Civil aviation is fast-growing (about+ 5% every year), mainly driven by the developing
economies and globalisation. Its impact on the environment is heavily debated, particularly …

The knowledge of the lightning-induced nitrogen oxides (LNO x) source is important for
understanding and predicting the nitrogen oxides and ozone distributions in the troposphere …

Tentative estimates, using three‐dimensional chemistry and transport models, have
suggested small ozone increases in the upper troposphere resulting from current aircraft …

In this paper we present simulations with a Lagrangian particle dispersion model to study
the intercontinental transport of pollution from North America during an aircraft measurement …

Airborne lidar and in-situ measurements of aerosols and trace gases were performed in
volcanic ash plumes over Europe between Southern Germany and Iceland with the Falcon …

During the 20th century, the world's transportation system has changed dramatically with the
gradual emergence of a large fleet of commercial aircraft. Today, thousands of aircraft carry …

Nitrogen oxides, emitted from air traffic, are of concern due to their impact on climate by
changing atmospheric ozone and methane levels. Using the DLR research aircraft Falcon …

A new photolytic converter for NO2 measurement is described and its performance
assessed using laboratory, ground‐, and aircraft‐based field data. Focusing the output of a …

In the summer of 2004 several separate field programs intensively studied the
photochemical, heterogeneous chemical and radiative environment of the troposphere over …

The series of SULFUR experiments was performed to determine the aerosol particle and
contrail formation properties of aircraft exhaust plumes for different fuel sulfur contents (FSC …
