Varying snow and vegetation signatures of surface-albedo feedback on the Northern Hemisphere land warming

Varying snow and vegetation signatures of surface-albedo feedback on the Northern Hemisphere land warming

Changes in snow and vegetation cover associated with global warming can modify surface albedo (the reflected amount of radiative energy from the sun), therefore modulating the rise of surface temperature that is primarily caused by anthropogenic greenhouse-gases emission. This introduces a series of...
