How do forests shape the climate — and how does a changing climate reshape our forests? What can science reveal about the forests of tomorrow? This mini-documentary dives into the world of climate modeling and forest ecosystems, offering insights into one of the most pressing environmental questions of our time. This short documentary explores the complex relationship between forests and climate t

Researchers at Lund University have produced the most detailed map of carbon emissions from Swedish forest fires to date. The results show that the largest emissions occur below the ground surface, in peat and organic soils. During the extremely hot summer of 2018, 324 forest fires were reported in Sweden. Using field measurements, models, and data from the Swedish Forest Agency, the Swedish Envir

Wildfires are becoming more frequent and are ravaging new parts of the world due to global warming. A study led by MERGE-members and researchers from the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers shows that this change is increasing the vulnerability of thousands of plants, animals and fungi. As global temperatures rise, the incidence of wildfires is increasing in many regions. This is mainly because

A lack of phosphorus in forest soil could lead to an acceleration of global climate change. This is shown by new research that has investigated the complex balance between carbon dioxide fertilisation, phosphorus deficiency and tree growth. The world’s forests are vital in the fight against climate change, as they absorb around a quarter of the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere. Trees

According to new research, northern peatlands are likely to play a greater role in future climate change than previously thought. The study shows that large areas of peatland could start emitting carbon dioxide as early as the mid-2000s. To date, peatlands have mainly been regarded as natural environments capable of mitigating climate change, thanks to the fact that peat stores enormous quantities
