Ian Lange, associate professor, economics and business, is interviewed about the impact of tariffs on Canadian oil imported to the U.S. The Trump administration has put a 30-day pause on such tariffs, but Colorado could still see impacts if the administration eventually decides to press play.

Eric Anderson, associate professor, civil and environmental engineering, is quoted in this Newsweek article focusing on a recent satellite image that revealed the aftermath of a brutal cold snap that gripped Chicago between January 19 and 24, leaving Lake Michigan covered with ice. Anderson said improved ice measurements could enhance weather forecasting and provide valuable insights into changes in Earth's surface freshwater systems.

Jeffrey Ackerman, associate teaching professor in mechanical engineering who studies load carrying, is quoted in this BBC piece. "Our bodies are adapted to carrying our own body mass, then when you add a lot of weight, you really need to be doing strength training in a consistent way to grow your bigger load-carrying muscles," Ackerman said.

In this Letter in the journal Science, a number of Payne Institute associates discuss how energy resources on tribal lands should be utilized to the benefit of the tribes that own the land. Payne Institute authors include Richard Luarkie, director, Native American Mining and Energy Sovereignty Initiative (NAMES); Richard Tallman, program manager, NAMES; Brooke Bowser, communications associate; and Morgan Bazilian, Payne director.

Chris Dreyer, director of engineering at Mines' Center for Space Resources, is quoted in this article about Helium-3. The gas is needed to achieve the cold temperatures required by quantum computers. The article discusses mining the moon to obtain additional quantities of the precious and expensive substance.

A first of its kind dilution refrigerator is being built in Mines' Labriola Innovation Hub. When operating, the The Big Fridge can achieve a temperature as cold as any place in the known universe.

The first of its kind Big Fridge being built by Maybell Quantum in Mines' Labriola Innovation Hub is designed to house a quantum computer and provide the machine with the extremely cold environment it needs to operate.

Eric Anderson, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, discusses the findings of his new study, recently published in Environmental Research Letters.

Paulo Tabares-Velasco, associate professor of mechanical engineering, explains why keeping the blinds and drapes closed can help keep more heat in your home in this Next with Kyle Clark segment.

Mines PhD student Sam Saiter talks about why he got into quantum engineering in this segment, filmed in the quantum clean room on the Mines campus.
