Ice Nuclei such as Black Carbon Soot can alter the growth of Ice Crystals, especially that of contrail cirrus ice crystals causing its surface to near complete 'splitting' of LWR off the SWR; its surface 'sheer' directing the LWR directly towards earth.

Contrail shadows have always been an area of fascination for me, absolutely mind-blowing; here's someone hang-gliding through a contrail shadow ;) So interested in optical phenomena!, I've been collecting contrail shadow pictures ever since I witnessed my first! So if I was to say ask you what...

Hey berkeman, thanks for the advice ;)

Thank you :) I look forward to formulating some questions! cheers

I'm getting my head around this paper/monograph at the moment that I find highly intriguing and motivational. "On the Life Cycle of Individual Contrails and Contrail Cirrus"
