A new moist potential vorticity model helps researchers understand atmosphere–land moisture exchanges over the United States.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Launch Point CDC, Inc. are developing a framework to empower disadvantaged communities with clean energy technology—along with a set of resources to give other community organizations a head start.

A modeling study finds that multiple factors almost perfectly balance under anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing, leaving no footprint on the dynamically induced ocean heat storage in the Southern Ocean.

PNNL is at the midpoint of a study focused on the installation of electric heat pump water heaters in New Orleans homes. The efficient water heaters offer a unique capability that could help speed the transition from fossil fuels.

Climate change and socioeconomic pressures are transforming passenger and freight transportation in the Arctic, producing effects that have yet to be fully understood.

Testing the assumption that different future socio-economic development patterns, which result in different land-use changes, can be paired with different future climate outcomes for risk assessments in a multi-model framework.

PNNL is honoring its postdoctoral researchers as part of the fourteenth annual National Postdoc Appreciation Week with seven profiles of postdocs from around the Laboratory.

New tool can be used to map energy-equity discrepancies.

Harnessing machine learning to enhance plant coexistence in a vegetation demographic model.

PNNL’s building science research and technology deployment initiatives were highlighted at the HUD Innovative Housing Showcase.

A holistic evaluation of the uncertainty sources that arise from configuring the model to processing the output for global variable-resolution models.

A success story of applying convergence testing to detect and address issues of numerical discretization in nonlinear representations of turbulence and clouds.

Researchers found a 150-day period in Antarctic circulation, something that many current climate models do not represent accurately.

The PNNL-managed Building America Solution Center translates research into actionable considerations for homeowners and builders to provide two solutions in one: increasing energy efficiency while also enhancing disaster resistance.

A new open-source feature tracking package is now available to facilitate advanced model evaluation, model development efforts, and scientific discovery.

Models show that in a warmer climate, the 2012 North American derecho would shrink and decay earlier in Mid-Atlantic coastal areas.

A PNNL team’s analysis of new-housing data concludes that single-family homes in lower-income counties are less energy-code-compliant than in higher-income counties, a finding that could shape strategies for enhanced code adoption.

Developed a data-assimilation method based on physics-informed deep learning to resolve downscaled flow fields within a large-scale river model.

PNNL’s extensive portfolio of buildings-grid research included three projects that helped answer some of the technical questions related to leveraging energy consumption in buildings to enhance grid operations.

Quantifying the long-term destination of anthropogenic emissions and robustness of global carbon sinks.
