One of the species has been named Drepanoistodus iommii - a tribute to Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi. About 470 million years ago, eel-like fish swam around in the Baltoscandian basin - a shallow sea that covered parts of present-day Scandi

The climate issue is one of the biggest global societal challenges of our time. Research on where the climate is heading is an important part of that work, both to monitor the impact of emission reductions agreed between countries worldwide in Paris 2015, but also to be better prepared for the elements of climate change we will not be able to avoid.
