        <section class="introduction">
            <p>We are a research group at the <strong>University of Alabama</strong> in the <strong>Department of Geological Sciences</strong>. Our mission is to simulate Earth's dynamic processes for two distinct, but overlapping objectives:</p>
            <ul>
                <li>To learn about the world around us. Demonstrably accurate simulations and predictions indicate understanding. This feeds back into improved mathematical representations, increasing knowledge.</li>
                <li>To make predictions of real future scenarios (forecasts) and hypothetical scenarios that can inform actions. The need for improved forecasts drives the need for improved simulations.</li>
            </ul>
            <p>We collaborate closely with the <strong>U.S. National Water Center</strong> and the <strong>Alabama Water Institute</strong>, leveraging partnerships to tackle challenges in geophysical modeling and Earth system dynamics.</p>
        </section>

        <section class="department-info">
            <p>University of Alabama’s geology program was established in 1847, focusing on mapping and developing the geological resources of Alabama. Over time, the Department of Geological Sciences has expanded its <a href="https://geo.ua.edu/about-2/research/">research activities</a>, covering all <a href="https://geo.ua.edu/research/interactive-map/">corners of the globe</a>.
