Quantifying spatiotemporal variability of glacier algal blooms and the impact on surface albedo in southwestern Greenland
Albedo reduction due to light-absorbing impurities can substantially enhance ice sheet surface melt by increasing surface absorption of solar energy. Glacier algae have been suggested to play a critical role in darkening the ablation zone in southwestern Greenland. It was very recently found that th...
