By adding rain, snow, and rain-on-snow precipitation data to a background model, a new scheme pinpoints local flood risks in order to improve the design of small-scale hydrological infrastructure.

PNNL scientists investigate the promising properties of a common, Earth-abundant salt.

Infusing data science and artificial intelligence into electron microscopy could advance energy storage, quantum information science, and materials design.

PNNL has three small-scale spectroscopy devices that are speeding up the testing and analysis of candidate novel materials used in energy storage research and environmental remediation.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is part of a continuing National Science Foundation (NSF) team investigating the environmental impact of nanoparticles at the molecular level.

At PNNL, subsurface science inhabits two separate but interlocking worlds. One looks at basic science, the other at applied science and engineering. Both are funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

From microscopic bacteria in river sediments to vast watersheds to global-scale data and inquiries, a PNNL scientist plays a big research role

PNNL adds its expertise to an international expedition investigating the vulnerable central Arctic Ocean.

We are all citizens of watersheds, the terrestrial landscapes that determine how much water we have, how clean it is, where it goes, and how fast.

His patents involve novel MS and IMS technologies that, in the end, have enabled a deeper understanding of living systems.

A study co-led by PNNL and reviewed in Science investigates how nanomaterials—both ancient and modern—cycle through the Earth’s air, water, and land, and calls for a better understanding of how they affect the environment and human health.

Kelsey Stoerzinger leverages advances in surface chemistry to develop materials for clean energy and water purification.

Researchers at PNNL are developing a new class of acoustically active nanomaterials designed to improve the high-resolution tracking of exploratory fluids injected into the subsurface. These could improve subsurface geophysical monitoring.
