Pleistocene Park: the restoration of steppes as a tool to mitigate climate change through albedo effectNikita Zimov
Drylands represent the planet’s largest terrestrial biome and evidence suggests these landscapes have large potential for creating feedbacks to future climate. Recent studies also indicate that dryland ecosystems are responding markedly to climate change. Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) ‒ soil surfac...

The melting of glaciers and ice sheets is nowadays considered a symbol of climate change. Many complex mechanisms are involved in the melting of ice, and, among these processes, surface darkening due to organic material on bare ice has recently received
The scientists say this pattern is consistent with a climate process known as the ice-albedo feedback. 科学家认为这种模式,与被称为冰反射率回馈( ice-albedo feedback)的气候变化过程的原理一致。 When ice melts and disappears this "albedo" effect is lessened, contributing to a rise in temperature...

The feedback has a 95% confidence interval of 0.33–0.77 Wm−2K−1 supporting previous work that finds that ice sheet-albedo change has an amplifying effect. Furthermore, we find that the inclusion of the ice sheet-albedo feedback increases the total climate feedback parameter by ...
(that is, lower on a negative scale) for site classes with lower productivity. This is because the longer a forest takes to regrow the more sustained is the post-harvest change in surface albedo over time, because the snow-masking effect of canopy closure is delayed if compared to a high...
