Answer:.
The average global temperature is very sensitive and highly dependent on the planetary albedo. The planetary albedo is also linked to the circulatory strength of the atmosphere and the oceans.
In the polar regions, the albedo is high all through the year. The surface reflection is less than 25% of the local planetary albedo in the regions that are covered by the ice or snow. This surface reflected sunlight causes snow blindness which is known to be a danger to the people living in the Arctic.
In the equatorial regions, there is a large-scale circulation of the atmospheric and oceanic processes. So, there is highly altered planetary albedo structures. However, the albedo values at the equatorial regions are adequate..
