Contrails are responsible for a significant proportion of aviation?s climate impact. This paper uses data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts to identify the altitudes and latitudes where formed contrails will not persist. This re...

According to the latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on climate change, aviation contributes to only about 2% to anthropogenic global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, in view of the growing market demand and the dramatic reductions in ot...

The aviation industry has committed to decarbonize its CO2 emissions. However, there has been much less industry focus on its non-CO2 emissions, despite recent studies showing that these account for up to two-thirds of aviation?s climate impact. Parts of...

Saving fuel by splitting a flight mission with an intermediate stop for refuelling is described by the concept of intermediate stop operations. This can also be beneficial to the climate impact of aviation, if the flight level and intermediate stop airpo...

Non-CO2 aircraft emissions are responsible for the majority of aviation?s climate impact, however their precise effect is largely dependent on the environmental conditions of the ambient air in which they are released. Investigating the principal causes ...
