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.
A new study uses direct numerical simulations to develop a near-surface turbulence model for thermal convection using interpretable and physics-aware neural networks, broadening the applications of numerical simulations.
A PNNL study developed a water management module for Xanthos that distinguishes between the operational characteristics of hydropower, irrigation, and flood control reservoirs.
The Earth System Model Aerosol–Cloud Diagnostics package version 2 uses aircraft, ship, ground, and satellite measurements to evaluate detailed physical processes in aerosols, clouds, and aerosol–cloud interactions.
Identifying how curvature affects the doping and hydrogen binding energies of carbon-based materials provides a framework for designing hydrogen storage materials.
New research shows how cloud shapes affect the process of cloud evolution, resulting in better understanding of how clouds behave, improving weather forecasts, and enhancing comprehension of climate systems.
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.
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
PNNL is working with the Port of Seattle and Seattle City Light to assess the risks of long-term hydrogen storage that can bring clean power for decarbonization.
