Abstract:

The goal of this study was to provide installation-level environmental staff with scientifically validated information for developing dust emission inventories, environmental assessments, and cost-effective dust control measures that are compatible with mission readiness. Source sampling, laboratory analysis of these samples, development of advanced sample analysis techniques, theoretical modeling, and measurement of field emissions and receptor site particulate samples constituted the major components of this study.
