Appar som ska hjälpa dig att hantera ångest kan i själva verket göra motsatsen. Sociologen Mikael Klintman varnar för att ständiga notiser och dramatiska budskap riskerar att öka stressen i stället för att minska den. I en artikel på The Conversation beskriver Mikael Klintman hur många appar använder känsloladdade budskap för att hålla dig engagerad. ”Din stressnivå ökar!” är ett typiskt exempel.

Genom att mäta flöden av växthusgaser i atmosfären och ekosystem kan forskare få ny kunskap om våra utsläpp, kolsänkor och hur naturen reagerar på ett varmare klimat. Över 500 forskare samlades i Lund för att diskutera hur dessa mätningar kan förbättra länders utsläppsdata och vår förståelse av framtidens ekosystem. Halten av koldioxid (CO2) i atmosfären är nu över 425 miljondelar (ppm). Det är be

I sin doktorsavhandling har Patryk Łakomiec undersökt hur nordliga torvmarker utbyter koldioxid och metan med atmosfären. Hans resultat visar att tinande permafrost förändrar hur dessa ekosystem omsätter kol och kan bidra till bättre uppskattningar av framtida utsläpp av växthusgaser. Vad fokuserade din forskning på?– Jag undersökte utbytet av växthusgaserna koldioxid och metan mellan nordliga tor
