The first measurement of the proton diffusion constant at cryogenic temperatures provides insights into the mechanism of proton movement in supercooled water.
PNNL's “co-scientist” serves as a one-stop AI shop for accelerating scientific discovery. By leveraging AI agents, researchers can explore scientific databases, conduct analyses and request step-by-step plans for testing their hypotheses.
Chemist Wendy Shaw, a nationally recognized scientific leader, has been chosen to serve as the associate laboratory director for PNNL's Physical and Computational Sciences Directorate.
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.
PNNL and one of the world’s largest tire makers will work to develop a commercially viable process that converts ethanol derived from sustainable sources or waste, like recycled tires, to butadiene, synthetic rubber’s main ingredient.
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.
