The lift-generated wake vortices trailing behind an aircraft present a danger to aircraft following the same or nearby path. The degree of hazard to the following aircraft depends on the nature of the wake encountered in its flight path and on the ability of the aircraft to counter its effects. This report describes the current state of understanding of the factors that influence the motion and dissipation of wake vortices. The relationships of these factors to parameters that are measurable through meteorological sensors and from a priori knowledge of the vortex generating aircraft characteristics are discussed as an aid to structuring development plans for the creation of wake vortex advisory products by the Integrated Terminal Weather System (ITWS) and by special wake vortex sensors.
