Aviation’s non-CO2 climate effects can efficiently be reduced by operational measures, such as temporal, vertical, or lateral adjustments to the individual flight trajectories. We investigate suitability of these measures under different meteorological boundary conditions combining trajectory and climate impact assessment with a newly defelvoped data set of climate sensitivity grids.
