Short summary
Land surface albedo is a key parameter to derive Earth’s surface energy balance. Any changes in the albedo have repercussions in the amount of energy that is retained by the Earth. Fire modifies albedo because it removes vegetation from the land surface; therefore, investigating these changes on a global scale can help to understand the role of fire within the Earth system.
