SWEAH's travelers left an almost 30-degree Sweden and arrived in typical September rain and Stirling half as hot. But then the sun came and a packed program with, among other things, lectures and workshops on quantitative and qualitative methods, and a competition where the best presentations were crowned. The postdoctoral students competed in their own class, where Thomas Lowe from the Netherland

The income and education levels of a child’s environment determine their relationship to nature, not whether they live in a city or the countryside. This is the finding of a new study conducted by researchers and BECC-members at Lund University, Sweden. The results run counter to the assumption that growing up in the countryside automatically increases our connection to nature, and yet the study a

CEC director Henrik Smith, is one of the researchers behind a debate article in Dagens Nyheter on September 8.

Hydrogen is expected to play an important role in the transition to a climate-neutral society. Although hydrogen is not a greenhouse gas with a direct climate impact, there are large knowledge gaps about its indirect impacts on the climate and environment. The Horizon Europe-funded research project HYway aims to fill these gaps. We spoke to David Wårlind from Lund University who is leading one of

Long-term effective methods are needed to curb the negative effects of coastal erosion. Within the LIFE Coast Adapt project, researchers from Lund University, together with officials from Region Skåne and several coastal municipalities in Skåne, have tested various nature-based methods to contribute to a practice in the field. The project has now come to an end with promising results. In the LIFE

To create a functional urban environment for people, the environment and biodiversity, cities need to make careful considerations. Urban densification can be positive, for example in terms of reducing car traffic and providing better services to more people. At the same time, it can be at the expense of green spaces and human health. Johanna Alkan Olsson is a senior lecturer at CEC and has been re
