The forest investigation recently submitted to the Swedish government gives suggestions on creating synergies between international and national commitments on biodiversity and a growing circular bioeconomy. A new report by CEC researchers concludes that forests and forestry also play multiple, key roles for climate change mitigation. The new report provides knowledge relevant for land users and p

2020 will be remembered as the year when the coronavirus paralysed the world. At the same time, the negative effect of climate change became increasingly apparent, and the pleas to listen to the scientist and the calls for action became even more urgent. What changes for the climate do researchers want to see in 2021? Researchers in climate and sustainability at Lund University list their hopes an

Researchers from Sweden, Germany, Brazil and the USA have developed a financial mechanism to support the protection of the world’s natural heritage. In a recent study, they developed three different design options for an intergovernmental biodiversity financing mechanism. Asking, what would happen if money was given to countries for providing protected areas, they simulated where the money would f

A diversity of different pollinators and other beneficial organisms in an agricultural landscape leads to an increase in crop production. This has been shown by a comprehensive international study that included researchers from Lund University. The study investigated two so-called ecosystem services that are of great significance to our food production. They concern the pollination of crops and na

Protecting, planting and restoring coastal ecosystems has attracted increased attention as a way of capturing and storing carbon in mangroves, tidal marshes and seagrass meadows. In her dissertation, Terese Thoni has investigated the importance of these ecosystems in relation to the political climate negotiations. Ten years ago, the concept of "blue carbon" was established to describe the carbon c

A forest management method different to those practised today would contribute to greater welfare and wellbeing for society in general, compared with current methods that mainly benefit the forestry industry. This has been shown in a new study by two researchers from Lund University in Sweden. There is an intensive debate at the moment about the best way to use the forest as a resource, not least

Many farmers are positive to measures beneficial for biodiversity and the environment. But bureaucracy and regulatory hassle often stand in the way, says Lovisa Nilsson in a new dissertation, while also calling for better financial incentives for the individual farmer to choose the best environmental measures. In a new doctoral dissertation, presented at the Centre for Environmental and Climate Re

How do you feel when you spend a large proportion of your waking hours noting facts about a planet in crisis? What is it like when every day you take a long, hard look at issues concerning global warming and the loss of biodiversity? Quite OK despite everything, is the answer when the question comes up during the ClimBEco graduate school’s winter meeting where climate psychologist Frida Hylander i

If you exhale on a clear day in the clean, cold air of the Arctic, you will not see your breath form the cloud we are used to seeing when the temperature drops. The reason for this is that the cloud cannot form without aerosol particles. Moa Sporre, researcher in nuclear physics at Lund University, focuses on how these particles affect cloud formation and how the clouds, in turn, affect the climat

Att munhälsan har stor betydelse för den allmänna hälsan är ett faktum som knappast längre ifrågasätts. Under flera år har ett samband mellan inflammationer i tandköttet (parodontit) och allmänsjukdomar som diabetes, hjärt-kärlsjukdom, reumatoid artrit, osteoporos, kognitiv nedsättning, obstruktiv lungsjukdom och vissa cancerformer rapporterats i vetenskapliga studier.

Äldre personers behov avgör vilka som får omsorg och i vilken omfattning. Det visar en rapport från SNAC-K Vårdsystem som är en nulägesbeskrivning av Stockholms äldreomsorg. Antalet hemtjänsttimmar har ökat något de senaste två åren, men sannolikheten att få ett beslut om vård- och omsorgsboende var lägre. Kartläggningen visar att cirka 15 procent av Stockholms invånare 65 år eller äldre har någon
