Research at PNNL and the University of Texas at El Paso are addressing computational challenges of thinking beyond the list and developing bioagent-agnostic signatures to assess threats.

A new study suggests accessing groundwater in key regions could become prohibitively expensive as lower-cost stores are used up.

Five PNNL scientists participated in an invitation-only Department of Energy-sponsored workshop on coastal systems. 

New work finds hurricanes are intensifying faster close to the coast—a trend that’s likely to ramp up in a warmer world.

PNNL computing experts Robert Rallo and Court Corley contribute their knowledge to a recent DOE report on applications of AI to energy, materials, and the power grid.

Beyond melting ice and higher temperatures: On Earth Day, scientists consider how climate change will affect national security.

Tennessee State University received Department of Energy funding to establish an academy focused on preparing students and professionals to work in an emerging field: clean energy systems. PNNL is helping with that effort and others.

PNNL advisors joined a panel of Washington State emergency management personnel to discuss how partnerships with national laboratories are enabling science and technology solutions.
