Effect of Albedo Royal Meteorological Society UK, Weather and Climate
Infra-Red radiation e.g. a low energy lightbulb. Albedo - The albedo is a measure of the proportion of electromagnetic radiation that ... As the albedo of the Earth changes due to changing climate (e.g. ice melting, changes in the amount of level of cloud cover) this will have a positive or negative feedback on the temperature of the atmosphere. Typical values of the albedo ...
