Modeling the Whole Earth
Researchers at PNNL are developing a better model of the soil, better representing the atmosphere, and identifying sources of record high rainfall within a model of the Earth system.
PNNL’s Climate Research Inspires Artist
A climate change study co-authored by PNNL scientist Hailong Wang inspired an artist to create an exhibit based on the research.
Earth Scientist and Materials Scientist Joint Appointee Receive DOE Early Career Research Awards
A PNNL scientist and an Oregon State University faculty member with a PNNL joint appointment were named recipients.
Soot Emissions Increase El Niño/La Niña Extremes
A study led by PNNL scientists reveals the influence of Arctic and midlatitude black carbon—or soot particles—on the frequency of extreme El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events.
Hot, Humid Extremes Linked More to Moisture than Dry Heat
This study explores the relative role of temperature and humidity in extreme wet-bulb events and spurs further research into how these factors may change the frequency and intensity of life-threatening events in the future.
