In the present study, we aim at relating Forbes' remarkable paper on "The lake as a microcosm", published 125 years ago, to the present status of knowledge in our own research group. Hence, we relate the observations Forbes made to our own microcosm, Lake Krankesjon in southern Sweden, that has been intensively studied by several research groups for more than three decades. Specifically, we focus

Black Carbon Black Carbon – Formation, life cycle, impacts, co-benefits, policy, mitigation and response measures The Soot theme at the Pufendorf Institute This initiative develops a multi- and cross-disciplinary research program centered on soot from domestic and industrial combustion processes. Also called black carbon or elemental carbon, soot is a major driver of climate change and contributor

EU:s gemensamma jordbrukspolitik (CAP) är ett av de viktigaste styrmedlen för svenskt jordbruk, både när det gäller ekonomiska resurser och med avseende på hur stora arealer mark som påverkas. I den nuvarande CAP finns medel avsatta för miljöåtgärder såväl inom pelare 1 genom de så kallade förgröningsåtgärderna, som genom Landsbygdsprogrammet (pelare 2) via miljöstöden. Därmed skulle det kunna fin

Incubation temperature affects both growth and energy metabolism in birds after hatching. Changes in cellular mechanisms, including mitochondrial function, are a likely but unexplored explanation for these effects. To test whether temperature-dependent changes to mitochondria may link embryonic development to the post-natal phenotype, we incubated Japanese quail eggs at constant low (36.0°C), medi
Trust is a prerequisite for successful learning.From previous work we know that teachers use multiplestrategies to build trust with students – for example todemonstrate knowledge, skill and competence, or showinginterpersonal care and concern. We also know from studentsthat they trust teachers who ask, listen, and respond. But sincewe conducted those studies, Generative Artificial Intelligence(Gen
In a world where the challenges of climate change, social inequality, economic instability, and geopolitical tensions are ever-present, educators have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to prepare their students to navigate these complexities. However, educators are also juggling teaching and research, competing deadlines, shifting expectations, institutional paradigms, and limited time and s
Background: Current guidelines for the treatment of severe TBI recommend maintaining a cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) at 60–70 mmHg. In our institution, as well as others, an alternative algorithm—originally named the Lund concept—has been used. This treatment algorithm employs metoprolol and clonidine to limit CPP, accepting levels below 60 mmHg, with the aim of reducing cerebral edema. Previo
Globally, suicide is a leading cause of mortality among teenage children and adolescents. Alcohol and other substances of abuse may influence both the decision to commit suicide and the choice of method. However, only few studies focused on toxicological findings in child suicides. The aim of this study was to map postmortem toxicological findings in child suicides in Sweden. Data on age, sex, sui
Uppvärmning av byggnader är en betydande del av Sveriges energianvändning, vilket gör värmepumpar till en viktig lösning för att minska både energibehov och klimatpåverkan. Prestandan beror dock på byggnadens utformning, isoleringsnivå och lokalt klimat. Tillverkares COP och SCOP värden är baserade på standardiserade test förhållanden som skiljer från svenska klimatet, vilket kan leda till överskaHeating of buildings is a substantial part of Swedens energy use, making heat pumps an important solution for reducing both energy demand and climate impact. However performance depends on building design, insulation and local climate. Manufacturer COP and SCOP values are based on standardized test conditions that differ from Swedish climates which may lead to overestimated efficiency. This thesi
Background. Pain is common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and impairs quality of life. The King's PD pain questionnaire (KPPQ) is a standardized, reliable, and valid self-administered questionnaire for screening of pain in PD. We developed a linguistically validated German version of the KPPQ and applied it to a cohort with fluctuating PD. Methods. The interculturally adapted German translation was p
Objectives: IgA vasculitis (IgAV) in adults has been relatively under-investigated. Since outcomes are worse in other forms of vasculitis with increasing age, we investigated the outcomes of IgAV comparing younger adults (18-34), middle-aged adults (35-64) and elderly patients (≥64 years) focusing on kidney outcomes. Methods: We identified patients with renal biopsy-confirmed IgAV nephritis and co
The chemical forms of zinc in fly ash from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) crucially affect ash management, influencing both material recovery options and the risk of unwanted leaching into ecosystems. The zinc speciation was investigated in fly ash samples sourced from full-scale MSWI plants, including four grate fired boilers (GB) and one fluidized bed boiler (FB). We applied X-ray Abs
Infectious and parasitic agents (IPAs) and their associated diseases are major environmental stressors that jeopardize bee health, both alone and in interaction with other stressors. Their impact on pollinator communities can be assessed by studying multiple sentinel bee species. Here, we analysed the field exposure of three sentinel managed bee species (Apis mellifera, Bombus terrestris and Osmia
In recent decades, changes in vegetation phenology have exhibited a tight coupling with global warming. Mountain ecosystems are particularly susceptible to climate change, with high elevations warming faster than lower areas. The inconsistent rate of temperature change across elevations may lead to synchronization of phenological patterns, reducing the differences in phenology timing between high
El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events, whether in warm or cold phases, that persist for two or more consecutive years (multi-year), are relatively rare. Compared with single-year events, they create cumulative impacts and are linked to extended periods of extreme weather worldwide. Here we combine central Pacific fossil coral oxygen isotope reconstructions with a multimodel ensemble of transi
OBJECTIVE: To describe the distribution of HIV-1 variants in population-based national surveys conducted in sub-Saharan African countries between 2015 and 2022.DESIGN: Multicountry analysis.METHODS: Sixteen population-based national surveys, conducted between 2015 and 2022, were analyzed. Survey participants were eligible if HIV genotyping was successful. In most countries, people with HIV (PWH) w
Complexation of o-phthalate (1,2-benzenedicarboxylate) and competitive complexation of phosphate and phthalate at the goethite-water interface have been studied in 0.1 M Na(NO3) media at 298.2 K within the range 3.0 < -log [H+] < 8.5. Equilibrium measurements were performed as potentiometric titrations supplemented with spectrophotometric phosphate and phthalate analyses. The binary and ternary ch
In addition to fermentable sugars, dilute-acid hydrolysates of lignocellulose contain compounds that inhibit fermenting microorganisms, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Previous results show that phenolic compounds and furan aldehydes, and to some extent aliphatic acids, act as inhibitors during fermentation of dilute-acid hydrolysates of spruce. Treatment of lignocellulose hydrolysates with alka
