A methodology for in-situ and remote sensing of microphysical and radiative properties of contrails as they evolve into cirrus
Contrails and especially their evolution into cirrus-like clouds are thought to have very important effects on local and global radiation budgets, though are generally not well represented in global climate models. Lack of contrail parameterisations is due to the limited availability of in situ cont...
