All the snow last week and the cold air this week is making for some dangerous temperatures.But how can snow, make the cold ...

It's extremely easy to get sunburned while you're skiing and snowboarding in the mountains, but have you ever wondered why?

Azul Pack has developed a new reflective membrane to increase albedo and energy yield in photovoltaic plants with bifacial ...

When you're out in the snow, a lot of the solar radiation your skin receives is reflected from the snow itself ...

Irradiation arriving at the rear side of bifacial modules is mainly determined by albedo, which is the ratio between downward irradiation reaching the ground and the upwelling irradiation ...

Skiers and snowboarders in high-altitude regions face increased risk of sunburn due to high albedo from fresh snow reflecting ...

Researchers at Sandia National Laboratories are taking a closer look at what's causing a decrease in sunlight reflectivity, or albedo, in the Arctic. Watch an animation showing the albedo process.

This greening is primarily driven by climatic changes during summer, although it poses challenges such as reduced albedo (reflectivity) and potential habitat loss[2]. In contrast, studies in High ...

Shallow snow is less reflective. A lot of people want to ski ... lots of Sun coming down from above and high albedo reflecting it back to your face from below. Clouds block sunlight, with only ...

Caption Argonne environmental analyst Hao Cai, environmental scientist Jiali Wang and climate scientist Yan Feng sit in front of a US map that plots the albedo effects observed across various agro ...
