Vad äter tumlare i svenska vatten? I en ny studie tar forskare från Lunds universitet hjälp av dna-teknik för att kartlägga den lilla valens mångfacetterade matvanor. Torskfiskar, sillfiskar och smörbultar toppar tumlarens meny, men den trubbnosiga tandvalen verkar inte särskilt kräsen. En ny studie visar att tumlare i svenska vatten äter uppemot 40 olika bytesarter – från centimeterstora bottenfi

Using high-resolution spectroscopy, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have succeeded in mapping the atmosphere of an exoplanet located 322 light years from Earth. The knowledge gained about the hot gas surrounding the Jupiter-like planet is important for the understanding of Earth-like planets. WASP-189b is a planet outside our own solar system, with a dayside temperature of 3,200 degrees C

A new study from Lund University shows that migratory birds fly most efficiently at moderate speeds – precisely the pace they use during their long journeys across continents. Now, at the end of summer, when thrush nightingales leave Sweden for Southern Africa, they don’t fly flat out. Instead, they cruise at a steady pace – and according to the study from Lund, that’s no coincidence.Migratory bir

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated.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
