Growing forests can limit climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their biomass as they grow. How much carbon a forest stores varies between tree species, the forests age, weather conditions and how the forest is managed. Young growing forests store a lot of carbon, as the forest gets older the carbon sequestration capacity decreases. When trees are f

With the help of mirrors, placed only a few hundred nanometers apart, a research team has managed to use light more efficiently. The finding could eventually be useful for controlling solar energy conversion during photosynthesis, or other reactions driven by light. For example, one application could be converting carbon dioxide into fuel. The sunlight that hits Earth for one hour is almost equiva

Anders Persson, Senior Lecturer at the Department of Biology, will receive SEK 2.8 million from the Kamprad Family Foundation. The grant will support research on artificial reefs aimed at helping the endangered Baltic cod.Congratulations on the grant, Anders – how does it feel?– It’s amazing! We’re a small group that has been working for a long time to develop methods for studying reefs, mostly wi

What keeps spaghetti from disintegrating in boiling water? The answer, according to new research, is gluten. The amount of salt in the water also has an unexpected significance. Using advanced techniques, researchers examined the internal structure of regular and gluten-free spaghetti – straight off the shelf. The results show that gluten has a crucial role in protecting the structure of pasta dur

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Volcano or meteorite? Over the past 100 years, two different theories have been put forward to explain the formation of Lake Mien. However, researchers from Lund University can now definitively state in a new study that the lake in Småland was formed by a gigantic celestial object. It was long thought that the circula

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. They are called foraminifera and have lived in the world’s oceans for 545 million years. A research team has established in a new study that some species of this protist will probably cope swimmingly even in a climate-impacted future. This is due to their ability to respire nitrate. One consequence of climate change i

For the first time, researchers have been able to prove that city lights limit the ability of nocturnal animals to navigate by natural light in the night sky. Instead, they are forced to use streetlamps, neon light or floodlights to orient themselves. The findings are published in Current Biology. Some animals, including migratory birds, seals and moths, use light from the moon, stars and Milky Wa

By capturing a weak signal from outer space, a research team was able to study the atmosphere of an exoplanet 300 light-years from Earth. The study shows that the planet’s gas envelope contains a specific isotope of carbon, which indicates that it was formed a long way from its host star. Exoplanets are planets located in solar systems other than our own. The first confirmed discovery was made in

In a pioneering nano experiment, a research team in Lund has succeeded in constructing a new and very efficient microwave photon detector. The discovery could accelerate the development of future quantum computers. Microwaves are a collective term for electromagnetic radiation in the higher radio frequency bands; they can be used for everything from warming up fish dishes to searching for extrater
