Arctic ice grows darker and less reflective

New Scientist: SUMMER was once an important time for reflection in the Arctic. Perhaps not for much longer: the Arctic Ocean now reflects 15 per cent less sunlight than it did 30 years ago. Aku Riihelä of the Finnish Meteorological Institute and his colleagues looked at satellite measurements of reflectivity, or albedo, between 1982 and 2009 (Nature Climate Change, doi.org/nct). He says the darkening is partly due to thinning ice and the formation of fissures, and partly because in the warmer air, ponds of liquid...

Arctic ice grows darker and less reflective

New Scientist: Arctic ice is losing its reflective sheen. It's common knowledge that each summer, more and more of the ice melts leaving the dark waters of the ocean uncovered a process that accelerates global warming by reducing the amount of solar radiation reflected back into space. Now it turns out that the surviving sea ice is also becoming darker and less reflective. For the first time, a detailed analysis of 30 years of satellite data for the Arctic Ocean has quantified how much the albedo, or reflectivity,...

Reflective PCT Grades meet requirements for LED lighting.
2013-02-12 14:31:32| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Thermx® LED 0201 and 0201S are fiber-filled, super-white polycyclohexylene-dimethylene terephthalate (PCT) compounds formulated to withstand LED requirements for reflector resins with regard to heat and light stability. While Thermx LED 0201 targets cost-effective LED lighting, Thermx LED 0201S serves more demanding applications such as flat panel screens. Initial reflectance and reflectance stability meet needs of LED packages used in display backlight and general lighting applications. This story is related to the following:Compounds
