University of Arizona Department of Geosciences:	"The Department of Geosciences focuses on research and education dealing with the nature, genesis and history of the Earth and its crust, and with the evolution of the environment and biota at the Earth's surface. Our faculty and students are active in the areas of tectonics: structural geology and regional tectonics; isotope and trace element geochemistry; geochronology; physical geochemistry and petrology; mineral energetics; crystallography and mineral physics; economic geology: regional metallogenesis and the role of fluids in ore genesis; chemical and isotopic studies of water; geophysics: earthquake and reflection seismology, paleomagnetism and plate dynamics; planetary geology; Quaternary studies: geomorphology and paleoenvironmental studies; stratigraphy/paleontology: paleoclimatology and paleobiology; and archaeological geology." "We encourage interdisciplinary approaches to research in the geosciences, both within the department and through interdepartmental programs."
