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.
At the 2024 Aviation Futures Workshop, researchers from PNNL joined other subject matter experts and representatives from the stakeholder community in reimagining the passenger experience.
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.
PNNL staff in the Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics division were recognized by the TSA’s Innovation Task Force (ITF) for their contributions to cloud capabilities, development strategies, and smart management of cloud resources.
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.
At the National Homeland Security Conference, researchers shared how partnerships and emerging technologies like artificial intelligence can play a key role in emergency management preparedness and response.
Aerosol particles imbue climate models with uncertainty. New work by PNNL researchers reveals where in the world and under what conditions new particles are born.
Climate change is bringing more extreme summer weather, from heat waves to hurricanes, that can disrupt the flow of electricity. Here’s how PNNL scientists are working on solutions to protect the nation’s electric grid.
Accessing groundwater may become more difficult—and more expensive—as groundwater supplies become increasingly scarce and underground aquifer levels fall.
In the latest issue of the Domestic Preparedness Journal, Ashley Bradley and Kristin Omberg share how new research is shedding light on the scientific and technological challenges with detecting fentanyl.
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.
