PNNL's Northwest Regional Technology Center interviews Assistant Chief of Resource Management for Seattle Fire Department Willie Barrington about how his team faced the unknown when the COVID-19 pandemic hit Seattle, Washington.
Researchers at PNNL and the University of Washington examined storms seen by the GPM satellite and found that deep convective storms have been occurring surprisingly frequently at high latitudes during the warm seasons of recent years.
Researchers quantified temperature and gas-cycle responses over time of five simple climate models to impulses of carbon dioxide, methane, and black carbon.
Researchers analyzed the relationship between Earth’s climate sensitivity and historical/future sea level projections, with a particular focus on the high‐impact upper tail.
Corresponding PNNL authors assembled a team of experts to show that supercritical carbon dioxide is a promising media for the construction of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
As author of her first publication, PNNL bioinformaticist Isabelle O’Bryon developed the first forensic proteomics method to more quickly detect ricin, a toxin often crudely made in home laboratories that can kill in trace amounts.
Their consistency and predictability makes tidal energy attractive, not only as a source of electricity but, potentially, as a mechanism to provide reliability and resilience to regional or local power grids.
A team of researchers discovered more about how sea ice in the Southern Ocean might regulate changes in the amount and location of Antarctic precipitation.
Six months into a pandemic that has claimed more than 570,000 lives worldwide, scores of PNNL scientists are engaged in dozens of projects in the fight against COVID-19.
Twelve energy-related technologies developed at PNNL have been selected for additional technology maturation funding to help move them from the laboratory and field tests to the marketplace.
Researchers at PNNL have developed a software tool that helps universities, small business, and corporate developers to design better batteries with new materials that hold more energy.
DOE researchers have developed an infrared nano-imager that may be used to visualize and fingerprint biological molecules in their native liquid environments.
Plant scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have garnered the most comprehensive—and first ever—genetic level dataset of the rooting process in a flowering model grass.
New technique galvanizes iron-based nanoparticles to create an exceptional catalyst. PNNL researchers describe a new technique that produces metal nanoparticles supported on solid iron oxide, in one step, at near room temperature.
Researchers from 25 institutions around the country, including PNNL, are working to find out how exercise changes the molecular makeup of our cells to generate health benefits.
Electrical engineer Nolann Williams supports technical development for DOE-funded projects building marine energy environmental monitoring technologies.
