PNNL scientists have proposed an "adaptive site management" cleanup strategy for the Hanford Site's Central Plateau that incorporates a structured, flexible approach to environmental remediation.
PNNL will provide technical resources and support to a national coalition of states and cities focused on implementing building performance standards to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.
Ocean biogeochemical modeling software now available as open source to help researchers predict impacts of pollution, sea level rise, and climate change.
Integrating hydrogeology and biogeochemistry are required to model the dynamics of geochemical processes occurring in river corridor zones where groundwater and surface water mix.
Contributions from researchers across Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) were recently recognized in the preliminary findings of a Secretary of Energy Advisory Board (SEAB) report.
Existing techniques to detect pertechnetate in the environment have drawbacks. PNNL’s redox sensor technology uses a gold probe to accurately and efficiently measure low levels of pertechnetate—and possibly other contaminants—in groundwater
