Archived tree cores reveal why boreal forests are getting starved for nitrogen
Despite decades of industrial deposition, nitrogen availability in the boreal forest is steadily declining. In a new study published in Nature, researchers from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences have found that atmospheric CO₂ is the main driver - using decades of unique, stored data. -
Spruce volume increases across Sweden – despite shrinking areas suited under future climate
Climate projections indicate that large parts of southern Sweden may become unsuitable for spruce by the end of this century. But the current management trends are moving in the opposite direction: spruce volume is increasing. -
Digital innovation hub boosts forest sector in northern Sweden
How can SLU’s goldmine of forest data be put to the best possible use? Through Digital Impact North, a collaborative network for digital innovation, powerful tools have ended up in the right hands at more than 100 public and private actors in northern Sweden – leading to award-winning products. -
He brings 70 years of forestry formulas into the digital age
SLU researcher Carl Vigren has digitized and compiled nearly all forestry formulas used in Sweden and Norway over the past 70 years.
