Teori om hur samhället ska hantera miljöfrågor måste fördjupas. Annars riskerar hållbarhetsforskningen att leda till att komplexa ekosystem blir varor på en nyliberal global marknad eller att fattiga människor förlorar rätten till och makten över lokala naturresurser. Om resiliensteori används på ett sätt som förenklar sambanden mellan natur och samhälle, vilket är föremål för forskarnas studie, k

Har du någon gång badat i en sjö och kommit upp ur vattnet täckt av ett tunt lager slem som kliar? Då kan du ha drabbats av gubbslem – en sötvattensalg som tidigare bara fanns i skogstjärnar och sumpträsk, men som nu invaderar nya sjöar i norra Europa. I en färsk avhandling från Lunds universitet har Ingrid Sassenhagen undersökt faktorer som påverkar spridningen av gubbslem. Studien visar att alge

To protect the University ag
