The rapid growth of global aviation operations has made its negative environmental impact
an international concern. Accurate modeling of aircraft fuel burn, emissions, and noise is the …

Several countries have considered banning or even decided to ban or tax super short-haul
flights, arguing that the availability of rail alternatives makes them unnecessary. Such …

Aviation emissions that are dispersed into the Earth's atmosphere affect the climate and air
pollution, with significant spatiotemporal variation owing to heterogeneous aircraft activity. In …

We studied a network of commuter flights in Europe (< 300 n-miles). The analysis of the
network identified several connections with very short flights (100–150 n-miles) for which …

Aviation emissions that are dispersed into the Earth's atmosphere affect the climate and air
pollution, with significant spatiotemporal variation owing to heterogeneous aircraft activity. In …

Emissions from aviation contribute increasingly to both air pollution and climate change.
Understanding how these emissions are distributed across regions, seasons, and different …

Aviation is a growing source of atmospheric emissions impacting the Earth's climate and air
quality. Comprehensive assessments of the environmental impact of this industry require up …

Massive amounts of highly time-resolved and freely available flight tracking data are fed into
a modelling tool previously devised by the authors, which was improved to perform optimal …

This study is focused on the development of longitudinal aerodynamic models for steady
flight conditions. While several commercial solvers are available for this type of work, we …

Sightseeing air tours have proven to be a challenging management issue for many tourist
destinations around the world, especially at locations meant to protect natural and cultural …
