Forecasting contrail climate forcing for flight planning and air traffic management applications: the CocipGrid model in pycontrails 0.51.0

<p>The global annual mean contrail climate forcing may exceed that of aviation's cumulative CO<span class="inline-formula"><sub>2</sub></span> emissions. As only 2 %–3 % of all flights are likely responsible for 80 % of the global annual contrail energy f...
