Radiative forcing bias of simulated surface albedo modifications linked to forest cover changes at northern latitudes

In the presence of snow, the bias in the prediction of surface albedo by many climate models remains difficult to correct due to the difficulties of separating the albedo parameterizations from those describing snow and vegetation cover and structure. This can be overcome by extracting the albedo pa...
