This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. The ability of global ecosystems to absorb carbon dioxide is regulated to a large extent by the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus. With lower plant access to these nutrients, greater volumes of carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere, instead of being absorbed by forests and other ecosystems. A new study has now charte

The risk of exposure to covid-19 virus particles increases the closer you are to a patient, the higher virus levels of the patient, and if ventilation is inadequate. Measurements of viruses in the hospital air by researchers at Lund University provide new knowledge on how best to adapt care to reduce the risk of infection. The international guidelines that currently exist in healthcare need revisi

When humans are ill, we tend to be less active. This also applies to wild animals, but so far, it has not been known how long the reduced activity lasts or which activities are affected the most. New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that birds' activity decreases for up to three weeks when they become ill - something that could mean the difference between life and death. The researche

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Over the past 50 years, the water in lakes and watercourses has turned increasingly brown. The so-called browning has a negative impact on both drinking water production and ecosystems. If nothing is done, the water is likely to turn even browner – however, there is hope. Supported by a new study, researchers from Lun

The Central Administration’s aim is to offer the best possible support for the University’s operations. In order to do this, we need to continuously review the organisation and working methods so that optimum support is provided while balancing the budget. Based on this, a number of changes are being made. One example is that the major part of the support relating to contract education will be mov

In this thesis, an instrument using a broadband light beam for remote sensing of insects was developed. The thickness of a free-flying insect wing was measured at a distance of 85 m and with an accuracy of 2 nm. Insects play a key role in the ecosystem and are essential for biodiversity. Detecting and monitoring the millions of insects in our environment is a major challenge. The use of lasers and
