The desert is beautiful, but it gets hot this time of year. Need something fun to do while escaping the summer heat? @UArizona is here for our local communities. Keep an eye on this thread for opportunities to Beat the Heat in Tucson, on campus and around southern Arizona.

When I look at this jet stream the word insane comes to mind. It's even more astonishing when you consider it's mid June! This configuration, likely enhanced by climate heating, is fueling a record heat dome so extreme that even experts are astonished!

Powerful presentation by oceanographer and prof @DeepBlueSeaNext at last night’s @SciEntExchange event. I learned so much about the ocean’s connection to #climate change and am fully inspired by her work and advocacy. 🌊🌍

Is this sudden shift in the @_SouthernOcean a response to #climate change? We need to know how the #Antarctic system is changing – and why.
