Rao, P.V. (author), Yin, F. (author), Grewe, V. (author), Yamashita, Hiroshi (author), Jöckel, Patrick (author), Matthes, Sigrun (author), Mertens, Mariano (author), Frömming, Christine (author)One possibility to reduce the climate impact of aviation is the avoidance of climate-sensitive regions, which is synonymous with climate-optimised flight planning. Those regions can be identified by algorithmic Climate Change Functions (aCCFs) for nitrogen oxides (NOx), water vapour (H2O) as well as contrail cirrus, which provide a measure of...journal article 2022

Niklaβ, Malte (author), Grewe, V. (author), Gollnick, Volker (author), Dahlmann, Katrin (author)Approximately 50–75% of aviation's climate impact is caused by non-CO<sub>2</sub> effects, like the production of ozone and the formation of contrail cirrus clouds, which can be effectively prevented by re-routing flights around highly climate-sensitive areas. Here, we discuss options how to incentivize re-routing approaches and apply...journal article 2021

(author), Wolfermann, A. (author), Kampffmeyer, T. (author), Friedrich, R (author), Klötzke, M. (author), Kugler, U. (author)Although climate change is a global problem, specific mitigation measures are frequently applied on regional or national scales only. This is the case in particular for measures to reduce the emissions of land-based transport, which is largely characterized by regional or national systems with independent infrastructure, organization, and...journal article 2017
