PNNL’s Heida Diefenderfer was recently appointed to a National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine committee that will assess long-term environmental trends in the Gulf of Mexico region.
First-ever measurements provide evidence that supercooled water exists in two distinct structures that co-exist and vary in proportion dependent on temperature.
In a new review, PNNL researchers outline how to convert stranded biomass to sustainable fuel using electrochemical reduction reactions in mini-refineries powered by renewable energy.
Twelve researchers from PNNL presented at the 2020 Metabolomics Association of North America virtual conference in mid-September. Their presentations included a plenary talk, keynote talks, oral presentations, posters, and a lightning talk.
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is part of a continuing National Science Foundation (NSF) team investigating the environmental impact of nanoparticles at the molecular level.
PNNL ocean engineer Alicia Gorton was invited to serve on the advisory board of the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Ocean Engineering at the Stevens Institute of Technology.
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.
PNNL researchers combined future socioeconomic and climate conditions in a complex model that accounts for the relationships between energy, water, land, climate, and human activities to predict future changes in virtual water trading.
PNNL scientists led a study to quantify radiative feedbacks using historical short-term climate simulations. These simulations can reproduce the observed warming and polar amplification.
Both fast-evolving and inherently random physical phenomena can appear noisy in numerical simulations. Now a generalized Itô correction can help ensure solution accuracy.
