| Abstract | Recent work by researchers at Stanford University showed potentially large impacts on Arctic temperature increases due to aircraft over-flights. The FAA’s Office of Environment and Energy tasked the Volpe Center, the MITRE Corporation, and Stanford with conducting an analysis of potential impacts of re-routing aircraft away from the Arctic region. This report discusses the methods used in developing the alternative cases used in the analysis. This report also presents the primary fuel consumption and oxides of Nitrogen emissions for the major Origin-Destination city pairs, airlines, and aircraft types identified in MITRE’s analysis. |
