Volcanic, Weather and Climate Effects on Air Transport
Volcanic events, weather effects and climate have one thing in common: they require an intelligent air traffic management (ATM) to minimize the impact of volcanic eruptions, weather events and climate effects by proper aircraft operations. This paper presents examples from recent research, including...

| Summary: | Volcanic events, weather effects and climate have one thing in common: they require an intelligent air traffic management (ATM) to minimize the impact of volcanic eruptions, weather events and climate effects by proper aircraft operations. This paper presents examples from recent research, including the impact of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano eruption in Iceland in April 2010 affecting European air space over several weeks time, investigations of weather impact of safety such as from deep convection, and climate impact of aircraft emissions by aviation, in particular from contrails. This paper just provides as short summary of the issues discussed without details, which are described elsewhere. |
