Jet Contrails Can Affect Air Temperatures in Some Areas, Study Shows

2015-06-19 19:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Yale Environment 360: Jet contrails can mimic the weather impact of clouds and significantly affect daytime and nighttime air temperature swings by up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit in some locales researchers from Penn State have shown. Data from the three days following September 11, 2001, when air travel was highly restricted, had shown that jet contrails thin clouds composed of ice crystals condensed from an aircraft's exhaust likely had an effect on air temperatures. To study the issue over a longer time period,...

Jet contrails affect surface temperatures

2015-06-18 23:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

ScienceDaily: High in the sky where the cirrus ice crystal clouds form, jet contrails draw their crisscross patterns. Now researchers have found that these elevated ice cloud trails can influence temperatures on the ground and affect local climate, according to a team of Penn State geographers. "Research done regarding September 2001, during the three days following 9-11 when no commercial jets were in the sky, suggested that contrails had an effect," said Andrew M. Carleton, professor of geography. "But that...
