The project is focused on research of contrails in the Czech Republic airspace. Although contrails have a major impact on the state of the atmosphere, there are currently no comprehensive studies about their impact on the environment in the Czech Republic. Statistical surveys of probability of their occurrence, their vertical distribution and correlation with air traffic are needed before establishing their impact on environment. The project will systematically record and store data about air traffic within the airspace of the Czech Republic and also about contrails creation at least for 12 months to cope with static differences caused by annual variations of the tropopause. The advantage of the project is the use of existing facilities for the collection of information about flight operations and the formation of contrails in the airspace of the Czech Republic. The project aims to evaluate the impact of contrails on the environment in the Czech Republic.
