Researchers have developed a model that can calculate individual countries' carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning using observations from space. The new results could be put to use within the Earth observation programme Copernicus, when satellites will be sent into space in the coming years. At the COP26 climate summit, the nations of the world agreed on a new document that for the fir

The Vombsjö basin in Skåne could become the world's first biosphere reserve integrating the cultural dimension. If the application to UNESCO is successful, the area could become an international forerunner as the first to work with culture in various forms of collaboration with citizens, academia, industry and the public sector. The Vombsjö basin in the municipalities of Eslöv, Lund and Sjöbo in S

In a new observational study, researchers at Lund University in Sweden looked at all children listed for heart transplants in the Nordic countries between 1986 and 2023. A total of 597 children were included in the study, 461 of whom received a transplant. The results show that survival rates have increased significantly over time despite the modest volumes in the region – a development that the r

Giving up research has never been an option for Ronald Kröger, professor in biology with a specialisation in fish lenses and dog noses. “I conduct research with all of my heart!” He is, however, at least as dependent on his brain – and it has really suffered.

Swapping concrete and asphalt for trees, ponds and green roofs is an example of how cities can be adapted to cope with heavy rain and climate change. But time is running out. For nature-based solutions to have a global impact, we need to act fast, according to researchers. A late summer’s day in August 2014, 100 mm of rain fell over the course of a 24-hour period in the Sofielund area in Malmö. Ba

Mosses and liverworts are common in forests, wetlands and on rocky surfaces – yet their chemical composition remains relatively little explored. A European research project is now investigating whether these small plants could become a source of new bioactive compounds for applications such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The BRYOMOLECULES project has now reached its halfway point. At Lund Unive
