Scientists map how transitions from day to night control gene regulatory networks in cyanobacteria, revealing key orchestrators of metabolic switching.

Scientists uncover how cyanobacteria's circadian cycle controls carbon and energy metabolism, increasing carbon dioxide-to-bioproducts yields.

PNNL chemical engineer Mariefel Olarte shares passion for mentoring students and the next-generation workforce.

Researchers developed a robust, cost-effective, and easy-to-use cap-based technique for spatial proteome mapping, addressing the lack of accessible proteomics technologies for studying tissue heterogeneity and microenvironments.

CACTUS provides AI-powered cheminformatics for autonomous science.

PNNL's accomplishments in FY 2024 help address the remaining challenges the wind industry faces.

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.

Seawater threatens to intrude into coastal freshwater aquifers that millions of people depend on for drinking water and irrigation. This study investigates sea-level rise impacts on the global coastal groundwater table.

Several Earth system components are at a high risk of undergoing rapid, irreversible qualitative changes or ‘tipping’ with increasing climate warming.

A multi-institutional team of researchers systematically compared extraction techniques for characterizing plant litter composition that relies on organic matter extraction.

A recent paper published in Science sheds light on how aerosols—tiny particles in the air—released by industrial activities can trigger downstream snowfall events.

NASA has awarded $2.5 million to the BioS-ENDURES consortium, led by the University of Washington and including WSU and PNNL, to advance space life sciences research supporting human health in space and Earth-based applications.

PNNL scientists use proteomics to unveil how high-density lipoproteins protect against cholesterol accumulation in the artery wall.

The demand for energy is growing—and so is the technology supporting it. However, future development of power generation technologies could be affected by a key factor: material supply.

Computing and artificial intelligence aid scientists who seek to understand function-driven design and control of biological systems.

Klickitat Valley Health's fuel cell and microgrid project boosts rural healthcare, enhancing energy resilience and sustainability for social equity.

Through a detailed examination of historical data supported by mechanistic analysis and model experiments, researchers unveil that a large-scale climate system intensifies heat extremes and wildfire risks in the PNW.

This study shows that dry dynamics alone is not enough to understand jet stream persistence. Instead, clouds and precipitation are more important contributors than internal “dry” mechanisms to this memory of the Southern Hemisphere jet.

Research that modeled increased heat pump adoption alongside climate change impacts in Texas showed that high-efficiency heat pumps buffer the strain that electric heating might put on the power grid.
