Findings show method to better prepare human lung tissue for study; it represents the latest mass spectrometry-based omics advances.

New research findings published in Science Advances (November 2022), help explain the progression of Alzheimer-related dementia in each patient. The findings outline a biological classification system that predicts disease severity.

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

Silicone wristbands could be more convenient option for collecting exposure data.

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

Secondary organic aerosol formation from monoterpenes is more strongly influenced by oxidant and monoterpene structure than by nitric oxides and hydroperoxy radical concentrations.

The presence of mMarine microorganisms may enhance cloud droplet formation, leading to brighter clouds that reflect more sunlight.

Repeated aircraft measurements over central Oklahoma allow researchers to better understand the spatial variability of aerosol properties that affect cloud evolution.

We are pleased to welcome 20 new joint appointees to PNNL.

Aerosols from sea-spray that are transported by atmospheric rivers enhance snow precipitation in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

The Earth system model aerosol-cloud diagnostics package version 1 uses aircraft, ship, and surface measurements to evaluate simulated aerosols in an Earth system model.
