New Study Uncovers Key Error in Climate Models: Earth’s Albedo Overestimated
"But with the new ice reflectivity incorporated into the model, the Greenland Ice Sheet is melting at a rate of about six gigatons more than in older model versions. This is based on albedo measurements that are more consistent with satellite observations."
