Question

Does Arctic icecap have a high albedo or a low albedo and why

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Fresh snow and snow-covered sea ice may have an albedo higher than 80%, meaning that more than 80% of the suns energy striking the surface is reflected back to space. ... Some of the highly reflective snow and ice in the Arctic starts to melt. This exposes underlying surfaces, which have a much lower albedo
