Ann Lesperance has been invited to continue her role on the Domestic Preparedness advisory board, which convenes multidisciplinary subject matter experts to support the Domestic Preparedness Journal's editorial plan.

Brian Milbrath, a physicist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was selected as a new Task Leader for the PrepCom’s Working Group B.

Physicist Emily Mace will share her science journey and an interactive presentation about her current research with middle school and high school students from across the country at the National Science Bowl.

Future global warming-induced changes to watershed and coastal processes can significantly affect the magnitude of fluvial-coastal compound flooding.

New research finds that global warming will bring stronger and more frequent hurricanes to U.S. coasts, up by a third compared to current levels.

Mesoscale convective systems that are clustered in time and space have broader impacts on flooding than individual systems.

PNNL’s Sameera Horawalavithana joins the journals IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence and Humanities and Social Sciences Communications.

More realistically representing crops and agricultural practices dramatically improves simulations of carbon and energy exchange.

Artificial intelligence may help humans and computers work together to monitor materials that could be used to make weapons.

In new work, PNNL researchers find that 10 gigatons of carbon dioxide may need to be pulled from Earth's atmosphere and oceans annually to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. A diverse suite of carbon dioxide removal methods will be key.

A scenario approach was used to explore the potential future role of hydropower around the globe considering the multisectoral dynamics of regional energy systems and basin-specific water resources.
