Over three days in October, 75 sixth graders from Hendricks Elementary visited the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research and took a deep dive into the world of dendrochronology, building on their classroom learning about tree rings, climate, and water use.

Analyzing tree-ring samples for spikes of naturally occurring radioactive carbon isotopes, a team led by U of A scientists has pinpointed the date of a massive solar particle eruption event that has long eluded researchers.

Climate change is altering the story that trees are telling. Scientists are having to adjust, coming up with new approaches to interpret the changing signal. And yet, as the scientists are shifting their techniques, it may be possible for them to design methods that get even more precise about the past — and in turn will help us better adapt to the future.

With funding from the Department of Energy, U of A researchers are working to revolutionize our understanding of how soil microbes influence climate change.

The Mentorship and Education in Science for Tucson program sends U of A juniors and seniors to local middle and high schools to provide one-on-one math tutoring to students.

Funding will support the development of K-12 programs that educate teachers and students about responsible mining and careers in the mining industry.

The U of A ranks No. 1 in the U.S. in water resources, according to ShanghaiRanking's 2024 Global Ranking of Academic Subjects. The U of A has ranked in the top 10 globally since ShanghaiRanking started ranking water resources programs in 2017.

An esteemed honor for mathematicians, Fellows of the AMS are recognized for “outstanding contributions to the creation, exposition, advancement, communication, and utilization of mathematics.”
