In Appreciation of Postdocs
PNNL is honoring its postdoctoral researchers as part of the fourteenth annual National Postdoc Appreciation Week with seven profiles of postdocs from around the Laboratory.
Do Models Produce Consistently Different Outcomes Between Scenarios with Different Land Use Change Patterns?
Testing the assumption that different future socio-economic development patterns, which result in different land-use changes, can be paired with different future climate outcomes for risk assessments in a multi-model framework.
Changes in Land Surface Conditions Displace Modeled Precipitation
Different sources of low-level moisture perturbation can result in differences in the timing and location of a large, modeled storm.
Measuring the Impacts of Arctic Change on Transportation Systems
Climate change and socioeconomic pressures are transforming passenger and freight transportation in the Arctic, producing effects that have yet to be fully understood.
Interactions Among Shallow Cumulus Clouds Reveal Neighboring Cloud Effects
Existing clouds affect the growth of neighboring clouds.
Moisture Sources for Great Lakes Region Precipitation: Climatology and Recent Changes
The Great Plains and Great Lakes regions are the major sources of moisture for the precipitation that falls in the Great Lakes region.
Tracking the Environmental Fate of Radioactive Iodine
A team of researchers at PNNL designed and constructed an atmospheric chamber to simulate the fate of volatile and semivolatile radioisotopes.
Calibrating a Runoff Generation Scheme at Global Scale
A computationally efficient calibration procedure helps constrain simulated runoff in an Earth system model.
Energy Transport in Moist Convection: A New Picture for Shallow Cloud Formation
The complex interactions between the land and atmosphere can affect cloud growth.
