Småfåglar som blåmes och talgoxe undviker att häcka, alltså bygga bon och lägga ägg, i stadsmiljöer där det finns många främmande träd. Fågelungar väger också mindre desto fler icke-inhemska träd som finns i närområdet. Det visar en ny långtidsstudie från Lund. Naturen i staden bidrar till flera viktiga ekosystemtjänster. Växter och inte minst träd är den levande delen av stadens ekosystem som vi

Naturbaserade lösningar ger stora möjligheter att ta itu med miljö- och samhällsutmaningar. De kan bidra till att mildra klimatförändringar och skydda biologisk mångfald. Men för att införa fler sådana lösningar i Norden krävs bättre styrning och finansiering, kompletterat med tydliga politiska prioriteringar. Det visar en ny forskningsrapport från Nordiska ministerrådet, där forskare från CEC har

Vid vårens ankomst tar humledrottningarna säsongens första vingslag och ger sig ut för att hitta nya boplatser. Men de flyger ut allt tidigare på året till följd av varmare klimat och ett förändrat jordbrukslandskap, visar ny forskning. – Risken är att vi förlorar ytterligare humlearter och får minskad pollinering av grödor och vilda växter, säger forskaren Maria Blasi Romero vid Centrum för miljö

Nu kommer FN:s klimatpanel IPCC med en syntesrapport som sammanfattar de senaste årens rapporter. Vi ställde fem frågor till Markku Rummukainen, Sveriges kontaktperson för IPCC och även professor i klimatologi vid Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap på Lunds universitet. Vad bidrar den nya syntesrapporten med? – Syntesrapporten ger ett relevant kunskapsunderlag i klimatfrågan för världens lände

När klimatomställningen accelererar, så riskerar frågor om ekosystemtjänster och biologisk mångfald att hamna i bakgrunden. Det är därför viktigt att hitta lösningar som ger synergier, betonar Henrik Smith, medlem i Klimatpolitiska rådet som på onsdagen lade fram en ny rapport till regeringen. Klimatpolitiska rådet har i uppgift att granska regeringens samlade politik med avseende på klimatmålen.

Världen förändras och vi har upplevt samhällsstörningar på grund av globala risker som pandemier och klimatförändringar. Miljöer eller institutioner som tagits för givna är plötsligt i fara, vilket tvingar oss att överväga nya risker som kräver en noggrann utveckling av begrepp och teorier samt nya metoder för bedömning.  Detta är temat för den kommande internationella konferensen SRA Europe 2023

What are opinions, what are facts and what are outright lies? The latest PISA assessment clearly shows that children and young adults have difficulties navigating the fast flow of information in society today. When anyone at all can make their voice heard it also becomes more difficult to recognise misleading information and fake news. Together, actors, performing arts teachers and researchers are

Nanotechnology and nanoscience offer a key to the development of materials as well as new knowledge about different material properties and limitations. Nanotechnology provides tools to make it possible to find solutions to significant societal challenges such as safe, clean and efficient energy or next generation electronics or medical technology.

A new study from Lund University in Sweden on how the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine affects human liver cells under experimental conditions, has been viewed more than 800,000 times in just over a week. The results have been widely discussed across social media – but the results have in many cases been misinterpreted. Two of the authors, Associate Professor Yang de Marinis (YDM) and Professor Ma

Vladimir Putin is driven by the old nationalistic theory about the western world’s conspiracy against Russia states Tova Höjdestrand, senior lecturer in Social Anthropology and a researcher whose areas of interest include Russia and nationalism. According to her, Russian conservatives have driven a radical conspiracy theory since the 1800s about how the west is trying to eliminate the east and tha

Any war crimes and accusations of genocide could be investigated by two different courts, both in The Hague. Jessica Almqvist, professor at the Department of Law, analyses what this involves. “There are not many who would dispute the unlawfulness of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine”, says Jessica Almqvist. Some days ago, Ukraine held Russia accountable for having violated the UN convention on genocide

The media in Russia and Ukraine live different lives. The media in Ukraine is quite free, whereas Russia lies at the bottom of international comparisons of media freedom, says Anamaria Dutceac Segesten, senior lecturer in European Studies at the Centre for Languages and Literature and associate professor of Strategic Communication. Her research has included the study of political communication in

The fighting at Chernobyl has caused an increase in radioactive radiation levels. Aleh Cherp, a professor at the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics (IIIEE), has studied energy security and Chernobyl. He thinks that the sanctions could lead to significant changes in the types of energy used in Europe. During the first days of the invasion, there was fighting close to the

In many ways, Swedish industrialisation began in the home. Women spun, wove and sewed clothes for payment in between their daily agricultural tasks, food preparation and childcare. But didn’t all industrial production gradually move into the factories? ‟No, it didn’t. That is a common misconception,” says economic historian Malin Nilsson, who is researching paid home industry work. ‟That is an ove

Researchers from Lund University in Sweden have studied whether severe perineal tears – known as sphincter injuries – are reduced if the primary midwife has assistance of a colleague during the final stage of labour.

An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has managed to study the flight behaviour of the mysterious black swift. They found, among other things, that the black swift rises to extreme heights during a full moon, seemingly catching insects in the moonlight. And, during a lunar eclipse, the birds simultaneously lost altitude. The results are published in Current Biology. The b

White dwarfs were once normal stars similar to the Sun but then collapsed after exhausting all their fuel. These interstellar remnants have historically been difficult to study. However, a recent study from Lund University in Sweden reveals new information about the movement patterns of these puzzling stars. White dwarfs have a radius of about 1 percent of the Sun’s. They have about the same mass,

Art and culture help us to understand society and ourselves. Lund University, with its artistic and cultural knowledge formation, has a key role to play in this. A new Cultural Council has now been formed to act both as a forum for ideas and a discussion partner in this work. “There are entirely new, fresh eyes that see our cultural richness, that see opportunities and connections associated with
