Thin oxide films play an important role in electronics and energy storage. Researchers in PNNL’s film growth laboratory create, explore, and improve new thin oxide films.
Mitra Taheri served as a co-editor on a special issue of the Materials Research Society Bulletin, which also featured work from Daniel Schreiber and Cindy Powell.
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 scenario approach was used to explore the potential future role of hydropower around the globe considering the multisectoral dynamics of regional energy systems and basin-specific water resources.
A new report, based on a community workshop and literature review, summarizes some of the biggest challenges in understanding and modeling Earth system and human–Earth system dynamics in the Puget Sound region of Washington State.
A systematic, multiple scenario approach was used to analyze the compounding impacts of demands for land for biofuels with increased land scarcity under a diverse set of uncertainties.
