A new microbial community model reveals previous exposure to hydrologic variation influences a species’ specialized biogeochemical functions.

Janet Teng, who interned at PNNL this summer, has been named the overall winner of the 2021 Ignite Off! competition.

Detailed characterization of molecules in, under, and along the Columbia River reveal potential mechanisms for biogeochemical cycling.

Integrating hydrogeology and biogeochemistry are required to model the dynamics of geochemical processes occurring in river corridor zones where groundwater and surface water mix.

Theoretical analysis reveals flow variations that happen over longer time periods affect a plume’s spread and center of mass.

Covalent organic polymers can adsorb three times more refrigerant than the best available alternatives, resulting in more efficient cooling.

PNNL recognizes some of the outstanding postdoctoral researchers that move science forward during National Postdoc Appreciation Week.

When it comes to hydrogen compatibility, all rubbers are not created equal. New research hints at pathways to improve the durability of rubber-based materials in hydrogen infrastructure.

The Department of Energy announced $30 million for 13 projects.

Rotational Hammer Riveting, developed by PNNL, joins dissimilar materials quickly without preheating rivets. The friction-based riveting enables use of lightweight magnesium rivets and also works on aluminum and speeds manufacturing.

The built-in tools of ants have been imaged in atomic detail for the first time by materials scientist Arun Devaraj.

Knowing which bacteria in a community are involved with carbon cycling could help scientists predict how microbial carbon storage and release could influence future climate dynamics.

IDREAM study characterizes chemical species and mechanisms that control aluminum salt and mineral crystallization for nuclear waste retrieval, processing.

Extreme sea levels will become 100 times more frequent by the end of the century around the world, according to a new study.

Jinhui Tao serves on the Editorial Board for the “Biomineralization and Biominerals” Section of the scientific journal Minerals.

A patented process for converting alcohol sourced from renewable or industrial waste gasses into jet or diesel fuel is being scaled up at PNNL.

A new study shows that, when starved, some trees turn to self-digestion before dialing down energy storage.

PNNL’s data-infused approach to electron microscopes’ use in scientific experimentation will help researchers and industry interpret large data streams and drive down costs.

Suresh Baskaran was recently named a fellow of the American Ceramics Society, making him one of seventeen members elevated to fellow status in 2021.

Researchers developed two solutions for air-conditioning—a novel, energy-efficient dehumidification system and a technology to detect refrigerant leaks. Both help increase energy-efficiency and reduce costs.
