Changes in cirrus cloudiness and their relationship to contrails
, 2001 Condensation trails, or contrails, formed in the wake of high-altitude aircraft have long been suspected of causing the formation of additional cirrus cloud cover.

Understanding the role of contrails and contrail cirrus in climate change: a global perspective
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsAbstract. Globally, emissions from aviation affect Earth's climate via complex processes. Contrail cirrus and carbon dioxide emissions are the largest factors contributing to aviation's radiative forcing on climate. Contrail cirrus, like natural cirrus clouds, impacts Earth's climate. Even with the extensive ongoing research, the relative importance of

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingAircraft condensation trails (contrails), formed in ice supersaturation regions, are human-induced clouds with significant climate warming effects. Mitigating their climate impact through feasible flight rerouting requires precise contrail detection ...

Day and Night Contrail Climate Impact of Optimised Trajectories
, 2022 Contrail formation is one the largest warming contributions of aviation’s climate impact. Measures to mitigate contrail climate impact include the optimisation of flight trajectories to avoid the formation of warming contrails or to find air space where ...
