Extreme sea levels will become 100 times more frequent by the end of the century around the world, according to a new study.

Tomorrow’s scientific leaders gain real-world experience contributing to PNNL’s research and development.

PNNL’s Mike Hochella receives Geochemical Society’s Patterson Award and ACS Geochemistry medal for discovery of toxic particles produced during coal combustion.

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

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

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.

PNNL computational scientist Diana Bacon’s role as carbon storage associate editor uses her expertise in subsurface modeling and quantitative risk assessment.

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.

Research shows that previous drought and flooding conditions strongly influence soil respiration and carbon composition.

Principles derived from coastal wetlands to describe wetland channel cross-sections were applicable to the Columbia River estuary, but not the tidal river.

Researchers used deep learning methods to estimate the subsurface permeability of a watershed from stream discharge measurements.

Understanding the fundamental relationships between river flow, water exchange, and nutrient cycling can inform ecosystem effects of river regulation.
