A Multisensor Approach to Global Retrievals of Land Surface Albedo [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Satellite-based retrievals offer the most cost-effective way to comprehensively map the surface albedo of the Earth, a key variable for understanding the dynamics of radiative energy interactions in the atmosphere-surface system. Surface albedo retrievals have commonly been designed separately for each different spaceborne optical imager.

Investigation of Spatial and Temporal Changes in the Land Surface Albedo for the Entire Chinese Territory [PDF]

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
Currently, global climate change (GCC) and the urban heat island (UHI) phenomena are becoming serious problems, partly due to the artificial construction of the land surface.

Combining MODIS and National Land Resource Products to Model Land Cover-Dependent Surface Albedo for Norway [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Surface albedo is an important physical attribute of the climate system and satellite retrievals are useful for understanding how it varies in time and space. Surface albedo is sensitive to land cover and structure, which can vary considerably within the

Remotely Sensed Albedo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Albedo is a known and documented phenomenon, defined as the reflectivity of a surface, i.e., the ratio of reflected light energy to incident light energy.

Quantifying zonal patterns of climate feedbacks and their role in polar amplification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The significant climate warming seen over the 20th century has been largely attributed to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases. Spatial patterns of likely future warming are dependent on patterns of climate feedback, but current understanding of ...

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Land Surface Albedo Retrieval in the Visible Band in Hefei, China, Based on BRDF Archetypes Using FY-2G Satellite Data

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Land surface albedo inversion based on satellite data requires multiple consecutive (generally greater than or equal to 7) observations. Due to weather reasons such as cloud occlusion, it is difficult to obtain sufficient observation data, which leads to

Impact of BRDF Spatiotemporal Smoothing on Land Surface Albedo Estimation

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Surface albedo, as a key parameter determining the partition of solar radiation at the Earth’s surface, has been developed into a satellite-based product from various Earth observation systems to serve numerous global or regional applications. Studies point out that apparent uncertainty can be introduced into albedo retrieval without consideration of ...

Identifying Spatial and Temporal Characteristics of Land Surface Albedo Using GF-1 WFV Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Land surface albedo (LSA) is an important parameter that affects surface–air interactions and controls the surface radiation energy budget. The spatial and temporal variation characteristics of LSA reflect land surface changes and further influence the ...

Estimating of Surface Albedo in Geomorphological Facies of Desert Regions of the Yazd-Ardakan Plain Using Landsat 8 Data [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت بیابان, 2019
Surface albedo is one of the key controlling geophysical parameters in surface energy budget research and environmental and climate studies. As an efficient tool for monitoring earth surfaces, remote sensing is widely used for estimating albedo over ...
