摘要: |
The effects of aircraft emissions on the current and projected climate of our planet may be the most serious long-term environmental issue facing the aviation industry (IPCC, 1999; Aviation and the Environment - Report to the United States Congress, 2004). However, there are large uncertainties in our present understanding of the magnitude of climate impacts due to aviation emissions. The stated goals of the workshop were to assess and document the present state of knowledge of climatic impacts of aviation; to identify the key underlying uncertainties and gaps in scientific knowledge; to identify ongoing and further research needed and to make prioritized recommendations as to how additional funding may be leveraged to take advantageof other on-going funded research programs; to explore the development of metrics for aviation climate related trade-off issues; and to help focus the scientific community on the aviation-climate change research needs. / Supplementary Notes: See also PB2010-102040. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
