A Comprehensive Strategy to Lower Aviation CO2 and non-CO2 Emissions

To achieve the environmental sustainability goals decided by the European Union through FlightPath 2050, EU-funded ClimOP has researched which aspects of aviation operations can be implemented to reduce the climate impact of the aeronautic industry. Specifically, […]

Reducing Aviation’s Climate Impact with In-Flight Measures: ‘Flying low and slow’ and ‘Climate-optimised Intermediate Stop Operations’

2022-10-26T12:16:45+02:00October 26th, 2022|Categories: News|Tags: , , |

Global aviation and its emissions contribute to anthropogenic impact on climate. Carbon dioxide (CO2) has a long-term effect on climate over several decades, with the consequence that the CO2 greenhouse effect is independent of daytime, altitude and weather situation. Unlike non-CO2 emission’s climate impact, CO2 […]

One possibility to reduce the climate impact of aviation is the avoidance of climate-sensitive regions, which is synonymous with climate-optimised flight planning. Those regions can be identified by algorithmic functions for nitrogen oxides (NOx), water vapour (H2O) as well as contrail cirrus, which provide a measure of climate effects associated […]
