PNNL scientist James Stegen and an international team of collaborators recently published a comprehensive review of variably inundated ecosystems (VIEs).
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.
The demand for energy is growing—and so is the technology supporting it. However, future development of power generation technologies could be affected by a key factor: material supply.
Climate change is bringing more extreme summer weather, from heat waves to hurricanes, that can disrupt the flow of electricity. Here’s how PNNL scientists are working on solutions to protect the nation’s electric grid.
To improve our ability to “see” into the subsurface, scientists need to understand how different mineral surfaces respond to electrical signals at the molecular scale.
Once thought to cover too little of the Earth’s surface to affect climate at larger scales, new work finds that city sprawl does add to global warming—over land, at least.
