Bolometric Hemispherical Albedo Map of Pluto from New Horizons Observations
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 The New Horizons encounter with the Pluto system revealed Pluto to have an extremely spatially variable surface with expansive dark, bright, and intermediate terrains, refractory and volatile ices, and ongoing/recent endogenous and exogenous processes ...

Evaluation of a new snow albedo scheme for the Greenland ice sheet in the Regional Atmospheric Climate Model (RACMO2) [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2020 Snow and ice albedo schemes in present-day climate models often lack a sophisticated radiation penetration scheme and do not explicitly include spectral albedo variations.

A statistics-based temporal filter algorithm to map spatiotemporally continuous shortwave albedo from MODIS data [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Land-surface albedo plays a critical role in the earth's radiant energy budget studies. Satellite remote sensing provides an effective approach to acquire regional and global albedo observations.

Review of Land Surface Albedo: Variance Characteristics, Climate Effect and Management Strategy
Remote Sensing, 2022 Surface albedo plays a controlling role in the surface energy budget, and albedo-induced radiative forcing has a significant impact on climate and environmental change (e.g., global warming, snow and ice melt, soil and vegetation degradation, and urban ...

A Method to Estimate Clear-Sky Albedo of Paddy Rice Fields
Remote Sensing, 2022 As a major crop type in the global agroecosystem, paddy rice fields contribute to global greenhouse gas emissions. Surface albedo plays a vital role in estimating carbon emissions. However, it is difficult to find a broadband albedo estimation over paddy
