Managing demand to capacity periods in Air Traffic Management (ATM) can be improved with increased data quality, modeling and information exchange. Current shortfalls in ATM are linked to trajectory uncertainty. Some of this uncertainty is due to the inherent uncertainty in the time required to accomplish basic processes and uncertainty
in physical phenomena, including weather. Other uncertainty may be due to the timing and characteristics of the data provided by air carriers. This historical performance provides a

Lakes play an important role in regulating the greenhouse gases that are important to Earth’s climate. However, human-induced stress and disturbance, exacerbated by a changing climate, have put lakes under an increasing amount of stress. To understand how lakes are changing, it is critical to monitor them, especially those that are ice covered in winter months. It is difficult to make such measurements year-round because of the high cost of installing and maintaining monitoring instruments.
