Forward-looking information about climate risks is critical for decision makers, but the provision and accuracy of such information is limited. Innovative prediction-market designs could provide a mechanism to enhance applied climate research in an …
Airlines and their customers have an interest in determining fuel- and emissions-minimizing flight segmentation. Starting from Kuchemann's Weight Model and the Breguet Range Equation for cruise-fuel consumption, we build an idealized model of optimal …
Air transport Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions estimates differ greatly, depending on the calculation method employed. Among the IPCC, ICAO, DEFRA, and BrighterPlanet calculation methods, the largest estimate may be up to 4.5 times larger than the …
