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.

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

For a second year in a row, doctoral intern Jack Watson was awarded the Student Merit Award by the Society for Risk Analysis and the Resilience Analysis Specialty group.

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.

When wildfires burn in the west, the heat and airborne particles they release inflict stronger rain and larger hail upon central states.

Evaluating the relative roles of soil water stress and vapor pressure deficit at limiting canopy conductance in coupled land-atmosphere simulations.

The world's current climate pledges won't limit global warming to 1.5 °C. We will overshoot. A new study shows that more ambitious climate pledges could minimize the overshoot.

Understanding why the westerly jets shift poleward in certain seasons and regions but equatorward in others under global warming.

HiSVSIM enables large-scale quantum simulations through graph partitioning.

PNNL computational neuroscientist Rogene Eichler West honored with the International Society for Neuroregulation & Research Joseph and Ann Marie Horvat Distinguished Service Award.

PNNL joint appointee Auroop Ganguly uses data science to study the impacts of climate change.

Scientists at PNNL are working to better prepare authorities, emergency responders, communities and the grid in the face of increasingly extreme hurricanes.

A new web-based tool provides easy-to-understand progress metrics and other data about groundwater cleanup sites overseen by the DOE Office of Environmental Management.

A new study shows for the first time that wildfires burning in West Coast states can, despite great distance, strengthen storms in downwind states.

Scientists are pioneering approaches in the branch of artificial intelligence known as machine learning to design and train computer software programs that guide the development of new manufacturing processes.

Climate change sets the stage for hurricanes to rapidly intensify faster, bringing wetter storms to the U.S. Atlantic Coast and other coastlines.

Launching a premier partnership, PNNL and the University of Texas El Paso (UTEP) signed a memorandum of agreement on UTEP’s campus on October 6.
