Anthropogenic aerosol and cryosphere changes drive Earth’s strong but transient clear-sky hemispheric albedo asymmetry
Climate model simulations indicate that the observed strong clear-sky hemispheric albedo asymmetry is likely a transient feature of Earth’s climate that may diminish with future declines in anthropogenic aerosol emissions and Arctic sea ice.
