The report assesses the impact of climatic changes which may occur from operation of aircraft in the stratosphere. The effects considered involve the geophysics of the stratosphere and troposphere, the propulsion effulents, the impacts of climatic change on the biosphere, and the economic and social measures of biological climatic change. Included and discussed are remedial measures by which adverse environmental effects may be avoided.
