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

In 2021, airplanes consumed nearly 250 million tons of fuel, equivalent to almost 10.75
exajoules. Anticipated growth in air travel suggests increasing fuel consumption. In January …

Aviation-related aerosol emissions contribute to the formation of contrail cirrus clouds that
can alter upper tropospheric radiation and water budgets, and therefore climate. The …

The climate forcing of contrails and induced-cirrus cloudiness is thought to be comparable to
the cumulative impacts of aviation CO2 emissions. This paper estimates the impact of …

This paper provides an overview of the National Jet Fuels Combustion Program led by the
Federal Aviation Administration, the US Air Force Research Laboratory, and the NASA. The …

Aircraft engines emit particulate matter (PM) that affects the air quality in the vicinity of
airports and contributes to climate change. Nonvolatile PM (nvPM) emissions from aircraft …

Rising fuel costs, an increasing desire to enhance security of energy supply, and potential
environmental benefits have driven research into alternative renewable fuels for commercial …

The use of alternative fuels for aviation is likely to increase due to concerns over fuel
security, price stability, and the sustainability of fuel sources. Concurrent reductions in …

In order to achieve the International Air Transport Association's (IATA) goal of achieving net-
zero emissions in the aviation industry by 2050, there has been a growing emphasis …

We statistically analyze the impact of jet fuel properties on aerosols emitted by the NASA
Douglas DC-8 (Tail No. N817NA) CFM56-2-C1 engines burning 15 different aviation fuels …
