Researchers at Lund University have produced the most detailed map of carbon emissions from Swedish forest fires to date. The results show that the largest emissions occur below the ground surface, in peat and organic soils. During the extremely hot summer of 2018, 324 forest fires were reported in Sweden. Using field measurements, models, and data from the Swedish Forest Agency, the Swedish Envir

A recent study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, challenged the common assumption that an ACL injury cannot heal. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), is the main stabilising ligament in the knee. Rupture of the ACL is most common in young, active individuals, and can have devastating impacts. The most common treatment is ACL reconstruction, which is based on the assumption tha
