Primitive stoves and diesel engines produce soot particles, besides being bad for your health, have a negative effect on the climate. By affecting the atmosphere’s ability to form cloud droplets and ice particles, soot can dislodge the radiation balance.

Dealing with heat is about more than implementing technical solutions such as cold rooms, access to water, green areas and communication systems. Equally, if not more, important is to strengthen social networks, reduce income disparities and eliminate social vulnerability.

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. In a tumour, cancer cells grow and multiply in an uncontrolled manner. However, the cancer cells also need help from other, normal cells for the tumour to develop. This network of ‘helper cells’ is the focus of Kristian Pietras’ research.

Nordliga våtmarker har under tusentals år ackumulerat kol från atmosfären och därigenom haft en kylande effekt på klimatet. Men en ny studie visar att våtmarkernas kolupptag kan minska radikalt om klimatförändringarna leder till ökade temperaturer under sensommaren. Nettokoldioxidflödet i en våtmark styrs av balansen mellan upptag genom fotosyntes och emissioner via främst nedbrytning. Det har län

Förändringar i syresättning och klimat hade fundamental betydelse för marina miljöer och ekosystem under en av de mest omvälvande tiderna i livets utveckling. Det visar en ny studie där forskare analyserat jod och kalcium i kalkstensprover från Sverige, Estland och Ryssland. Det har länge spekulerats kring storskaliga samband mellan biodiversitet och syretillgång under livets tidiga utvecklingshis
