Albedo is a technical term for the fraction of incident light or radiation that is reflected by a surface, or, in astronomy, the measure of a body’s reflectivity. It is commonly used in physics, planetary science, and climate studies to describe how much light is bounced off rather than absorbed. The term can also appear in broader discussions of energy balance and surface properties.
