Density Functional Theory calculations are employed to develop a multidimensional volcano surface describing the activity and selectivity of transition metal catalysts for direct H2O2 synthesis.  A region in the plot that optimizes activity and selectivity considerations is identified; this region could serve as a basis for screening of H2O2 catalysts.
