Sriram Krishnamoorthy, a computer scientist at PNNL, collaborated with a University of Utah team on a student computing research project that won Best Student Paper at SC20.
Microbiome and soil chemistry characterization at long-term bioenergy research sites challenges idea that switchgrass increases carbon accrual in surface soils of marginal lands.
Two PNNL researchers, one a world-leading authority on microorganisms, the other an expert on coastal ecosystem restoration, have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Clarivate Analytics recently unveiled its 2020 list of Highly Cited Researchers. The list named 17 PNNL scientists for their influential and oft-referenced work.
This committee represents the country’s soil science community in the International Union of Soil Sciences, advises The National Academies, and communicates with professional societies and organizations.
James A. Ang, a PNNL computing expert, was recently invited to moderate a panel in a virtual workshop focused on federally funded research and development on software for heterogeneous computing.
Researchers performed controlled laboratory experiments using river sediment to test organic matter thermodynamics as a mechanism of metabolic control in areas where groundwater and surface water mix.
Researchers performed a combined analysis of metabolic and gene co-expression networks to explore how the soil microbiome responds to changes in moisture and nutrient conditions.
By studying discrete functional components of the soil microbiome at high resolution, researchers obtained a more complete picture of soil diversity compared to analysis of the entire soil community.
Accurate identification of metabolites, and other small chemicals, in biological and environmental samples has historically fallen short when using traditional methods.
A new study is among the first to trace the molecular connections between genetics, the gut microbiome and memory in a mouse model bred to resemble the diversity of the human population.
Scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have recently formed a new partnership with Washington State University Health Sciences Spokane to study how gut microbes influence circadian rhythms.
DOE researchers investigated the role of microbial genetic diversity in two major subsurface biogeochemical processes: nitrification and denitrification.
