Deforestation in Amazon basin could disrupt the distant rainforest by remote climate connection

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The ongoing deforestation around the fringes of the Amazon may have serious consequences for the untouched deeper parts of the rainforest. A new research study shows that it is not only the climate that is adversely affected by deforestation. In fact, the very stability of the ecosystem in the entire Amazon region is

A new eye on the universe opens in Chile

A new instrument on the four-metre VISTA telescope at the European Southern Observatory in Chile has recently captured its first starlight. This marks the beginning of a new era in astronomy, as researchers prepare to map the sky in unprecedented detail. The instrument does not take ordinary images of the night sky. Instead, 4MOST – the Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope – collects spectra, that

“It’s no harder for researchers to combine career and family”

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. “Yes, academic life is uncertain and competitive. However, that’s the case even for those who don’t have families. I don’t think it’s any harder to have children if you are a researcher than in any other line of work.” Olga Göransson is also a member in the network WINGS (Women in Great Sciences). So says Olga Göranss

Botanical garden temporarily flourishing

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The presence of the glorious tulips, which have captivated so many of the visitors to the garden and spread to the Instagram accounts of the residents of Lund, is in no way guaranteed. Neither are the coming summer flowers currently being planted in the flower beds, which last year were left bare and brown. “We depend

Researchers: "Leadership is overestimated; rely more on employees"

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Leadership is merely one among an arsenal of tools at the disposal of managers and employees to create a well-functioning group or organisation, according to organisational researchers Mats Alvesson, Stefan Sveningsson and Martin Blom at the School of Economics and Management. Are you someone who prefers to work in th

Entire genome of common forest pest now revealed

Researchers have successfully mapped the entire genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle. The breakthrough paves the way for new research into bark beetles and better prospects for effective pest control of a species that can destroy more than 100 million cubic metres of spruce forest during a single year in Europe and Asia. Mapping the genome of the Eurasian spruce bark beetle enables a far deep

When “Challenges” become “Missions” – what will be LU’s share of the pie?

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The next EU framework programme focuses on “missions” rather than the previous “societal challenges”. This in itself will be a challenge for a university focused on basic research such as LU and will require new working methods among funding bodies and researchers applying for grants, according to research liaison off
