Impact of increased anthropogenic Amazon wildfires on Antarctic Sea ice melt via albedo reduction by Sudip Chakraborty, Maloy Kumar Devnath, Atefeh Jabeli, Chhaya Kulkarni, Gehan Boteju, Jianwu Wang, Vandana P. Janeja

“…Random forest, elastic net regression, and causal discovery analyses show that the shortwave upward radiative flux or the reflected sunlight, temperature, and longwave upward energy from the earth are the most important features that affect sea ice extent. Canonical correlation analysis confirms that aerosol optical depth is negatively correlated with albedo, positively correlated with shortwave energy absorbed at the surface, and negatively correlated with Sea Ice Extent. …”
