From page 7...
... The in-use aircraft tests were conducted at various ambient temperatures and included a variety of aircraft engine types and taxiway operational throttle points. The analysis of the naturally diluted plume characterization produces a distribution of emission indices arising from aircraft operating with unknown fuel flow rates.

From page 8...
... Following the description and quantification of the near-idle fuel flow dependence, the data related to the ambient temperature dependence will be discussed.
