By studying discrete functional components of the soil microbiome at high resolution, researchers obtained a more complete picture of soil diversity compared to analysis of the entire soil community.
International editing team provided 15-year update, with Devanathan focused on intersection of nuclear science, materials science, and multiscale modeling.
PNNL scientists have created an improved metal-organic framework (MOF) for adsorption cooling, that performs at least 40 percent better than its predecessors.
In this study, researchers probed the ice nucleation ability of different aerosol types by combining 11-year observations from multiple satellites and cloud-resolving model simulations.
PNNL scientists led a study to explore the characteristics of seasonal precipitation changes and investigate the underlying mechanisms, with a focus on clarifying the roles of moisture and circulation in the western U.S.
Scientists at PNNL used an integrated Earth System Model (ESM) and an economically oriented energy-land model to examine how human-natural feedbacks operate under high and medium warming scenarios.
A multi-institution research team found how the protein environment surrounding some enzymes can alter the direction of a cellular reaction, as well as its rate—up to six orders of magnitude—in a phenomenon referred to as catalytic bias.
New study provides a key reference for Demeter users and is expected to help reduce uncertainties in downstream hydrologic and Earth system simulations.
To help close the gap between observed and modeled ice-nucleating particles (INPs), researchers simulated concentrations of dust, sea spray, and other types of atmospheric particles within a global atmospheric model.
Researchers at PNNL and the University of Washington examined storms seen by the GPM satellite and found that deep convective storms have been occurring surprisingly frequently at high latitudes during the warm seasons of recent years.
Researchers quantified temperature and gas-cycle responses over time of five simple climate models to impulses of carbon dioxide, methane, and black carbon.
PNNL scientists Larry Berg, Susannah Burrows, Nicholas Ward, and Yun Qian were named among the most outstanding journal reviewers by the American Geophysical Union.
PNNL and Oklahoma State University join forces to understand the chemistry of sodium-ion and potassium-ion batteries thanks to an award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).
Researchers analyzed the relationship between Earth’s climate sensitivity and historical/future sea level projections, with a particular focus on the high‐impact upper tail.
Corresponding PNNL authors assembled a team of experts to show that supercritical carbon dioxide is a promising media for the construction of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
As author of her first publication, PNNL bioinformaticist Isabelle O’Bryon developed the first forensic proteomics method to more quickly detect ricin, a toxin often crudely made in home laboratories that can kill in trace amounts.
