The flux of carbon dioxide from forest soil may acclimate to some aspects of climate change.

Identifying links between large-scale and local-scale model biases in tropical precipitation.

Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.

Haewon McJeon will co-edit a special issue of Energy and Climate Change focused on national decarbonization strategies across the globe.

Extreme winter storms are growing wetter and changing shape in the Western United States—such changes could compromise infrastructure designed to withstand only so much water.

Interactive freshwater flux works to prolong density anomalies over deep water formation areas in the North Atlantic.

New PNNL research makes it easier to differentiate between chemical and nuclear explosions.

Abigail Snyder named to international team focused on designing and scoping models for use in large intercomparison project.

The American Geophysical Union will honor Andrew Gettelman at their Fall Meeting as a new Fellow.

Interactions between fronts and the land-sea breeze lead to strong vertical exchange in the northern Gulf of Mexico.

Steven Smith joins an international team that will evaluate current data and identify what should be included for future climate modeling.

PNNL researchers created rugged, adaptable, mass-manufacturable luminescent particle tracers for use in harsh environments.
