Fig. 4: The variations of Critical surface albedo (Critical SA) with Aerosol Optical Depths (AOD) and Single Scattering Albedos (SSA), as well as the distribution of Critical SA in the 60-90oN regions.
From: Surface albedo regulates aerosol direct climate effect
(a) the values of Critical SA across different SSA and AOD intervals, represented by the intersections of the red and black lines in Fig. 3a–d, with colors indicating the numerical values of Critical SA. (b) the geographical distribution of Critical SA in the Arctic region calculated using the CERES data, specifically retaining those grids where the significance level (P-value) is <0.05 and where the AWE is observed. The calculations are based on the clear-sky condition.
