Short Courses on TOUGH Starts Next Week!

October 25, 2016

Animation of TOUGH simulation

TOUGH is a suite of codes developed at LBNL for numerical simulation of multi-phase, multi-component fluid flow, heat flow, transport, reactive geochemistry, and geomechanics in porous and fractured geologic media. We offer these short courses to individuals who are interested in learning how to use the codes. The courses contain both lectures and hands-on experience in building and applying numerical models for simple problems.

Newton Nguyen’s Vision Loss Doesn’t Slow Him Down

October 18, 2016

As part of National Disability Employment Awareness Month, Berkeley Lab interviews Newton Nguyen, a research assistant in the Climate and Ecosystem Sciences Division. Diagnosed with a degenerative vision condition when he was five, Newton is legally blind but says his disability has helped him better understand other peoples’ perspectives and broaden his own thinking.

New Technology Helps Pinpoint Sources of Water Contamination

October 5, 2016

Using the award-winning PhyloChip, a credit card-sized device that can detect the presence of more than 60,000 species of bacteria and archaea, a new method was found that was more sensitive than conventional methods at assessing health risks of microbially contaminated water.

Torn and Vaughn Contribute to New Soil Carbon Study

September 23, 2016

Soil excavation

Margaret Torn and Lydia Vaughn (picture not available) of the Climate & Ecosystem Sciences Division contributed to a paper in the journal Science that found that soil will absorb far less atmospheric carbon than expected during the 21st century. The research, led by scientists from UC Irvine, was conducted by adding highly accurate radiocarbon dating…
