If you increase the albedo, more solar radiation will be reflected back into space and so the temperature will be lowered.

How does the albedo of a surface change when forests are converted to agricultural fields?

The albedo of a surface typically increases when forests are converted to agricultural fields. Forests have a lower albedo because they absorb more sunlight compared to fields, which reflect more sunlight. This change in albedo can impact the temperature of the area and the climate at large.

How does albedo relate to the study of climate change?

Scientists use the term albedo to define the percentage of solar energy reflected back by a surface. Understanding local, regional, and global albedo effects is critical to predicting global climate change. The following are some of the factors that influence the earth's albedo: Clouds, Surface, Oceans and Forests

Mars has an albedo magnitude of?

The albedo of Mars is .15; you can see the albedo of all of the planets and moons in the solar system at the Nine Planets web site, linked below. "Albedo" is a measure of how reflective a body is. The higher the number, the more reflective the surface. So a high albedo says that a planet or asteroid reflects most of the light that hits it, while a low albedo indicates that most of the light is absorbed. Albedo can make calculations about climate change difficult. A planet with a high albedo reflects much of the Sun's light and heat, causing it not to heat up as much. A low albedo means that all of the solar radiation is absorbed and turned into heat. A warmer world will have less snow and ice cover, and thus a lower albedo, resulting in higher temperatures. On the other hand, a warmer world might have more clouds, which would increase Earth's albedo, reflect more sunlight, and reduce the heating effect. However, clouds also act to trap heat, sort of like a blanket. Whether the albedo effect would offset the "blanket" effect of clouds would depend on the type and height of the clouds and where they are located. Cloud effects are among the most important sources of uncertainty in modeling future climate change.
