The accuracy of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 16-day albedo product (MOD43) is assessed using ground-based albedo observations from automatic weather stations (AWS) over spatially homogeneous snow and semihomogeneous icecovered surfaces on the Greenland ice sheet.

## Abstract Over the ablation period of 2004, daily snow albedo values retrieved from the moderate‐resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) Terra were compared with ground‐based albedo measurements. Two data sets are used for this study. The first data set is from two automatic weather stations
## Abstract This paper reports ground‐based measurements of albedo at two different sites in south‐western Niger: agricultural fallow at the ICRISAT Sahelian Center (ISC), Sadoré, and a type of open natural forest (tiger‐bush), 6 km south‐west of ISC. The vegetative cover at each site consisted of
