The city is the perfect place to study nature and how humans affect it, says Johan Kjellberg Jensen. In a new dissertation from the Centre for Environmental and Climate Science (CEC) at Lund University, he explores the interaction between plants, animals, and humans in the physical environment of cities.  Many of us associate 'nature' with something we go to the countryside to experience. But natu

Extreme differences in flight altitude between day and night may have been an undetected pattern amongst migratory birds – until now. The observation was made by researchers at Lund University in Sweden in a study of great snipes, where they also measured a new altitude record for migratory birds, irrespective of the species, reaching 8 700 metres. Great snipes are shorebirds that breed in Sweden,

A research group at Lund University has succeeded in creating a hydrogen-producing system using an iron complex as a light-absorbing dye. The new discovery could be an important piece of the puzzle for large-scale, environmentally friendly hydrogen production in the future. Hydrogen is a highly efficient energy carrier that can be used to transport, store and provide energy. The gas, which consist

Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Den insulinbildande betacellen är starkt beroende av kolesterol för att fungera normalt. Endast en blygsam sänkning av mängden kolesterol i cellens vägg halverar kapaciteten för insulinfrisättning, visar forskare vid LUDC. Detta är ett betydelsefullt fynd eftersom i stort sett alla diabetiker, oavsett kolesterolnivå
