PNNL is a testbed for the latest research and technologies in marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR)—leveraging the ocean’s strength as a natural carbon sink to address pressing climate concerns.

Research efforts at PNNL to co-locate marine energy with aquaculture developments for more sustainable operations.

PNNL is a leader in multiple areas of shore power and port electrification research related to maritime ports, inland ports, and airports.

RT3D is a software package for simulating three-dimensional, multi-species, reactive transport of chemical compounds (solutes) in groundwater.

PNNL's Ocean Dynamics Modeling group studies coastal processes such as marine-hydrokinetic energy, coastal circulations, storm surge and extreme waves, tsunamis, sediment transport and nutrient-macroalgal dynamics.

PNNL and the United States Geological Survey are partnering to develop a buoy-based radar system capable of measuring bird and bat abundances and behaviors at offshore locations.

The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is developing a Port Electrification Handbook—a reference to aid maritime ports nationwide in their clean energy transition.

RadAnalysis is a software developed by the Department of Energy to assist in the packaging and transportation of radioactive materials. It facilitates compliance with regulations, providing consistency, accuracy, and relevant documentation.

PNNL has developed performance assessment guidance for remediation of volatile contaminants in the vadose zone, inorganic contaminant remediation in the vadose zone, and pump-and-treat of groundwater contaminant plumes.

The Salish Sea Model (SSM) is a predictive coastal ocean model for estuarine research, restoration planning, water-quality management, and climate change response assessment.
