Assessing spatio-temporal variability and trends in modelled and measured Greenland Ice Sheet albedo (2000–2013)

Accurate measurements and simulations of Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) surface albedo are essential, given the role of surface albedo in modulating the amount of absorbed solar radiation and meltwater production. In this study, we assess the spatio-temporal variability of GrIS albedo during June, July,...
