Original Note:
The claim that climate change is making turbulence worse or more frequent is based on a computer model of conditions sometimes associated with turbulence https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2023GL103814 Real world analysis by the NTSB has found “no clear trend” in turbulence encounters/injuries (figure 5, page 15) https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/safety-studies/Documents/SS2101.pdf
