Description

What is Albedo? The Albedo scale is studied and used in multiple fields like astrology and geology. It actually refers to the reflective power of any surface. The term comes from the Latin word for whiteness, and came into use in the field of optics in 1760. The notion is also significant in climate studies, and the idea of global warming. So how is it calculated? Can you give me any other real life examples? That’s all fascinating, but what does it have to do with climate change? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
