Researchers at PNNL are developing a better model of the soil, better representing the atmosphere, and identifying sources of record high rainfall within a model of the Earth system.

An improved model captures the interactions between the U.S. economy, energy, water, and land systems with increased spatial and temporal detail.

Recalibrating both cloud and subgrid representations improves model projections of the base climate, aerosol-cloud interactions, and cloud feedbacks.

A climate change study co-authored by PNNL scientist Hailong Wang inspired an artist to create an exhibit based on the research.

A newly developed tool helps researchers analyze process-level relationships within atmospheric models.

In an invited review article, PNNL researchers examined the literature surrounding modeling and measuring the ice-nucleating particles that help form clouds.

A novel database of tracked deep convective storms reveals how environmental factors affect storm formation and growth in South America.
