Shortwave Cloud Feedback

Shortwave Cloud Feedback is a radiative feedback mechanism in climate science whereby changes in cloud properties, such as albedo and coverage, modulate the reflection of incoming solar radiation, thereby altering the Earth's energy balance in response to atmospheric warming.
