An Improved Method For Retrieving Land Surface Albedo Over Rugged Terrain
Land surface albedo is a very important parameter, which can be derived from a bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) model with angular integration of BRDF in a particular distribution of downward solar irradiance.

Analysis of Global Land Surface Shortwave Broadband Albedo From Multiple Data Sources
Land surface shortwave albedo plays a central role in global and regional climate modeling. In this study, we analyzed the land surface shortwave broadband albedo from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) from 2000 to 2008.

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

Impact of BRDF Spatiotemporal Smoothing on Land Surface Albedo Estimation
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 ...
