This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Arctic climate change research relies on field measurements and samples that are too scarce, and patchy at best. The researchers in the BECC action group looked at thousands of scientific studies, and found that around 30% of cited studies were clustered around only two research stations in the vast Arctic region.

The national 7T MR facility is one of about 100 similar ultra-high field MR scanners for human use in the world. The facility recently underwent a major state-of-the-art upgrade that will ensure that the facility remains at the forefront of ultra-high field MR research, enabling ground-breaking studies across a wide range of fields. Thus, as the national 7T MR facility celebrates its 10-year anniv
Can dragonflies migrate thousands of miles across the Indian Ocean, from India via the Maldives to Africa, and back again? An international research team led by Lund University in Sweden has used models and simulations to find out if the hypothesis could be true. In 2009, marine biologist Charles Anderson put forward a hypothesis after observing globe skimmer dragonflies (Pantala flavescens) on th
