Raising young in nuclear family groups – evolutionary bliss for some birds

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Bird social groups are more complex than previously thought. Now, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have established that bird species which raise their young in nuclear family groups develop greater social complexity compared with species that raise their young in groups without family ties. In a new study, re

Dogs can detect heat with noses, study finds

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An international research team from Sweden and Hungary have discovered an entirely new sense in dogs: using their cold, wet nose tips, dogs can sense the heat from other animals or a human. “It has taken a rather long time to discover this, given that dog and man have lived side by side for 15,000 years, and we have r

New study undermines ideas on the importance of the special quantum mechanical effects in photosynthesis

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The emergence and evolution of photosynthesis played a decisive role when life on earth began four billion years ago. In the past decade, some researchers have presented claims that quantum mechanical coherence plays an important role in this complex process. These ideas have now been critically evaluated in a study p

New study on the brain’s water channels offers hope to those with brain and spinal cord damage

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. An international research team has discovered a treatment that dramatically reduces swelling after brain and spinal cord damage. By using an already approved drug on rats, the brain’s water channels could be manipulated with positive results. The new study offers hope to the millions of people who are affected by brai

Rising temperatures affect wetlands and disrupt the water balance

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a future warmer climate, evaporation from the northern hemisphere’s wetlands will increase significantly more than previously thought. This is shown by an international study involving researchers from Lund University and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. The new discovery provides important knowledg

Bird feeding helps females more than males

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. A new study from Lund University in Sweden shows that female birds benefit more from extra food in the winter. If females receive additional food, they do not need to reduce their body temperature as much as they would have otherwise, and the chances of surviving cold nights increase. Birds possess an extreme ability

Breakthrough method for predicting solar storms

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Extensive power outages and satellite blackouts that affect air travel and the internet are some of the potential consequences of massive solar storms. These storms are believed to be caused by the release of enormous amounts of stored magnetic energy due to changes in the magnetic field of the sun’s outer atmosphere

How stars form in the smallest galaxies

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The question of how small, dwarf galaxies have sustained the formation of new stars over the course of the Universe has long confounded the world’s astronomers. An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has found that dormant small galaxies can slowly accumulate gas over many billions of years. W

Varför har vissa lättare att acceptera tortyr än andra?

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Auktoritetsbundna personer och sådana som ser sin egen grupp som socialt mer högtstående än andra är oftare benägna att acceptera tortyr. Det som förenar dem är inte i första hand driften att försvara den egna gruppen utan en stark tendens att avhumanisera människor som inte liknar dem själva. Detta visar en forskar
