Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce a new Special Issue of the journal Sustainability on “Sustainable Air Transport Management and Sustainable Mobility”. Sustainable air transport management and sustainable mobility are key to making air transportation better for the environment and more efficient. Sustainable air transport management works on reducing the environmental impact of flying by using cleaner fuels, new technologies, and better practices. It also focuses on cutting noise from airplanes and making airports more eco-friendly. Moreover, sustainable mobility aims to create transportation systems that are good for the environment and economically sound and, by using smart technology and balancing investments, it also ensures air transportation is safe and supports overall health and long-term sustainability. Ongoing research in sustainable air transport management and sustainable mobility will significantly contribute to the sustainability of the aviation industry.
Sustainable air transport management and sustainable mobility are essential in terms of addressing the environmental and efficiency challenges in the air transportation industry, given that the aviation sector significantly impacts the environment through emissions and noise, necessitating advancements in cleaner technologies and practices. Similarly, sustainable mobility focuses on creating transportation systems that are environmentally friendly and socially equitable. Research in these areas is crucial for reducing carbon footprints, improving operational efficiency, and promoting economic and social well-being.
The aim of this Special Issue is to showcase recent advancements and innovative solutions in sustainable air transport management and sustainable mobility and this focus aligns with the journal's scope of publishing research on sustainability and technological advancements in transportation. This Special Issue will contribute valuable insights and practical solutions to current challenges in the field.
We invite original research articles and critical reviews on topics related, but not limited, to:
- Technological innovations;
- Operational efficiency;
- Sustainable infrastructure;
- Sustainable mobility;
- Smart technology in the aviation sector.
