In recent decades, the Barents Sea has warmed more than twice as fast as the rest of the Arctic in winter, but the exact causes behind this amplified warming remain unclear. In this study, we quantify the wintertime Barents Sea warming (BSW, for near-surface air temperature) with an average linear trend of 1.74 °C decade-1 and an interdecadal change around 2003 based on a surface energy budget ana
It has been long recognised that dispersal is an important life-history trait that plays a key role in the demography and evolution of populations and species. This then suggests that dispersal play a central role in the response of populations and species to ever-increasing global change, including climate change, habitat loss and fragmentation, and biological invasions. During a symposium held a
Glacio-hydrological modeling is a key task for assessing the influence of snow and glaciers on water resources, essential for water resources management. The present study aims to enhance a conceptual hydrological model (namely Glacial Snow Melt (GSM)) by data-driven and swarm computing for enhancing the accuracy of rainfall runoff prediction. The proposed framework combines the conceptual hydrolo
The high-resolution Sentinel-2 data potentially enable the estimation of gross primary productivity (GPP) at finer spatial resolution by better capturing the spatial variation in a heterogeneous landscapes. This study investigates the potential of 10 m resolution reflectance from the Sentinel-2 Multispectral Instrument to improve the accuracy of GPP estimation across Nordic vegetation types, compa
The EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has had limited success in mitigating agriculture's environmental degradation. In this paper we simulate the impacts of the 2013 “greening” reform on biodiversity and ecosystem services in environmentally contrasting landscapes. We do this by integrating an agent-based model of structural change with spatial ecological production functions, and show that t
Climate warming has significantly advanced plant spring phenology in temperate and boreal biomes in the northern hemisphere. However, the response of subtropical forest phenology to climate change remains largely unclear. This study aimed to determine the spatiotemporal patterns of spring photosynthetic phenology in subtropical forests in China over the period 2002-2017 and explore its underlying
BackgroundThe outpatient therapeutic care program (OTP) of children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) has been decentralized to health post level in Ethiopia since 2008–2009. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding treatment outcomes and factors related to the duration of stay on treatment after its decentralization to health post level.ObjectiveThis study was aimed to assess treatment o
Background: Policy implications are seldom more than a paragraph or two at the end of empirical papers. The aim was therefore to explore social determinants of mental health across life through qualitative analysis of meta-synthesis of empirical publications from a 27-year school-leaver cohort. From the actionable empirical results, we suggest policies for primary prevention aimed at equitable men
Tropical forests provide essential ecosystem services, playing a critical role in climate regulation, biodiversity conservation, and regional hydrological cycles while also supporting livelihoods. However, they are increasingly threatened by deforestation and land-use change. Accurate land cover (LC) mapping is vital to monitor these changes, but mapping tropical forests is challenging due to comp
A new parameterization of sticking efficiency for aggregation of ice crystals onto snow and graupel is presented. This parameter plays a crucial role for the formation of ice precipitation and for electrification processes. The parameterization is intended to be used in atmospheric models simulating the aggregation of ice particles in glaciated clouds. It should improve the ability to forecast sno
Professorsinstallation Lunds universitet | aulan | 7 september 2012 kl 16.00 3 Förord Välkomna till den högtidliga professorsinstallationen! Ordet universitet kommer av det latinska universitas, som betyder ungefär helhet, det hela. Detta ord har samband med universus med betydelsen hel, allomfat- tande, egentligen vänd åt ett håll liksom med universum och universell. Universitas blev under högmed

The dynamics of atmospheric CO2 concentrations during and following the last deglaciation have mainly been ascribed to carbon release from and uptake in oceans, primarily in the Southern Ocean. But recent studies also point toward a terrestrial influence. We quantify dynamic changes to northern terrestrial carbon stocks from the Last Glacial Maximum (21,000 years) until present at millennial time
Over the past 50 years, nutrient discharge into freshwater ecosystems has significantly increased due to intensive fertilizer application in China. This has led to frequent environmental issues associated with nutrient enrichment, such as algal blooms, in a number of individual lakes. However, the linkages between terrestrial nutrient sources and algal bloom occurrence (BO) at large scales remains
Cardiovascular disease is the global number one causeof mortality and morbidity. The majority of cardio vascular diseases are caused by atherosclerosis, a lipid-driven, inflammatory disease of the middle- and large-sized arteries. The disease is characterized by the formation of atherosclerotic plaques throughout the arterial tree. Over the years, insights intohe pathogenesis of atherosclerosis ha

22 April 2026 13:15 to 14:30 | Seminar Chair: Catarina Kinnvall Abstract One of the most pressing global challenges is that our current border imaginaries are unsustainable. By the end of 2022, for reasons including conflict, globalisation, and climate change, over 281 million people currently live in a country other than their country of birth, either out of choice or necessity. Furthermore, bord
Health plays a crucial role for human development. Therefore, foreign aid is often directed to combat ill-health in the developing world. At the same time, globalization is a strong force that may aect health through various channels. But the two factors may also be interrelated. In this paper, I analyze the relationship between foreign aid, globalization, and health by estimating a xed eects pane
