Albedo is the reflection of the sun’s light from a surface. Various surfaces reflect and absorb light in different ways. Ice reflects about 85% of light, having a high albedo, while a dense forest reflects only about 15% of light, having a low albedo. Water and soil also have low albedos, absorbing more light energy than they reflect. When warming occurs, ice melts. Meaning that albedo levels decrease and more heat from light is absorbed on Earth. What type of feedback loop does the albedo effect demonstrate? Explain your reasoning.
