In this exhibition\, we highlight current research from Lund University that explores this highly relevant subject through br ief insights into different scientific perspectives.Popular science poster s and filmAt research conferences\, scientists often present their latest findings using scientific posters. We’re now bringing this concept to Sk rylle – in a more accessible format. Several researchers have created po pular science posters that explore the relationship between forests and cl imate from different perspectives:Seeing More from Above: Satellites that help us map and monitor our forests.What Does the Future Hold for Our Fore sts? Predicting the consequences of climate change and forest management.W hen the Forest Burns: Wildfires in a changing climate.In the Mind of a For est Owner. Ideas about the forest\, from past to present.How Much Carbon D ioxide (CO₂) Does the Forest Absorb?Biodiversity Gives Forests Resilienc e in a Changing ClimateFilm: Klimatmodeller och Skogen (only in Swedish)In addition to the posters\, a short film is also shown\, produced in collab oration between Lund Municipality and the strategic research area MERGE* b ased at Lund University. The film offers insight into how researchers use climate models to study the forest’s role in the climate system – and how this research can contribute to important decisions made by\, among ot hers\, the UN’s climate panel\, the IPCC.Click through to Naturum Skryll e’s website for more information: Skrylle – motion och friluftslivOrga nisers and participating reserachersThe exhibition is a collaboration betw een Naturum Skrylle\, the municipality pf Lund and the strategic research areas BECC** and MERGE.

It engages about 250 r esearchers at Lund University\, University of Gothenburg\, Rossby Centre/S MHI\, Chalmers University of Technology and Royal Institute of Technology. Learn more about MERGE on the website:  \;MERGE Startpage | MERGE**BE CC (Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate) is a strate gic research area\, funded by the Swedish government\, that engages about 350 researchers at Lund University and the University of Gothenburg. BECC brings together scientists from the natural and social sciences with the a im to provide a scientific basis for the sustainable management of ecosyst ems and biodiversity.: \;www.becc.lu.se \;\n\nMore information abo ut the event: https://www.merge.lu.se/calendar/climate-and-forests-popular -science-exhibition-naturum-skrylle DTSTART;TZID=GMT:20251025T110000 DTEND;TZID=GMT:20260125T160000 LOCATION:Naturum Skrylle END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
