Distributed science is thriving at PNNL, where scientists share data and collaborate with researchers around the world to increase the impact of the work.
From developing new energy storage materials to revealing patterns of Earth’s complex systems, studies led by PNNL researchers are recognized for their innovation and influence.
PNNL researchers have found yet another way to turn trash into treasure: using algal biochar, a waste production from hydrothermal liquefaction, as a supplementary material for cement.
NASA has awarded $2.5 million to the BioS-ENDURES consortium, led by the University of Washington and including WSU and PNNL, to advance space life sciences research supporting human health in space and Earth-based applications.
PNNL's McDearis and Rod designed a new device—a porous soil stake—that, once installed, enables repeated sampling of a specific soil site at multiple depths, without further disrupting the soil.
