staff will be able to continue working from home after the pandemic. At the University, teaching staff and researchers have long been able to choose to work from home when that was most effective for them

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person to another. This can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group at Lund University in Sweden has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a

The sound of tawny owls makes young European robins eat less during their southward migration. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows how the threat from nocturnal predators affects the birds’ behaviour – and by extension their survival. When young robins embark on their first southward migration in the autumn, they make regular stops along the way to rest and replenish their energy rese

Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best, according to a comprehensive review study from Lund University in Sweden. The researchers looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region. The Arctic is said to be warming at

Ämnen i maten vi äter stressar de insulinproducerande betacellerna till döds. Albert Salehi forskar om hur betacellerna fungerar och tror på nya antidiabetiska mediciner som kan skydda betacellerna och förhindra typ 2 diabetes. Efter studier i farmakologi vid Linköpings universitet ville Albert Salehi fortsätta med att studera medicin.  Av en tillfällighet kom han i kontakt med professor Ingemar L

Tord Ajanki startade diabetesportalen.se. Efter drygt ett decennium lämnar han redaktörskapet och går i pension. - Det känns konstigt. Skönt på ett sätt, men svårt att avsluta något som man hållit på med så himla länge, säger han. Tord Ajanki utbildade sig först till sjuksköterska.- Vi ville rädda världen, jag och min fru!

We all know that when it burns, it smokes. But what do we really know about the contents of that smoke and how it is affected by different fire processes? Not only that, but how do these smoke particles affect the emergency personnel who are first on the scene? Researchers at NanoLund and LTH, in a unique experiment with the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB), have conducted measurements to

A forest management method different to those practised today would contribute to greater welfare and wellbeing for society in general, compared with current methods that mainly benefit the forestry industry. This has been shown in a new study by two researchers from Lund University in Sweden. There is an intensive debate at the moment about the best way to use the forest as a resource, not least

Ordinary table salt can be used to measure radiation from radioactive substances, provided that it is stored in the dark. This has been shown in a new thesis from Lund University in Sweden, where the method has been enhanced and tested on fallout from the nuclear disasters in Fukushima and Chernobyl. “Salt is readily available and very cheap, which gives it an advantage over the retrospective dosi
