Danny Herrera, a systems engineer and leader in the National Security Directorate at PNNL, has been named the new co-director of the Institute for Cybersecurity and Resilient Infrastructure Studies.
In the search for rare physics events, extremely pure materials are essential. A partnership between PNNL and Ultramet has led to tungsten with low contamination from other elements.
Seawater threatens to intrude into coastal freshwater aquifers that millions of people depend on for drinking water and irrigation. This study investigates sea-level rise impacts on the global coastal groundwater table.
New datasets delineating global urban land support scientific research, application, and policy, but they can produce different results when applied to the same problem making it difficult for researchers to decide which to use.
A tethered balloon system was used at the Southern Great Plains atmospheric observatory in Oklahoma to collect atmospheric particles from ground and aloft levels. Samples were later analyzed for their organic molecular composition.
A recent paper published in Science sheds light on how aerosols—tiny particles in the air—released by industrial activities can trigger downstream snowfall events.
The demand for energy is growing—and so is the technology supporting it. However, future development of power generation technologies could be affected by a key factor: material supply.
