The global aviation sector contributes approximately 5% of the current anthropogenic radiative forcing, owing to direct emissions of fossil-fuel CO 2 (28 mW m −2 ) and the formation and evolution of contrails and contrail-induced cirrus clouds (50 mW m −2 ). The soot emissions largely determine the number of ice crystals in contrails.
