Albedo is a measure of the reflective quality of a surface, defined as the fraction or percentage of incident light or radiation that is reflected off a surface without being absorbed. It is commonly used in various fields such as astronomy, climatology, and environmental science to describe how much sunlight or radiation is reflected by a planet, moon, or other celestial bodies, as well as by terrestrial surfaces like water bodies, forests, deserts, and urban areas.
