Synopsis

This study provides new insights into aircraft plume behavior that greatly surpasses historic understanding, and data for more accurate modeling of plume rise and spread from commercial aircraft at airports. This final report completes individual analysis of the LAX data set, initially reported in the related Preliminary Report published in September 2002. Additional studies are planned (based on available funding) to analyze potential changes in the derived parameters due to site characteristics (e.g., elevation, weather conditions) and will be reported on as the work continues.
