Through a newly established NSF Science and Technology Center, University of Arizona researchers will use digital tools to communicate with plants and develop new crops to support sustainable agriculture.
The class normally includes a three-hour science lab for nearly 200 students. When coursework shifted online in 2020, the lecturers turned to CyVerse to host virtual lab sessions.
HydroGEN, a UArizona-led project leveraging CyVerse resources and funded by the National Science Foundation's Convergence Accelerator program, will allow researchers to build a national platform for hydrologic forecasting.
The funding supplement will assist CyVerse in expanding upon its existing services while continuing to provide researchers and educators with leading data management and analysis tools, resources, and services.
A CyVerse-supported project combined extensive species mapping with remote sensing records of deforestation and fire, revealing that the Amazon's biodiversity is extraordinarily vulnerable to changes in forest management and policy enforcement.
