Tennessee State University received Department of Energy funding to establish an academy focused on preparing students and professionals to work in an emerging field: clean energy systems. PNNL is helping with that effort and others.
Study demonstrates that choosing more accurate numerical process coupling helps improve simulation of dust aerosol life cycle in a global climate model.
Researchers at PNNL devised a new workflow for integrating life cycle analysis into building design, aided by a computational method that adapts existing software to net-zero energy, carbon-negative homes.
GUV can reduce transmission of airborne disease while reducing energy use and carbon emissions. But fulfilling that promise depends on having accurate and verifiable performance data.
The next-generation ShAPE machine has arrived at PNNL, where it will help prove the mettle of the ShAPE extrusion technique. ShAPE 2 is designed to allow researchers to produce larger, more complex extrusions.
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.
Researchers from PNNL have been assessing installation and use of electric heat pumps in an Alaskan community that relies on fuel oil for heat. The resulting information could advance electrification in cold rural areas across the nation.
Researchers show that small-scale turbulent fluctuations lead to larger concentrations of cloud droplets than would be possible in conventional models of atmospheric clouds
Researchers seeking to enhance a climate model’s predictive capability identify parameters that cause the largest sensitivities for several important cloud-related fidelity metrics.
Researchers developed a groundbreaking database that includes 40,000 synthetic tropical cyclones, crafted using the Risk Analysis Framework for Tropical Cyclones and pioneering the application of advanced artificial intelligence.
Researchers developed a natural gas trade infrastructure capability within a computer planning model that includes representations of energy, agriculture and land use, economy, water, and climate systems in 32 regions of the world.
Streamflow variability plays a crucial role in shaping the dynamics and sustainability of Earth's ecosystems, which can be simulated and projected by ESMs. However, the simulation of streamflow is subject to considerable uncertainties.
