Scientific advice to decision makers requires transparent scientific assessments, in which communication of uncertainty is important in order to avoid over- or underestimating conclusions. In her dissertation ”Robust analysis of uncertainty in scientific assessments”, doctoral student Ivette Raices Cruz, who recently defended her dissertation at Center for Climate and Environmental Science (CEC),

Biologists have identified a single protein without which birds probably would not be able to orient themselves using the Earth’s magnetic field. The receptors that sense the Earth’s magnetic field are prob

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have used the MAX IV synchrotron in Lund – the strongest of its kind in the world - to produce images that predate the formation of toxic clumps of beta-amyloid, the protein believed to be at the root of Alzheimer’s disease. The unique images appear to contradict a previously u

Researchers in dermatology at Lund University in Sweden believe they have cracked the mystery of why we are able to quickly prevent an infection from spreading uncontrollably in the body during wounding. They believe this knowledge may be of clinical significance for developing new ways to counteract bacteria. “Perhap

A review of 50 countries' long term climate strategies to reach net zero emissions shows that countries calculate their residual emissions differently, and that current climate strategies include significant levels of residual emissions – making society dependent on unsustainable and unfeasible large-scale carbon removal technologies. In a new article, published in Nature Climate Change, LUCSUS re

Through analyzes of ice cores from Greenland and Antarctica, a research team led by Lund University in Sweden has found evidence of an extreme solar storm that occurred about 9,200 years ago. What puzzles the researchers is that the storm took place during one of the sun's more quiet phases – during which it is generally believed our planet is less exposed to such events. The sun is a prerequisite

Plant protection products are used in agriculture for more predictable and better harvests. Honeybees and other flower-visiting insects are exposed to residues of these substances when they collect pollen and nectar in the landscape. According to a new study from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and Lund University, pollen was found to contain high concentrations of many subst

Insects have difficulties handling the higher temperatures brought on by climate change, and might risk overheating. The ability to reproduce is also strongly affected by rising temperatures, even in northern areas of the world, according to a new study from Lund University in Sweden. Insects cannot regulate their own body temperature, which is instead strongly influenced by the temperature in the
