Climate impact of aircraft-induced cirrus assessed from satellite observations before and during COVID-19
Aircraft produce condensation trails, which are thought to increase high-level cloudiness under certain conditions. However the magnitude of such an effect and whether this contributes substantially to the radiative forcing due to the aviation sector remain uncertain. The very substantial, near-glob...
