Register for the 2022 ESS-DIVE Community Data Workshop to Advance Environmental System Science through Collaborative Data Management

October 26, 2022

From the climate crisis to water insecurity, high-quality, openly available data are needed to solve global environmental challenges. However, important environmental systems science (ESS) data often remains difficult to access, unarchived, or even unusable. To help improve access to and use of ESS data, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) supported the establishment of the…

EESA Geophysicists Explore Landslide Hazard Using Novel Remote-Sensing Approach

October 17, 2022

Torrential rains in Venezuela early last week provoked a devastating landslide, adding to the deluge of stunning climatic events of the past month. With locations around the globe receiving larger amounts of intense rainfall over shorter periods of time under climate change, bigger, costlier landslides that directly impact infrastructure have become more frequent–and urbanization exacerbates…

Berkeley Lab Research Team Identifies Elevated Methane Concentration in Residential Neighborhood

October 5, 2022

SUMMATION–or SUper eMitters of Methane detection using Aircraft, Towers, and Intensive Observational Network–is a Berkeley Lab-led collaborative project with University of California Riverside, Stanford University, Central California Asthma Collaborative and Scientific Aviation. The project goal is to develop a strategy for cost-effective sustained methane monitoring and identify California’s “super emitters” of methane in the Southern…

EESA Scientists Develop New Model to Study Watershed Flow and Chemical Transport

September 27, 2022

Extreme weather, floods, drought, and land-use change are impacting nutrient, element, and water cycling within mountainous watersheds that provide 60-90 percent of the world’s freshwater. Changes in precipitation and snowmelt influence the quantity and timing of water in streams and rivers. However, these changes can also affect water quality because they affect the fate and…

New Nature Geoscience Paper Explores Impact of Fluid Injection on Fault Slip in Soft Rock

August 31, 2022

Scientists have known since the 70s about the possibility that injection of fluids deep into Earth’s subsurface can reactivate a geological fault by increasing pore pressure and consequently reducing stress. The practice has shown since then that injecting large quantities of fluids into deep rock formations has the potential to provoke unwanted fault slip and…
