Strong ties between forest owners and their land does not automatically translate into greater efforts to promote biodiversity. The current system of voluntary protection also risks overlooking the most valuable natural areas, according to a new doctoral thesis by Hanna Ekström Pigot. The study is based on interviews with 23 forest owners in southern Sweden. Many express a clear and emotional conn

The climate control used by termites in their mounds could inspire tomorrow’s climate-smart buildings. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that future buildings inspired by the termites could achieve the same effect as traditional climate control, but with greater energy efficiency and without its carbon dioxide footprint. Termite mounds have a sophisticated ventilation system that e

Ett forskarteam med forskare från Lund har rekonstruerat historiska temperaturer i Arktis, som spänner över tusen år. En ny teknik och en nyligen publicerad databas med proxydata har använts i kartläggningen, som är ett viktigt bidrag för att förstå temperaturförändringar nu och i framtiden. Arktis är det område i världen som värms upp snabbast, genom så kallad arktisk förstärkning. En ny forsknin

Currently, a lot is known about which genes are responsible for our individual blood groups, however not much is understood about how and why the levels of the blood group molecules differ between one person and another. And this can be important for blood transfusion safety. Now a research group in Lund has developed a toolbox that finds the answer – and in doing so, has solved a 50-year-old myst
