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

Low-albedo Surfaces of Lava Worlds [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 Abstract Hot super-Earths are exoplanets with short orbital periods (<10 days), heated by their host stars to temperatures high enough for their rocky surfaces to become molten. A few hot super-Earths exhibit high geometric albedos (>0.4) in the Kepler band (420–900 nm).

Influence of spatial heterogeneity of local surface albedo on the area-averaged surface albedo retrieved from airborne irradiance measurements [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2013 Spectral airborne upward and downward irradiance measurements are used to derive the area-averaged surface albedo. Real surfaces are not homogeneous in their reflectivity.

SURFACE ALBEDO AND SPECTRAL VARIABILITY OF CERES [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016 ABSTRACT Previous observations suggested that Ceres has active, but possibly sporadic, water outgassing as well as possibly varying spectral characteristics over a timescale of months. We used all available data of Ceres collected in the past three decades from the ground and the Hubble Space Telescope, as well as the newly acquired ...

Remote Sensing, 2023 In polar regions, positive feedback of snow and ice albedo can intensify global warming. While recent significant decreases in Arctic surface ice albedo have drawn considerable attention, Antarctic surface albedo variability remains underexplored.

Downscaling Surface Albedo to Higher Spatial Resolutions With an Image Super-Resolution Approach and PROBA-V Satellite Images [PDF]
, 2023 For bifacial solar photovoltaic panels, surface albedo plays a crucial role in estimating the radiant energy. Since land surfaces are heterogeneous, the actual albedo of the surface where the solar photovoltaic panel is placed can vary widely and its ...

Surface Albedo Assimilation and Its Impact on Surface Radiation Budget in Beijing
Advances in Meteorology, 2020 Surface albedo is a crucial parameter in land surface radiation budget. As bias exists between the model simulated and observed surface albedo, data assimilation is an important method to improve the simulation results.

ALBEDO RETRIEVING FROM DSCOVR/EPIC DATA AND PRELIMINARY VALIDATION [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019 Land surface albedo plays an important role in climate change research. Satellite remote sensing has the characteristic of wide observation range, and it can make repeated observations on the same area.
