To provide answers true to the context in which the Western church now finds itself, it is worth first investigating how the question has been answered in the past. In determining what to do today, it helps to understand how we got here in the first place. At the beginning of the fourth century, people wer
Surveys of students’ and teachers’ experiences at the Department of Geology, Lund University, have shown a need and wish among students to get, for example, more practice in using and understanding geological terminology and to understand the context of different features. Among teachers a common problem is (too) limited time per student to always give meaningful feedback and support. Learning mat
Sweden is not famous for its dune fields, and rightfully so; compared to most other countries of the world the Swedish dune fields are humble in size. Also, many of them are inactive and covered by vegetation. Due to this the dune fields of Sweden have been left largely unexplored the last decades. This is unfortunate since many of the dune fields in Sweden are valuable palaeo-environmental time c
South-central Sweden is home to a number of small, inactive inland dune fields formed on former glaciofluvialdeltas. A characteristic of these dune fields is the generally transverse shape of the dunes, in stark contrast to therest of Sweden where parabolic dunes are the most common type.One of these dune fields is Bonäsheden in the county of Dalarna. It is the largest continuous dune field in Swe
Aeolian deposits in Sweden and Norway are poorly explored as environmental records. Many, mainly small, occurrences of windblown sand have been mapped, but few have been investigated in any detail and even fewer have been absolutely dated. Here we present results from a project aiming to determine the timing and magnitude of wind activity in inland settings in southern Sweden and Norway and to bet
