The Earth is reflecting less and less sunlight, study reveals
The Earth became darker from 2001 to 2024, meaning it reflects less sunlight, a research team reports in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The development is more pronounced in the northern hemisphere than in the southern half of the planet, the study published on Monday revealed.
A team led by Norman Loeb from NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton in the U.S. state of Virginia discovered this previously unknown inequality between the northern and southern hemispheres after analyzing satellite data.
