The results of this study are consistent with the idea that the stress of chronic salinity exposure changes tree leaf shape and function, weakening their physiology and setting in motion processes that lead to death.
Through collaboration with the Department of Homeland Security Soft Target Engineering to Neutralize the Threat Reality Center of Excellence, PNNL is advancing research and development of tools and methodologies to protect crowded places.
PNNL’s ARENA test bed analyzes how electrical cables degrade in extreme environments and how nondestructive examination inspection technologies can detect and locate damage.
A combined experimental and theoretical study identified multiple interactions that affect the performance of redox-active metal oxides for potential electrochemical separation and quantum computing applications.
Scientists used a new analysis approach—coupled laser ablation sampling and capillary absorption spectroscopy—to gather more information on how the rhizosphere processes carbon.
PNNL researchers developed a hybrid quantum-classical approach for coupled-cluster Green’s function theory that maintains accuracy while cutting computational costs.
A team of researchers developed a simulation approach to identify how atomic structures can affect the phonon transport of energy and information in quantum systems near absolute zero temperatures.
