This project sought to assure that research activities centered around different sampling and monitoring efforts in northwest Ohio would not disturb any historical cultural resources.

Despite the widespread presence of RNA viruses in soils, little is known about the relative contributions and interactions of biological and environmental factors shaping the composition of soil RNA viral communities.

A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted a 13C-labeling greenhouse study using a semi-arid grassland soil, where they tracked the fate of 13C-labeled inputs from living roots and decaying roots from annual grass Avena barbata.

In soil, microbes produce and consume methane. Using a technique called pool dilution, researchers can separate the rate of methane production and consumption from the net rate.

PNNL’s Climate Network with MSIs and HBCUs aims to bring opportunities to diverse populations.

Hi-C metagenomics-informed phage-host infection networks detected in soil pre- and post-drying.

Scientists at PNNL have published a new article that focuses on understanding the composition, dynamics, and deployment of beneficial soil microbiomes to get the most out of soil.

Researchers created a methodology to design custom network topologies that improve the execution time for scientific applications.

Soil is a massive reservoir of carbon, holding three times the amount of carbon than in the atmosphere. Soil is a massive reservoir of carbon, holding three times the amount of carbon than in the atmosphere.

Researchers unveil user-friendly software to keep complex projects on budget and on schedule.

The diversity and function of organic matter in rivers at a large scale are influenced by factors, such as the types of vegetation covering the land, the energy characteristics, and the breakdown potential of the molecules.

Scientists can now generate a protein database directly from proteomics data gathered from a specific soil sample using a digital tool and deep learning computer model called Kaiko.

PNNL researchers present challenges and opportunities for fusing graph neural networks with deep reinforcement learning.

PNNL researchers outline open problems in different scientific areas in the Journal of Combinatorics.

The popular approach of organizing soil bacteria into fast- or slow-growing groups is problematic because most bacteria grow at comparable rates in soil.

Metabolomics analysis revealed differences in metabolome profiles for two distinct modes of fungal wood decay.

Methods review suggests ways to use artificial intelligence and machine learning to handle missing data when integrating two or more omics approaches.

Variations in burn severity are a key control on the chemical constituents of dissolved organic matter delivered to streams within a single burn perimeter.

Department of Energy, Office of Science Director Asmeret Asefaw Berhe visited PNNL to learn about the Lab’s drive to conduct discovery science, commitment to science for an equitable future, and development of a diversified STEM workforce.

A multi-omics analysis provides the framework for gaining insights into the structure and function of microbial communities across multiple habitats on a planetary scale
