From global issues such as melting permafrost and the creation of alternate biofuels to matters affecting microbiomes and micro-sized life, PNNL research is featured in news publications worldwide.
PNNL is a leader in the integration of aberration-corrected electron microscopy, in-situ techniques, and atom probe tomography to address challenges in nuclear materials, environmental remediation, energy storage, and national security.
The Interfacial Dynamics in Radioactive Environments and Materials (IDREAM) Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) conducts fundamental science to support innovations in retrieving and processing high-level radioactive waste.
PNNL is heavily engaged in the development and use of mass spectrometry technology across its science, energy, and security missions, from fundamental research through mature operational capabilities.
PNNL's River Corridor Hydrobiogeochemistry Scientific Focus Area works to transform understanding of spatial and temporal dynamics in river corridor hydrobiogeochemical functions from molecular reaction to watershed and basin scales.
A software suite for working with neutron activation rates measured in a nuclear fission reactor, an accelerator-based neutron source, or any neutron field to determine the neutron flux spectrum using a generalized least-squares approach.
PNNL researchers developed and manage the online database Tethys to actively collects and curates information on the environmental effects of wind and marine energy.
PNNL creates immersive software experiences to meet a variety of challenges. One such challenge in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education is providing quality computer science education for all students.
