A distrail splits the outer region of a stratocumulus cloud; remnants of contrail visible, Dortmund, June 2019.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This distrail within the outer regions of a stratocumulus cloud was caused by the jet wake of a low-flying aeroplane. Seen from Aplerbeck, Dortmund, June 2019. The contrail, which is the primary turbulence zone caused by the jet engine, is discernable as a narrow, contorted white vortex just above the lower edge of the transparent wake approximately halfway from centre to top right.
Deutsch: Der vorliegende "Negative (Wolken-)Streifen" im Randbereich einer Stratocumuluswolke wurde von einem auf niedriger Höhe fliegenden Luftfahrzeug verursacht. Beobachtet in Aplerbeck, Dortmund in Juni 2019. Der initiale Kondensstreifen, der vom Triebwerk verursacht wurde, ist hier als schmaler, verdrehter Wirbelstreifen knapp oberhalb des unteren Rands des wolkenfreien Streifens rechts oberhalb der Mitte sichtbar.

Additional Information

[edit]

en: Distrail within the outer regions of a stratocumulus cloud.

  • Image taken at location: Aplerbeck, Dortmund, Germany on June 21st, 2019.
  • Elevation of cloud approx. 2,000 metres.
  • Angle of view: approx. 20° from zenith.
  • Low-flying jet aeroplanes typically cross over on waiting loops before approaching either Dortmund, Münster, or Düsseldorf airport.
  • Due to the the quick response after formation, the high viewing angle, the moderately telescopic lens (135mm), and a quantum of good luck the high-resolution sensor (7952x5304 pixels) could capture not only the distrail in great detail (see Contrail#Distrails), but also a short section of the initial contrail (see active areas within image) before it disappeared behind the edge of the cloud seconds later.

de:

  • Aufnahmeort: Dortmund-Aplerbeck, Deutschland, 21. Juni 2019.
  • Wolkenunterkante geschätzt auf 2.000 Meter.
  • Beobachtungswinkel ca. 20° zum Zenit.
  • Flugzeuge überfliegen Dortmund häufig in niedriger Höhe auf Warteschleife vor dem Anflug auf Dortmund, Münster oder Düsseldorf Flughafen.
  • Nur die Kombination von schneller Reaktion, erhöhtem Aufnahmewinkel mit einem moderaten Teleobjektiv (135 mm) und etwas Glück hat dazu geführt, dass nicht nur der Negative Streifen, sondern auch ein kurzer Abschnitt des auslösenden Kondensstreifens (siehe aktiven Bereich im Bild) in hoher Auflösung (7952x5304 Pixel) abgelichtet wurde, bevor dieser binnen Sekunden hinter dem Wolkenrand verschwand.
