Researchers at PNNL devised a new workflow for integrating life cycle analysis into building design, aided by a computational method that adapts existing software to net-zero energy, carbon-negative homes.
GUV can reduce transmission of airborne disease while reducing energy use and carbon emissions. But fulfilling that promise depends on having accurate and verifiable performance data.
The SHASTA program is doing a deep dive on subsurface hydrogen storage in underground caverns, helping to lay the foundation for a robust hydrogen economy.
New methodological approach demonstrates how to assess the economic value, including non-traditional value streams, of converting non-powered dams to hydroelectric facilities.
Students participating in the Public Infrastructure Security Cyber Education System program at the University of Montana recently discovered and appropriately escalated an anomaly that turned out to be a concern.
Researchers used a combination of sophisticated laboratory incubations and field measurements to determine the role of microbial production and consumption of methane in soils with different exposure to tidal inundation
Researchers show that small-scale turbulent fluctuations lead to larger concentrations of cloud droplets than would be possible in conventional models of atmospheric clouds
The world is becoming reliant on increasingly smaller sensors that improve daily life in many ways. A PNNL-led paper takes a closer look at these technologies and their future development for environmental and sensitive species monitoring.
Researchers investigated how stable nanoparticle suspensions form using facet engineering on hematite nanoparticles, demonstrating that controlling the faceting of nanoparticles can effectively maintain particle dispersity.
PNNL is supporting the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate's Chemical Security Analysis Center in improving capabilities to enhance detection and analysis of chemical threats.
There are many ways that researchers at PNNL bring unique perspectives to the field of distributed wind. One is the fact that PNNL's distributed wind projects are all led by women.
Researchers seeking to enhance a climate model’s predictive capability identify parameters that cause the largest sensitivities for several important cloud-related fidelity metrics.
