Soil microbiomes are among the most diverse microbial communities on Earth. They also play an immense role in cycling soil carbon, nitrogen, and other nutrients that underpin the terrestrial food web.

Researchers from PNNL modeled aerosols on a 1-kilometer scale—on par with clouds—for the first time in a global climate model using the new multi-scale modeling framework.

Small increases in irrigated and rainfed crop production across regions where water remains plentiful could help keep food shelves stocked worldwide.

A new data system—gcamdata—with its robust, clear, and easy-to-use application, was developed to be applied to a variety of Global Change Assessment Model scenarios.

Agent-based models of water resource management can include the interaction between human-engineered systems and natural processes

Research software aims to formulate an accurate way to explore feedbacks among socioeconomics, Earth system changes, and crop yield changes

Field campaign data from the U.S. Southern Great Plains are helping to improve model representations of these small yet influential clouds.

Scientists demonstrated a direct link between tropical rainfall intensity and spatial distribution of surface moist entropy.
