Using a combination of satellite data and modeling to study the temperatures and humidity people might feel in urban areas, researchers have pinpointed who in the U.S. is most vulnerable to heat stress.
Joel W. Duling will steward PNNLās $1.2-billion campus development plan and guide the Laboratoryās efforts to achieve net-zero emissions among other duties.
In new work, PNNL researchers find that 10 gigatons of carbon dioxide may need to be pulled from Earth's atmosphere and oceans annually to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. A diverse suite of carbon dioxide removal methods will be key.
A new sodium battery technology shows promise for helping integrate renewable energy into the electric grid. The battery uses Earth-abundant raw materials such as aluminum and sodium.
The award-winning PNNL innovation, called Mobile Source Transit Security, is an electronic system that keeps track of and secures radiological material in transit or at jobsites.
PNNL scientists carve a path to profit from carbon capture by creating a system that efficiently captures CO2 and converts it into one of the worldās most widely used chemicals: methanol.
Extreme winter storms are growing wetter and changing shape in the Western United Statesāsuch changes could compromise infrastructure designed to withstand only so much water.
The world's current climate pledges won't limit global warming to 1.5Ā Ā°C. We will overshoot. A new study shows that more ambitious climate pledges could minimize the overshoot.
A new discovery simultaneously reduces the need for rare and expensive platinum and improves its ability to speed up economically important chemical reactions.
