The remote sensing of radiative forcing by light-absorbing particles (LAPs) in seasonal snow over northeastern China

<p>Light-absorbing particles (LAPs) deposited on snow can decrease snow albedo and affect climate through snow-albedo radiative forcing. In this study, we use MODIS observations combined with a snow-albedo model (SNICAR – Snow, Ice, and Aerosol Radiative) and a radiative transfer model (SBDART...
