With projected strong growth in aviation demand and a rising value being placed on environmental quality, there is a compelling need to address the environmental effects Of air transportation. In parallel, the traditional aviation environmental modeling focus on only noise or emissions outputs presents a need to better consider noise, air quality, fuel burn, and greenhouse gas emissions interdependencies and their costs and benefits. The Federal Aviation Administration’s Office of Environment and Energy, in collaboration with Transport Canada and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is developing a comprehensive suite of software tools to facilitate thorough consideration of aviation's environmental effects; this effort is known as the Aviation Environmental Tool Suite. The main goal of this effort is to develop a critically needed ability to characterize and quantify the interdependencies among aviation-related noise and emissions, impacts on health and welfare, and industry and consumer costs, under different policy, technology, operational, and market scenarios.
