Evaluating the climate impact of aviation emission scenarios towards the Paris agreement including COVID-19 effects

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Aviation is an important contributor to the global economy, satisfying society’s mobility needs. It contributes to climate change through CO2 and non-CO2 effects, including contrail-cirrus and ozone formation.

Assessment of the performance of alternative aviation fuel in a modern air-spray combustor (MAC) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Recent concerns over energy security and environmental considerations have highlighted the importance of finding alternative aviation fuels. It is expected that coal and biomass derived fuels will fulfil a substantial part of these energy requirements ...

Aviation contrail climate effects in the North Atlantic from 2016 to 2021

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022
. Around 5 % of anthropogenic radiative forcing (RF) is attributed to aviation CO2 and non-CO2 impacts. This paper quantifies aviation emissions and contrail climate forcing in the North Atlantic, one of the world's busiest air traffic corridors, over 5 ...

Quantifying aviation’s contribution to global warming

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Growth in aviation contributes more to global warming than is generally appreciated because of the mix of climate pollutants it generates. Here, we model the CO2 and non-CO2 effects like nitrogen oxide emissions and contrail formation to analyse aviation’

Aviation Dentistry

open access: yesJOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH, 2014
With the rapid expansion of the airline industry in all sectors, dentists should pay special attention to crews and frequent flyers, due to change of pressure in-flight, that cause different types of oro-facial pain. Aviation dentistry deals with evaluation, principles of prevention, treatment of diseases, disorders or conditions which are related to ...
