Study says planners need to account for climate impacts on renewable energy during capacity development planning to fully understand investment implications to the power sector.
This is a story of how Nikki Sather's career journey studying the pulse of the Pacific Northwest's ecosystems began with a salmon's heartbeat. Sather currently works as an earth scientist at PNNL's Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory.
Niri Govind and Amity Andersen co-hosted a workshop to explain how to use theory and modeling in the interpretation of X-ray absorption spectroscopy data.
PNNL physical oceanographer Maggie McKeon will speak February 3 at the U.S. launch meeting for the United Nations’ Ocean Decade. She will present on improving diversity in the Superfund site workforce.
PNNL has published a report that sets the foundation for modeling gaps and technical challenges in optimizing hydropower operations for both energy production and water management.
California and other areas of the U.S. Southwest may see less future winter precipitation than previously projected by climate models, according to new research that corrects for a long-standing model error: the double-ITCZ bias.
Microbiome and soil chemistry characterization at long-term bioenergy research sites challenges idea that switchgrass increases carbon accrual in surface soils of marginal lands.
The map fills in a portion of the study site missing from sampling studies and enables a better understanding of hydrological dynamics in a complex river corridor.
This committee represents the country’s soil science community in the International Union of Soil Sciences, advises The National Academies, and communicates with professional societies and organizations.
Water and energy researchers are invited to join a new task force as a way to collaborate broadly on the intersection of the two topics. The task force is part of IEEE's Power and Energy Society and was launched by PNNL and UU researchers.
Soil microbial communities produced more water retaining molecules when enriched with insoluble organic carbon, chitin, compared to a soluble carbon source, N-acetylglucosamine.
PNNL has earned “Best Paper” at an international resilience conference for research on hydropower’s capabilities and constraints in the event of extreme events, like hurricanes and rolling blackouts.
