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

Some fungi are wasteful, while others recycle – and this can determine how much carbon is stored in a forest. Researchers at Lund University have now revealed how fungi manage their mycelium, the network that builds the structure of fungus. The results could provide new insights into the carbon cycle and climate. Researchers have investigated how fungi recycle their mycelium when they grow. Using
