Global indirect aerosol effects: a review (2004, unknown): “Ponater et al. (2002) and Marquart et al. (2003) studied the climate effect of contrails using a global climate model, but so far related the contrail formation only to relative humidity but did not link it to aerosol properties.”
Transport impacts on atmosphere and climate: Aviation (2009, unknown): “, 1999), the most recent parameterizations within GCMs have allowed contrail optical depth to be predicted (Ponater et al., 2002), although some recent studies still prescribe an optical depth (e.”
Global radiative forcing from contrail cirrus (2011, background): “Assuming the scaling coefficient to be spatially and temporally constant, global contrail coverage can be inferre”
