Chicks also weigh less the more non-native trees there are in the vicinity of the nest. This is shown in a long-term study from Lund University in Sweden. City trees contribute to several important ecosystem services such as lowering local temperature and purifying air but are a

Nu har ett forskarteam från Lunds universitet upptäckt tre genvarianter som ökar risken för benpropp med upp till 180 procent. Det är skillnad mellan arteriella och
