ICE AND SNOW ALBEDO

Specialty Definition: ICE AND SNOW ALBEDO

DomainDefinition

Weather

The reflectivity of ice and snow-covered surfaces. The albedo of freshly fallen snow may be as much as 90%, while older snow may have values of 75% or less. The larger the areal extent of snow and ice cover, the higher the albedo value. The surface albedo will also increase as a function of the depth of snow cover up to 13 cm and be unaffected by increased snow cover after reaching that depth. (references)
