The decreasing albedo of the Zhadang glacier on western Nyainqentanglha and the role of light-absorbing impurities
A large change in albedo has a significant effect on glacier ablation. Atmospheric aerosols–
eg black carbon (BC) and dust–can reduce the albedo of glaciers and thus contribute to their …
