A study co-led by PNNL and reviewed in Science investigates how nanomaterials—both ancient and modern—cycle through the Earth’s air, water, and land, and calls for a better understanding of how they affect the environment and human health.

Like its namesake, Triton, a Greek god dubbed the herald of the sea, the Triton Initiative aims to deliver messages from the ocean about marine energy and how it affects nearby marine animals.

Study shows that emissions from trans-Arctic shipping could increase clouds, cooling the atmosphere and surface.

A unique strategy sharpens understanding of the behavior and physics within the model’s atmospheric component.

Understanding the functional traits of Arctic and alpine tundra plant communities will enable better model projections of how they transform in warmer conditions.

Sea surface temperatures have less influence on tropical cyclone intensification in the Atlantic than in the Pacific.

Alaska's remote location and vast wilderness contribute both to its beauty and its challenges.

For the first time, researchers have created a gram of yellowcake — a powdered form of uranium used to produce fuel for nuclear power production — using modified acrylic fibers to extract it from seawater.

Partnership to initially focus on energy system reliability, aquatic monitoring, underwater technologies, maritime security.

A new modeling approach shows that the ocean circulation determines the varying rate of global temperature response to carbon dioxide.

Improving the representation of upper-ocean layers in hurricane forecast models enhances their predictive skill.
