In the last few days there has been an intense debate in the media about the Art Academy, which has been described as threatened with shut-down due to an eviction notice from the city of Malmö on its current premises. Lund University has been warned that the city needs the building as soon as possible, preferably within a year, with the aim of using it as a primary and lower secondary school. The

Short-haired bumblebee on Cowslip. Photo: Anna Persson When the snow is gone, it does not take too long before a familiar spring sound reappears - the bumblebee buzz. Since bumblebees are well adapted to cold climates, many of the species are negatively affected by a warmer climate. Researchers at Lund University now ask for the public's help in reporting the first bumblebee queens of the spring,

Buff-tailed bumblebee. Photo: Kennet Ruona. Many species of bee are threatened by global warming, but not all. The buff-tailed bumblebee is the world’s most common bee and will likely remain that way, as researchers from Lund University have discovered that this species benefits from a warmer climate. Through research into buff-tailed bumblebees collected by amateurs and researchers over a period

The forest has many benefits. What climate benefit you get by leaving the forest for storing carbon, or by extracting biomass that can replace fossil raw materials, largely depends on the time horizon. Photo: kn1/IStockphoto. The forest is currently at the centre of an intense debate. It concerns, in simplified terms, which climate benefits the forest can provide, either by sequestering carbon in

No similar tool has previously been used in the area. The researchers also show that pollen seasons may be 60 per cent more severe in the future due t

By changing from action-based to result-based environmental payment, farmers are financially encouraged to implement conservation measures, such as buffer strips and organic farming, where they are most beneficial for the environment and not, as today, where they least disrupt the production. This according to William Sidemo Holm, who recently defended his diss

PhD student Sofia Blomqvist and her dog Ylle look for bumblebees and other pollinating insects. This summer, Lund University doctoral student Sofia Blomqvist will be investigating how pollinating insects such as bumblebees and solitary bees are faring in flower-rich roadside habitats. However, there is one problem: bumblebee nests are very difficult to find. Now she hopes to be able to train Ylle
