“..We estimate that present-day non-CO2 aviation emissions with a typical FSC of 600 ppm result in 3597 (95% CI: 1307–5888) annual mortalities globally due to increases in cases of cardiopulmonary disease and lung cancer, resulting from increased surface PM2.5 concentrations. We quantify the global annual mean combined radiative effect (REcomb) of non-CO2 aviation emissions as −13.3mWm−2; from increases in aerosols (direct radiative effect and cloud albedo effect) and tropospheric ozone.”
