Abstract
2012 W. Garfield Weston Fellow, Scott Williamson and colleagues validate satellite-derived albedo measurements across various alpine and arctic land covers.Their validation confirmed that remote albedo measures are well constrained and consistent with other studies. Measurements of albedo vary with land cover type and period of observations.
