The E-CONTRAIL project concluded on 30 November 2025 , after two years and a half of intense research since its launch in June 2023. We are extremely proud of the progress made in advancing the understanding of contrails and aviation-induced cloudiness , a major and still uncertain contributor to aviation’s non-CO₂ climate impact. Throughout the project, the consortium produced advanced AI detection tools, radiative forcing evaluations, and predictive models. These are key co
