Hydropower generation estimated using water proxy data leads to a revision of the nation’s historical seasonal hydropower output.

A new model uses machine learning to project electricity loads across the United States.

Future global warming-induced changes to watershed and coastal processes can significantly affect the magnitude of fluvial-coastal compound flooding.

New research finds that global warming will bring stronger and more frequent hurricanes to U.S. coasts, up by a third compared to current levels.

Mesoscale convective systems that are clustered in time and space have broader impacts on flooding than individual systems.

More realistically representing crops and agricultural practices dramatically improves simulations of carbon and energy exchange.

PNNL’s Katie Arkema was selected to be on NASEM committee focused on public health and conservation.

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.

Building new climate outcome scenarios by stitching together pieces of existing ones.

Researchers found that specific landscape metrics consistently outperform traditional population downscaling methods.

Haewon McJeon will co-edit a special issue of Energy and Climate Change focused on national decarbonization strategies across the globe.

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.

Abigail Snyder named to international team focused on designing and scoping models for use in large intercomparison project.

rmap enables users with limited to no geographic information system knowledge use R to visualize simple tabular data.

For a second year in a row, doctoral intern Jack Watson was awarded the Student Merit Award by the Society for Risk Analysis and the Resilience Analysis Specialty group.

The methods researchers use to estimate crop yield gaps determines the location of projected future agricultural “breadbasket” regions.

Five staff members from PNNL received awards from the Department of Energy’s Federal Energy Management Program for contributions to projects for the U.S. Army.

Steven Smith joins an international team that will evaluate current data and identify what should be included for future climate modeling.
