Objective
NRM holds scientifically important biological and geological collections of nine million specimens. At the Research Department, with a staff of 150 persons, basic and applied research is performed within Botany, Zoology, Paleontology and Geology, covering various topics related to biodiversity, anthropogenic impact on the environment, and the evolution of the Earth and life. The collections cover wide taxonomic, temporal and geographic ranges, especially high-latitude and tropical material, and incorporate several special and unique collections. The Environmental Specimen Bank with tissues and other biological material includes long series of homogeneous matrices from terrestrial, freshwater and marine ecosystems all over Sweden. Much of the key specimen information is available via internet enabling project pre-planning by IHP users and intensive time utilisation while at NRM.. NRM's high-quality infrastructure and excellent scientific and technical staff are well suited to support research on its collections and in related areas. Visiting scientists have access to a fully equipped molecular laboratory, new scanning and transmission electron microscopes, and a gas chromatography laboratory. Geological research facilities offer equipment for high precision analysis of isotopic and elemental compositions, and spectroscopic studies of minerals. The Nordic ion microprobe facility NORDSIM, based around a Cameca 1270 instrument for in-situ isotope microanalysis, is one of two such installations in Europe.
