Accurate simulations of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of snow-
covered forests are crucial for retrieving snow and canopy properties, which affects the …

Daily mean albedo, a crucial variable of the earth radiation budget, is significantly affected
by the diurnal variation of land surface albedo (DVLSA). The DVLSA typically exhibits …

This review comprehensively examines the multifunctional role of forest ecosystems in
climate regulation and the consequential impacts of climate change on these critical biomes …

Helicopter based simultaneous measurements of broadband surface albedo and the
effective leaf area index (LAIeff) were carried out in subarctic area of Finnish Lapland in …

A critical comprehension of the impact of snow cover on urban bidirectional reflectance is
pivotal for precise assessments of energy budgets, radiative forcing, and urban climate …

Snow-covered forests are widely distributed in middle-and high-latitude regions of the
Northern Hemisphere and have significant impacts on global climate change and albedo …

Evapotranspiration (ET) is the major component of the hydrology cycle. Satellites provide a
convenient way for gathering information to estimate regional ET. The most widely applied …

The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered
forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo …

Runoff from agricultural fields can contribute to the degradation of surface waters when not
adequately controlled. Application of manure in the winter is practiced in the upper Midwest …
