“One substance that reduces the albedo of snow very efficiently is black carbon, which is formed by incomplete combustion of biomass, as happened with the Australian bushfires. However, explains Dr Novis, it takes surprisingly little to lower the albedo of snow. The albedo of pure snow is high, with a large proportion of the incoming radiation reflected back, keeping things cool. Image: John Hunt.įundamentally, the project is about albedo: a measure of the amount of solar radiation that is reflected back from the Earth’s surface.
