PNNL is a leader in defining the magnitude of the issue, as well as in developing the scientific basis for practical solutions. For example, our scientists are recognized internationally for their efforts to link atmospheric, ocean system, ecosystem, and technology models that reveal the complex interactions and feedback between the climate system and human activity. Insights gained through these activities are shaping climate strategies worldwide and helping government and industry make decisions about technological investments that are most likely to minimize costs while maximizing benefits.
