  • Source explains: "Earth’s albedo (reflectivity, in percent), seasonality removed. (Note:) We take the first 10 years of data as the base period (defining the zero point for anomalies) as the longest that avoids intrusion into the time of IMO restrictions on ship emissions. Ten years does a reasonable job of averaging over the solar cycle."
