In a recent study appearing in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, University of California, Davis and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers use computational modeling to investigate a hypothesized state of supercooled liquid water. The research provides evidence for two supercooled liquid water states.
The UC Davis CalTeach/Mathematics and Science Teaching Program (CalTeach/MAST) trains undergraduates for careers in the classroom. Through the program, a cohort of UC Davis undergraduates recently traveled to Loreto, Mexico to teach about water science.
After a year of planning, UC Davis students completed their first day of teaching in Escuela Secundaria Estatal Modesto Sánchez Mayón in Loreto, Baja California Sur, Mexico.
