Science Stories inviterer til fire videnskabelige saloner i Litteraturhuset, hvor bioinformatiker på Hvidovre Hospital, Peder Worning, vil tale med førende forskere under overskriften JORD, der belyses fra fire forskellige forskningsvinkler:

21/3: Jorden og solsystemets dannelseVed professor Anja C. Andersen, Niels Bohr Instituttet.

24/4: Det første liv. Ved professor Minik Rosing, Statens Naturhistoriske Museum.

15/5: Den Kambriske eksplosion, da dyrenes udvikling tog fart. Ved seniorforsker Emma Hammarlund, Lunds Universitet (in English)

6/6: Jord og hvad der lever deri. Ved lektor Flemming Ekelund, Biologisk Institut.

Ligesom ved traditionelle saloner vil værten også her sørge for intellektuel underholdning og inspirerende samtaler mellem forskeren og det deltagende publikum. 

Science Stories er et initiativ støttet af Novo Nordisk Fonden.

Billetten inkluderer ét glas vin pr. deltager. Dørene åbner kl. 19.00.

6/6)
 Jord og hvad der lever deri. Ved lektor Flemming Ekelund, Biologisk Institut

Jord er det materiale vi alle sammen lever på, det er både hvor vores afgrøder gror og hvor vores vilde natur udfolder sig, og endelig er det der, vi finder sporene af vores forfædre. Der findes mange former for jord: lerjord, muldjord, siltjord, sandjord, tørvejord og i alle disse jordtyper er der et mylder af liv, som er afgørende for de egenskaber jorden har. Hvis vi ikke passer på jorden, risikerer vi at udpine den og ødelægge den plantevækst, der holder på jorden. Så kan vi få sandfygning, der ødelægger landskabet.

Men hvad er jord egentlig for et materiale, og hvordan er det præget af de forskellige former for liv, der bor i den?

Earth and what lives in it with Flemming Ekelund

Soil is the material we all live on, it is both where our crops grow and where our wild nature unfolds, and finally it is where we find the tracks of our ancestors. There are many types of soil: clay soil, soil, silty soil, sandy soil, peat soil and in all these soil types there is a myriad of life that is crucial to the properties of the soil. If we do not take care of the soil, we risk depleting it and destroying the plant growth that keeps the soil in its place. If not, there is a risk of sand drift destroying the landscape. 

But what kind of material is soil? And, how can it be characterized by the different forms of life that live in it?

Flemming Ekelund is a biologist and an Associate Professor of the Terrestrial Ecology Section at the University of Copenhagen. His major interest is organisms; plants, animals as well as microorganisms, and how they affect the function of ecosystems.
