Scientists at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory extract a foot-long soil core for study through the Molecular Observation Network. Just a single teaspoon of soil contains tens of thousands microbial species. Sorting out the proteins, metabolites, and interactions in the complex environment where soil, plants, and microbes meet results in a tremendous data stream. PNNL's new 400G connection to ESnet will enable even faster data sharing and analysis by collaborators around the nation.
