Aircraft Cruise Phase Altitude Optimization Considering Contrail Avoidance
Contrails have been suggested as one of the main contributors to aviation-induced climate impact in recent years. To reduce the climate impact of contrails, mitigation policies such as taxation will be necessary in the future to incentivize jet aircraft operators to reduce contrail production. Contr...
