Contrail formation is a complex process involving the mixing of hot exhaust gases with cold air.

Under certain atmospheric conditions, these wispy trails of condensed water vapor can spread out to form contrail cirrus clouds.

This warming effect is estimated to account for more than half of aviation's total climate impact.

Fangqun Yu , a senior researcher at the University at Albany's Atmospheric Sciences Research Center , has released a paper.
