The Electrical Grid Resilience and Assessment System (EGRASS) project at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) not only won a prestigious international R&D 100 Award, but it was also awarded a gold medal in corporate social responsibility for …
RICHLAND, Wash.—Some computing challenges are so big that it’s necessary to go all in. That’s the approach a diverse team of scientists and computing experts led by the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, along with colleagues …
Mengqi Zhao and Chris Vernon both recently started serving in editorial roles at the Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS), Zhao as a topic editor in Earth science and technology, and Vernon on the editorial board as associate editor-in-chief for data …
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) serves as a crucial hub for national energy innovation, as demonstrated by its involvement with three projects supported by the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE). Guam Power Authority (GPA …
Mark Maupin, a computational and data scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was the team lead for a paper published in the journal Molecules. The paper, “ezAlign: A Tool for Converting Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Structures to …
Lauren Charles, chief data scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), has been named an affiliate member of Global One Health Academy (GOHA), a North Carolina State University-based initiative that is focused on combating infectious …
The Science As Arctic sea ice thickness continues to decline due to climate change, scientists expect that oil and gas resources in the offshore areas of this region will soon be more economically accessible. This study used an integrated human-Earth …
The Science Hydropower could expand substantially during the twenty-first century in many regions of the world to meet rising or changing energy demands, from socioeconomic development increasing demand for energy to a transition to low-carbon sources of …
The Science Clouds are one of the most uncertain components in numerical weather prediction and climate models. Mixed-phase clouds (those containing both supercooled liquid water and ice) can be especially challenging to represent. Theory predicts that …
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) chemist John Shilling wears soundproof earmuffs as he sits between freezer-chest-sized scientific instruments in an airplane. The instruments—measuring gas and aerosol particles as the plane navigates the sky— …
RICHLAND, Wash.—Scientists have plumbed the depths of nearly 3,000 soil samples from around the globe to put together the heftiest atlas of soil viruses ever created—more than 600,000 fragments of DNA that are likely viruses. But what are all those viruses …
Before digital computers existed, analog devices were used to assist humans in making calculations, predictions, and measurements. From the ancient Antikythera mechanism used to predict movements of celestial bodies in 200 B.C. to the ‘Brass Brains’ Tide …
The Science The Pangeo-Enabled ESM Pattern Scaling (PEEPS) dataset simplifies and updates the generation of spatial patterns following past efforts to provide an available library of spatial patterns (average global-to-local relationships) of multiple …
Sergei Kalinin, a joint appointee at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, has been selected for the David Adler Lectureship Award in the Field of Materials Physics by the American Physical Society (APS). …
Across the United States, much of the nation’s critical infrastructure—including water treatment plants, shipping ports, freight railyards, and more—are digitizing. Mechanisms that once could be performed manually, such as running a water filtration …
At Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), staff members like Madalina Man are leveraging their legal expertise to address nuclear security technology and policy challenges around the world. Man had the opportunity to share her experiences on a …
Ryan Eddy, director of homeland security programs at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was recognized as one of 50 trailblazers by Homeland Security Today. The award recognizes his long-standing commitment to homeland security, having spent …
One of the most difficult problems with quantum computing relates to increasing the size of the quantum computer. Researchers globally are seeking to solve this “challenge of scale.” To bring quantum scaling closer to reality, researchers from 14 …
Ján Drgoňa, who is a data scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), was featured as a speaker at the Grainger Foundation Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) 2024 Symposium of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). The event was held on …
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) will be embarking on two new materials projects in fusion energy sciences. The support for these projects comes from the Department of Energy’s Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) and Advanced Research Projects Agency– …
