Q: What is the relationship between climate change and turbulence?

Arabia Weather - From 1979 to 2020, flight disruptions have increased by 55%, mainly due to climate change. Scientists expect this disturbance to become more frequent, continuous, and severe in the future, as they believe that climate change will cause more turbulence that radar cannot detect.

Some explain this increase in air turbulence by changing wind speeds at high altitudes, resulting from rising temperatures resulting from carbon dioxide emissions, while others believe that the main reason is due to the increase in the number of flights, which makes the sky more crowded and makes it difficult for pilots to avoid air turbulence and maintain... At a safe distance from other aircraft.
