摘要：Imaging spectroscopy is emerging as a critical tool in our ability to move beyond simple detection of changes in cryosphere–climate interactions to attribution of these changes to forcings by changes in greenhouse gases and absorbing impurities (Dozier and others, 2009; Singh and others, 2010). Fresh in the growing literature related to imaging spectroscopy of snow and ice, Singh and others (2010) have explored the impact of dust on the hyperspectral reflectance of snow with the intent of understanding the capacity of imaging spectroscopy to quantify snow properties. The paper reaches relatively robust conclusions about the impact of soil on snow reflectance. As such, the efforts of the authors and the importance of their paper in providing foundational work on imaging spectroscopy of the cryosphere should be appreciated.
