Skillful predictions of tropical cyclone activity on subseasonal time scales may help mitigate their destructive impacts. This study investigates the combined impacts of atmospheric phenomena to better understand cyclone activity.

Hydrogen atoms released and trapped in irradiated gibbsite are destabilized by synthetic-precursor residuals.

Topographic variations have substantial impacts on surface hydrologic processes. This study introduced a new subgrid structure and methods to increase model accuracy for snow water equivalent predictions.

The Delaware River Basin is projected to experience a regional increase in flood severity under future climate scenarios.

PNNL researchers studied the microstructure of lithium silicates under emulated fusion conditions.

Combining cold spray deposition and friction stir processing for a more efficient route to oxide dispersion strengthened steel.

An atomic sieving effect selectively promotes diffusion of some species, leading to different oxidation rates at surface facets.

Electronic modifications from hydrogen spillover onto the oxide support increase the activity of single-atom rhodium catalysts.

The results of this study reveal that the degree of Arctic amplification, despite being controlled by complicated interactions among multiple factors, can be analytically understood.

Researchers found that in a future where the Great Plains are 4 to 6 degrees Celsius (°C) warmer as projected in a high-emission scenario, these storms could bring three times more intense rainfall.

The atomic-level distribution of nickel and cobalt in forsterite depends on the concentration of the different elements.

Fully identifying what controls nanocrystal assembly requires incorporating non-traditional forces into models.

The surface oxygen functionality of graphene oxide may be tuned using ultraviolet light, affecting how differently charged ions move through the material.

A recent study suggests a higher global mean precipitation increase and narrows the uncertainty range.

The study found that the way a fire burns (in open air versus in an oven in a controlled lab setting) can greatly change the leftover materials (char or charcoal) and how they interact in the environment.

Researchers studied the boundary precipitation of tungsten heavy alloys in an extended high temperature irradiation environment

Recycling polyolefin materials is challenging. One waste management strategy is plastic upcycling. New work demonstrates a single-step upcycling route coupling cracking and alkylation, recycling carbon and keeping valuable resources active.

When exposed to a sufficiently high dose of ionizing radiation, gibbsite and boehmite are less susceptible to dehydration-induced breakdown.

A new study examines the effect of peptoid sequences on the mechanisms and kinetics of their two-dimensional assembly on mica surfaces and how molecular interactions alter assembly kinetics.

A new study demonstrates a hybrid model that can simulate part of a system at the molecular scale and other parts at larger scales in a computationally efficient manner, providing greater simulation flexibility.
