"It's sort of like using infrared goggles to see heat signatures in the dark, except this is underground." PNNL and CHPRC implemented a state-of-the-art approach to monitor the process of remediating residual uranium at Hanford's 300 Area.

PNNL scientists today unveiled an updated tool designed to help stakeholders assess the nation's preparedness for biological-based dangers, also known as biothreats.

In November, Northeastern University Seattle (NU-Seattle) hosted "Smart Cities: Critical Infrastructure Protection" to explore technology and policy opportunities and challenges facing the smart city evolution.

Vietnam's Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) Deputy Minister Pham Cong Tac awarded the Medal for the Cause of Science and Technology to PNNL's Todd Haynie.

New research shows how the viscosity of organic particles affects the mixing state of soot and alters its warming or cooling potential.

Researchers used novel methods to safely create and analyze plutonium samples. The approaches could prove influential in future studies of the radioactive material, benefitting research in legacy, national security and nuclear fuels.

By combining two promising techniques, PNNL scientists have demonstrated a way to double the fuel that can be extracted from corn stover.

An International Atomic Energy Agency effort, chaired by PNNL's Mike Truex, will help inform the process for achieving successful end states at contaminated sites worldwide.

Study shows that emissions from trans-Arctic shipping could increase clouds, cooling the atmosphere and surface.

When you watch young children learning to sort shapes or recognize letters, you can see how layers of knowledge build upon to create new understanding. Humans excel in this regard.

Samson Hagos, an atmospheric scientist, is the newest recipient of the American Meteorological Society's Clarence Leroy Meisinger Award.

Researchers discover how to improve battery safety and stability by altering the salt-to-solvent ratio in battery electrolytes, without compromising battery performance.

Researchers explore why invisible water films adsorbed to mineral surfaces behave differently than bulk liquids.
