A contrail cirrus prediction tool

, 2010
An new “Contrail Cirrus Prediction Tool” (CoCiP) has been developed to simulate contrail cirrus resulting from a single flight as well as from a fleet of cruising aircraft, flight by flight, regionally or globally. The method predicts contrail cirrus for

Reduced contrail radiative effect for fleets with low soot and water vapour emissions

Atmospheric Environment: X
Besides the goal of net-zero carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, reducing aviation’s climate impact also involves addressing other forcing effects, particularly radiative forcing from contrails.

Towards determining the efficacy of contrail cirrus [PDF]

, 2020
Contrail cirrus has been emphasized as the largest individual component of aircraft climate impact, yet respective assessments are based mainly on conventional radiative forcing calculations.

OpenContrails: Benchmarking Contrail Detection on GOES-16 ABI

, 2023
Contrails (condensation trails) are line-shaped ice clouds caused by aircraft and are likely the largest contributor of aviation-induced climate change.

Operational differences lead to longer lifetimes of satellite detectable contrails from more fuel efficient aircraft

Environmental Research Letters
Clouds produced by aircraft (known as contrails) contribute over half of the positive radiative forcing from aviation, but the size of this warming effect is highly uncertain. Their radiative effect is highly dependent on the microphysical properties and

Transmission formulation for random stacks of clouds

Meteorologische Zeitschrift
We present a formulation for calculations of photon transmission for random cloud stacks (maximum-random overlap) that can be applied in contrail avoidance experiments, for instance. Other applications are not excluded. In contrail avoidance experiments,

Contrail altitude estimation using GOES-16 ABI data and deep learning [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques
The climate impact of persistent aircraft contrails is currently estimated to be comparable to that due to aviation-emitted CO2. A potential near-term and low-cost mitigation option is contrail avoidance, which involves rerouting aircraft around ice ...
