Brandon Dugan,  professor of geophysics at Colorado School of Mines, joined WBUR's All Things Considered to discuss the eureka moment of discovering a massive reserve of fresh water under the ocean floor off the coast of Cape Cod this summer.

Chris Higgins, professor of civil and environmental engineering, is quoted about the discovery of PFAS in Boulder County.

Brandon Dugan, professor of geophysics, discusses his research on the presence of fresh water trapped under the ocean.

Kyle Leach, professor of physics, authors this article that considers a new type of laser that would use a beam of neutrinos instead of light.

Kyle Leach, professor of physics, says there would be a huge payoff if scientists could accomplish their goal of creating a neutrino laser.

Brandon Dugan, professor of geophysics, is interviewed about his study, funded by the National Science Foundation. Dugan's research involves the examination of an aquifer containing fresh water that stretches from New Jersey's coast to as far north as Maine.

Sabre Cook, 2017 mechanical engineering graduate, returns to Mines to talk to students about her car racing career. Cook says what she learned as a mechanical engineering student helps her better understand, and discuss with her race team, the mechanics of how her car is performing in competitions.

Ron Cohen, emeritus associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, is quoted about radium showing up in flood waters. Cohen said exposure to low levels of radium happens to everyone, but exposure to high levels of radium will cause cancer.

Anna Littlefield, geothermal and carbon capture utilization and storage program manager at the Payne Institute for Public Policy, says that there's isn't a "hard cutoff" for how deeply carbon can be buried in an attempt to keep it out of the atmosphere.

Chris Dreyer, professor of practice in mechanical engineering, is interviewed for this article focusing on a company's plan to mine for Helium-3 on the moon. Helium-3 is primarily used in security scanners to detect neutrons from nuclear bombs or smuggled radioactive material.
