The Illumina MiSeq System Sequencer is a high-throughput DNA sequencer machine developed and manufactured by Illumina , and is designed for sequencing data acquisition using synthesis technology to provide an end-to-end solution (cluster generation, amplification, sequencing, and data analysis) in a...
The Phenotypic Response of the Soil Microbiome to Environmental Perturbations Project (Soil Microbiome SFA) at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is a Genomic Sciences Program Science Focus Area (SFA) Project operating under the Environmental Microbiome Science Research Area. The Soil Microbiome...
This project is an interdisciplinary collaboration supported by US DOE Office of Science's Scientific Discovery through Advanced Computing (SciDAC) program. The project addresses a crucial but largely overlooked source of error in the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) and other atmosphere...
The influence of tidal inundation dynamics on below ground carbon pools is poorly understood across coastal terrestrial-aquatic interface (TAI) ecosystems. The dynamic environmental conditions of tidally-influenced landscapes, the chemically complex nature of carbon compounds, the diverse nature of...
Soil microorganisms carry out important processes, including support of plant growth and cycling of carbon and other nutrients. However, the majority of soil microbes have not yet been isolated and their functions are largely unknown. Although metagenomic sequencing reveals microbial identities and...
The PNNL-SERDP database was constructed by PNNL to generate the quantitative infrared spectra of gases associated with biomass burning; the reference data are to allow detection and quantification of such gases via infrared absorption spectroscopy. Candidates for the database were selected based on...
Recent studies have shown that reducing the precision of floating‐point calculations in an atmospheric model can improve the model's computational performance without affecting model fidelity, but code changes are needed to accommodate lower precision or to prevent undue round‐off error. For complex...
We report the construction of a database of infrared spectra aimed at detecting the gases emitted by biomass burning. The project uses many of the methods of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) infrared database, but the selection of the species and special experimental considerations...
