The bigger role of trees in global carbon cycling

Researcher Patrik Vestin writes in a " news and views " article in Nature that the woody surfaces of trees may take up methane on a scale of global importance. This is a missing piece in the estimation of global methane budgets, and hence in climate models. Future research should involve not just stems and trunks, but also leaves and small branches to get a fuller picture. Forests play a crucial r

Towards a better understanding of what leads to digital inequalities in old age

SWEAH affiliated Arianna Poli, at Linköping University, is defending her dissertation entitled "A Divided Old Age through Research on Digital Technologies". Having access to and being able to use digital technologies is crucial for participating in today digital societies, but the access and the use of digital technologies are unequally distributed among older people.  Groups of older people in lo

Old air samples hint at effects of climate change

Through the DNA analysis of old air samples collected by the Swedish Armed Forces, researchers at Lund University in Sweden can show that spore dispersal of northern mosses has shifted over the past 35 years. It now starts several weeks earlier, revealing how quickly nature’s calendar can reset in line with a warmer climate. When the Swedish military began collecting air samples in the 1960s to re

Blood-forming stem cells are remarkably flexible during fetal development

Researchers at Lund University show that blood stem cells during early development are considerably more flexible than corresponding cells in adults. The findings provide new knowledge about how the immune system develops and may also contribute to understanding why certain forms of childhood leukemia are thought to originate before birth. All blood and immune cells are formed from blood stem cell

How stars form in the smallest galaxies

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The question of how small, dwarf galaxies have sustained the formation of new stars over the course of the Universe has long confounded the world’s astronomers. An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has found that dormant small galaxies can slowly accumulate gas over many billions of years. W

Titanium and mysterious jet streams discovered on extreme exoplanet

Using the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope in Chile, astronomers have made detailed observations of the mysterious exoplanet WASP-121 b. The discoveries of the element titanium and jet streams challenge our understanding of the winds and chemistry found on ultrahot planets. Just over 5,800 exoplanets – planets that orbit stars other than our Sun – have been discovered since the

Organic farms had doubled plant diversity – but only over time

It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca
