A growing number of plug-in hybrid electric cars and trucks could require major new power generation resources or none at all? depending on when people recharge their automobiles. A recent Oak Ridge National Laboratory study, featured in the current issue of the ORNL Review examined how an expect...
ORNL's collaborations with DOE's Joint Genome Institute, located in Walnut Creek, Calif., continue. The JGI-led genome analysis of the symbiotic fungus Laccaria bicolor was published in Nature early this month. The Environmental Sciences Division's Jerry Tuskan helped lead the international effort ...
A destructive spring freeze that chilled the eastern United States almost a year ago illustrates the threat a warming climate poses to plants and crops, according to a paper just published in the journal BioScience. The study was led by a team from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
Latin American nations could become important suppliers of ethanol for world markets in coming decades, according to an Oak Ridge National Laboratory study released recently.
The report, "Biofuel Feedstock Assessment for Selected Countries," presents findings from research conducted in support of...
A Knoxville-based Service Disabled and Veteran Owned Business has been awarded a contract to provide office supplies and equipment to the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.A&W Office Supply and ORNL have entered into a two-year agreement that includes four two-year options. ...
Knowing beforehand whether a system for detecting weapons of mass destruction at U.S. ports will be practical and effective can make for smooth sailing. PortSim, a security simulation and visualization tool developed by Dan Koch, does just that by taking away any guesswork for evaluating the operati...
The Department of Energy's Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been confirmed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's most powerful pulsed neutron spallation source. The SNS recently ramped up beam power to more than 300 kilowatts, producing 4.8 x 10e 16 neutr...
Want to sleuth out the secrets to plant behavior? You need a genomic signature, of course. Using the latest tools of genetic analysis, ORNL researchers have developed a way to determine why plants behave the way they do at a molecular level. The technique involves genetically analyzing plants expose...
Wireless systems able to monitor and perform diagnostics on motors used in industrial processes could improve production efficiency by 10 percent to 20 percent, according to Wayne Manges of Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Industrial Technologies Program. "With electric motor-driven systems accountin...
A four-month old guide dog that will hopefully one day assist a blind person is undergoing socialization training during a daily routine at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.Connie Nichols of Oak Ridge's Human Resources Directorate is working with Timmy, a yellow lab, for up ...
