Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss has recently increased because of enhanced surface melt and runoff. Since melt is
critically modulated by surface albedo, understanding the processes and feedbacks that alter albedo is a prerequisite for accurately forecasting mass loss. Using satellite imagery, we demonstrate the importance of Greenland’s
seasonally fluctuating snowline, which reduces ice sheet albedo ...
