Cleaner Flight
- Submission status
- Open
- Submission deadline
Reducing the impact of aviation on the environment and climate requires insight and analysis to inform the creation and development of less harmful approaches and technologies. The environmental science and aerospace engineering communities should therefore be closely aligned to ensure that future technologies address the most pressing needs without disturbing other environmental systems. With this in mind, Communications Engineering, Communications Earth & Environment, and Scientific Reports are joining together in a call for papers towards a collection on the topic of Cleaner Flight. Our collection will offer insights into the environmental impacts of aviation, along with technological design, operational and infrastructure solutions to mitigate aviation’s future environmental footprint.

Irene Dedoussi, PhD, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands
Dr Irene Dedoussi is an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering of TU Delft, and a Research Affiliate of the Laboratory for Aviation and the Environment at MIT. Her research focuses on the environmental impacts of emissions from aviation and other energy and transportation sectors. Dr Dedoussi’s work aims to help make informed engineering, systems design, and operational and policy choices towards the sustainable growth of these sectors. Dr Dedoussi obtained her PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT. She also holds an SM from MIT, and an MEng (Hons with Distinction) and a BA (Hons) in Engineering from the University of Cambridge.
Sylvia Sullivan, PhD, University of Arizona, USA
Dr Sylvia Sullivan is an Assistant Professor at the University of Arizona in the Department of Chemical & Environmental Engineering and a courtesy appointment in the Department of Hydrology & Atmospheric Science. She received her B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Caltech in 2012 with a minor in Environmental Sciences and her Ph.D. in Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2017 with a minor in Earth & Atmospheric Sciences. She completed postdocs at Columbia University and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology before joining the UA. Dr. Sullivan's research is broadly interested in scale interactions of atmospheric phenomena, particularly the impact of small-scale cloud processes on large-scale variables of social relevance like rainfall intensities and circulation patterns.
