Difference between Albedo and Diffuse reflection

Albedo vs. Diffuse reflection

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). Diffuse reflection is the reflection of light or other waves or particles from a surface such that a ray incident on the surface is scattered at many angles rather than at just one angle as in the case of specular reflection.

Similarities between Albedo and Diffuse reflection

Albedo and Diffuse reflection have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Radiation, Reflectance, Refractive index, Specular reflection.

Radiation

In physics, radiation is the emission or transmission of energy in the form of waves or particles through space or through a material medium.

Reflectance

Reflectance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in reflecting radiant energy.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Specular reflection

Specular reflection, also known as regular reflection, is the mirror-like reflection of waves, such as light, from a surface.
