Taiwan has around 200,000 hectares of fallow agricultural land that could be planted with high-albedo crops, such as plants ...
A future space observatory could use exo-eclipses to tease out exomoon populations. If you're like us, you're still coming ...
An early melt can lead to a few issues. Snow has a "high albedo," meaning it reflects a lot of sunlight back into space. When there is no snow, the sunlight is absorbed by the ground. The ground ...
But what if it's not always that simple? A new study by Clark University reveals a hidden factor, the albedo effect, that could turn a well-intended tree-planting project into a climate misstep.
The payload from Saco Middle School, dubbed ALBEDO, will investigate the impact of albedo — the fraction of solar irradiation ...
We normally think of trees as being good for the environment. But in parts of the Midwest and Great Plains, they're heating ...
Topher is the cofounder/CEO of Albedo, the first space company to commercialize the new orbit regime of VLEO (very low earth orbit). Albedo’s satellites will capture imagery at a resolution that today ...
Raging forest fire in Uttarakhand could accelerate Himalayan glacial melt, experts said. More than 1,140 hectares of forest cover has been lost owing ...
With global temperatures continuing to break records in recent years, it’s important to cast an eye towards the future. While efforts to reduce emissions remain in a political quagmire, time is ...
The team used these measurements to calculate the aerosol's influence on each cloud's albedo. They found that aerosol-induced increases in the number of water droplets within clouds led to a ...
Tests conducted by Canadian researchers at the NREL's testing field in Colorado have shown that ground reflectors based on high-density polyethylene can significantly increase bifacial PV plant ...
