Sannolikheten att få bilen godkänd är högre i områden med många bilbesiktningsstationer än i områden med få. Det visar nationalekonomerna Osmis Habte (Konkurrensverket) och Jerker Holm (Ekonomihögskolan) i en vetenskaplig artikel publicerad i Review of Industrial Organization. Studien baseras på drygt 22 miljoner besiktningar mellan åren 2010 och 2015, och studerar hur antalet konkurrenter i en st

Japanska vaktlar som utsätts för värmeböljor som kycklingar är bättre rustade att hantera extremvärme när de blivit vuxna än vaktlar som växer upp i kyla. Men det finns ett tak för hur värmetoleranta de små hönsfåglarna kan bli. Det visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. I takt med att klimatet blir varmare och mer oförutsägbart måste fåglar och andra varmblodiga djur anpassa sig. Det sker exe
