By examining ancient walrus DNA, an international research team led by Lund University in Sweden have retraced the walrus ivory trade routes of the Viking Age. They found that Norse Vikings and Arctic Indigenous peoples were probably meeting and trading ivory in remote parts of High Arctic Greenland, several centuries before Christopher Columbus “discovered” North America. The study is now publish

Plastskatt, förbud mot engångsartiklar och alternativa material: att få bukt med plastnedskräpningen ligger högt på den politiska agendan. Men hur hanterar vi nanoplaster som kan tas upp av vattenlevande djur och människor? Forskare vid Lunds universitet undersöker riskerna med dessa ytterst små partiklar. – Nanoplaster reagerar med naturen på ett helt annat sätt än mikroplaster. Det beror på att

I våras föll domen i ett av förra årets medialt mest uppmärksammade brottsmål. Oväntade klottrare fick ovanligt hårda straff för att ha målat graffiti på tåg under flera års tid. Poliser och politiker beskrev gärningsmännen som maniska i sin skadegörelse och att de bara var ville förstöra så mycket som möjligt. En ny sociologisk studie vid Lunds universitet visar att graffitimålarna har drivkrafte
