A new review paper led by senior research scientist Chun-Long Chen and featured on the cover of Accounts of Chemical Research summarizes advances by PNNL scientists in developing sequence-defined peptoids.
PNNL has published a report that sets the foundation for modeling gaps and technical challenges in optimizing hydropower operations for both energy production and water management.
California and other areas of the U.S. Southwest may see less future winter precipitation than previously projected by climate models, according to new research that corrects for a long-standing model error: the double-ITCZ bias.
Beginning in 2021, PNNL chemical physicist Bruce Kay begins a three-year term as an AVS trustee, part of a six-member committee responsible for overseeing the administration of student scholarships and major society awards.
Water and energy researchers are invited to join a new task force as a way to collaborate broadly on the intersection of the two topics. The task force is part of IEEE's Power and Energy Society and was launched by PNNL and UU researchers.
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 researchers used machine learning to explore the largest water clusters database, identifying—with the most accurate neural network—important information about this life-essential molecule.
PNNL has earned “Best Paper” at an international resilience conference for research on hydropower’s capabilities and constraints in the event of extreme events, like hurricanes and rolling blackouts.
Culminating 10 years of study, researchers at PNNL’s Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory developed a new predictive framework for estuarine–tidal river research and management.
First-ever measurements provide evidence that supercooled water exists in two distinct structures that co-exist and vary in proportion dependent on temperature.
PNNL biologists have developed a more efficient way to estimate salmon survival through dams that uses solid science but saves over 42 percent of the cost.
