1. The albedo-value is used to consider the environmental parameters when calculating the radiation on an inclined plane. It grows with an increasing reflectivity of the sourounding sourface.

Albedo commonly refers to the "whiteness" of a surface, with 0 meaning black and 1 meaning white. A value of 0 means the surface is a "perfect absorber" that absorbs all incoming energy. Absorbed solar energy can be used to heat the surface or, when sea ice is present, melt the surface. A value of 1 means the surface is a "perfect reflector" that reflects all incoming energy.lector" that reflects all incoming energy.
