What is the potential of cropland albedo management in the fight against global warming? A case study based on the use of cover crops

Land cover management in agricultural areas is a powerful tool that could play a role in the mitigation of climate change and the counterbalance of global warming. First, we attempted to quantify the radiative forcing that would increase the surface albedo of croplands in Europe following the inclus...
