Final Progress Report for Collaborative Research: Aging of Black Carbon during Atmospheric Transport: Understanding Results from the DOE’s 2010 CARES and 2012 ClearfLo Campaigns

Over the course of this project, we have analyzed data and samples from the Carbonaceous Aerosol and Radiative Effects Study (CARES) and the Clear air for London (ClearfLo) campaign, as well as conducted or participated in laboratory experiments designed to better understand black carbon mixing state and climate-relevant properties. The laboratory campaigns took place at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Carnegie Mellon University to study various climate-relevant aerosol properties of different sources of soot mixing with secondary organic aerosol precursors. Results from some of these activities were summarized in the previous progress report. This final report presents the manuscripts that have been published (many in the period since the last progress report), lists presentations at different conferences based on grant-related activities, and presents some results that are likely to be submitted for publication in the near future.

Quiet Sonic Booms: A NASA and Industry Progress Report

The purpose of this Oral Presentation is to present a progress report on NASA and Industry efforts related to Quiet Sonic Boom Program activities. This presentation will review changes in aircraft shaping to produce quiet supersonic booms and associated supersonic flight test methods and results. In addition, new flight test profiles have been recently developed that have allowed for the generation of sonic booms of varying intensity. These new flight test profiles have allowed for ground testing of the response of various building structures to sonic booms and the associated public acceptability to various sonic boom intensities. The new flight test profiles and associated ground measurement test methods will be reviewed. Finally, this Oral Presentation will review the International Regulatory requirements that would be involved to change aviation regulation and allow for overland quiet supersonic flight.

Biogas Opportunities Roadmap Progress Report

In support of the Obama Administration's Climate Action Plan, the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and U.S. Department of Agriculture jointly released the Biogas Opportunities Roadmap Progress Report, updating the federal government's progress to reduce methane emissions through biogas systems since the Biogas Opportunities Roadmap was completed by the three agencies in July 2014. The report highlights actions taken, outlines challenges and opportunities, and identifies next steps to the growth of a robust biogas industry.

Base Support Building and Kennedy Athletic, Recreation, and Social Park II SWMU 014 and SWMU 118 PFAS 2023 Site Assessment Progress Report Kennedy Space Center, Florida

This Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Site Assessment Progress Report (SAPR) presents the findings of the 2023 PFAS investigation conducted between October 12, 2022, and January 24, 2024, at the Base Support Building (previously known as the Maintenance and Operation Building), Solid Waste Management Unit (SWMU) 014, and at the Kennedy Athletic, Recreation, and Social (KARS) Park II, (SWMU 118) located within Kennedy Space Center (KSC), Florida. SWMUs 014 and 118 were initially investigated independently; however, the results of the previous investigations indicated a single PFAS groundwater plume covering both SWMUs, so the two sites are being reported together.
