Cloud cover from linear contrails, cirrus cloud cover, and outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) at top of the atmosphere were derived from MSG SEVIRI in a North Atlantic region (NAR) for a period of eight years (Febr 2004- Jan 2012) with 15 min time resolution. The aviation induced contributions to cir...
