Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy selects PNNL project to help accelerate the development of marine carbon dioxide removal technologies.

Soil is a massive reservoir of carbon, holding three times the amount of carbon than in the atmosphere. Soil is a massive reservoir of carbon, holding three times the amount of carbon than in the atmosphere.

Scientists can now generate a protein database directly from proteomics data gathered from a specific soil sample using a digital tool and deep learning computer model called Kaiko.

This PNNL project was the focus of Nune’s talk when he delivered the keynote for the Carbon Capture and Utilization track at the 2nd Annual Baker Hughes Energy Frontiers Summit.

The popular approach of organizing soil bacteria into fast- or slow-growing groups is problematic because most bacteria grow at comparable rates in soil.

Metabolomics analysis revealed differences in metabolome profiles for two distinct modes of fungal wood decay.

Variations in burn severity are a key control on the chemical constituents of dissolved organic matter delivered to streams within a single burn perimeter.

First-of-its-kind genomic catalog lends insight into previously unknown processes at the river’s edge.

Department of Energy, Office of Science Director Asmeret Asefaw Berhe visited PNNL to learn about the Lab’s drive to conduct discovery science, commitment to science for an equitable future, and development of a diversified STEM workforce.

A multi-omics analysis provides the framework for gaining insights into the structure and function of microbial communities across multiple habitats on a planetary scale

A rich and largely untapped reservoir of lipids in soil environments was used to examine microorganisms’ physiological responses to drying-rewetting cycles.

Snekmer is an application for building and searching protein family models and novel sequence clusters.

Newly developed models can help rapidly optimize systems to meet the need for rapidly deployable commercial carbon capture.

A new method to convert waste plastic to fuel and raw materials promises to help close the carbon cycle at mild temperature and with high yield.

A team from the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory published research, demonstrating that the soil microbes were directly involved in the stabilization of soil organic carbon and mineral weathering.

Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.

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 world’s most widely used chemicals: methanol.

A new project will produce a database of optimized conditions for efficient, carbon negative recovery of energy-relevant minerals in red mud waste.

Studying how microorganisms behave in space could facilitate farming in the final frontier and lead to better crops on Earth.

Organismal contribution and community interaction drive soil organic matter breakdown by microbes.
