Physicist Emily Mace will share her science journey and an interactive presentation about her current research with middle school and high school students from across the country at the National Science Bowl.

New PNNL research makes it easier to differentiate between chemical and nuclear explosions.

A review article examines a decade of work on the atom-scale process of turning carbon dioxide into stable minerals.

Some rocks can potentially convert injected carbon dioxide into more stable solid minerals. A new review article explores what scientists know about the atom-by-atom process.

Biochemical preservation and mineral association retain carbon in grassland soils, resulting in consistent molecular composition across ecosystems.

Across the United States, water moving between the river and riverbed sediments does not overcome localized processes that govern organic matter chemistry.

A new study shows how organic molecules respond to global change varies according to functional traits and ecological processes.

A novel combination of temperature and four-dimensional geophysical sensors revealed otherwise unseeable hydrologic dynamics below riverbed sediments.

ICON science is a Department of Energy-developed framework to enhance scientific outcomes via more intentional design of research efforts across all domains of science.

New data analysis approach gives researchers deeper understanding of microbial ecology and evolution.

Members of a geothermal energy collaboration go deep—real deep—to install a first-of-its kind system for evaluating interactions among water and rock.

Improving predictability of water quality and nutrient cycling in large river systems.

Developing conceptual models for microbial-environmental–ecosystem interactions is key to enhancing the ability of models to predict future ecosystem function.

Research from the PNNL-led WHONDRS consortium reveals chemistry and spatial gradients of metabolomes from river water and sediments around the globe.

A team led by researchers at PNNL demonstrated a new way to monitor deep subsurface fractures.

The newly created ICON Science Cooperative is a resource enabling an innovative approach to science to generate transferable knowledge and increase equity.

Detailed characterization of molecules in, under, and along the Columbia River reveal potential mechanisms for biogeochemical cycling.

PNNL provided ultra-low measurements of argon-39 to date groundwater as part of a collaborative study of the aquifer in California’s San Joaquin Valley. PNNL is one of only a few laboratories worldwide with this capability.

Researchers used deep learning methods to estimate the subsurface permeability of a watershed from stream discharge measurements.

High school students from across Washington State competed in the Pacific Northwest Regional Science Bowl, hosted online by PNNL, for a chance to advance to the national competition in May.
