Berkeley Lab Researchers Advance AI-Driven Plant Root Analysis

RhizoNet harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to transform how we study plant roots, offering new insights into root behavior under various environmental conditions. It uses EcoFAB (shown here), a novel hydroponic device that facilitates in-situ plant imaging by offering a detailed view of plant root systems. (Credit: Thor Swift, Berkeley Lab)

DIII-D National Fusion Facility, NERSC, AMCR, and ESnet Collaboration Speeds Nuclear Fusion Research

The Superfacility model connecting DIII-D and NERSC via ESnet enabled DIII-D to send fusion experiment data to NERSC’s Perlmutter supercomputer for large-scale automated analysis and high-fidelity reconstruction of plasma pulses.
