Information related to the tenth meeting of the committee on
Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP/10)
Montreal, Canada, 1 to 12 February 2016
The CAEP/10 meeting will consider current work and final deliverables on tasks related to the following items.
Present and future impact of
aircraft noise and emissions
Noise, Particulate Matter (PM), and Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) trends projections, for various scenarios which consider technology and operational improvements.
CO2 emissions trends projections for various scenarios which consider technology, operational improvements and alternative fuels life-cycle.
