Center for Bioenergy Innovation Adds Three New Board Members
Scientists Unveil Least Costly Carbon Capture System to Date
Quantum Researchers Strike the Right Chord with Silicides
Mondragon is an artist who translates frequencies, vibrations, and rhythms into visual works of art, such as a sculpture, paintings or installations.
The new members are Deborah Crawford of UT, Knoxville, Susan Hubbard of ORNL, and Maureen McCann of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
PNNL scientists carve a path to profit from carbon capture through carbon upcycling, unlock crucial step in decarbonization.

As another atmospheric river impacts California on January 4th and 5th -- with more rain forecast after that -- Michael Wehner, a senior scientist in the Computational Research Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, discusses how climate change is increasing the rainfall from these drenching storms and how people can better prepare. Wehner uses observational data and advanced computer modeling to understand the behavior of extreme weather events in a changing climate, especially heat waves, intense precipitation, drought, and tropical cyclones.
