Aerosol particles imbue climate models with uncertainty. New work by PNNL researchers reveals where in the world and under what conditions new particles are born.

Beyond melting ice and higher temperatures: On Earth Day, scientists consider how climate change will affect national security.

PNNL researchers have used field campaign data to better understand clouds, aerosols, and the interactions between humans and the atmosphere.

More realistically representing crops and agricultural practices dramatically improves simulations of carbon and energy exchange.

Scientists at PNNL are working to better prepare authorities, emergency responders, communities and the grid in the face of increasingly extreme hurricanes.

An analysis of land use in watersheds that supply drinking water to over a hundred United States cities identified a wide range of exposure to potential contamination.

PNNL experts perform fundamental climate science work at multiple scales to understand impacts on energy, water, food, and infrastructure systems.

PNNL researchers have uncovered a plant-derived process that leads to the formation of aerosol particles over the Amazon rainforest and potentially other forested parts of the world. 

COVID-19 changed when and where we use electricity. Researchers showed that commonly available total demand data masked the actual changes.

To improve the study of human-Earth interactions, a 10-year vision report by the MultiSector Dynamics community of practice encourages the use of emerging human systems datasets, embedded intelligence in modeling, and workforce diversity.
