Across the United States, organic carbon concentration imposes a primary control on river sediment respiration, with additional influences from organic matter chemistry.
A team from the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory published research, demonstrating that the soil microbes were directly involved in the stabilization of soil organic carbon and mineral weathering.
New mathematical tools developed at PNNL hold promise to transform the way we operate and defend complex cyber-physical systems, such as the power grid.
