Systematic sustainability work

Lund University strives to be a sustainable organisation and a driving force for sustainable development. As support in this work, there is an environmental management system that provides a systematic way to prioritise, implement and continuously improve our sustainability work. According to the Ordinance on Environmental Management at Public Authorities (SFS 2009:907) we are obligated to have an

Packaging innovation is a strategic and valuable tool yet underexplored in business and extended value chains. Demographic changes, as population aging, and the increase of healthcare costs pose challenges and opportunities for the pharmaceutical industry, where packaging innovation offers new opportunities to provide patients with better solutions. This study employs a multi-stakeholder perspecti

New interactive information and communication technology (ICT) has opened up new possibilities in the field of distance education. The traditional distance education organisations are challenged by conventional universities who have developed into dual mode institutions using interactive ICT. This challenge from conventional universities may also involve a conceptual challenge - from distribution

Methanol is the second most abundant volatile organic compound in the troposphere and plays a significant role in atmospheric chemistry. While there is consensus about the dominant role of living plants as the major source and the reaction with OH as the major sink of methanol, global methanol budgets diverge considerably in terms of source/sink estimates, reflecting uncertainties in the approache

The aim was to study possible associations between smoking habits and self-reported clinical features in a large population-based cohort of patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). All subjects with PsA who had sought health care in the period 2003-2007 were identified using a regional health-care register. In 2009, all those identified who were 18 years of age or more (n = 2,003) were sent a ques

Popular Abstract in Danish Omkring halvdelen af den globale kulstof mængde som findes i jorden, er lagret i de arktiske jorde. Arktiske jorde har været anset for at være vigtige kulstof reservoirs de sidste 10.000 år, hvor der bliver optaget mere kulstof end der frigives. Dette skyldes blandt andet den langsomme omsætning af organiske materiale på grund af de kolde forhold, men også de store mængdArctic ecosystems hold massive amounts of the global carbon in their soils and are of great importance for the global terrestrial exchange of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. The arctic region has in general been acting as a C sink for the past 10000 years, however with climate change the C balance in some areas is shifting towards becoming a C source. Herbivory are an important part of many ec

Wetting and drying climate sequences and anthropogenic vegetation changes can have profound effects on the hydrological cycle and sustainability of terrestrial ecosystems. China contains many different climates, from humid to extremely arid and it contributes to the global mitigation strategies of climate change. China is also an important contributor to global greening and carbon sequestration. I

Will the appeal of the Western-led global democratic order triumph over China’s pragmatic approach to infrastructure investments? In this op-ed, PhD student Tabita Rosendal Ebbesen, Lund University, explores the possibility that the two new infrastructure investment initiatives proposed by the US and EU might pose a challenge to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

Introduction: Snus is suggested as a risk factor for cardiometabolic disease, but little is known about health effects in young populations, particularly in women. We aimed to investigate associations between snus and cardiometabolic health markers among young men and women. Aims and Methods: This study was conducted within the BAMSE (Swedish acronym for Children, Allergy, Environment, Stockholm,

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Prostate cancer (PC) and dementia may commonly co-occur; yet, prior evidence for bidirectional associations is inconsistent. This study aims to determine the associations between PC and dementia in large population-based studies, which may further inform clinical care. METHODS: To assess the dementia risk in men with PC, a national cohort study was conducted in 178 746 me

Context. The ESA space astrometry mission Gaia, planned to be launched in 2013, has been designed to make angular measurements on a global scale with micro-arcsecond accuracy. A key component of the data processing for Gaia is the astrometric core solution, which must implement an efficient and accurate numerical algorithm to solve the resulting, extremely large least-squares problem. The Astromet

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Kunskap om mängden kol som växter tar upp i från atmosfären är i dag en viktig frågeställning inom naturvetenskaplig forskning. Resultaten av sådan forskning kan bl.a. användas vid internationella konventioner som t.ex. Kyoto avtalet. I denna studie har jord prover från semi-arida agro-ekosystem i Sudan statistiskt analyserats för att se om skillnaden i organisk

Background: The aims of this study were to investigate initial characteristics and improvement after 18 months in patients with comorbidity of severe mental illness and substance dependence. These patients took part in a multicentre study aimed at improving co-operation between psychiatric health care units and social services. Methods: A total of 358 patients, 66% men, were included. There were f

Previous positron emission tomography (PET) studies have quantified filamentous tau pathology using regions-of-interest (ROIs) based on observations of the topographical distribution of neurofibrillary tangles in post-mortem tissue. However, such approaches may not take full advantage of information contained in neuroimaging data. The present study employs an unsupervised data-driven method to ide

This study charts the possibilities of recycled plastic and its use as an alternative building material for low-income housing in Colombia. The building materials in the study have been compared with respect to their physical properties, the cost and how they affect the indoor climate in each building. Colombia is a country that has been subjected to civil war for many years, which has contribute

Credit activity is essential for financial institutions, acting as the primary means banks deploy resources and generate revenue. As a key indicator of financial distress, corporate default has severe repercussions on investors, creditors, regulators, and policymakers. Credit risk embodies the uncertainty banks confront prior to lending, accounting for the partial or complete non-recovery of loan
