Sequencing of microbiome and characterization of metabolome revealed significantly different functions of fine root systems from four temperate tree species in a 26-year-old common garden forest.
Study demonstrates that choosing more accurate numerical process coupling helps improve simulation of dust aerosol life cycle in a global climate model.
Researchers seek to bring down costs, address potential environmental risks and maximize the benefits of harnessing wind energy above the deep waters of the Pacific.
The SHASTA program is doing a deep dive on subsurface hydrogen storage in underground caverns, helping to lay the foundation for a robust hydrogen economy.
Researchers used a combination of sophisticated laboratory incubations and field measurements to determine the role of microbial production and consumption of methane in soils with different exposure to tidal inundation
Researchers show that small-scale turbulent fluctuations lead to larger concentrations of cloud droplets than would be possible in conventional models of atmospheric clouds
The world is becoming reliant on increasingly smaller sensors that improve daily life in many ways. A PNNL-led paper takes a closer look at these technologies and their future development for environmental and sensitive species monitoring.
Scott Baker, the Functional and Systems Biology Group leader at PNNL, has been named to the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering's Class of 2024 Fellows.
Published in Nature Communications, Increased Asian Aerosols Drive a Slowdown of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, identifies the role aerosols over Asia is having on the AMOC, a complex system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean.
Researchers seeking to enhance a climate model’s predictive capability identify parameters that cause the largest sensitivities for several important cloud-related fidelity metrics.
