Forests destroyed by wildfires emit carbon long after the flames die

(By natascha [dot] kljun [at] cec [dot] lu [dot] se (Natascha Kljun and Julia Kelly) - published 6 August 2024)Even in Earth’s high northern-latitude forest, climate change is predicted to make wildfires more frequent and severe.Earth’s far north hosts the boreal forest, a vast green belt that stretches from North America to Siberia. The boreal forest is one of the world’s largest CO₂ sinks. Over

New project fills knowledge gaps on the climate impact of hydrogen emissions

Hydrogen is expected to play an important role in the transition to a climate-neutral society. Although hydrogen is not a greenhouse gas with a direct climate impact, there are large knowledge gaps about its indirect impacts on the climate and environment. The Horizon Europe-funded research project HYway aims to fill these gaps. We spoke to David Wårlind from Lund University who is leading one of

Reflections from ClimBEco autumn meeting 2024

Summer may be extending longer into the season, but we still have changed the name of our annual meetings in September to Autumn meetings. And this year autumn showed itself in full effect when ClimBEco students arrived by train from the north and the south into Helsingborg on 25-27 September and getting ready for this autumn meeting entitled “The Nature of the Urban: Sustainability challenges in

Sun’s activity influences natural climate change

A new study from Lund University has, for the first time, reconstructed solar activity during the last ice age. The study shows that the regional climate is influenced by the sun and offers opportunities to better predict future climate conditions in certain regions. Raimund Muscheler is co-author of the article and is an active researcher within MERGE and BECC. For the first time, a research team

Weather-Changing El Niño Oscillation Is at Least 250 Million Years Old

Modeling experiments show Pacific warm and cold patches persisted even when continents were in different places. Until now, it has been unclear how far back in time the climate phenomenon extends. But in a new study published in the scientific journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), an international team of scientists has established that El Niño and the Southern Oscillatio

Lakes worldwide are changing colour – possibly due to human impact

Over the last 40 years, the majority of the world’s lakes have changed colour, according to a new study. The research team analysed 32 million satellite observations from over 67,000 lakes. Major changes in the lake ecosystems are thought to be the cause. Lakes are critical components of Earth’s ecosystem. They provide habitats for aquatic and terrestrial species, support biodiversity and help mai

Consecutive El Niños are happening more often and the result is more devastating – new research

El Niño, a climate troublemaker, has long been one of the largest drivers of variability in the global climate. Every few years, the tropical eastern Pacific Ocean seesaws between warm (El Niño) and cold (La Niña) phases. This reshuffles rainfall patterns, unleashing floods, droughts and storms thousands of miles from the Pacific origin. The 1997-98 and 2015-16 El Niño events, for instance, brough

Charting Smarter Forest Futures: How ForestPaths is Rethinking Forest Policy in Europe

As Europe moves toward climate neutrality by 2050, forests are at the center of the transition. The ForestPaths project brings together researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders across the continent to co-design forest-based policy pathways that balance climate goals, biodiversity, and economic needs. A recent study*, supported by ForestPaths. analyzed over 182,000 forest plots across 11 countri

MERGE researchers met to develop the EC-Earth4 Climate Model ahead of 2028 IPCC Report

Earlier this spring, MERGE researchers gathered in Stockholm with their European colleagues to plan the final developments of the EC-Earth4 climate model that will underpin the next report of the IPCC, expected in 2028. The EC-Earth consortium, started in 2006, is a European consortium of national meteorological services and research institutes. From its original model it has been developed in thr
