Demonstrated feasibility of ISSR animations by using publicly available data to identify current and future locations of ISSR. Animations can show not only where ISSR are but can help predict future locations. This can be of use when planning flight paths 6 or 12 hr in future. Future Work understand the tradeoff between additional CO2 emissions persistent contrails to minimize net radiative forcing This tradeoff is complicated by the fact that CO2 emissions effect global warming in 20–40 years, while radiative forcing has an instantaneous effect. Also additional analysis is required to address concerns on a concentration of flights on limited flight levels increasing traffic density. Understand relationship to Jetstream.
