The decrease in the reflectivity of the planet was a big surprise for scientists. This is explained by global warming.
The earth has tarnished in 30 years, scientists from Spain and the United States have determined, writes Forbes.
The reason for this is the decrease in the reflectivity of the planet due to the warming of the oceans and global warming.
“The decrease in reflectivity came as a big surprise to us when we analyzed the data for 3 years after 17 years of relative plateau,” – said one of the study’s authors, Philip Goode of the University of New Jersey.
Scientists have analyzed the data received from satellites, as well as the terrestrial radiance. As a result, they recorded a 0.5% decrease in albedo.
Scientists believe the planet has dimmed due to a decrease in bright clouds reflecting light over the warm part of the Pacific Ocean.
Scientists previously said, what the earth will be like in 500 years.
