Snow-albedo Feedback

Snow-Albedo Feedback is a climate feedback mechanism whereby changes in snow cover alter surface albedo, leading to differential absorption of solar radiation and subsequent temperature changes that further modify snow cover, thereby amplifying or damping the initial climate perturbation.
