LTP Climate, environment and environmentally friendly energy

LTP OBJECTIVES

Climate and loss of natural diversity

If we are to secure a sustainable future, new climate and environmental friends must be developed. We need to develop more knowledge about nature-based trails and measures that are good for both the climate and nature. As one of the leading energy nations in the world, Norway has a special responsibility in this field. Read more about our activities in this area.

AGROECOL2 Empowering Young Farmers to Coordinate Agrifood Transformations through Engaged RIs and Agroecological LLs

EMPOWERALL etablerer fire ungdomsledede «agroøkologiske levende laboratorier» (Agroecological Living Labs) på tvers av Europa – altså reelle steder der unge bønder samarbeider med forskere, rådgivere, sivilsamfunn og offentlige myndigheter for å finne ut hvordan bærekraftig jordbruk faktisk ser u...

Awarded: NOK 4.6 mill.

Project Period: 2026-2029

Location: Akershus

MSCA-Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA)

Using seed functional traits to understand and predict alpine plant responses to global climate change

To improve predictions of how plants may persist or disappear from ecosystems, we urgently need improved understanding of how climate change affects a critical and vulnerable plant life-history stage and transition–seeds and seed recruitment. Seed ecology is a growing discipline, yet it lacks som...

Proglacial lake impacts on the export of Organic carbon and Nutrients to Downstream ecosystems

Glacier retreat is accelerating in response to climate warming, leading to an increase in the number and total area of proglacial lakes globally. Proglacial lakes have the potential to modulate glacial runoff via sediment immobilization and in-lake biogeochemical cycling, with implications for th...

WP2 – Energy System modelling and Socioeconomic models

This work package will focus on addressing the complementarity aspects of using bottom-up technology-rich energy system modelling approaches in tandem with macro-economic analysis with CGE modelling. Namely, we will utilize results and data from the IFE-TIMES-Norway model, using socio-technical t...

Winter-is-coming – But do soil microorganisms know and prepare accordingly?

Mikroorganismer—usynlige for det blotte øye—holder i det stille jordens livsopprettholdende system i gang. Blant de mange såkalte økosystemtjenestene de leverer, produserer de oksygenet vi puster inn og resirkulerer næringsstoffer som gjør at planter kan vokse. Dessuten er mikroorganismer ikke så...
