Researchers Points out Rapid Surge in Global Temperature Could be Due to Reduced Planetary Albedo
- Friday December 6, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In a study by the Alfred Wegener Institute, scientists identified a sharp drop in planetary albedo as a primary factor in the 2023 temperature rise. This decline, particularly in low-altitude clouds, has been linked to a 0.23°C increase in global mean temperature. The study highlights that global warming itself may be reducing cloud cover, suggest...
