environment specialized反照率效应
the effect produced by the light and heat of the sun being reflected back from surfaces on Earth into the atmosphere
The albedo effect - the reflection of 80% of the sun's heat by the snow and ice - keeps temperatures in the region cool. 反照率效应,即冰雪反射80%的太阳热量,使该地区的温度保持凉爽。
As the ice shelves melt, more trees grow, which might actually make things worse by reducing the albedo effect. 随着冰架融化,更多树木生长,这可能会降低反照率效应,使情况变得更糟。
Thicker clouds add to the albedo effect by sending more of the sun's heat away from the surface of the earth.
The larger a bright surface is, the greater the albedo effect.
The albedo effect impacts our climate in significant ways.
