The agency found that the freshest, lightest snow with the smallest snowflake grain size was the most reflective of sunlight bouncing back off it. Older snow tended to lose its granularity and also, the ESA found, its reflective quality, giving off a duller reflection or lower ‘albedo’ – a measure of the amount of radiation that is reflected back toward space from the Earth’s surface.
