Sherman Beus, software engineer, Katie Dorsey, communications team writer and editor, and Brian Ermold, data ingest manager, receive 2021 Atmospheric Radiation Measurement User Facility Service Awards.

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

Maggie McKeon was honored by fellow coastal and estuarine professionals as the lead author of an outstanding publication in coastal oceanography.

Examining flood occurrences associated with mesoscale convective systems and their characteristics allows researchers to explore climate-flood linkages.

Large ensemble simulations show that aerosols can significantly modify the predictability of hail and precipitation in hailstorms.

PNNL researchers are forming a clearer picture of how plant matter is transformed in the microbial gardens created by leaf-cutter ants.

PNNL researcher Erol Cromwell uses neural networks to elucidate subsurface permeability.

The most polluted U.S. communities from five years ago are still the most polluted today, 50 years after passage of the Clean Air Act amendments of 1970.

A new research partnership between PNNL and the University of Nevada, Reno aims to tackle critical challenges such as climate change, infrastructure resilience and cybersecurity.

Seeking a deeper understanding of when, where, and why large wildfires occur using explainable artificial intelligence.

Urban pollution greatly increases the number of particles over the Amazon, mainly through new particle formation controlled by biogenic gases.

A high-resolution dataset captures a more complete view of the global distribution and characteristics of strong storms called mesoscale convective systems.

Rising greenhouse gases and declining aerosols have triggered an approximate four-day delay in rainfall over tropical land and the Sahel.

PNNL combines AI and cloud computing with damage assessment tool to predict path of wildfires and quickly evaluate the impact of natural disasters, giving first responders an upper hand.

At PNNL, women in engineering tackle some of the world’s most complex problems in environmental science, sustainable energy, and national security.

PNNL provided ultra-low measurements of argon-39 to date groundwater as part of a collaborative study of the aquifer in California’s San Joaquin Valley. PNNL is one of only a few laboratories worldwide with this capability.
