PNNL researchers have used field campaign data to better understand clouds, aerosols, and the interactions between humans and the atmosphere.

There are many ways that researchers at PNNL bring unique perspectives to the field of distributed wind. One is the fact that PNNL's distributed wind projects are all led by women.

Pacific Northwest may face increase in summer heat-dome-like stationary waves.

PNNL study explored multiple factors that could impact future snowpack—a critical source of water for communities, irrigation and energy generation.

An energy expert and economist who has played a leading role in formulating and coordinating U.S. climate policy is the new director of the Joint Global Change Research Institute in College Park, Maryland.

Earth Scientist Laura Fierce mentors Department of Energy Science Graduate Student Research program awardees.

Researchers at PNNL joined more than 600 national experts who contributed to NCA5.

PNNL had a significant presence at October’s North American Wind Energy Academy/WindTech 2023 Conference in Denver, Colorado. Thirteen PNNL wind experts participated in various capacities.

If current warming trends continue, heat waves like Washington's deadliest could grow stronger and afflict the Pacific Northwest more often.

Researchers use models to represent relationships between climate and socio-economic processes, helping inform decisions for slowing climate change and enhancing resilience.

Jingyi Chen and Claudia Tebaldi honored as outstanding reviewers by the American Geophysical Union.

Claudia Tebaldi, a PNNL Earth scientist, has been named a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union. Tebaldi and others will be recognized at AGU23 in December.

Variations in the level of market globalization can greatly affect the amount of water required to meet future global demand for agricultural commodities.

Climate change and socioeconomic pressures are transforming passenger and freight transportation in the Arctic, producing effects that have yet to be fully understood.

In a new paper, researchers point to three major efforts where the biggest climate mitigation gains stand to be realized: ramping up carbon dioxide removal, reigning in non-carbon dioxide emissions and halting deforestation.

Testing the assumption that different future socio-economic development patterns, which result in different land-use changes, can be paired with different future climate outcomes for risk assessments in a multi-model framework.

Incorporating spatially explicit land characteristics in a global model illustrates the complex effects of applying uniform regional protection assumptions in a global analysis.

PNNL will lead support to one of six community teams chosen today by the U.S. Department of Energy to receive a total of up to $25 million.

The Distributed Wind Market Report provides market statistics and analysis, along with insights into market trends and characteristics of wind technologies used as distributed energy resources.
