Difference between Albedo and Climate change mitigation

Albedo vs. Climate change mitigation

Albedo (albedo, meaning "whiteness") is the measure of the diffuse reflection of solar radiation out of the total solar radiation received by an astronomical body (e.g. a planet like Earth). Climate change mitigation consists of actions to limit the magnitude or rate of long-term climate change.

Similarities between Albedo and Climate change mitigation

Albedo and Climate change mitigation have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Black carbon, Global dimming, Global warming, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Photosynthesis, Sunlight, Weather.

Black carbon

Chemically, black carbon (BC) is a component of fine particulate matter (PM ≤ 2.5 µm in aerodynamic diameter).

Global dimming

Global dimming is the gradual reduction in the amount of global direct irradiance at the Earth's surface that was observed for several decades after the start of systematic measurements in the 1950s.

Global warming

Global warming, also referred to as climate change, is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects.

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a scientific and intergovernmental body under the auspices of the United Nations, set up at the request of member governments, dedicated to the task of providing the world with an objective, scientific view of climate change and its political and economic impacts.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities (energy transformation).

Sunlight

Sunlight is a portion of the electromagnetic radiation given off by the Sun, in particular infrared, visible, and ultraviolet light.

Weather

Weather is the state of the atmosphere, describing for example the degree to which it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy.

Albedo and Climate change mitigation Comparison

Albedo has 100 relations, while Climate change mitigation has 465. As they have in common 7, the Jaccard index is 1.24% = 7 / (100 + 465).
