Several inaccuracies in historical CPIs in popular online databases have been discovered, according to new research by Jonas Ljungberg at Lund University, published in Cliometrica. This can have major consequences for both research and the decisions politicians make regarding economic policy. Jonas Ljungberg needed access to different European countries' consumer price indices (CPIs) for the last

What works well and what doesn’t in your workplace? In 2024, we will have the chance to express views on issues related to the work environment by playing the OSA game. So far, the OSA game has helped us identify the need for support for managers and also the most common types of work environment problems in the organization. This has allowed us to prioritise areas where we need to focus our effor

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Theories were introduced as far back as the 1960s about the possible existence of superheavy elements. Their most long-lived nuclei could give rise to a so-called “island of stability” far beyond the element uranium. However, a new study, led by nuclear physicists at Lund University, shows that a 50-year-old nuclear p

Climate research in the Arctic is being hit hard as collaboration with Russian researchers is put on ice. “It’s impossible to get an overall picture of the Arctic without looking at Russia. If this becomes permanent, we will be thrown back 20 years,” says Margareta Johansson, who leads the unique research project INTERACT, which incorporates researchers from all eight Arctic countries.

Teaching is to be as highly valued as research when it comes to appointments and promotions. Despite this ambition, it has rarely worked that way in practice. A recently completed project provides a new framework which will help faculty managements, as well as individual teaching staff members, to evaluate and develop educational qualifications. In the ‘Pedagogisk Meritering’ project, which concer

How much environmental impact does your hair removal have? With the method LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) it’s possible to find out. Sustainability researchers from Lund, United Kingdom and Italy put the shaving habits to a test when they tried to find answer to which method has the least environmental impact. That is, if you don't consider the option of not removing it at all. Researchers Tullia Jac

Farming practices that result in higher levels of carbon in agricultural soils could protect both wheat and barley harvests in a future changed climate. This is what emerges from a new study from Lund University in Sweden. However, the practices required are more costly for farmers in the short term, according to the researchers who argue for targeted environmental payments. Ongoing climate change
