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.
After 20 years of contributions to the field of hydrogen safety, the Hydrogen Safety Panel launched its new mentoring program at PNNL earlier this year. Now, the program has selected its first two mentees.
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.
PNNL and collaborators developed new models—recently approved by the U.S. Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC)—to help utilities understand how new grid-forming inverter technology will enhance grid stability.
The SHASTA program is doing a deep dive on subsurface hydrogen storage in underground caverns, helping to lay the foundation for a robust hydrogen economy.
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.
Identifying how curvature affects the doping and hydrogen binding energies of carbon-based materials provides a framework for designing hydrogen storage materials.
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.
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.
PNNL led one of five Pathway Summer School programs nationwide, with a specific focus on engaging students from Native American or Indigenous backgrounds.
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.
The popular approach of organizing soil bacteria into fast- or slow-growing groups is problematic because most bacteria grow at comparable rates in soil.
Variations in burn severity are a key control on the chemical constituents of dissolved organic matter delivered to streams within a single burn perimeter.
Patented microchannel heat-exchange technology enables the production of hydrogen from methane, the main ingredient of natural gas, while producing 30 percent less carbon dioxide than conventional processes.
