This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a large hall on Margaretavägen in Lund, next to LDC, the air is full of the hum of computers. The supercomputers Alarik, Erik and Platon – the most powerful in southern Sweden – are busy computing complex problems that Lund University researchers are not able to solve on their own. At the moment, a simulation of a

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. For the first time, a research team led by Lund University in Sweden has mapped out exactly what happens when spruce bark beetles use their sense of smell to find trees and partners to reproduce with. The hope is that the results will lead to better pest control and protection of the forest in the future. The Eurasian

When the late summer sun falls over Ireland’s Wicklow Mountains, the slopes turn purple with blooming heather. Honeybees are moved to the heathlands for the sought-after heather honey, but their presence affects wild bumblebees. An Irish-Swedish research team has shown in a new study that wild bumblebees change their behaviour and are smaller in size when the number of beehives increases. The rese

Africa, despite its large area and thus large impact on the global carbon cycle, is relatively unexplored with respect to ecosystem functions and impact on climate change. Now one of few in situ studies over a long period of time, 2010-2022, shows that the Sahel area has lost a lot of its power as a carbon sink during the time period examined. Africa, despite its large area and thus large impact o

Magnetkameratekniken har gjort det möjligt för forskare och kliniker att se hur vi människor ser ut på insidan – i alla kroppsdelar som innehåller vatten – utan att behöva använda kirurgi. Men för några år sedan höll nya EU-regler på att sätta käppar i hjulet. De har arbetat tillsammans sedan 1980-talet, röntgensjuksköterskan Titti Owman och forskaren Pia Sundgren. – På den tiden använde vi oss bl
