More and more animals from southern climes carrying infectious micro-organisms are migrating north due to global warming. Researchers at the CLINF Nordic Centre of Excellence have developed new models to predict the spread of these infectious diseases
The long-term effects of climate change are well known. But what about next year, or in three years? A soon to end research project has developed a tool for exactly this purpose. The ARCPATH tool can become a game changer in both the private and public sector.
The overall CLINF objective is two-fold and will contribute to strategies for sustainable development, and to the development of surveillance programs for selected infectious disease.
The overall aim of ReiGN is to understand how climate change and other processes in the Arctic will affect reindeer husbandry in Fennoscandia and how reindeer husbandry can adapt to these drivers.
The ARCPATH project aims at improving Arctic climate predictions, increasing understanding regarding how changes in climate interact with many factors relating to local communities, and supplying this knowledge as potential pathways to action.
NordForsk is announcing a call for a pilot activity within Open Science. This is as a first step in the implementation of Action 5 in the Nordic eScience action Plan 2.0.
The initiative will be cross-disciplinary and will strengthen the knowledge base within Arctic research in a broad sense, thereby supporting integrated research efforts in health and medicine, humanities and social sciences, and natural sciences and technology.
