Physically based snow albedo model for calculating broadband albedos and the solar heating profile in snowpack for general circulation models

A physically based snow albedo model (PBSAM), which can be used in a general circulation model, is developed. PBSAM calculates broadband albedos and the solar heating profile in snowpack as functions of snow grain size and concentrations of snow impurities, black carbon and mineral dust, in snow wit...
