Nature-based solutions have great potential in the Nordic countries
Implementing nature-based solutions requires better management and funding with clear political priorities. This is the conclusion of a new study by the Nordic Council of Ministers, in which researchers from Lund University participated. Nature-based solutions to climate change and the loss of biodiversity are increasingly highlighted, most recently during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27)

Can we limit global warming to 1.5 °C?
Efforts to combat climate change tend to focus on supply-side changes, such as shifting to renewable or cleaner energy. In a Special Issue in the Energy Efficiency Journal that follows the IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 ˚C, researchers argue that demand-side approaches can play a crucial role given the aspirational target outlined in the Paris Agreement. “We need to aggressively redu

Leadership Academy educates leaders in student organisations
The Leadership Academy has been offered at Lund University School of Economics and Management since 2007, and the program equips young leaders for the challenges that a leadership position in a student organisation often brings. The Leadership Academy at Lund University School of Economics and Management (LUSEM) is a leadership training program for students at Lund University, who are employed ful

Exploring the tomb of a wine-loving queen
Meret-Neith was perhaps the first female ruler of ancient Egypt and one of the most powerful women in the world during her lifetime some 5,000 years ago. Researcher Amber Hood is part of an international research team investigating the royal tomb in the desert outside Abydos. When LUM spoke to Amber Hood, a researcher at the Department of Geology, she was making final preparations for this year’s

In chase of the vikings
Archaeologist Greer Jarrett’s research focuses on reconstructing Viking sailing routes and cartography. To do so, he learnt to sail boats similar to those sailed by the Vikings and set off out to sea. He likens the sailors of that time to today’s extreme athletes. “I started a fairly theoretical doctoral thesis on reconstructing Viking sailing routes, but I wanted practical experience from a sailo

Polar bears for company
Ice sheets, snow and the ocean as far as the eye can see. No shipping vessels or people in sight, and only polar bears for company. The icebreaker Oden sails between Svalbard and Greenland, and this spring, doctoral student Lovisa Nilsson joined the ship to study the transition from winter to summer in the Arctic, and how soot affects the melting of sea ice. For six weeks, the spaces onboard Oden

Why we accept Santa’s traditional masculinity
Three research infrastructures named as University Platforms
The Vice-Chancellor has named three of the University’s large research infrastructures as University Platforms. The designation signals that these research infrastructures have high strategic significance for the entire University. The designations are based on a number of criteria, for example whether the research infrastructures have contributed to excellent research, offered broad availability

The risk of polarisation in the lecture hall
To ensure that everyone has their say and that no one feels attacked when debating loaded and sensitive topics, it is important to establish the ground rules from the outset. This applies to society at large and in the lecture hall. This is the opinion of Christer Mattsson, Associate Professor of Pedagogy and Director of the Segerstedt Institute at the University of Gothenburg, who has been invite

Achieve your training goals and get money back – it works!
Set a goal for your training for one to four months and pay in SEK 1,000. You get your money back if you achieve your goal. Crazy? Perhaps, but in a study by Professor of Economics Erik Wengström and his colleagues, the incentive proved to be quite effective compared with the control groups. “I’ve had a long-standing interest in how people behave in strategic situations and if you look at it from

44 years of teaching, the stats don’t lie
A former student had heard that our senior lecturer in statistics, Pierre Carbonnier was about to retire after this semester. Would we do a feature on him? The student remembered him fondly and added that his mother had also had Pierre as a teacher and thought he was pretty awesome. Few, if any statistics teachers can claim to have reached and inspired more students than Pierre Carbonnier, who has

Organic farms had doubled plant diversity – but only over time
It takes a long time, up to several decades, before the benefits of organic farming take full effect on land that was previously cultivated conventionally, a new study from Lund University suggests. After thirty years, the plant species richness around the cultivated crop had doubled on organic farms compared to conventional farms. It is well known that organic farming benefits biodiversity and ca

Successful experiment paves the way for new element
Scientists have found an alternative way to produce atoms of the superheavy element livermorium. The new method opens up the possibility of creating another element that could be the heaviest in the world so far: number 120. The search for new elements comes from the dream of finding a variant that is sufficiently stable to be long-lived and not prone to immediate decay. There is a theory in nucle

Doctoral student’s cat became a stamp
At work, Julia Weber’s focus is on insects and other pollinators, and their survival. At home, it is her cat Hera who has grabbed attention. When Postnord announced a competition to find cats to grace their new stamps, Julia Weber did as over 18,000 other cat owners and sent in a photo along with a short description of her feline friend. The jury could not resist the adventurous Hera, who was one
