Cards in a card catalogue. Photographer Johan Bävman. The University Library is releasing a new search system for digitised card catalogues. Are you looking for royal decrees, occasional poetry, school books, or older newspapers? Then the search system will help you find them. We will digitise more card catalogues and add them as soon as we are ready. You can now use the Digitised card catalogues

Increased tropical land use is disrupting the carbon cycle. Photo: Unsplash An international study led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden shows that the rapid increase in land use in the world's tropical areas is affecting the global carbon cycle more than was previously known. By studying data from a new satellite imaging system, the researchers also found that the biomass in tropical fo

The ability of global ecosystems to absorb carbon dioxide is regulated to a large extent by the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus. With lower plant access to these nutrients, greater volumes of carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere, instead of being absorbed by forests and other ecosystems. A new study has now charted the global patterns of this nitrogen and phosphorus limitation. Plants need wat

The forest and forest management are a hot topic in the climate debate, but there are still uncertainties in the mapping of the forest's function as a carbon sink or carbon source. In a new study, led by Patrik Vestin at the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, the researchers have made measurements of greenhouse gases at clear-cutting and found that there are large net emission
