TLDR
In this article, the authors modeled both the net cost and distribution of environmental damages from one year of aviation operations across the three environmental domains, and found that populations living at airport boundaries face damages of $100-400 per person per year from aircraft noise and between $5-16 per person in 2006 dollars.About:

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a multi-scale modeling approach to quantify and monetize the air quality impact of civil aviation emissions, approximating effects of aircraft plume dynamics-related local dispersion (?1 km), near-airport dispersion, regional (?1000 km) and global (?10 000 km) scale chemistry and transport.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of non-CO2 aircraft emissions were examined using a number of advanced climate and atmospheric chemistry transport models under the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Aviation Climate Change Research Initiative (ACCRI).
Journal ArticleDOI
The potential of future aircraft technology for noise and pollutant emissions reduction
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the ACARE and NASA targets for emissions reduction with the benefits available from combining present-day technology with behavioural change, and concluded that significant future gains are achievable, but not to the extent implied by the NASA targets, which represent an unrealistically optimistic view of technological potential.

Living with aircraft noise: Airport proximity, aviation noise and subjective wellbeing in England
Ricky N. Lawton,Daniel Fujiwara +1 more
TL;DR: The authors found no significant association between wellbeing and living within night-time noise contours or living in close airport proximity, and concluded that living under air traffic flight paths has a negative effect on peoples' overall and momentary wellbeing, equivalent to around half the effect of being a smoker.

Global sensitivity indices for nonlinear mathematical models and their Monte Carlo estimates
TL;DR: In this article, global sensitivity indices for rather complex mathematical models can be efficiently computed by Monte Carlo (or quasi-Monte Carlo) methods, which are used for estimating the influence of individual variables or groups of variables on the model output.

Review of the Governing Equations, Computational Algorithms, and Other Components of the Models-3 Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) Modeling System
Daewon W. Byun,Kenneth L. Schere +1 more
TL;DR: The Models-3 CMAQ system as mentioned in this paper is a community multiscale air quality modeling system that includes a meteorological modeling system for the description of atmospheric states and motions, emission models for man-made and natural emissions that are injected into the atmosphere, and a chemistry-transport modelling system for simulation of the chemical transformation and fate.
