Climate Action Transdisciplinarity in Education and Research

De siste tiårene har det blitt tydelig at mennesker på alle kontinenter er sårbare for ekstremvær og andre klimarelaterte påvirkninger. Verden må tilpasse seg raskt, men vi har selv sett at mange eksisterende klimatjenester i både Europa og Afrika mangler sosialt engasjement. Det er et presserend...

The effect of polyploidisation of Saxifraga oppositofolia on metabolic fluxes

One of the biggest global challenges in plant science´s is to determine how plants can increase stress tolerance (ST) without penalizing productivity. I hypothesise that exists a trade-off at leaf level between the maximal photosynthetic capacity (Amax) and ST and it can be explained by foliar st...
