RICHLAND, Wash.—A tiny fish-monitoring technology called SHAD-TAG+ developed at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has received a 2025 R&D 100 Award in the IT/Electrical category. In addition to that award, two PNNL …
When people in this community hear the words “radioactive materials,” the Hanford cleanup effort probably comes to mind. But for some researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, working with radioactive materials …
The Science Accurately predicting impacts from storms depends on accurately simulating their growth as a function of atmospheric conditions. Using a model setup like those used for operational forecasting, results show that total storm rainfall over a …
The Science Graphene-like materials have attracted research interest for large-scale hydrogen storage applications because they are lightweight, durable, and scalable. Doping these materials with nitrogen can affect their chemical properties. Researchers …
RICHLAND, Wash.—For the first time in the over 50-year history of the National Environmental Policy Act, federal regulators now have vital information at their fingertips in a single database, thanks to an ambitious project called PermitAI, developed by …
RICHLAND, Wash.—With the particular needs of scientists and engineers in mind, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have co-designed with Micron a new hardware-software architecture purpose-built for science. …
The Science Researchers obtained molecular-level insights into the coordination behavior of sulfate ligands with ytterbium (Yb³⁺) in hydrothermal fluids at elevated temperatures, revealing a temperature-dependent transition from hydration-dominated to …
The Science Recent research at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) demonstrated that nitrogen limitation causes major shifts in metabolic pathways, underscoring the emerging significance of post-translational …
The Science Copper-based catalysts are commonly used for hydrogenating molecules with more reactive bonds, but reaction with less reactive molecules is rare. Researchers investigated the steps of hydrogenation on less reactive olefins with copper hydride ( …
In a bright, open laboratory nestled along Washington State’s Sequim Bay, among rows of glassware filled with seawater and green and purple seaweed, researchers are investigating a new way to produce the critical minerals that are vital to everyday life. …
One year ago, the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL) opened its doors to accelerate the development of energy storage technology. Now, the facility is brimming with energy storage research, from synthesizing new molecules to …
This summer, scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) led discussions on their latest research related to artificial intelligence (AI) and One Health at the Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (HESI) conference. Titled “A Roadmap …
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are frequently involved in communities and groups that accelerate scientific research and development. One such group is the Mathematics Research Communities Program (MRC) funded by the American …
The Science Electric fields that exist within and outside of materials can affect their chemical-physics properties. These properties can be leveraged to enhance catalysis or tune material behavior, but quantifying the fields and their effects is necessary …
The Science Researchers developed a synthesis method to precisely control dopant speciation and clustering in N-containing layered carbon materials. They systematically varied the synthesis conditions of N-doped carbon materials to facilitate or inhibit N …
We are currently witnessing one of the most rapid transformations of our technological landscape—AI is ubiquitous, appearing on our phones, our computers, in the news, and in our conversations with family and friends. The incredible rise of advanced AI …
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) was well represented by mathematician and senior technical adviser Aaron Luttman and science and technology adviser Jonathan Forman at “The Risk Reduction Science and Policy Forum” organized by Johns Hopkins …
